The Voice of Mukesh #2
——————————–
Listening to the first song of Mukesh, ‘Dil Hi Bujhaa Huaa Ho To Fasl e Bahaar Kyaa’ from the film ‘Nirdosh’ (1941), one is suitably impressed by this maiden effort from a singer, whom we now know as a stalwart of the Hindi film music. But back then in 1941, this debut happened singularly unacknowledged, failing to impress the public, the music directors and film producers. With Saigal Saab’s voice reigning supreme at that time, most people wrote off this voice as another Saigal imitator, trying to make it good with a voice sounding like the great icon. And what with the icon still in full bloom and alive, this song by Mukesh failed to evoke any great level of interest. And so started the career of Mukesh, unimpressive and indifferent.

Today (16 october) is the 64th birthday of Hema Malini. She ruled the roost in 1970s. So much so that she was described as dream girl by the media. To capitalise on this sobriquet, Pramod Chakraborty actually made a movie called “Dream Girl” (1977) signing up Hema Malini and Dharmendra.

October seems to be the month of birthdays for all who made it a habit to entertain us. We have already celebrated Vinod Khanna’s birthday. Next was the turn of Rekha who shares her birhday with S.D.Burman. Then we have the Superstar of the millennium (as the media went overboard describing him) Amitabh Bachchan followed by the grand old man of Hindi movies Ashok Kumar who shares it with Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan. Then the list will have Nirupa Roy (everyone’s Mom or Ashok Kumar’s heroine as you may choose to remember her). And going by the list which Atul has compiled with the list sent by our in-house encyclopedia Arunkumar Deshmukhji and lots of inputs from Khyatiji and Prakashchandraji we will be celebrating a lot of birthdays in the days to come.

Today (11 October) is the 70th birth anniversary of Amitabh Bachchan. He was born this day in 1942.
Today he is a well established legend, but his beginnings were quite shaky and uninspiring. In fact, he had delivered a string of flop movies and he was on the verge of packing up and going back when “Zanjeer” (1973) was released and it became a hit. And after that Amitabh Bachchan did not have to look back.
