Main hoon tera geet gori

“Mahua” (1969) was a reincarnation story and quite an ambitious one at that. Here the hero and heroine undergo not one, but two reincarnations each. It is obviously difficult to keep track of the comlicated plot, not just for the moviegoers, for for the moviemakers too. So the end result was a confused and confusing movie that duly flopped at the box office.

Recently I wrote up a 1970s song here and today I’m presenting another 1970s song.
I know that by the standards of this blog, the 1970s is a fairly recent decade. Most of the songs here are from an earlier period – and I love this because it gives me an opportunity to listen to, and learn about, so many forgotten gems of an earlier era. I will never forget the thrill I got when I heard “halla gulla lai la (Dholak – 1951)” for the first time – it has since become one of my FAVOURITE songs! Actually I’d always been interested in old songs but thanks to the internet and this blog, my interest has not only been encouraged, it has also been sharpened in the last few years.

I had neither heard this song nor the name of the movie this song is from. Name of the movie is “Road No 303” (1960). YT, whose information is always required to be taken with a pinch of salt, mentions the year as 1963. This B grade movie was a Mahesh Pictures production and it was directed by Dharmesh Kumar. The movie had Mehmood, Shubha Khote,Bhagwan, Helen, Tiwari, K. N. Singh,etc in it. I found that the year of release of this song is variously shown as 1959, 1960 and 1963.

One of the advantages of living through a period (as opposed to reading or hearing about it second-hand) is that you have your own experiences of it that nothing else can quite substitute for. Of course, events may be recorded very accurately for posterity so that future generations get an idea of the past. But it is still not the same thing.

Maybe the friends on this blog have given up on me, if my inconsistency of the past few days, some weeks is any evidence. Well yes, the things are kind of busy in life at this time (now why should that be an excuse?) :). Nonetheless, today I do want to write about a wonderful song I came across for the first time last week, and also write about where I am and of the interesting things that have happened today.
