Hullo Atuldom

Wishing our guiding force; ex-Ranchiwala now-Bhopali Gaanewala, usually addressed as Atulji by the followers of ASAD (acronym for atulsongaday) A Very Happy Birthday. I thank him (as always) for providing us this platform where “birds of a feather flock together”. What started as a place for one post (not necessarily one song though, as some posts contain all versions of a song) a day had become a multi-post per day blog after the initial few months of its journey. May today and all of your days be creative and innovative.

The ‘parallel cinema’ refers to films which have been made as the alternative to the mainstream commercial films. Shabana Azmi and Smita Patil are regarded as the ‘parallel cinema stars’ because they mostly worked in woman-centric parallel films and most of their such films like ‘Ankur’ (1974), ‘Nishant’ (1975), ‘Manthan’ (1976), ‘Bhumika’ (1977), ’Arth’ (1982) etc were box office success. Shabana Azmi, with the success of her very first parallel film, started acting in the mainstream commercial films with ‘Fakira’ (1976) in a lead role. Smita Patil on the other hand kept herself aloof from mainstream commercial films until 1981. What led her to sign mainstream commercial films from 1981 onwards?

Pancham’s Music – Eighties (1981-1990) Part-2 –post-2 (1982)

In this post I am presenting a wonderful Pancham song from the movie ‘Ye Vaadaa Rahaa-1982’. I vaguely remember to have watched this movie during the weekly screening of movies in our colony club during 1982-1983. The year 1982-1983 was the academic year of class Xth for me, which means I would be appearing for board exams in the month of March-1983. I was above fourteen years of age when I would have watched this movie. So that was a perfect time for a growing person to get ‘dreamy’ in life and about life around us. The school days were full of fun. Every one of my friends was serious about studies I was the one more interested in cricket and was missing someone who had left for another town due to transfer of her father from the place where we were staying. I remember I liked this movie and its music very much and the songs from this movie have remained close to my heart ever since. On this blog we have so far covered four songs from this movie.

Today’s song is from the film Holi-1940.

The film was made by Ranjit Movietone, Bombay. The director was A.R.Kardar and the Music was by Khemchand Prakash, who had taken over from Gyan Dutt in the beginning of 1940. The first paid composer of Ranjit was Gyan Dutt from 1937 to 1940. In this period he gave music to 15 films. Khemchand Prakash gave music to 20 films in his period from 1940 to 1945, when Bulo C Rani took over in 1945 onwards. The film cast included Motilal, Ishwarlal,Keshavrao Datey, Lala yakub, Mirza Musharraf, Khursheed, Sitara, Tarabai, Dikshit and Ghori and many others. Actually the major stars of this film , Motilal, Ishwarlal, Sitara and Khursheed were all well known singers. However it was strange that Ishwar lal sang in the voice of Kantilal and Khursheed got the playback of Kalyani in this film, without getting a single song for themself.

(Happy Birthday Mithun Chakravarty)

‘Taraana-1979’ was directed by Deepak Bahri for Chanda Pictures. It was presented by Rajshri Productions and produced by Tarachand Barjatya. Living upto the reputation of the production house this movie too gives us a clean, musical, family entertainer movie. This is a nice movie having a nice story line of ‘love’ and including sub-plots of ‘lost and found’ story, and ‘wealthy and poor’ conflict to it. The cast of this movie ‘Taraana-1979’ is Ranjeeta, Mithun Chakraborty, Dr Shreeram Lagoo, Urmila Bhatt, Jayshree T., Sharat Saxena, and Om Shivpuri. They were supported by Yunus Parvez, Janki Das, Sundar, Bhagwan, Shakeel, Satyabhan Sinha, Naresh, Pardesi, Master Sandeep, Shobha Khote, Mala Jaggi, Uma Khosla, and Jagdeep. The story, screenplay and dialogues of this movie were written by Khalid & Narvi. Editing of this film was done by Mukhtar Ahmed.

Today’s song is from a 89 year old Talkie film, Jeevan Lata-1936. This was the production of the then popular Sagar Movietone, Bombay. Sagar had introduced a new hero in the same year – Surendranath, who was promoted as a competition to Saigal from Calcutta’s giant New Theatres.

Film Jeevanlata-1936 featured Motilal and Sabita devi. Motilal was introduced by Sagar in 1934 – opposite Sabita Devi, for whom that was her 4th talkie film with the production house. Jeevanlata-1936 was the 5th film of Motilal and the 8th film of Sabita Devi.

Playback singer and composer Sharda passed away on 14 June 2023. On her Remembrance Day today, I bring this post as a tribute in continuation to the recent two posts wherein Mukesh’s association under her compositions and a co-singer in their duets were covered.
Links to the two posts are provided below for reader’s ready reference.
Mukesh and his Co-Singers –14
Mukesh and his Composers – 35

There is nothing much to add from my knowledge to whatever I have already covered in my two aforesaid posts. But then, when I start writing, I keep writing. 😊

So, here we go again.
