Some gap in communications ! I am surprised at myself. Almost like having a writer’s block – besides other constraints, of course.

Hindi movie Music basically has three major fields, namely singing, lyrics writing and music composition. All these are specialised fields. People who are good in two of these fields can be called musical all rounders.

That way Hemant Kumar was a true musical all rounder. He can be described as a great in music composition as well in playback singing. And that is reflected in this blog too where Hemant Kumar has completed his century of songs as a music director and as a playback singer both. To this date, he is the only artist in the blog to have done so.

“Waqt” (1965) was one of the most influential Hindi movies of all times. The story of “Waqt” (1965) was by no means original, but the scale and presentation of the the story was was certainly grand. I have already given several reasons in the past why I call this movie an influential movie.

I have discussed as many as eight songs from “Naagin” (1954) and all of them are iconic songs. I thought that all the iconic songs from this movie have already been discussed. So it comes as a huge surprise to me to realise that the song “Mann doley mera tann doley” from “Naagin” (1954) has not yet been discussed.

I have a 78 RPM record (N.50600) of the song ‘saathi na bane koi’ from film DHUAAN (1953) sung by Krishna Goel which was set to music by Dhaniram. Since I was not able to listen to this record (which in any case is in poor condition) for want of a record player, I have been searching for the audio clip of the same on the internet sites.

Recently,I came across a duet song ‘chanda tale muskuraaye jawaaniyaan’ from the film ‘CHANDI RANI’ (1953) sung by Talat Mehmood and P Bhanumathi. I had never heard of the film or the song. From the Indian Film Trade and other websites, I could gather that the film was produced under the banner of Bharani Pictures jointly owned by P S Ramakrishna Rao and P Bhanumathi and directed by herself. The film was made in Telugu, Tamil and Hindi and released simultaneously. This was her debut film as a director. She was also the lead actor ( double roles) with N T Rama Rao. I could not get synopsis of this film but I guess from the title of the film that it was a film based on some fairy tale. It is said that with this film, she became the first woman in the history of Indian film industry to produce, direct, act and sing in a film.
