When I look back at my formative years (viz 1960s and 1970s), I find that my musical tastes at that time were quite different from what it is at present. Those were the days when I only liked new songs and scoffed at old songs. Old songs for me were any songs recorded before 1967 and composed by music directors of the generations older than that of R D Burman. It was during mid 1970s that I decided to try and like “old” songs. It was then that I discovered music directors of the earlier generation, viz O P Nayyar, C Ramchandra etc and forced myself to try and like their music, all the time comparing their music to R D Burman’s music and wondering why the older generation music directors cold not compose music like R D Burman. 🙂

Today (23 october 2014) is the festival of deepaawali. This festival is supposed to bring joy and happiness in the lives of everyone. I can certainly vouch for that. My main computer that has been hijacked by my wife for the last few days was surprisingly available to me this morning. I wake up earlier than others on the pretext of letting the dog out and teaching the daughter. The dogs were wide awake as usual but my daughter (and wife) are not (as usual). That gave me the opportunity of sitting on my main computer and try and give finishing touch to the posts for the day.

Today (11 october 2014) is the festival of Karwa Chauth. On this occasion, here is a karva chauth song from “Jurrat” (1989). The song is sung by Lata and chorus. The song is picturised on Amla and other women who are seen dancing and singing, which is the recommended filmy way of observing karva chauth vrat, I suppose. 🙂

Most Rakhi songs in this blog are from the golden era of HFM, viz from 1950s to 1970s, though Rakhi songs from 1930s, 40s and 80s have also been discussed in the past.
Here is a Rakhi song from the 1990s. This picturisation is intesteting. It shows a Mithun da covered from head to toes in Rakhis arrive at his residence where his three sisters are waiting for him. The sisters cannot even identify him, before the small kid accompanying Mithun da explains that Mithun Da had saved several girls from the clutches of baddies and the grateful girls had tied him with rakhis all over his body, including face. 🙂

Today is 10 august 2014 and the festival of Raakhi falls today. Seeing that this day is not declared as a holiday in most offices, it helps if this festival falls on the weekend, like how it is this time, when it has fallen on a sunday.

Time passes incessantly. And this relentless movement tends to become monotonous, if it were not for celebrations and festivals that punctuate the continuity of this passage. Time of the year again, for specific festivals and celebrations. A new enthusiasm and a new zest – to be doing new things differently.

Id Mubaarak, to all dear friends and visitors.
The trials and penance of the fasting month, Ramzan come to an end and it is the day to celebrate with happiness. A day of joy, to celebrate with family, and friends. It is a day to greet even the strangers that one meets. A day of fresh new attire, a day of favorite savories, a day of family get togethers, leisure time with friends, shopping ventures, exchange of gifts, and yes, ‘idee’ for the children. (‘Idee’ is the gift that the children received from elders today, when they meet them and pay their respects. It is a token, presented in cash or kind.)
