On 26th September 1923, in Shakargarh Tehsil of Gurdaspur district of Punjab (undivided India) a third son was born to the well-to-do advocate Pishori Lal Anand who was named Dharamdev. Dharamdev went on to become the heartthrob of Hindi film fans as DEV ANAND.

Recently, I came across an audio clip of a song from ‘Mil Gayee Manzil Mujhe’ (1998), a film directed by Lekh Tandon. Online resources shows that the film was completed in 1997 but remained unreleased. The audio album of the songs was released in January 1998. I got confused as there was another film in the same title with Mithun Chakraborty and Moon Moon Sen in lead roles which was released in 1989. Things got somewhat cleared when I came across an interview of Milind Gunaji, one of the main actors of the film, which appeared on rediff.com on January 9, 1998. He said that after the completion of about 70 percent of the shooting, Lekh Tandon left the film. However, after some time, he was persuaded to complete the film which he did in December 1997. Still the film did not get released.

We are all fans of someone or other. We also find that our idols are fans of talents from their growing up years, whom they used to idolize & continue to do so. I can enumerate many examples to show this- {1} Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, Shahrukh Khan etc have a huge fan following but, at various occasions they have confessed that seeing Dilip Kumar on-screen is what made them want to be become actors. {2} Dilip Kumar & Dev Anand are said to have been inspired by Ashok Kumar. {4} Waheeda Rehman’s is another case in point – her fangirl moment came when she got to face the camera alongside Dev Anand for ‘C.I.D’ (1956).

Today’s song is from dubbed Tamil film, titled ” Manohar” in Hindi, in 1954.

After the mind boggling and the most unexpected success of the film Chandralekha-1948 from Gemini Studios, owned by S.S.Vasan, the Southern film industry was shaken. They never imagined that the Hindi belt could be tapped for additional business. The southern film stars, who always harboured a hidden desire to gain name, fame and the consequent money from the Hindi belt which occupied almost 75 to 80 % of All India market, also saw their opportunities in this.

Hullo Atuldom

There are some celebrities who’s birthdays & anniversaries become national events. The media goes crazy in trying to show case their work and remind the film-crazy public about the body of their work, and bring them into public domain. I don’t grudge these celebrities their popularity. All of the concerned actors, actresses, music directors, singers etc have a huge fan following because of their work only.

Then there are those who reach milestone birthdays quietly, without much fanfare. 23rd September happens to be one such date. It is the date of birth of 3 actors whose work I have been following since I started seeing films consciously.

Today’s song is a lovely qawwali from the film Paak Daman-1957. The story of this film seems to be very popular and well known, because I find that several films were made on this one story and with the same title. The first film came in 1931 as Paak Daman. Then came Paak Daman Raqasa-1932, Paak Daman-1940 and Paak Daman-1957. Meanwhile a Pakistani film Paak Daman was also made in 1969.

‘Teesra Kinaara’ (1986) is one of those films of 1980s which faded into oblivion despite having a good story and music. The film has become so obscure that it is not available for viewing on video sharing platforms. Despite my best efforts, I did not find the film on OTT platforms also. Fortunately, the video clips of a couple of songs are available besides mp3 clips of all the songs.
