Few months back when I was travelling to my work place I got to listen to a program on a famous Radio FM channel. In This program, the anchor talks about the some special ‘characters’ from movies and the actors performing these characters, and the impact such characters have on the audience. That day this program talked about two special characters i.e. ‘Mogambo’ of ‘Mr. India-1987’ and ‘Jaykant Shikre’ of ‘Singham-2011’.

Madhur Bhandarkar, the four-time National Film Award winner, is known to make films on some unusual issues. Some of his films’ titles like ‘Chandni Bar’ (2001), ‘Satta’ (2003), ‘Page-3’ (2005), ‘Corporate’ (2006), ‘Traffic Signal’ (2007), ‘Fashion’ (2008), ‘Heroine’ (2012), ‘Calendar Girls’ (2015) are indicative of the diverse and unusual subjects he has covered in his films. He does not think that his films are exposes but they show what is happening in society without passing value judgement. Usually, he makes films with one or two well-known actors. Rest of actors are usually from the theatre/TV background. Songs in his films are not a priority. Most of the issues he takes up in his film is Mumbai-based.

In this post I present a song from the movie ‘Aaj Aur Kal-1947’.

Readers would have noted my growing interest in the songs of 1947. After knowing (from Shri Arunkumar ji’s comment) that the year 1947 still holds the record for maximum Hindi movies released, I have developed an interest to try and bring all the songs available from this year 1947 on the blog.

Mukesh and his Composers – 23

This post is dedicated to Shri Harish Raghuwanshi ji of Surat for his pioneering work in collating songs and providing invaluable information on films and artists.

Mukesh’s collaboration with composer Lachhiram hardly rings any bell and rightly so as “they never worked in any film”.

With some surfing on the net, one comes across two devotional NFS that Mukesh sang for him. With more rigorous search one can find references of some rare and untraceable couplet that Mukesh sang in Lachhiram’s last film Main Suhangan Hoon released in 1964.
