Prabhat Film Company’s ‘Padosi’ (1941) can be regarded as the first Hindi film based on the theme of Hindu-Muslim unity. This theme was considered as a courageous and risky proposition as sword pf Damocles was bound to hang over the head any producer dealing with such an explosive subject. The fanaticism prevalent in both these communities could wreck the box office prospects of the film. Defyung such dire predictions, ‘Padosi’ (1941) went on to became a box office hit.

If one were to analyse Hindi film songs by content, most of them would fall in the love-romance category. This is understandable because a very high proportion of films revolve around love and romance.

So today is the 81st birthday of our favourite “he-man” (a tag like the angry-young-man tag that was given to Amitabh Bachchan a long time ago.)
Born in Punjab and loved the world over he is an actor first who went on to become a producer to launch his sons in filmdom. He was possibly the only actor to have sailed successfully through the Rajesh Khanna and then the Amitabh Bachchan wave. He had a hold on comedy too -“Chupke Chupke” is a case in point. So today we are celebrating Dharamendra.

Many songs picturised on Dharmendra are yet to be posted on the blog, and quite a few of his movies have not even made their debuts on the blog, so a wide choice of movies and songs are available that can be considered for an occasion like this.

Kishore Kumar – his many moods …
————————————–
In my current search for missing Kishore Kumar songs on the blog, this song fits the bill perfectly. This is a song from his earlier decades i.e. before the seventies, here Kishore Kumar is singing for himself and this is the only Kishore Kumar song from ‘Asha – 1957’ that is yet to be discussed in the blog. In addition, this song also had the added qualification of being one of the ‘lesser heard’ songs too. Personally I do not recall any occasions of listening to this song in the past.
