VINTAGE NAUSHAD…….Song No. 1
————————————-
NAUSHAD may be or may not be the best Composer the HFM ever had, but he certainly was a good example of Rags to Riches story of Filmy Duniya. He rose from the footpath and became one of the most successful composers ever in Hindi Films. Added to this was his good nature, Lucknowi Tahzib and hard work.

It is just past midnight. It continues to be chillingly cold here in Delhi. The standoff is ongoing in the struggle with the beckoning blankets, as the mind is trying its best to continue staying at the keyboard and thwart all the enticements of a cozy quilt. So far so good.

Time to take a breather. Ah, well, not on Atul-Song-a-Day blog. For the celebrations are afoot, and the special songs have to be processed and posted, in time for deadlines.
Talking about deadlines, in the past week to ten days, we have been missing quite a few of them. I was in email communication with Atul ji earlier today. You see, he had informed us well in advance that his family will be with him during the closing weeks of the year, and he would have very little time to devote to the blog activities. Ah yes, when the boss is around, . . . . 🙂

There are others who are posting photos of the year that was, on the friendly social networking sites. (In this we are aided by the site itself in choosing random photos that was published by us through the year). So I thought let me also see how the year was for me.

Chaandni raaten – Song No. 17
————————————–
chandni raaten
ho. . oo. .
chaandni raaten
sab jag soye
ham jaagen

ho. . oo. .
chaandni raaten

chaandni raaten
This song has over the years been heard here and there. I was aware this is some remix song of an old song, just like the remix of the song ‘Kitni Akeli Kitni Tanhaa Si Lagi‘ from film ‘Talaash’ (1969). I used to think that ‘Kitni Akeli. . . ‘ song was a Kishore Kumar song and remixed. It was many years later that I heard the original Lata Mangeshkar song composed by SD Burman.

23rd December was the anniversary of passing away of two artists that have a significant contribution to the Indian cinema – singer Noorjehaan and music director K Datta.
Noorjehaan, born as Allah Wasai in 1926, was one of the eleven siblings born into a family of musicians and singers. Her parents, Madad Ali and Fateh Bibi encouraged her and at the age of six years, she learnt music at the feet of Bade Ghulam Ali Khan. When she was nine, her talent caught the attention of Ghulam Ahmed Chishti, who brought her to stage programs in Lahore, in which she appeared as Baby Noorjehaan.
