BHAJAN MALA – GOLDEN 50s (Pushp- 1)
——————————————
I grew up in a joint family of about 20 people including children. My childhood memories are vivid and I remember playing with cousins and enjoying Festivals with the elders. By coincidence ,by 1947-48 our joint family was fragmented, not because of the Partition, but because One Uncle joined Army, the other joined Navy and the third one joined Police. My own father had to go underground to evade arrest, after Gandhi ji’s assassination..He was an RSS worker. We shifted coolly to Banaras and stayed there for an year. Ultimately father was traced and arrested and we were escorted by the police to mother’s town in Maharashtra.

THE VIBRANT 40s (Episode No. 15)LAST SONG OF THIS SERIES
——————————————————-
All human being like to be always happy. No one wants to be sad, no one wants pain, penury misery and anonymity. There are scores of cases from the film Industry which bring tears after reading about their last days and their sad ends. Not that every artist died in this way. There were hundreds of film personalities who spent their last days in comfort and with their dear ones. No one will remember that, but stories of Riches to Rags and death of an artist in total anonymity saddens the heart.

Aah, the wonderful world of Chitragupt’s melodies. A composer par excellence, whose creations do never cease to surprise, as one continues to come encounter heretofore songs that seemed to have got lost in the folds of time. This song today is a very old friend from the radio listening days, that dipped below the horizons of memories for some time.

When I first saw Chetan Anand’s ‘Haqeeqat’ (1964), on TV, I was a pre teen kid, not old enough to really appreciate the human pathos and the emotions involved in the storyline. But of course, there are a few passages and images that simply stuck to my mind. Randomly they would pass through the mind’s screen. This would continue for many, many years till the time I revisited the film, and then sat through it for a complete view. This was after I had read a lot about this film, its background, its actors, and its impact on the public mind during those troubled war years of 1960s and early 1970.

THE VIBRANT 40s (Episode No. 13)
————————————-
Today Mumbai (erstwhile BOMBAY) boasts of being the only place where Hindi films are made, but in the initial stages of Film-making, it was not so. There were other centres too, which made Hindi films like Calcutta, Poona, Kolhapur, Madras, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Lahore and some odd towns as well. Out of all these,the most famous and the biggest-qualitatively- had always been CALCUTTA.

Real life has no control experiments. In the sense that one cannot experiment with real life. One cannot re enact the passages of life which
have already passed, and try them with a different set of parameters. Time once gone, cannot be relived. And events and passages once experienced, cannot be replayed. The seductive thought process – ‘yun hota to kya hota’ (‘Ah, only if it were so’) is an exercise in speculation, for one cannot decisively say whether the results in life would have been different, had one taken a different path and made some different choices. It is all speculation, and nothing else.

THE VIBRANT 40S (Episode No. 12)
————————————-
Initially, when the Talkie films started, most of the actors and actresses of the silent era, who could speak Hindi/Urdu and sing a little got entry into these films. Soon many Anglo-Indian girls and actors like master Vithal, who could not speak Hindi properly, leave aside singing, had to be excluded from Talkie films.(Master Vithal who was selected as the Hero for India’s First Talkie film,”Aalam Ara”-1931, based on his looks,Physique and his silent film credentials-over the capable Mehboob Khan- gave such pathetic performance in his Hindi/Urdu dialogues that he had to be shown as Unconcious almost throughout the film to hide his poor diction of Hindi/Urdu dialogues.)

None of my series is complete without a song by/from C Ramchandra. This not only indicates my love for his songs, but also highlights that he composed a variety of songs to fit into any series.
