What may be a good definition of a friend? I am sure everyone will have many an answer to this question. I would like to add this following definition to that list today. A good friend is one who will remind you of a wonderful melodious song, that you may have heard long back, and have forgotten about it, or maybe you have not heard it and he or she introduced you to it. Aa ha, I am sure you will agree with me on this. 🙂

Raag Maalikaa in Hindi Films – 8
=====================
Very recently Atul-ji posted a classical song by Ustad Ameer Khan from Baiju Bawara. He has wonderfully written about the minority of film music listeners, who likes and could appreciate classical music.(I wish I had a small portion of his ability to put forward the ideas like him.) Being in that minority, I am thankful again to Atul-ji to post my classically based offerings, without my asking or making a stir for a quota of reservation for such minorities.

THE VIBRANT 40s (Episode No. 3)
———————————–
The Hindi film industry has been very dynamic throughout its history. From the beginning till today, plenty of new ideas, experiments and changes have improved the industry in many of its departments. Of course, it is not always that improvement in Technique improves the quality. As per the latest Technology, nowadays,to record a Duet song with chorus, it is not necessary for both the singers to be available at the same time and sing the song together. With 24 track tapes, nowadays, each singer comes as per his appointment to the recording studio, sings and records his part of the song and goes away. Same with the chorus party also. Once everyone has sung his part of the song, then the entire song is mixed and rerecorded together with the track of music and chorus included in it. Lo and Behold….Your New song is ready !

Nainon se naina milaa ke – Song no. 14
——————————————
The summer vacation have started for school going children. With upcoming long weekends and only three working days in between, this might have been a good opportunity to go on a vacation somewhere cool calm and quite. For those who are able to plan well in advance and have been good all year round to be able to take time off work, anyway. And for some of us who are not able to plan in advance, it is the same heat and dust of Mumbai. Of course there are a few hill stations close by where one may just decide to pay a visit, on a spur of the moment. But at this time of the year those places like Lonavla , Mahableshwar and Matheran etc are teeming with holiday makers. There is no calm and quite to be had at these popular spots. Lately these spots have turned into the places where no season is off season, the proximity to Mumbai is the reason.

THE VIBRANT 40s (Episode No. 2)
——————————–
In the first episode, we have described the period of 40s as the decade of experimentation and changes. Stunt films had started from the era of silent films itself, but sporadically. This genre prospered in the 40s as many films featuring deadly stunt scenes( actually done, not trick scenes) came on the screen. Among the actors who were famous for stunt films in the 40s were Master Vithal, Master Bhagwan, Fearless Nadia and few others. But no one became as successful and popular as Fearless Nadia in stunt film genre. Fearless Nadia who became famous from her First stunt film ” Hunterwali”-1935 itself, worked exclusively for Wadia Brothers, who discovered her. She worked for Wadia Movietone from 1933 to 1942 and for Basant Pictures from 43 to upto her retirement. She worked in 37 films in all. Her first film was ‘Lal e Yaman’-1933 and the last one was ‘ Khiladi’-1958.
