#The Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————

Yesterday the festival of Naag Panchamee was celebrated all over the country. I read that the tithhee of Naag Panchamee falls on both days viz 29th and 30th July. However the auspicious (mahurat) timings for the offering the prayers was yesterday only, and that too was for just couple of hours. Initially I was looking for a song from the older movies which could be fit for the occasion, however due to changed priorities, I could not share a post yesterday. Before I could finalise a song I came across an article on internet which was about the vanished genres of film stories in recent years. Till the decade of seventies many movies were still made with mythological stories and the films about snakes and ichchhaadhaaree naag or naagin were being made in those decades. Even in the eighties we had films like ‘Naginaa-1986’, ‘Nagin Aur Nagina-1988’(dubbed movie), ‘Nigaahen-1989’, ‘Doodh Kaa Karz-1990’, ‘Tum Mere Ho-1990’ etc.

#The Decade of Nineties – 1991 – 2000 #
———————————————————————

In my previous post earler today I discussed the ongoing monsoon season in our country. Monsoon has arrived more than a month back and most parts of the country has received good rains. That got me interested to present a rain song here today.

Lots of rain songs are yet to be covered on the blog. When I checked the category of rain songs I noted that the last rain song on the blog was posted on 26th August 2023. It is surprising that no rain song was posted after August 2023 unless some such songs were posted but they failed to get tagged under rain songs.

#Desh Kee Mittee Kee Khushboo#

My recent posts on this blog have been mostly presentations of devotional songs. One reason is that the holy month of saawan has commenced. Devotees of Lord Shiva or Bholey Baabaa are untertaking ‘kaanwar yaatraa’ to bring the holy gangajal from the Ganga river from places such as ‘Gaumukh’, ‘Haridwar’,Gangotri, Sultanganj (Bihar). Devotees get ‘gangaajal’ from these places and then carry the water pots on a contraption called kaanvar. Devotees then offer this water at their local shrines. Some devotees carry this water to various ‘jyotirlingaas’ of Lord Shiva or specific temples of Lord Shiva and offer it there. This is an annual pilgrimage undertaken by millions specifically in the northern parts of the country (including eastern and central India and parts of Western India). The devotees travel to the temples of Shiva while chanting ‘bol bam’ throughout the journey.
