Today’s devotional song is from the 1975 movie i.e. a movie which has completed fifty years of existence in Hindi Film History. This movie is ‘Bhakti Mein Bhagwaan’. Regulars of the blog are aware that this year we will be adding the missing movies of the year 1975 which are not yet represented on the blog.

1975 was a memorable year for the Hindi film industry. It is remembered for some milestone movies of Hindi cinema like ‘Sholay’, ‘Jai Santoshi Maa’, ‘Deewaar’ etc. Movies like ‘Geet Gaataa Chal’, ‘Julie’, ‘Mausam’, ‘Chhotisi Baat’, ‘Rafoo Chakkar’, ‘Sanyaasi’, and ‘Pratigyaa’ were the other top successful movies of that year.

#the Decade of Fifties –1951 – 1960 #

In this post we listen to a song from the 1959 movie ‘Tin Tin Tin’. Tin-Tin-Tin-1959 made its debut on the blog on 12.08.2014 with its song ‘ jhoomti bahaar hai raat hai jawaan’. Two more songs from this movie were posted on 02.12.2020 and 24.04.2023. When I had shared the first song from this movie as a lyrics contributor in 2014, it was the only song from this movie that was available online at that time. Subsequently, other songs from this movie too have become available. Only audio of these songs are available and no videos of this movie are availaable.

‘Tin Tin Tin-1959’ was directed by B.J. Patel for ‘Kirit Films, Bombay’. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 06.08.1959. It was produced by Dhanpatrai. It had Ceasar (a dog trained by Jimmy Bharucha), Neelofar, Samar Roy, Mirajkar, Habib, Rajan Kapoor, Vishwa Mehra, Devchand, Moolchand, Bhudo Advani, Abdul Sattar, Tun Tun and others. This movie had five songs composed by Bulo C. Rani and written by Anand Bakshi (two songs) and Aziz Kashmiri (two songs). Lyricist is not known for one song.

# Debutant Movie –Mandir Masjid-1977#
————————————————

Today’s song is a wonderful sufi qawwaalee from the 1977 movie ‘Mandir Masjid’.

I was longing to share this song on the blog. I have listened to this song many times and liked this composition very much. The singers of this Qawwaalee song are Mohd Rafi, Manna Dey, Shankar-Shambhu, and Ram Kumar. I was under the impression that this song also has the voice of Jani Babu Qawwaal but Geet Kosh and other sources do not mention his name. As per information contained in Geet Kosh Vol-V (1971-1980) the famous Qawwaalee duo Shankar-Shambhu had confirmed that this song was composed by them, though the music composer for this movie was Sharda. They had also informed that this song has the voice of Ram Kumar as well(I am not aware about him).

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

We are all aware of the movie ‘Jai Santoshi Maa’ which came in the year 1975. This movie turns fifty years old’ this year. I remember watching this movie with my parents and I liked all the songs from this movie. However I was not aware of the movie whose song is being covered in the post. I became aware of this movie only after getting hold of Geet Kosh Vol-VI (1981-1985). Geet Kosh mentions in the footnote of this movie that the songs from this movie ‘Sampoorna Santoshi Maa Ki Mahimaa-1981’ were released in the 1975 with the title ‘Santoshi Maa Ki Mahimaa’. However, later the title of this movie was changed to ‘Sampoorna Santoshi Maa Ki Mahimaa’ and it was released in 1981.

India is a land of vast diversity in its culture and traditions. However, the underlying theme of Unity in this diversity has remained intact for centuries.

But, among these diversities there are festivals and pilgrimages that bond us together spiritually.
