#The Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
YEAR 1983-2
The song under discussion is from the movie ‘Painter Babu-1983’. It was a special movie for teenagers of those days like us.
Board examination for Xth were upon us and obviously that was uppermost in our minds. At the same time, we were not immune to the other topics of our interest, viz cricket, Hindi movies, and listening to Hindi movie songs on radio.
‘Painter Babu’ was being promoted on radio just as we were preparing for our board exams (of class Xth). Songs of this movie, that were frequently played on radio was a hot topic of discussion in my friend circle. The radio promotion of this movie had its intended effect on us and we became curious about this movie and its debutant lead pair. The fact this movie was produced by Manoj Kumar was in any case an added attraction. AThe fact that Manoj Kumar’s brother was making his debut (with three others also makingtheir debuts), had our friend’s circle excited about this movie. The music of this movie was composed by music duo Uttam Singh- Jagdish Khanna. These names were new for me. We finally got to watch this movie during tsummer vacations after our board examination was over.

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
#Drunkard Songs -1 #
The song in this post is a drunkard song. We already have more than 200+ songs of this category in the blog but there are still many more😊 such songs yet to be represented here.
I was aware of many drunkard songs that are already covered in the blog from my radio listening and music collection days, but I was not aware that there were such a large number of these songs in Hindi films.
I have mentioned it several times that one of the reasons for me to like these songs was that they contained some high class poetry 😊 . The protagonist of these songs would often wax lyrical about philosophy of life. The protagonist would look cheerful while drunk, no matter he put others around him in embarrassing situation.😊
Ae jee maine poochhaa

#Sureelee Suman – Suman Kalyanpur – 28.01.1937 – 31.05.2026) #
Suman Kalyanpur the ‘Sureelee Suman’ of Hindi Film Music, and many regional languages music passed away on 31st May 2026. She was born on 28th January 1937. The news of her passing away came as a shock to music lovers. I got this news first on a WhatsApp group which I did not want to believe. When I checked on internet there was no such news. It was only on the next day that several sources carried this news and this bad news was confirmed.
As a music lover I had been listening to the voice of Suman Kalyanpur from early childhood. After coming into contact with this blog, I got the opportunity to share many of her songs and I enjoyed listening to these songs in the process of preparing their writeups.
