#Singer Mohd Rafi’s Remembrance Day 31st July’2024#

In this post I am presenting a Rafi song from the movie ‘Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thhi’ (1970). This song is picturised on actor Jagdeep. Music lovers are well aware that there are many well-known songs sung by Rafi Sb for actor Jagdeep. Some prominent songs among them that I vividly remember are “Chali Chali Re Patang Meri Chali Re“, “Hum Panchhi Ek Daal Ke“, and “Paas Baithho Tabeeyat Bahal Jaayegi” and many others. In the later years i.e. from the year 1980 Rafi Sb lent his voice to actor Jagdeep in the movie ‘Phir Wohi Raat’ for the song “Aa Gaye Yaaro Jeene Ke Din” which I had presented on this blog earlier. There is long list of Rafi songs for Jagdeep and we will try to discuss the total list here in future posts on the blog.

The song in this post is from the movie ‘Chaachaa Bhateejaa’ which was released in the year ‘1977’.

If one goes through the ‘list of movies’ released during this year i.e. 1977, one can notice that this was one among the ‘best years’ for Hindi Films. We can see diverse subjects on which movies were based though the central theme of most of the movies revolved around ‘formula movies and entertainment’.

(Lyricist – Naqsh Lyallpuri-2)

Today’s song is from the ‘1964’ movie ‘Sarfarosh’. It is a ‘Qawwali Song’ which is my favorite genre of songs. For me listening to ‘Qawwali’ is always exciting and highly enjoyable as they generally have ‘high quality poetry’ in them along with the singing and the music accompanying it.

“Sarfarosh-1964” was a ‘costume drama’ movie directed by Dharam Kumar for ‘United Movies Art, Bombay’. It had Jairaj, Nishi, Jeevan, Jagirdar, Shery, Maruti, Pratima Devi and others. This movie has six songs which were all written by Naqsh Lyallpuri. Music for this movie was composed by S. Mohinder. Asha Bhonsle, Suman Kalyanpur, and Mohd Rafi had given their voices to the songs in this movie.

Today, 19 July 2024, is a special day for the blog. It was on this date 16 years ago that this blog had come into existence with its debut post “Miley Na Phool To Kaanton Se Dosti Kr Li” on 19 July 2008. We have come a long way in the blog from that small beginning. On this occasion, we will have quite a few posts today to celebrate the occasion. Keep watching this blog throughout the day.

Today 19th July’2024 is the sixteenth birthday anniversary of this wonderful blog. And this is a big occasion for us ‘likeminded music lovers’. This also call for a big ‘celebration’ today. I would like to thank our team member Mahesh ji who posted a message in the ‘WhatsApp group’ giving an ‘alert’ to all members for this occasion. It is not that I do not remember it, but sometimes we need reminders (as it is usual with me nowadays to forget ‘things’ and remembering it a bit later 🙂 , hotaa hai , hotaa hai …

(12th Remembrance Anniversary Day of Rajesh Khanna – 18th July’2024)

Today on the occasion of actor Rajesh Khanna’s 12th Remembrance Anniversary we pay our tributes to him by posting songs from the movies he acted in.

In this post I am presenting a song from the ‘1990’ movie ‘Swarg’. Trying to recollect now, I think this was the last movie of Rajesh Khanna which I watched in the theatres. I was staying at Kota (Rajasthan), and we had watched this movie on a holiday with colleagues from the company I was working in. Later on, as I progressed in my professional career, I had to shift to Bareilly (UP) where I stayed from 1999 to 2004. During this period the movie ‘Aa Ab Laut Chalen 1999’ was released, but I do not remember why I failed to watched it at that time. Subsequently I watched some movies of Rajesh Khanna on TV or on various channels. The latest Rajesh Khanna movies (for me) that I watched a few months ago were ‘Ajnabi-1974’ and ‘Amar Prem-1971’.

Rajesh Khanna – The Phenomenon – 13
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –- – –

‘1983’ to ‘1988’ was the ‘peak time’ for me for watching Rajesh Khanna movies. From ‘1983-1985’ I was studying (? 🙂 ) in 11th-12th standard and staying at Akola with my grandparents. There was our group of friends who shared common interests of cricket and Kaka. Couple of my friends in this group were bigger fans of Kaka than me.Following the success of ‘Avtaar’ and ‘Souten’, earlier movies of Rajesh Khanna were also re released in theatres, and we used to watch them in theatres.

(12th Remembrance Anniversary Day of Rajesh Khanna – 18th July’2024)

Today 18th July 2024 is the ‘Twelfth remembrance’ anniversary of Rajesh Khanna. He was born on 29th December’1942 and he passed away on 18th July’2012.

On this occasion, as a tribute to him, here is a song from the movie ‘Aanchal-1980’. Regulars on this blog must have noticed that majority of the Rajesh Khanna songs from his earlier movies (1967-1976) were covered on this blog in the initial years of this blog. These song-posts then were read with much interest and some regular commentators would post their comments on these posts with passion. And why not, some of them were big fans of Rajesh Khanna. Among these regulars used to be one of our senior team-members Raja Saab. He also wrote many heartfelt posts on Rajesh Khanna on this blog. In recent years he has taken a break from writing on the blog, and I hope that and wish that he will make a comeback in future on the blog.
