# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Missing movies of 1973-Hifaazat-23)

Today we pay our tributes to one of the greatest music directors of Hindi Cinema i.e. Rahul Dev Burman. He was born on this day i.e. 27th June, 1939 and passed away on 04th Jaunary, 1994. Had he been alive today he would have turned eighty four years old. But he left us at the age of fifty-five only. In his last days he suffered on both health ground and mentally he was upset for treatment given to him in those troubled days by the industry and peoples around him.

Today I am presenting a song from a lesser known movie where the music was composed by RD Burman. This movie is ‘Hifaazat’ from 1973. This movie is making its debut on the blog today.

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Bandish’ from 1969.

I was not aware of this song till 2018 when I took up to present a write-up on singer Jaspal Singh for the song “Jin Khoja Tin Paayian Gehre Paani Paith” from the movie ‘Paayal Ki Jhankaar’ (1980) which was posted on the blog on 02.04.2018. This article is a part of the series I am presenting on the ‘special voices of the seventies’ and Jaspal Singh is one of those voices. So far I have presented nine posts in this series and there are more yet to come in the future.

#the Decade of – 2000 – 2010 #
———————————————————————

During the travels that I had in recent months, I had a trip to north. It included visiting Dalhousie, Dharamshala, and the tourist spots near to these places. The last leg of our trip was visiting Amritsar. We had planned to visit the Jalianwaala Bagh Memorial, Golden Temple and the Wagah Border. On 16th April 2023 morning we started from Dharamshala for Amritsar. Since we got late in the morning we reached Amritsar around three o’ clock in the afternoon. We straightway visited the Jalianwaala Bagh Memorial first and from there decided to go to Wagah Border first as the time for beating retreat ceremony was getting closer. So we thought that after the visit to the border we would be visiting the Golden Temple in the evening later.

Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Darling Darling-1977)
——————————————-——————————————

 Today’s song is from the movie ‘Darling Darling’ (1977). Going by the Censor Board Certificate dated 11.05.1977 of this movie, I was just over nine years old when this movie must have been released. But I did not get to watch this movie then and I do not remember to have watched it later elsewhere. This movie had few good songs and they happen to be played frequently on loud-speakers then. Particularly I think the title song of this movie was heard more than other songs then. To me this song was an irritating song then. We as children were even shy to say the word ‘darling’ because we thought it was ‘ultra-modern’ type word for children like us who were studying in small village school. 🙂

There are few write-ups that I had left unfinished before the ‘gang-out’ happened. They remained unfinished and so got delayed. Today’s post is one such delayed post which was about ‘summer vacations in my childhood days’ and memory of one such movie watched during one summer vacation.

The vacations are over this year and I guess that schools have re-opened everywhere, except a few states where vacations have been extended due to severe heat conditions that still exist.
