#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #

Today’s song is from the year 1947. I had once taken up the task of sharing songs from this year. The undiscovered musical treasures from this year fascinate me because of the importance of this year when India achieved its freedom. Our inhouse encylopeadia Shree Arunkumar jee has informed us repeatedly that this year held the record for maximum Hindi movies released till that time. This information is another reason why I became interested in trying to find all the available songs from movies of 1947 that are not yet represented in the blog. In the process, I hope to gather more information about the movies and songs of 1947.

(Birthday – Music Composer-Rajesh Roshan)

Today 24th May 2026 is the birthday of music director-lyricist Rajesh Roshan. On this occasion we are presenting some of his compositions here.

Rajesh Roshan is known for creating some very beautiful and memorable romantic songs. Here I would specially like to mention the songs from ‘Swarg Narak-1978’ ‘naheen naheen koyee tumsaa haseen’ and ‘leena o leena’ these are two songs that I have stayed in my memory and I have fond memories of having listened to these songs despite being unequipped to understand the meanings of the lyrics those days.

(Birthday – Music Composer-Rajesh Roshan)

Today 24th May is the birthday of music director-lyricist Rajesh Roshan (born on 24.05.1955, some sources mentione the year as 1953). He is one of my favorite all time composer.

I had written about him in couple of my earlier posts on the blog. What I wrote about him in the past is worth repeating it on this occasion. During my school days, our cricket playing group used to meet every evening at the Colony recreation club. after going throught the news papers/magazines kept there, we would start discussing various topics. Hindi films and Songs were naturally a topic of common interest. Our favourite films and songs frequently got discussed there.
