Today’s song is from the movie ‘Batohi-1949’. This missing the beloved song is sung by Shrimati Ghosh.

I have earlier presented a song from this movie ‘Batohi-1949. This movie is an un-released movie of its time. Very less information is available in the Geet Kosh page for this movie. The name of the director for this movie is not given. However some sources on internet mention the name of the director as Kumar Menon. and the banner as ‘T.K. Screen Classics’. HFGK gives the cast of this movie as Bharat Bhooshan, Indu Pal, Krishna Murari, Beena Pal, Kesari, Shivraj, Sapru and others.

Geet Kosh lists six songs for this movie, leaving space for the possibility of more songs for this movie (yet to be known). Music for this movie is composed by S.K. Pal. The lyrics writers for this movie are Bharat Vyas, Vishwamitr Aadil, Ratan Piya, and Bharti Devi. Records for the songs for this movie were released by Columbia Records. Out of the six songs listed in Geet Kosh lyricist name is mentioned for only two individual songs, leaving blank for other four songs. Singers for these songs are Rajkumari, K.C. Dhawan, Manna Dey, Geet Roy/Dutt and Shrimati Ghosh.

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

Today 27th November 2025 is the seventy-third birth anniversary of Composer Singer Bappi Lahiri (27.11.1952-15.02.2022). On this occasion as a tribute to him I am presenting a song from the movie ‘Sinhaasan-1986’.

I got to listen to this song earlier this year when I was still at Vadodara and was travelling from the city to my workplace around 47 kms from the city. I had earlier presented filmography of Bappi Lahiri for his Hindi Films from the 1970s and also for few years of the 1980s. However I did not include it in my series of Bappi Lahiri songs where I had presented songs that are part of my memory till 1985, because this song did not fall in that category.

Today’s movie ‘Sinhaasan-1986’ was directed by Krishna who also produced it for ‘Padmalaya Studio, Madras’. So this is one of those movies of actor Jeetendra where he was a part of many films coming from the southern part of the country. Bappi Lahiri too was the regular music composer for such films. I have not watched this movie, so can’t say much about it. However it seems to be a ‘fantasy’ movie. The cast of this movie has Jeetendra, Jaya Prada, Pran, Kader Khan, Mandakini, Shakti Kapoor, Bharat Bhooshan, Dr Shreeram Lagoo, Amjad Khan, Sujit Kumar, Gulshan Grover, Gurbachan Singh, Praveen Kumar, Waheeda Rehman, Radha and others.

Today’s song is a lovely duet from the movie ‘Sati Sulochana-1969’. This song is sung by Suman Kalyanpur and Mahendra Kapoor. This song can well be categorized as a ‘chitrahaar’ of song. The melody will take you back to the melodious decade of the sixties.

Everybody has to leave this mortal world. Dharmendra was ailing for last several days so everybody feared the inevitable. He has left this mortal world but memories of his films and the songs from his films will remain with the film goers who watched his films. Moreover his fans also admire him as a nice human being that he came across as in many of his interviews and public appearances.
