Mohammed Rafi : The Incomparable (II) – Song No. 14
———————————————————
Remembering Mohammed Rafi Sahab on his 95th birth anniversary :
Someone once told me that to become cynical you first had to be an idealist and it was the loss of those ideals that created the disillusionment. But than what is an idealist if not an individual with independent thinking and with the added ability to incorporate diverse ideas. And cynicism is bound to be an integral part of any ideological theory if it seeks to negate the perceived or real concepts of injustice against humanity. Critical analysis of any ideological concepts will possibly make the ideologist a cynic if the said ideology is not perfect enough or as perfect as the ideologist wanted it to be. Cynical person is often very critical of things and situations and their repercussions. While as an idealist, will find a lot to express about the idea rather than focusing on criticism of anything else. That makes cynicism the anti-thesis of idealism. On the other hand, idealism if it seeks to unilaterally implement a social order in a given society is regressive to its intellectual and overall progress as a civilization, since it seeks no introspection and encourages narrow thoughts. Whereas a cynic will look at all things surrounding it and might even be able to look beyond it.

As I have said in one of my recent posts, whenever I read something inspiring, be it a poem or an article, it inspires me to write something of my own thoughts. Nowadays there is less and less readable material forthcoming from the print media. The blog and its posts are sometimes savior’s for the intellect. One such article was the post by Sudhir Sir – “Gandhi Tere Desh Mein Ye Kaisa Atyachaar“, on the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi. It appeared quite late in the night, but as I read it completely, it was a thoroughly readable and thought provoking post. At least I found it thought provoking and for the next few days the matters and the quotes from the Mahatma’s books, and my own thought relating to them were reverberating in my mind. I wrote a lengthy comment on the post which I am reproducing here.

My stint as a post writer for the blog started with this song from the film “Gumnaam”. This was a Helen song, and I chose it as the song for my first post in the blog for no particular reason. Maybe it was not yet posted in the blog was the only trigger, apart from my husband suggesting it.
Another remarkable thing about my first posts was that, it got posted within a few hours of sending the mail. There were very few outside contributors who were writing posts back than in 2012, could have been one of the factors in being given such priority treatment 🙂 . Guest posters were few and lyrics contributors were many. I was one of the early song lyric contributors. Those were very heady days of finding known, much loved songs not yet posted in the blog. I remember with fondness, sending lyrics of some of my all-time favourite songs like “ ab to hai tum se har khushi apni” from “Abhimaan” and the hauntingly beautiful rendition of ‘hai tere saathh meri wafaa” from “Hindustan ki Qasam”.

Amitabh Bachhchan, the star of the Millennium, was born in the than Allahabad (which is the English name of city named Ilahbad in Urdu) on 11.10.1942. His given name is Inquilab Srivastava, as per Wikipedia. This is a surprise for me and surely for many people, as a never heard fact. Also has the distinction of acting as the hero in the film ‘Inquilab’ not named after him :-). His father did name him after the slogan of freedom movement “Inquilab Zindabad”. I have never heard of anyone named ‘inquilab’, but have a friend named ‘Kranti’ which is the same thing with change in language only.

wo chaand hai to aks bhi paani mein aayegaa
kirdaar khud ubhar ke kahaani mein aayegaa
(Iqbal Sajid)
Aks – reflection
Kirdaar – character
“jis ke paas koyi saboot nahin hota, kya wo kabhi beqasoor nahi ho sakta.”
This is the dialogue spoken by Meenakshi Sheshadri to Anil Kapoor, a lawyer, when he has refused to take her sister’s Beena’s case. Meenakshi’s sister is a doctor and a patient dies in her private clinic, after she has administered a medicine to the patient. The medicine contains poison, and the bottle is already in the custody of the courts/police. There is no way anyone can prove that the patient did not die because of the medicine in that bottle. So all the lawyers are refusing the case and Meenakshi and the brother in law Parikshit Sahani, also a doctor, are running from pillar to post to find a lawyer who can defend Beena in the court.

I have been meaning to write a post on Majrooh Sultanpuri for some months now to commemorate the 100th birth Anniversary of a poet and film song writer par excellence. But as usual one puts somethings on back burner and postpones things for some other time.
Last week I started the lyrics of this song from ‘Qayaamat Se Qayaamat Tak’ (1988), incidentally on my iPad and saved the file in yahoo mail. But that file is not opening in the any of the computers, so this post again didn’t even start. Today is 1st October, 2019. A very nice post by Sadanad Kamath Sir has appeared in the blog, which is quiet inspiring and it gave fresh ammunition to my jaded thoughts to start this write up.

Mohammed Rafi : The Incomparable (II) – Song No. 14
———————————————————-
Remembering Mohammed Rafi Sahab on his 39th death anniversary :
No need to keep a reminder in the mobile. I come across Rafi Sahab’s name or reference to or one of his songs every day. The figure is at 2955/4845 on the blog’s stats page. The excel sheet of Rafi Sahab’s songs that I have says total 5373 songs. The difference between the two figures is more than 500 songs.

[Ed Note: With sincere apologies to the author and the readers. This write up was delivered to the editors much in advance of the blog anniversary date. It is our oversight that we missed posting it on 19th July. The lapse is regretted.]
As the blog turns 11 today, we can celebrate the first step in the double digit age milestone. Numerilogically, 11 means 1+1=2 . Does this mean second stage of second phase ? Or 11 simply means gyarah number ki bus. Mumbaikar’s know that gyarah number bus means ‘to walk on two feet’. Walking walking we have reached the 15000 plus figuratively.
So. . . its “Chalte Chalte Mere Ye Geet Yaad Rrakhna. . . Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna. . . Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna. . .“

Mohammed Rafi : The Incomparable (II) – Song No. 12
———————————————————-
This particular ghazal, as some other Mirza Ghalib ghazals, has been sung by various singers. Some of the famous renditions by KL Sehgal Sb, Suraiyya and also by Jaddanbai are already posted in the blog:
https://atulsongaday.me/2012/11/20/nuktaa-cheen-hai-gham-e-dil/ KL Sehgal (‘Yahudi Ki Ladki’, 1933)
https://atulsongaday.me/2010/04/17/nukta-cheen-hai-gham-e-dil/ Jaddanbai (Non-Film song, 1930)
https://atulsongaday.me/2011/03/13/nukta-cheen-hai-gham-e-dil-2/ Suraiyya (‘Mirza Ghalib’, 1954)
Another rendition of the golden era is yet to find its way into the blog, so here is the Rafi Sahab rendition. This is a very small simple ghazal with only the four sha’irs being rendered.
