Hullo Atuldom
At the outset I would like to wish the blog & the Brain behind the blog on completion of 20000 posts, with this special post by Sudhirji. It was a song from 1931 film, just like the song with post number 10000.
I clearly remember the wait for the post number 10000, it was the rainy season of 2014 – July 20th, 2014 to be precise; a day after the blog’s sthapana diwas.
Congratulations to Atulji, Sudhirji, and the brigade of contributors led by our In-House Encyclopedia – Sri. Arunkumar Deshmukhji (whose personal score stands at 1823 at the time of writing this post). Having this many posts which give details about the films, artists, background of the particular song with accurate lyrics and accompanying video is no small feat. What began as Atulji’s effort to bring good songs onto the worldwide web (or cyberspace) with accurate lyrics has turned into a library/ a reference point for seekers.
Congratulations once again to the blog & atulites and I feel great that I am a part of it.

“Suhaag” (1979) was a film produced by Rajinder Kumar Sharma, Ramesh Sharma, Shakti Subhash Sharma, Prakash Trehan and directed by Manmohan Desai. The story writer was Prayag Raj, K.K. Shukla was the screenplay writer & the dialogues carried the trademark of Kadar Khan – every dialogue in the film matched the mood that Manji (as Manmohan Desai was fondly addressed by his friends & admirers) envisioned for his films. Laxmikant-Pyarelal were the music directors for songs that were written by Anand Bakshi. Shailendra Singh, Mohd Rafi, Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle, Anwar were the playback singers used for the songs. The song ‘main toh beghar hoon’ had Shashi Kapoor mouth a few words, hence he is also credited in the list of playback singers.

It has been four years today, to the date to be exact, since the lovers of Indian music lost their beloved Lata Mangeshkar. When I say Indian music I mean Bhav-geet, Film Sangeet, Bhajans and any other genres that we can think of. Lata Didi, as she was addressed by the multitude of her followers, was the go-to voice (a modern day term for first choice) of all music composers across generations. Lata Mangeshkar’s voice was the that one heard on waking up through the various bhajans played in the morning hours. If the listener was a fan of Hindi film songs then it would be any song from ‘jyothi kalash chhalke’, ‘jaago mohan pyaare’, almost all the songs of Raj Kapoor’s ‘Satyam Shivam Sundaram’ (if one is of the newer generation) or any of the numerous bhajans that exist in the non-film category.

This post is thanks to the reminder that came from an Atulite (on Whatsapp), that today would have been the 100th birthday of Omkar Prasad Nayyar better known as O.P.Nayyar to the film- music- loving public.
O.P. Nayyar was born in Lahore, which is now in Pakistan, on 16th January 1926 as one among four sons. According to information on the internet, all his brothers are doctors. He was married to Saroj Nayyar who was a stage dancer when she met OPN who was at that time a singer at Lahore Radio Station. The Nayyars are parents to three daughters and a son. One of his granddaughters or grand niece, Niharica Raizada an actress, was born in Luxembourg, was seen in the Rohit Shetty directed ‘Sooryavanshi’ in 2021 & ‘Total Dhamaal’ (2018) a Inder Kumar directed film.
O P Nayyar was active in the film world from 1949 when he gave the background score for ‘Kaneez’. Dalsukh Pancholi’s ‘Aasman’ (1952) was his first as music director. ‘Zid’ (1994) directed by Esmayeel Shroff was the last film with OPN’s music.
In between 1952 & 1994 (almost 42 years) OPN’s music was heard in 73 Hindi movies (according to this post by Atulji.
That post also gives the number of O.P. Nayyar songs yet to be posted as 97. Since then (2018) we have added 37 more songs i.e. around 60 filmy songs are yet to be posted.

Back after a year of inactivity. My last post was on 27th December 2025. Since then the calendar has changed and we are into 2026- a New Year. Even if the gap has been of only a few days, it feels like I have been away forever- feels like an Year of Inactivity. 🙂
“Inspector” (1956) was a film that had 9 songs with the song ‘dil chhed koi aisa naghma’ having two versions – in Hemant Kumar’s & Lata Mangeshkar’s voices. The following songs of the film are present on the blog:-

21st December is the birthday of an actor who made his debut in films in 1986. Though the first film he signed was ‘Tan Badan’, first film for which he started shooting was ‘Love 86’ in June of 1985. ‘Ilzaam’ (release date 28th February 1986) & ‘Love 86’ (release date 14th February 1986) released before his firstsigned ‘Tan Badan’ (release date 25th April 1986).
He was born as the youngest of 5 children and was given the pet name ‘Chi-Chi’ (meaning little finger). His father was former actor Aroon (alias Arun Kumar Ahuja) and singer-actress Nirmala Devi was his mother. He belongs to an ethnically mixed family, as, through his father, his grandfather was Punjabi while his grandmother was Sindhi, but he himself identifies more with his Punjabi side. His paternal side ancestry can be traced to Gujranwala in undivided India & his maternal side had its roots in Varanasi, U.P.
