19th June is the birthday of actor Raj Kiran. He will be 73 today.

Recently I saw Mahesh Bhatt’s ‘Arth’ (1982) and I thought such a good-looking person. He was playing the part of Raj who falls in love with the recently jilted Pooja (Shabana Azmi); that was an odd pairing. But they looked good together. Raj Kiran had made his debut in 1975 through BR Ishara’s ‘Kaagaz Ki Nao’ with Sarika as his co-star. His next release was ‘Shiksha’ (1978) which was directed by S Ramanathan. It was produced by Tarachand Barjatya – meaning Rajshri productions.

As a student I have learnt, in geography, that India has three seasons:- summer, monsoon & winter. As students, summer meant vacations after the year-end examinations. This vacation used to be from mid-April to mid-June; meaning we were free for almost two months.

There is this gorgeous lady who made her debut into the Hindi film industry in a title role; the movie released on 28th September 1973. That film was commercially successful, went on to win five awards in that year’s Filmfare Awards. It helped the film’s producer- director come out of debts which he had incurred with his previous magnum-opus debacle. The content of this film was the typical Romeo-Juliet kind of romance, presented in a new style; but the commercial success was attributed to the two-fresh-faced-delightful youngsters who emoted on-screen with ease. Small wonder that they won that year’s Best Actor & Best Actress Filmfare awards.

A few songs have been playing in my head over the last few days. These are accompanied by random thoughts too. Most songs match the thoughts.

I found an old snap of me & my brother and I thought of zindagi ek safar hai suhaana. Then I was going through some more photos and saw snaps of picnics that I had enjoyed with my family, friends, schoolmates & collegemates. That put me on to ban ke panchhi gaaye pyaar ka taraana & main chali main chali dekho pyaar ki gali.

“Aakrosh” (1980) was directed by Govind Nihalani. Produced by Devi Dutt & NFDC. It had Vijay Tendulkar & Satyadev Dubey as writers; which meant that the film was either an Art film (meaning audiences fed on fantasy & escapist stories would not buy a ticket to see it) or at least a middle of the road film (meaning it showed the realities of the times in a not-so-harsh manner). I have never seen the film, so I don’t know what category it falls under. But various sites on the internet have classified “Aakrosh” as crime – drama.

Back after a gap of around one & half months.

Have been so active, doing various other activities, that for the first time, since 2009 (when I discovered the blog) and 2012 (when my first post appeared on the blog), I missed a few milestones (the 17,700th post) on the day it was posted. Also missed a post by Sudhir ji, which featured a song which I simply love to see “Wo Ladki Hai Kahaan“.

Anand Bakshi …. a poet & lyricist who was nominated for the Filmfare Best Lyricist award 40 times that resulted in 4 wins. Poetry writing was a hobby for him in his younger days which became an occasional activity after he joined the Indian Navy due to paucity of time. He came to Bombay to try his luck at writing songs and singing for films. He got his first break in a Bhagwan Dada starrer in 1958; from then he kept getting to write songs every year.

Born into the film industry. Married into another famous movie-making family. Debut film (in Hindi) with a star-son; a Khan at that. In fact, heroes in her first six films had KHAN as their last name.

I am speaking of Rani Mukherjee who was born into the Mukherjee-Samarth family. Her father Ram Mukherjee was the son of Ravindramohan Mukherjee who was Sashadhar Mukherjee’s (founder of Filmalaya studios) brother. Her mother is the playback singer Krishna Mukherjee. Additionally her brother is director Raja Mukherjee. So that is Rani’s maayka.
