The song in this post should have, ideally, been posted yesterday or the day before. But like the phrase says ‘Better Late Than Never’. And, I am not giving any excuses for the delay. 🙂

The song features the Ever- not Green- but Young (at heart) Dev Anand in what was his last lead role in a film that was neither produced nor directed by him. Prior to this, he had acted in ‘Amir Garib’ in 1975, which was produced & directed by Mohan Kumar.

‘Chandamama’ was a children’s monthly magazine known for its illustrations, long running mythological and magical stories. I was a huge fan of it & used to be gifted with a copy of it, as reward, for good showing in curricular & co-curricular activities. I had a collection of those books along with a few editions of Champak, Phantom, Mandrake, Tarzan & Amar Chitra Katha, like most children of those times.

Remembering Nirmala Nagpal today on her birth anniversary. She was born in Mumbai (Bombay back then) on 22nd November 1948. That gives us an idea that she must have been hardly 9 or 10 years of age when she danced in the chorus of the famous club-scene songs of “Howrah Bridge” (1958). She was just 3 years when she appeared in some films as baby Shyama & was a background (chorus) dancer in the late 1950s. She was all of 13 (not unusual for those times, I think) when she married the much-married & father of four -B. Sohanlal- a popular choreographer of that period. The couple separated in a few years but not before she had borne three children. Later, she married a businessman Sardar Roshan Khan, adopted Islam & changed her name to Saroj Khan – a name that gave her work & fame and was known by till she passed away on 3rd July 2020; due to cardiac arrest.

A few months back our in-house encyclopedia a.k.a Shri. Arunkumar Deshmukhji had given us a post. This post gave us information about the various actors, down the years, who were connected to successful artists of the film industry but who’s career could not proceed beyond their first few films. That list included Raj Kapoor’s son Rajeev Kapoor, Premnath’s brothers etc. I can add numerous names of the current generation, who had successful first films & medium-success in their next few films but could not produce hit films later in their career- IMO the biggest example being Kumar Gaurav (no hard feelings, I was mighty impressed by him in “Love Story” so many years back.

“Sirf Tum”- 1999 released; was a pure, soft romantic film. It was different from regular love stories. It had Sanjay Kapoor playing Deepak Rai & Priya Gill played Aarti. They never meet each other in person till the last scene. They get to know of each other through a strange incident. Deepak finds a bag/ envelope containing a girl’s certificates, bio-data etc. He finds the girl’s address and sends it by speed-post to her. Aarti is relieved on getting her documents & she sends him a “thank you” letter. This starts a chain of letters between the two. Deepak is employed in a firm that is headed by Neha (Sushmita Sen). She is impressed by Deepak and his straight-forwardness. She reveals her feelings for Deepak – to him. But he tells her that he is in love with a girl called Aarti whom he has never met. It is a story of “love that starts from the heart & not from the eye”.

We are in the month of November. This month sees a few beautiful ladies, who were crowned Miss India & also, who went on to grace the Silver Screen of Bollywood celebrate their birthdays. I am sure there would have been such beauties gracing other industries of regional cinema too, but my mind is a stuck on the Miss India/s of Hindi Films. A few days back it was Juhi Chawla & Aishwarya Rai’s birthdays, Zeenat Aman & Sushmita Sen’s will follow.

Jaspinder Narula- a singer who is trained in Punjabi music, bhajans & Sufiana compositions initially stayed away from film singing. Under advice from Kalyanji (of the Kalyanji Anandji duo) she moved to Bombay (now Mumbai). Kalyanji’s son & music director Viju Shah, Anu Malik & Nadeem Shravan gave her, her first songs in ‘Bade Miyan Chote Miyan’; ‘Virasat’ and ‘Judaai’ respectively. She has sung around 150-200 songs in Hindi films. She has a unique voice that has a ‘good throw’; in the same fashion as Usha Uthup or Shamshad Begum. I don’t know if I am able to express my thoughts, regarding the voice quality she has correctly, but hearing today’s song will, hopefully, help me put my point across.
