Today is 4th August. We are celebrating/ remembering the maverick actor, singer, music director, producer, director of Hindi Films on his 95th birthday. I think he was first a singer who was coaxed into acting and eventually turned a producer/director of films. I think he composed songs only for films that he made. (I don’t mind if fans of his correct me 🙂 )
I am sure I need not spell specifically that I am talking of Kishore Kumar (Khandlawala).

Also, I need not mention that he was the brother of Ashok Kumar & Anup Kumar & Sati Devi who was the wife of Sashadhar Mukherjee (founder of Filmalaya Studios). It is common knowledge that all his four wives were actresses & his son Amit Kumar is also a singer/actor/ music composer.

1st August is the date when Meena Kumari was born as Mahjabeen Bano.

She had a career spanning 33 years, starting as a child artist in 1939. At a young age of 5 she became the bread-winner of her family. Fans of Meena Kumari know that she went on to adult roles from 1946 when she appeared in ‘Bachchon Ka Khel’ & ‘Duniya Ek Sarai’. ‘Baiju Bawra’ & ‘Parineeta’ helped her gain prominence as an actress. Till the late 1950s she had acted in films ranging from drama to comedy to fantasy before “Chiraag Kahaan Roshni Kahan”; “Main Chup Rahungi” & such other movies earned her ‘tragedy-queen’ sobriquet. Personally I liked her ‘chulbuli’ characters in “Miss Mary”, “Kohinoor”, “Azaad” etc.

There have been three posts today, by Avinashji, an ardent fan of the Panchamda a.k.a. R. D. Burman- a music director who was a favorite of an entire generation of Film Music lovers. Avinashji’s posts are accompanied by songs of 1974, 1984 & 1989 – I heard those three songs for the 1st time today. Thank you Avinashji & Atulji.

In 2019, I had posted a song from Fiza (2000) to wish Karisma Kapoor on her birthday. At that time, I read somewhere that it was on 24th of June. Subsequently, I have been seeing that various entertainment channels on television & media have been putting out birthday specials of Karisma on 25th June.

Even this morning MTV & other such music channels were playing Lolo (Karisma’s pet name) specials. So here is my own Lolo special.
