हाँ भई, होली हो और गीतों में रंग न हो तो, तो क्या मज़ा है, हाँ?
बस, भला हो उस ऊपर से ideas देने वाले का। गाने में एक से ज़्यादा आवाज़ हो तो पंक्तियों को color code कर दो। और फिर देखो गीत की लाईनें पढ़ने का मज़ा। और होली के दिन तो बस मज़ा रंगदार गीतों का ही है। सो, पेश है एक ऐसा ही रंगदार पंक्तियों वाला गीत – होली भी और रंग भी, दोनों ही गीत में गुथे हुये मिल गए।
होली मुबारक

Greetings all friends and readers, for a wonderful and colorful festival of Holi today.
The title of this song says very aptly, ‘Holi Phir Se Aa Gayee Re’. It is once again, that time of the year – the weather is really starting to get warm in the sub continent. The cold winds from the north have given way to pleasant breezes of spring, and the time duration between the sunrise and the sunset is getting longer and longer. The colors of spring are just past their peak in the gardens, and today is the last day of the month of ‘Phalgun’ as per the Hindu calendar. Which means it is going to be a full moon tonight, and tomorrow starts the month of ‘Chaitra’.

Saat rang mein khel rahi hai

On the occasion of Holi today, which is the fourth Holi for this blog, here is a Holi song from “Aakhir Kyon” (1985). The time from 1980s onwards was when my period of blackout from Hindi movies had begun, so it comes as no surprise that I am not much familiar with the music of those days. Personally I came across this Holi song just now and I found it quite a hummable and danceable song.

Singh, Om Prakash, Tiwari, Bhagwan, Sunder, Manmohan Krishna, Leela Misra, Randhir, Mukri, Keshto Mukherjee etc in it. Now we know why the movie was obscure despite being a recent movie :).

Kidar Sharma ‘Hasrat’, the famous lyricist, writer and filmmaker, recounts his association with Saigal Saab, while working on the film Tansen and Bhanwara. It was early 40s, and Saigal Saab was still associated with the New Theatres in Calcutta on a contract basis. Chandulal Shah of Ranjit Movietone (Bombay) planned the film Tansen, and the obvious choice for the title role was Saigal Saab. After some negotiations with New Theatres, Chandulal Shah obtained permission for having Saigal Saab work temporarily with Ranjit Movietone. The understanding was for a fixed period of time, and not for completing an assignment.
