#The Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
—————————————————————————

Today 24th October 2025 is the fourteenth remembrance day of the legendary singer Manna Dey ( Real name Prabodh Chandra Dey). He was born on 01.05.1919 and he passed away on 24.10.2013.

Music lovers here are already aware about him and much has already been written about his greatness and versatility as a singer, so I am not going to repeat it all here again. But I would definitely like to mention here that I am a big fan of his singing and I have always enjoyed and cherished listening to the songs sung by Manna Dey, whichever genre they are from – classical, semi-classical, sugam sangeet or qawwaalees etc. He has also sung many songs which fall under the category of philosophical songs and ‘songs with a message’.

Today I am presenting one such rare song here. This song is a rare song because it is from an un-released movie of the seventies. I don’t know how many of us have listened to this song. I came across this song around two-three years back and I had mentioned this while presenting another song from this same un-released movie here on the blog earlier.

#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
—————————————————————

‘Hans Ke Jiyo-1950’ (or 1941-1950) was an unreleased movie from the decades of 1941-1950. As per information available in Geet Kosh Vol-II (1941-1950) this movie was made in the decade of 1941-1950. But, there is very less information available about this movie. The name of the production banner for this movie is mentioned as D.M.G. Films. Director of this movie is not mentioned. Likewise, no information is available about the cast of this movie. However Geet Kosh lists seven songs for this movie with singer’s name for each song. Again the lyricist name for the individual songs is mentioned for two songs only which is Chhabi Kumar ‘Mast’, and rest songs have been left blank against the lyricist’s name. The singers list for this movie includes Sulochana Kadam, Sadashiv Gujar, Suman Purohit, and Vinod Kumar.

#the Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
———————————————————————

Today 14th November is celebrated as ‘children’s day’ in our country. It is also the birthday of our first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. He was very fond of children. While earlier every 14th November was celebrated being the birthday of Jawaharlal Nehru it was in 1954 that it was first time celebrated as ‘children’s day’ too. I was looking for a song for this occasion and I thought of this song which I like very much. It is from the movie “Hum Bachche Hindustaan Ke-1984”. In 1983-1985 I was staying at Akola with my grandparents. I was studying at Akola for my Std. 11th -12th. There we had a group of friends that also doubled as our cricket playing group. We used to watch ‘Chitrahaar’ on the ‘black and white-TV’ at the home of one of our friends home who was lucky to have TV at his home those days. 🙂

Today’s song is from an obscure film Deep Jalta Rahe-1959.

I said ‘obscure film’ because no one remembers this film today. Actually this film was made by a well known banner like Filmistan, it was directed by a skilled director like Datta Dharmadhikari, music was by Roshan and the cast too had good actors. Still, the film remained a flop at the Box office. The reason was its story. The mid 50’s onwards the period was when the people looked at the films as entertainment with lilting music. This film had neither of these. Perhaps the makers forgot that films with a tragic end, separation of lovers and a weak story by current standards was not accepted by the audience.

Hullo Atuldom

Jackie Shroff made his debut as a leading man in 1983 through the Subhash Ghai directed “Hero”. Following its success he was signed up for ‘Teri Meherbaniyan’, ‘Yudh’, ‘Karma’, ‘Shiva ka Insaaf ‘ etc. Of these, ‘Shiva Ka Insaaf’ that released in 1985 was advertised as India’s first 3-D movie. Additionally, it had the hero donning a cape ‘a la Zorro’. As far as story was concerned (as I can recall) it was as follows:-

Today’s song is a song sung by Madhubala Jhaveri, for the film Jeevan Sathi-1957.

This film had a criss-cross and a jumble of lovers. The imagination of the story writer was stretched to the maximum to get the criss-crossed loving pairs together by the end of the film. It was a story unique by itself and I guess such a thing would never happen in real life. The film was produced by Dhanwant Shah under his own banner- D.S.Films, Bombay. It was directed by R.S.Tara and the music was by Bulo C Rani with the assistant C.Arjun- a composer in the making.

Today (26 January 2024) is Republic Day of India.

India became a republic on 26 January 1950. That was easily a red letter day in the history of Modern India. It was on this day that India decided to be a country that would be a democracy where each citizen, irrespective of his caste, creed, religion, gender, economic status etc would enjoy equality without discrimination. The country would be governed according to the acts of Indian constitution that was adopted on this date.
