What is global capitalism theory?

Global capitalism refers to the concept of a global economy dominated by globalizing corporations and those who own and control them, operating beyond national boundaries and interests.

What are the three theories of capitalism?

These include laissez-faire or free-market capitalism, state capitalism, and welfare capitalism. Different forms of capitalism feature varying degrees of free markets, public ownership, obstacles to free competition, and state-sanctioned social policies.

What are the 4 types of capitalism?

In our analysis, we found it useful to classify capitalist economies into four categories: oligarchic capitalism, state-guided capitalism, big-firm capitalism, and entrepreneurial capitalism.

*******************************************

The above is just to get to the idea of “Bade log” in todays context. We are in the middle of third decade of 21st century, a quarter of which we all have seen/ lived through.

Alhamdullillah for everything, the grand plan of the Almighty takes shape in the ways he ordains. We humans must just bear it, as we cannot change anything. We can try and equip ourselves, using the faculties granted by the Almighty, to deal with the things destined. With wisdom, dignity, patience, and faith.

We are grappling as a human race, with fears of food shortages, natural calamities like wildfires, unnatural calamities like a nuclear war, plus the biggest fear of all, giving the power over fate, to the unwise, the undignified, the impatient and the faithless.

The biggest responsibility and purpose of the humans in the universe is to be worthy of its creator. We have been given the faculties, granted to no other being. This is the simple purpose of creation; scientists/thinkers/philosophers are trying to find for millennia.

This is “chhotta munh aur badi baat”, but just to state things in the proper perspective as things stand.

The song under discussion is from the film “Phandebaaz” 1978. R. D. Burman is the composer, with lyrics of Anand Bakshi. Mohammed Rafi is singing for Dharmendra and Amit Kumar is singing for Dharmendra’s partner, the actor I cannot name.

These 3 songs are posted in the blog.

Song Date of post
Dulhan khoobsurat hai.. abhi gyaarah nahin baje hain 27 May 2009
Mohabbat mein aji kya aap apna imtihaan denge 28 June 2013
Duniya mein paise binaa kaise hum jiyenge 30 December 2023

Helen is also seen in the song. The filming is done in areas of South Bombay, showing some landmark buildings and roads of the city, how it all looked in 1978. This could be the first duet song of Mohammed Rafi – Amit Kumar to feature in the blog. I had seen a photograph of Kishore Kumar sitting on the floor with a young boy next to the “maiyyat” of Rafi Sahab. It must have been taken on 1st August, 1980 at home, before the funeral procession. The boy is the younger son of Kishore Kumar, looked exactly like Amit Kumar. I mistook him for Amit Kumar. But checked recently that Amit Kumar is much older, and here he is singing duets with Rafi Sahab.

Dharmendra – Rafi songs are not over yet. More landmark songs remain to be posted. I have posted so many over the last 2 months, that a series could have been made.

His name was Lalji Pandey but his college friends gave him a pseudo name, ‘Anjaan’ while participating in mushaira in the college functions as well as elsewhere. He retained this pseudo name when he started writing articles, poems and later lyrics.

‘Baat Ban Jaaye’ (1986) was produced by Anil Hanspal and Nitin Manmohan which was directed by Bharat Rungachary. The cast included Sanjeev Kumar, Zeenat Aman, Utpal Dutt, Mithun Chakraborty, Raj Babbar, Amol Palekar, Aruna Irani, Jalal Agha, Shakti Kapoor, Adi Irani, Imtiaz Khan, Jagdeep, Prema Narayan, Viju Khote etc. The film belongs to the family comedy genre. It was the first film for Nitin Manmohan (son of actor, Manmohan) as a producer and second film as a director for Bharat Rungachary. Sanjeev Kumar passed away before the release of the film. However, he had completed all his work for the film.

The credit title of the film did not mention the names of the actors. Probably director felt that that since each actor in the film had his share of comedy, to present the film as a collective efforts of the entire cast in creating a family comedy film rather than showcasing the individual actors by mentioning their names. Incidentally, Sanjeev Kumar, Amol Palekar, Raj Babbar and Mithun Chakraborty were in the role of the prospective bridegrooms for the wealthy businesswoman, Zeenat Aman in the film.

This date 50 years ago (15 March 1975- 15 March 2025)

Today is 15 March 2025. It means that the date 50 years ago was 15 March 1975.

If one asked me what I was doing on 15 march 1975, I would have drawn a blank. But if someone informed me what major event took place on 15 march 1975 then I would be able to tell what I was doing that day.

I came to know through some online articles that 15 march 1975 was the date when India won the final of World cup Hockey and became world cup champion for the first (and till now only) time.

Today’s song is from the comedy film ” Mr. Cartoon, M.A.-” 1958.

What a coincidence ! Last Sunday, I had selected a song from this film to be discussed today (usually I line up 3-4 songs for writing posts). However, the same song was discussed by our Sadanand Kamath ji, on Monday, 3rd March. Instead of going for another film song, I selected the only remaining song from this film for today’s post. Being the last song of the film, it will make the film YIPPEED today !
