We have read about Emperor Akbar having nine officials of extra-ordinary skills and calibres in various fields in his court who were called ‘navratnas’ (nine gems). Music director, Rahul Dev Burman also had ‘navratnas’ in his ‘musical court’. In fact, some of his fans put the numbers ‘ratnas’ close to hundred. Nonetheless, if I have to confine the numbers to ‘navratnas’ in his musical team having specialisation in various fields of music, they were Marutirao Keer (Tabla, Percussion), Basu Chakravarty (Cello), Manohari Singh (Clarinet, Flute), Bhanu Gupta (Harmonica, Rhythm Guitar), Bhupinder Singh (Guitar), Homi Mullan (Duggi, Secondary Percussions), Devichand Chauhan (Dholak, Tabla), Amritrao Katkar (Tabla, Secondary Percussions), and Ranjit Gazmer (Maadal). They were the core team of musicians who exclusively worked for S D Burman and R D Burman. It was only when they had spare time from Burman’s assignments, some of them did work for other music directors.

Today’s song is from a C grade costume film ‘Aan Baan’ (1956).
I was in two minds while searching for songs of this film on YouTube. Firstly, whenever I tried to find a song of this film, invariably YouTube presented songs from the film ‘Aan Baan’ made in 1972. After getting tired of this behaviour of YT, I got an idea and I asked for songs from ‘Aan Baan’ (1972). Lo and behold ! YT promptly gave me songs from ‘Aan Baan’ (1956) ! I was in a fix whether to pat my back for this idea or to curse YT for its dumbness.

Today’s song is from the stunt film Miss Good Night-(1960).
C grade stunt and action films were popular in a section of society, all over India, right from the Silent film era. This type of ” Maar-Dhaad ” films reached the Popularity peak during the 40s and the 50s, but by the beginning of 1961 onwards such films were less popular and within a few years the C grade stunt/action films were a thing of the past.

Hullo Atuldom
19th June is the birthday of actor Raj Kiran. He will be 73 today.
Recently I saw Mahesh Bhatt’s ‘Arth’ (1982) and I thought such a good-looking person. He was playing the part of Raj who falls in love with the recently jilted Pooja (Shabana Azmi); that was an odd pairing. But they looked good together. Raj Kiran had made his debut in 1975 through BR Ishara’s ‘Kaagaz Ki Nao’ with Sarika as his co-star. His next release was ‘Shiksha’ (1978) which was directed by S Ramanathan. It was produced by Tarachand Barjatya – meaning Rajshri productions.

We all have heard of World Happiness Index. We have heard about it because this index gives India a very low rating. People in India who believe in this rating ironically do not believe in ratings that show India in good light. On the other hand, there are people who wonder how India can be ranked so low when we see countries that appear in far more distress than India ranked higher than India.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No.109
————————————————————————————–
On this date ten years ago (3 May 2013), five songs from five different movies (plus one non Film song) were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-
| Post No | Song Title | Name of the movie | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8026 | Ratiyaan guzaaroon kaise | Ratnawali(1945) | 5 songs covered out of 8 by now |
| 8027 | Man mein naachen man ki umangen | Beqasoor (1950) | Movie YIPPEED in the blog by now |
| 8028 | Peepal taley ghar mera | Jeewan Saathi(1957) | 4 songs covered out of 8 by now |
| 8029 | Jo dil ki tadap na jaane | Saawan Ki Ghata (1966) | Movie YIPPEED in the blog with this song |

| 8030 | Na na na na na jaane na doongi | Priyatma(1977) | Movie YIPPEED in the blog by now |
We observe that three movies (out of five), whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (on 3 May 2013) have since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with two unYIPPEED movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (3 May 2023).
“Ratnavali”(1945) is one of the two unYIPPEED movies.
