In this blog, I post gems from the golden era of Bollywood movie music, which happened to be roughly from 1950 to 1980, though I have posted songs that are from the times falling outside this era as well. Many of the songs that I have posted are well known even today, while many other songs that I have posted have become forgotten. I particularly love to post those songs which were very popular during their time but which may not be known to too many people today.

When I was growing up in a city in 1972, a new movie hall had come up and it was showing “Seeta Aur Geeta” (1972). Its song were so wonderful to listen to that I as a pre teen kid dearly wanted to watch the movie. One fine day, I dragged my elders to the movie hall to watch this movie. And what did I see ? The movie was withdrawn the previous day, and the movie “Zindagi Zindagi” (1972) was being shown instead.

“Jaalsaaz” (1959) is a forgotten movie by now. But its songs were quite nice to listen to. If these songs are not known to many then it is the loss of the listeners.

“Teen Deviyaan” (1965) was for some reason a blindspot for me, and I was not much clued in to its songs. Now I am finding out that quite a few songs, which I enjoyed listening to without knowing about their details were actually from this movie.

Roshan was a star and his grandson Hrithik Roshan is a star, but Rakesh Roshan, the father of Hrithik Roshan, was at best a middling actor, who somehow managed to make both ends meet. His career was floundering most of the time, and some timely hits would often revive his sagging fortunes.

Roshan made his debut at nearly the same time as most legendary singers (Rafi, Mukesh, Kishore Kumar etc). But is is interesting to note that Roshan used Kishore Kumar’s voice only 8 times, all all these songs were in 1952 and 1953.
