#The Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #

In this post I am presenting a song from the 1970 movie ‘Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi’.

“Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi-1970” was produced for ‘Vasu Films’, Madras, by Vasu Menon. It was directed by V. Madhusudana Rao. It had Sanjay Khan, Leena Chandavarkar, Jagdeep, Anupama, Manmohan Krishna, Sundar, N. S. Bedi, Sharma, Pratima Devi, Bilkis, Shamim, Lalita Pawar, Shashikala, Om Prakash, Madhumati, Jayshree T. As per information available the story of this movie was written by Barampuram Kollady. Its’ dialogues were written by Rajinder Krishan who also penned down the lyrics for the seven songs in this movie. Music of this film was composed by R.D. Burman. The playback singers for this movie are Asha Bhonsle, Kishore Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar, Manna Dey, Mohd Rafi, and Usha Mangeshkar. I guess that this movie was not a successful movie of its time and hence its’ songs remain as lesser-known songs and they were also forgotten easily.

For my next song we turn to a Lata Mangeshkar melody – “Sultana Mera Naam Hai” from Sangram (1976) which is a lively cabaret-style dance number composed by Bappi Lahiri with lyrics by Gauhar Kanpuri. It is a nightclub-oriented songs and reflects the changing musical trends of the mid-1970s, when Western rhythms and cabaret sequences had become popular in Hindi cinema.

Musically, the song combines a strong dance beat with brass instrumentation and a catchy refrain. Bappi Lahiri’s arrangement is energetic but not yet as disco-driven as the style he would become famous for a few years later. Instead, it sits somewhere between the traditional Hindi film cabaret of the 1960s and the emerging disco sound of the late 1970s.

It was in early may (5 may 2026 to be precise) when the blog reached its previous century (blog post number 20200). Today,we are still in the month of may 2026, and we find ourselves reaching next century (blog post number 20300). Two centuries in the same month ! It is like two full moon days in the same month. 🙂

It must be said that reaching two centuries in a month was fairly common for the blog, but the last time this feat was achieved was in February 2018. Prior to that it was achieved in March 2017 and January 2015. This was very common before that. There were as manty as 34 such occasions before 2015. The month of April 2013 was extra special. As many as three century posts were published that month (on 1 april, 14 april and 28 april)! Those were the days when we used to score centuries in 13 and 14 days. The fastest century in the blog is scored in 11 days (song post number 4600 on 9 september 2011).

25 days for a century at a rate of 4 songs a day is quite decent by our present rate of posting. Unlike in the past, most posts now a days are guest posts. It shows that the blog has now firmly become an online collaboration of likeminded music lovers.
