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

Greetings to all for the on-going ‘Ganesh Utsav’ which is being celebrated all over!!!

Eight days of the festival have already passed since its beginning on 19th this month. The Ganpati Idols scheduled for ‘one and half day’, ‘three days’, ‘five days’ and ‘seven days’ have already been ‘bid farewell’ with a request to the god ‘to come early next year’.

God Ganesh is also revered as a god of ‘performing arts’ besides being the god of ‘wisdom’, ‘riddhi-siddhi’, and the god of ‘scribes’ and ‘authors’. This festival is the time when we have music, cultural programs, musical programs, plays staged, and offering of the prayers to the god with full emotions and energy.

For people like me, who grow in the seventies and early eighties, the Ganesh Festival is also the time when we are lost in the nostalgia of our growing years. That is visiting the community club for ‘Ganesh Pooja’, and enjoying the programs held there over the next ten or eleven days. I still vividly remember that the first day there would be the ‘sthhaapna’ of Ganesh Idol and a devotional musical program. And the last day would be ‘Satyanarayan Kathaa’ and ‘mahaa prasaad’. As a child we were always interested in the ‘prasaad’ and the ‘modaks’ of various types. (For that matter even after growing and still, that is the thing most of the family members are interested even now 🙂 ). In between the first and the last day of the festival there were several programs held which were staged at the ‘colony club’ we were staying then. These included plays, orchestras, mimicry program, a cultural program for all who can participate and present their art, if possible screening of a movie (mostly a movie from a black & white era and if the ‘budget’ permitted then there would also be a color movie or movie from recent years 🙂 ). Since my parents would participate in ‘Marathi plays’ that is the first thing that we would eagerly await along with the rehearsals, and secondly the ‘orchestras or the ‘musical night’ and ‘movies’.

This is the festival which brings back many memories of the HFM songs that were popular then and also the many songs which would be common for all ‘orchestra groups’. These would be songs from ‘yesteryears’ or from the ‘golden era of HFM’. The film and non-film qawwalis were an added attraction. Couple of ‘orchestra groups’ which were repeated visitors to our colony festivals also had our favorite singers among them whom we were happy to watch singing again and again. I am not going to repeat the list of all the songs here, but here I would definitely like to mention the following songs which were common to all orchestra groups which I can recall. There were many others, which I am not remembering now. 🙂

‘kuhu kuhu boley koyaliyaa’
‘moraa naadaan baalmaa’
‘chhotisi umar mein hai lag gaya rog’
‘ o door ke musaafir ham ko bhi saath le le re’
‘suhaani raat dhhal chuki’
‘yaalaa yaalaa dil le gayi’
‘jhoom baraabar jhoom sharaabi’
‘saj rahi gali meri maa’
‘ham kisi se kam nahin’
‘govindaa aalaa re aalaa’
‘satyam shivam sundaram’
‘mere nainaa saawan bhaado’
‘chadhhta sooraj dheere dheere’
‘khaike paan banaraswala’
‘chal chal chal mere saathi’ etc etc …

There would be some Marathi songs also which were played then regularly. The joy of all this that is the ‘Sarvajanik Ganesh Utsav’ was discontinued after our shifting to another place and simultaneously after my joining a ‘construction company’ to work. And thereafter staying away in other parts of the country for job got it all into the history of my life. I am not aware if these types of programs are still held during this festival at the place we were staying from 1968 to 1984. I think it must have all become a party of history now after the ‘TV’ or ‘internet’ age. But in turn the internet has also been helpful in unearthing lost gems that were created in HFM. Today I bring to you one such song from an obscure movie.

Today’s song is from the ‘1984’ movie ‘Poster’. I was not aware of a movie with this ‘title’ but very recently I came across this movie title while looking for Ganpati Songs and when I listened to this song I felt it like a familiar composition heard many years back, may be in the eighties, and never heard thereafter. So I am presenting this song today which is sung by Mahendra Kapoor and accompanied by chorus.

As per information available in Geet Kosh Vol-6 (1981-1985) this movie ‘Poster-1984’ (passed by Censor Board on 31.03.1984) was directed by R.S. Vikal. He also wrote the screenplay of this movie. This movie was produced by R.K. Gupta for ‘Virat Chitralok’, Bombay/Delhi. The cast of this movie included Zareena Wahab, Vasant Josalkar, Deepak Uchani, Raja Bundela, Ravi Vaswani, Pratap Patanjali, Ran Singh Sejwal, Banwari Taneja, Narayan Thakur, Shobha, R.K. Gupta, Meena Thakur and others. B.M. Shah and Panchanand Pathak had a special appearance in this movie.

This movie has seven songs written by Dr Shankar Shesh and R.S. Vikal. Though Geet Kosh does not mention the lyricist name for individual songs it does mentions that most of the songs for this movie were written by Dr Shankar Shesh. Music for this movie was composed by Gopal Jwala. The playback singers for this movie were Mahendra Kapoor and Chandrani Mukherjee.

The name of the music director Gopal Jwala is new to me and so far from the information available on internet this is the only movie mentioned where music is composed by him.

However, the name of Dr Shankar Shesh must be familiar to knowledgeable readers. He was a playwright and had written story & dialogues for movies too. Dr Shankar Shesh was born in Bilaspur on 2nd October’1933 and he passed away on 28th November’1981. He was known as a multifaceted and gifted writer. He started his writing with writing poems first when he was studying in eighth standard in school. He was a brilliant student and a good orator too but he was not interested in Maths and Science. He would write poems and recite them in school programs. He studied up to Intermediate at Bilaspur and for further studies in BA Honors he took admission in the Hislop College at Nagpur. His writings flourished in his college days and the ‘writer’ and ‘poet’ in him reached new dimensions there. His poem ‘mitra ke naam paati’ become famous. Simultaneously he participated in ‘Kavi Sammelans’ and also become a name on ‘Radio’ (aakaash vaani). He did plays and wrote his first play ‘Moortikaar’ (or Murtikaar (1955)). Around the same time he wrote the novel ‘Tendu Ke Patte’ on the backdrop of Chhattisgarh. He wrote novels like ‘Chetna’, ‘Dharmakshetre-Kurukshetre’, and plays like ‘Bin Baati Ke Deep (1958), ‘Til Ka Taad (1958), ‘Baadhh Ka Paani (1968)’, ‘Khajuraho Ka Shilpi (1970), ‘Ek aur Dronacharya’(1971),‘Fandi(1971), ‘Raktabeej(1976)’, ‘Poster(1977), Gharonda’(1978), ‘Komal Gandhar’ (1979), ‘Dooriyaan’(1981), and others. Directors like B.V. Karanth, Arvind Deshpande, Satyadev Dubey, Mushtaq Kak, Ashok Goswami and others staged many of the plays written by Dr Shankar Shesh.

Movies were made on his stories ‘Gharonda-1977’ and ‘Dooriyaan-1979’ where the movies came first and the staging of these plays was made later. He also wrote dialogues for the movie ‘Solvaan Saawan-1978’ and ‘Dooriyaan-1979’. The movie ‘Dooriyaan-1979’ also fetched him the ‘Filmfare Award’ for Best Story.

Dr Shankar Shesh loved his home land Chhatisgarh and its culture very much.

He was a voracious reader too and read wide ranging books, literature in English, Hindi and Marathi. His thoughtfulness and contemplation has reflections in his writings and in the various characters of his stories or plays. He also translated plays for children. His plays got famous on stage and were aired on ‘Radio’ and ‘TV’ frequently. He especially wrote play ‘Chehre’ (1977) for ‘Doordarshan’. His plays have also been translated in many languages. His various research works include ‘Language Issue In India’, ‘Kaamkaazi Hindi’, ‘Hindi Kahaani Ka Vikaas Pramukh Kathaakaar’, ‘Rachnavali’, ‘Marathi Kahaani aur Pramukh Kathaakaar’ etc. He also studied the language ‘Tulu’ and wrote a book on it when he was doing his post-graduation. He also wrote the plays ‘Hindi Ka Bhoot’, ‘Nagpuri Hindi’ when the ‘rashtrabhaashaa Hindi’ movement was around.

Dr Shankar Shesh’s professional journey started from Nagpur as a Professor of Hindi in ‘Morris College’ (which is known as Nagpur University now). After that he went to Rewa (M.P) and from there to Shahdol. During these days he wrote the poem “Sangi Chal Bhillai Jaavo”. During these years there was a thing associated with him that he would not stay at any location for more than three years. Even in Shahdol where he stayed for five years he would shift his residence to various locations in the city.

From Shahdol he shifted to Bhopal, and finally to Bombay in the seventies as a ‘Chief Officer (Rajbhaashaa Vibhaag) in State Bank of India. During this period he wrote the “Hindi Banking Shabdkosh”.
After coming to Bombay he got to interact with Hindi Film personalities and that is when movies were made on his stories and plays. Director Bhimsain made ‘Gharonda’ after listening to his story which Dr Shankar Shesh used to discuss with his friends after writing a play.

However his untimely death prevented some more movies on his stories which were in the pipeline. It is mentioned in his life sketch that Shashi Kapoor was interested in making a movie on ‘Ek Aur Dronacharya’ and also the great V. Shantaram had got the manuscript of ‘Khajuraho Ka Shilpi’. But that could not happen because of his death.

Among his sons all got education in engineering. After passing away of Dr Shankar Shesh and his wife (around 2015), his son Sanjay is continuing to promote his plays and also new playwriters through ‘Shankar Shesh Foundation Trust’.

The story of today’s movie ‘Poster-1984’ is based on tribal area of Bastar (Chhatisgarh). Dr Shankar Shesh had travelled a lot in Bastar for understanding the lives of the people there and the problems faced by them. As mentioned in one of the articles on him his play ‘Poster’ revolves around an innocent incident, which leads to a revolution in a small village. He created a wonderful play by using traditional “Kirtankaar’s style” (storytellers), using songs and music to tell the story.

A poster creates a huge fuss that changes the lives of the villagers. In this play the tribals oppose the exploitation of the rights by the landlords and Government. But a small spark leads to a big fire and a small incident make the people realise their power and fight for their rights in the society.

In today’s song we can see Dr Shankar Shesh mentioning about the ‘labour’ or ‘shram’ and also taking a dig at the prevailing societal conditions and political leaders which was his wont and featured prominently in his writings.

Only the audio of today’s song is available. Also I could not find this movie ‘Poster-1984’ available online. I would request knowledgeable readers who have watched this movie to share more about this movie, and its songs.

Let us now enjoy this wonderful song in the voice of Mahendra Kapoor.

With this song the movie ‘Poster-1984’ makes its debut on the blog and lyricist Dr Shankar Shesh and music composer Gopal Jwala also makes their debut on this blog today.

Hullo Atuldom

The ‘Chaturthi’ after the Amavasya of the month of Bhadrapada is the date on which we celebrate Ganesh Chaturthi or Vinayaka Chaturthi (as it is called in South India). Bhadrapada being the sixth month of the Hindu calendar, Chaturthi being the fourth day after the New Moon (Amavasya) or the Full Moon (Purnima). This year i.e. 2022 this date corresponded to 30th August of the gregorian calendar. Here I would like to say that Ganesh Chaturthi happens to be the celebration of the God’s birth.

Devotees of The Elephant-headed god, Shri Ganesha, bring home clay idols of the Lord, do pooja over one & half, three, five or ten days. People of Maharashtra, Telengana, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka etc (I don’t know about other parts of the country) also bring home idols of the mother- goddess in the form of ‘Gauri’ and worship the mother & son together. A variety of prasads are offered to the Lord and people feel that some relative or family member has come over to stay with them. At the end of the festivities (depending on the period that the individual family follows) these clay idols are taken for immersion in nearby waterbodies.

There are public (Sarvajanik) groups also that have pandals (shamianas), across cities not only in India but where ever Indians stay, that install idols some of which are very tall. Normally these idols are worshipped over the full 10-day period and then taken for immersion with pomp accompanied by dance and music. This form of Sarvajanik celebration of the festival was started during India’s freedom struggle and was the brain-child of Bal Gangadhar Tilak.

All the processions are accompanied with cries of “Ganpati Bappa Morya, Pudcha Varshi Lavkar ya” meaning “Ganpati Bappa, please come again next year as soon as possible.” There is a tale about “Morya” following “Ganpati Bappa”, which I expect our knowledgeable followers/readers to throw light on.

The idols are worshipped one last time, arathis are offered, prasads are distributed before immersing in the waterbody. In big cities, we can see queues of idols awaiting their turn for immersion, there are various television channels that show the whole event live.

Today (9 september 2022) is that day when the idols are taken for immersion. Today is “Anant Chaturdashi”. After a gap of two years, thousands of devotees are on the roads, taking their idols for immersion.

On this occasion let us have a song where Madhuri Dixit is bidding Goodbye to her Ganpati Bappa. She sings in the voice of Lata Mangeshkar a song composed by Rajesh Roshan. What we see Madhuri do in the song is something that happens in many apartments i.e. placing the family’s Ganesh idol in the truck carrying a Sarvajanik Ganesh idol.

The song is from the 1993 release “Aansoo Bane Angaarey”. The movie was directed by Mehul Kumar, produced by J.K. Verma, and Indeevar, Dev Kohli & Payam Sayeedi were the songwriters. Madhuri Dixit played a double role and Jeetendra & Deepak Tijori were romantically paired opposite her. Bindu, Archana Puran Singh, Aruna Irani, Kiran Kumar, Anupam Kher, Prem Chopra, Tiku Talsania etc formed rest of the cast.

Hullo Atuldom

10th September 2021 is actually 19th day of the Bhadrapada month in the Vikrama Nama Samvat of the Hindu Calendar. It is the 4th day after the Amavasya or the New Moon. This day is very special as it is the day when the devout Hindus pray to the elephant-headed God Ganesha.

This is one festival that is celebrated through the country calling it Vinayaka Chaturthi in South India and Ganesh Chaturthi in the rest of the country. But the Lord worshipped and adored is the same and the offerings and prasad are basically the same. The flowers that are usual are the Hibiscus and the Marigold. Leaves of tender Banana plant are used to decorate the puja stands and mango leaf garlands adorn the doorways to homes. The most relevant flower or plant used to worship Lord Ganesha is said to be the Durva Grass. It is said that once while fighting a demon, Ganesha ended up swallowing him. This gave him a burning sensation in the stomach. When all else failed a group of sages placed a bunch of 21 Durva grass on him and he felt better. Another story says that Lord Ganesha suffered from a burning sensation after being cursed by a celestial woman. He became a recipient of the bane after rejecting her marriage proposal. Therefore, to rid himself of the discomfort and agony, Lord Ganesha placed a few strands of the Durva on his head. But Durva Grass is one of the offerings
Another common factor in the worship of Ganesha is the Modak – a sweet preparation made variously with Rice flour exterior and a filling made of coconut which is sweetened mostly with jaggery as in some parts of the country. Modak made from thickened milk (khova) and flavoured with saffron and cardamom are also offered specially in the Sarvajanik Ganesh Mandals. We in South India also have a savoury variation of the Modak. There is a story associated with Ganesha’s love for the Modak. Devi Parvati- the mother of Shri Ganesh and Shri Kartikeya- gave a modak to the two brothers. But both didn’t feel like sharing it with the other. So, as a way to decide who will get it, the mother asked her sons to take three rounds of the world and the winner would get the modak. Kartikeya promptly set off on his Peacook to abide with what his mother had said. Ganesha won the modak by taking three rounds of his parents as they meant the world for him. Such is the love that the lord has for the humble Modak.

As a child I used to visit my neighbour’s home when they brought beautiful clay idols of the god. That aunty taught me and other kids of the apartment all the associated aartis and bhajans which have been handed down from generations. Personally, I have no idea of who the original writers were but I keep seeing them used in films too, down the years. And each film credits a different writer as being the lyricist. Like for example, I found a movie called “Jai Ganesh” (1977) which credited “Sukhakarta dukharta varta vighnanchi” to Bharat Vyas and Visweswar Sharma. And I always thought it was a traditional aarthi; of course closer inspection brought out Hindi words and the original was possibly in Marathi. (I could be wrong about all of this though) I have myself shared two Ganesh aarathis on the blog which were credited to Mayur Puri (Riddhi siddhi vridhhi hoti) and Amitabh Bhattacharya (Deva shree Ganesha). These two displayed the feelings of the on-screen characters and relied of the original aarathi towards their end.

Today’s song is a Ganesh aarati with all the words as I have learnt it but Sameer is credited as lyricist. Music is by the duo Jatin-Lalit and is from the 1999 release “Vaastav”.

The movie had a cast headed by Sanjay Dutt, with Namrata Shirodkar, ,Mohnish Behl, Aarti Behl (also known as Ekta Behl), Reema Lagoo, Shivaji Satam, Sanjay Narvekar, Deepak Tijori, Paresh Rawal, Mohan Joshi, Ashish Vidyarthi, Himani Shivpuri etc. It was directed by Mahesh Manjrekar, produced by Sanjay Nikalje, had music by Jatin Lalit, Atul Ranade and Rahul Ranade. The movie won Sanjay Dutt a filmfare award for best actor for playing ‘an easy-going guy to a broken man’. ‘Vaastav’ had a tagline ‘The Reality’ and tried to depict the harsh realities of life in he Mumbai underworld. It also had a few good songs.

Today’s song happens just when the boys of the chawl have found that they have been used for personal gains by the underworld don, home minister etc. Raghu (Sanjay Dutt) finds out from the friendly inspector Kishore Kadam (Deepak Tijori) orders have been issued to eliminate them as they have become a thorn in the flesh of those who used them. The movie ends with Reema Lagoo shooting her (like Nargis in ‘Mother India’).

Let us welcome our ‘Pyara Ganpati/ Ganesh/ Vinayak… Ganpati Bappa…. Morya!!!!!!

Blog Day : 3709 Post No. : 14636

Today, we are celebrating an eternal birth anniversary – anniversary of the One who is the First Worshipped on all occasions.

There are many tales and variations, that tell of the origins of Lord Ganesh. The telling, as per the Shiv Puraan goes like this. A time was when Lord Shiv went into meditation for a very long period of time. On one occasion, Nandi, the chief of the Ganas of Lord Shiv was not on Mount Kailash. Goddess Parvati started preparing for her bathing rituals. Nandi was not present at the abode, and the Lord Himself was in deep meditation. Wondering and waiting as to who would guard the doorways while she took her bath, Goddess Parvati fashioned a form of a boy child from the turmeric paste that she had applied on to herself. As the form took shape, she then breathed life force into him. A child, as yet un-named, was brought to life. Goddess Parvati instructed him that he is Her son, and that he would obey only her commands. She further instructed him to guard the doorways of the abode, while she was taking her bath. The newborn young child took the instructions to heart and stood vigilant at the doorways.

While Goddess Parvati was still taking her bath, Lord Shiv completed his meditation and arose. He came towards the abode, only to find a fine young child guarding the doorways. Now, the child was not familiar with who this fatherly figure was, as he had not yet been so instructed by Goddess Parvati. In the absence of that knowledge, for him, the prime duty was the last instructions he had received, to guard the doorway and not allow anyone to enter. He pleaded politely with the Lord, to wait. But of course, the Lord was only returning to his own abode an could not understand why he was being prohibited to enter his own abode. The exchange between the Lord and the child took toll of the patience of the Lord, and in a fit of piqued annoyance, threw his trishul (trident) at the child in a manner that the child was beheaded.

He entered his abode. Goddess Parvati had completed her ablutions by then and was ready. When she saw her Lord in the abode, she was happy, and made preparations to offer him something to eat. She served the items in two platters. The Lord asked her, for whom was the second platter. Then Goddess narrated the tale of how she had created a boy child from the turmeric paste from her own body, and left him to guard the doorways while she took bath. And she enquired that the Lord must have met the child as he enter the abode. The Lord now realized what had happened, and then narrated the events as they had transpired outside the doorway.

On hearing the episode of the demise of her just newborn or newly created child, Goddess was overcome with grief. Since she also is the Mother of all creation, her going to this state of grief coupled with fury, of course did not bode well for the creation. All the ferocious manifestations of the Mother Goddess started to appear, threatening destruction of everything. There was an outcry of panic and alarm amongst all living creatures in the universe. The lesser Gods went to Lord Brahma and prayed for his protection.

Lord Brahma came to Mount Kailash and pleaded with the Mother Goddess and Lord Shiv to somehow placate the extreme situation, and avoid the destruction of the universe. Goddess Parvati agreed, on the condition that the child that had been beheaded be brought back to life. In the exchange that occurred between the child and Lord Shiv, the impact of the trishul was such that the head of the child could not be seen anywhere. Lord Shiv then instructed all his adherent disciples to go and search for a head for this child. The instruction was to bring back the head of the first dead entity they encountered, who would be lying prone with its head towards the north. In this search, the first such being encountered was an elephant. And so, its head was brought back to the abode. Lord Shiva placed this head of the elephant on the headless body of the boy child, and breathed life force once again into him. The child was revived and the imminent destruction of the universe was avoided.

The child was named Ganesh, combining two words – gan + eesh. Gan is the word for the closest adherent disciples of Lord Shiv, and eesh is the word that indicates primary or the first lead – meaning the first and the most preferred and honoured amongst all the adherent disciples of the Lord. He is also known by the name Gajaanan – one with the face like an elephant (gaj – elephant; aanan – face). In reality, he is known by numerous names, all depicting certain special characteristics of his persona.

There are other events that followed, by which Ganesh also got the boon and blessing that he would be the first one to be worshipped in any auspicious activity of the humans and of the demigods.

For today’s celebration, we present her a song from the 1979 film ‘Marte Dam Tak’. The song is created by Ravindra Jain who is both the writer and the composer for this song. The singing voices are those of Shabbir Kumar, Suresh Wadkar, Hemlata and Mahendra Kapoor. On screen, the song is performed by Govinda, Shakti Kapoor, Farah Naaz and Rajkumar, while we also see Om Puri in the picturization. The lyrics of this song have been sent in by our dear Prakashchandra ji.

Once again, with plentiful greetings to all friends and readers on this occasion – may all the happinesses come your way, and all the obstacles in your paths be removed by the blessings of Lord Ganesh – the first amongst all the followers of Lord Shiv.

Ganpati Baapa Moryaa. . .
