Sureeli Suman – 11
——————————–

Meerabai, right from her childhood was totally immersed in ‘Prem-Bhakti’  of her ‘Aaraadhya Dev’  Krishna. She suffered lots of humiliations and even an attempt of poisoning in her life. Ultimately she renounced everything and became a ‘Jogan’ in real sense.  As she migrated from Mewaad, Rajasthan to  Dwarika, Gujarat she has written many devotionals in many languages viz. Hindi, Mewaadi and Gujarati.

Yeh Hai Bombay Meri Jaan – 9
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

सच्ची, बहुत दिन हो गए बंबई गए। चलिए, फिर एक बार चलते हैं, मायानगरी में, एक बहुत ही अनूठे और अनसुने गीत के साथ।

Really, many days now since the last visit to Bombay. So I take you there once again today, along with a very rare, almost unheard and a very out of the ordinary song.

Mohammed Rafi – ‘अ’  से  ‘ह’ तक  (From ‘अ’ to ‘ह’) – 16
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

‘ज’
“जब लड़का कह दे हाँ और लड़की कह दे ना”

A phrase in English language – ‘man of God’ is generally used for a person whose personality abounds with all qualities that are good in a human being. Some people that we know to be religious, humble, polite, kind, caring, helpful etc., we apply this phrase when we talk of them.

Talking of Rafi Sb, I have heard Nalin ji (Nalin Shah, the film historian and author) often use another phrase that is decidedly more special. He refers to Rafi Sb as ‘God’s own man’. We can discuss the etiology and the import of these phrases in detail. But of course the phrase used by Nalin ji, has a very special connotation. Some special people will be known as ‘man of God’, by the qualities we like about them, and the manner in which we see them interact with others around them. But there is a more rare breed of people, who have something special, an aura about them, that simply their presence gives a feeling of being close to the Supreme. I have never been in the presence of Rafi Sb, but hearing from those who have met him and interacted with him, one gets a feeling that the phrase applied by Nalin ji is very appropriate.

Forgotten Melodies of the 1940s – 21
———————————————————

Do Music Directors direct the music?

This is the title of an article appeared about 72 years ago in June 1943 issue of FILMINDIA magazine. I had read the title of the article more than a year back but did not go through it at that time thinking that it must have been written by some staff of the magazine. Recently, when I came across the same article, I was surprised to find that the article was written by Ramchandra Pal, the music director who has composed music for Bombay Talkies films like ‘Kangan’ (1939), ‘Bandhan’ (1940), ‘Punar Milan’ (1940), ‘Naya Sansar’ (1941) and many more films in other banners mainly in the 40s. The article is well written.

Songs to Tickle Your Memory – 31
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

Memories may be of joy, or they may be of melancholy. But memories are always very dear to the heart. Always. For the memories carry segments of our own past, our experiences, and the times that we have traveled through. If we could control time, life would have no place for memories. If we could navigate the time, as we navigate the space, then we could, at will, return to the past moments and relive them, as we desired. But no, the time is not in our control. We are, in turn, tied to an ever forward-progressing passage of time, where the moments once passed, can never be revisited. And so, the Designer of this universe, invented the artifact of memory, placed it in our brains, and linked it to our hearts and minds. And so, we remember.

Missing Films of 1960s – 20
– – – – – – – – – – – – – –

Wow. Wow. And wow. Earlier, I never did pay any attention to the songs of this film. One of those also-ran mythological stories which make up the list of movies of any year in that era.  Haan theek hai, will check it out when there is more time at hand etc. Now, coming to the implementation of this series, and the home work assigned to me by Khyati Ben, I am reviewing the available songs of films that still are waiting in the wings to find their place on our blog. And I come to the next available film in this series – ‘Shiv Parvati’ from 1962. And within that film, I come to this song – and wow.

Songs to Tickle Your Memory – 30
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

The inboxes on my email, mobile and YouTube account seems to be getting as many reminder messages these days, as messages for request. 🙂 This song apparently has not yet surfaced in public domain. And for those who have heard it, and remember it, this is a vintage Chitragupt melody – stuff that memory ticklers are made of. I got requests from more than one friend (Arvinder ji included, of course) to post this song. And our dear friend Manju ji (daughter of producer director K Amarnath) is also waiting for this song.

Mohammed Rafi – ‘अ’  से  ‘ह’ तक  (From ‘अ’ to ‘ह’) – 15
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

‘छ’
“छोड़िए गुस्सा हुज़ूर ऐसी नाराज़ी भी क्या”

वो बादशाह सुरों का (He, the monarch of musical notes)

This phrase is used as the intro caption by one of the fans who uploads many songs of Rafi Sb on YouTube. (His name is Ahsaan Qasim.  He is a dear friend, and part of the wide circle of collector friends).

I have discussed in one of my earlier posts, about Rafi Sb’s cognizance of the emotional intent of a song, and his ability to capture and express its exact flavor and nuance, when he would sing it. This ability made his playback voice so intensely an integral subsumed part of the on screen performance, that his voice seemed to dissolve into the persona on screen, losing its own identity. And Rafi Sb had no favorites in this regard. His voice became the voice of any and every actor who lip synced his songs on screen. No other singer in this domain has been able to emulate This remarkable and pervasive characteristic of Rafi Sb’s singing. Other singers either have a very unique characteristic of their singing voice that is identifiable in every song they have given their voice to, or the identity of their voice matches the identity of some select actors and on screen roles. As I said, the pervasiveness of this ability of Rafi Sb continues to be unmatched.
