When I was informed that today (8 May 2023) is World Donkey Day, then my Initial reaction was to have a hearty laugh. I thought that yesterday (7 May ) was World laughter day. How come the next day is an extension of that Laughter day. I in fact thought of writing a post of World Donkey day. I asked Avinash Scrapwala, who sent me lyrics of a song for World laughter day, for a song for World Donkey day. He promptly sent me lyrics of a song.
My original idea was to write a light hearted post on this occasion. But when I carried out some research on the subject, the mood of amusement soon turned into a sombre mood. I realised that making fun of Donkeys was unfair. They have traditionally been given a rough deal in Indian culture which they did not deserve. Even our Hindi film songs where donkeys have been covered, have used donkeys as a matter of ridicule. When I listened to the song sent on this occasion, I was relieved to know that Donkey is not made a subject of ridicule in this song that I was afraid of.
Yesterday while discussing “Laughter” day, I was wondering who are the persons behind such days. I could not get the answer for World Laughter day, but I could readily get the answer for World Donkey day. It is Dr Abdul Raziq Kakar, Low Carbon Livestock Expert, Camelogist & Ethnoecologist. He is behind not just World Donkey day (8 May) but also behind World Camel Day (4 August).
He realized that the hardworking donkey wasn’t being recognized for its efforts in building our society. Their input has improved the quality of life for people all around the world. He started by creating a Facebook group talking about the animal. In 2018, World Donkey Day was officially set up and it’s been celebrated every year since. Its purpose is to spread information about donkeys and how they impact human lives.
Dr Abdul Raziq Kakar is a Pashtun from Khaiber Pakhtunwa area of Pakistan. In his facebook page he describes himself as “a camelist, desert explorer, animal scientist, extensive livestock ecologist, nature lover, traditional knowledge seeker, and camel advocate (for food and agriculture). I love exploring the deserts and understanding the attitude of Mother Earth. I do environmental activism and planting trees on my own.” He did B Sc, M Sc and Ph D from Faislabad University of Pakistan. His PhD subject was Camel Science.
Donkeys, like Human, first originated in Africa and from there they spread world wide. According to wikipedia -“Donkeys were probably first domesticated by pastoral people in Nubia, and they supplanted the ox as the chief pack animal of that culture. The domestication of donkeys served to increase the mobility of pastoral cultures, having the advantage over ruminants of not needing time to chew their cud, and were vital in the development of long-distance trade across Egypt. In the Dynasty IV era of Egypt, between 2675 and 2565 BC, wealthy members of society were known to own over 1,000 donkeys, employed in agriculture, as dairy and meat animals and as pack animals. In 2003, the tomb of either King Narmer or King Hor-Aha (two of the first Egyptian pharaohs) was excavated and the skeletons of ten donkeys were found buried in a manner usually used with high ranking humans. These burials show the importance of donkeys to the early Egyptian state and its ruler.”
It is heartening to know that Egyptians treated Donkeys with respect for their contributions in their lives, even if people of some other countries, including India were rather ungrateful towards them.
Wikipedia further mentions that
By the end of the fourth millennium BC, the donkey had spread to Southwest Asia, and the main breeding centre had shifted to Mesopotamia by 1800 BC. The breeding of large, white riding asses made Damascus famous[citation needed], while Syrian breeders developed at least three other breeds, including one preferred by women for its easy gait. The Muscat or Yemen ass was developed in Arabia. By the second millennium BC, the donkey was brought to Europe, possibly at the same time as viticulture was introduced, as the donkey is associated with the Syrian god of wine, Dionysus. Greeks spread both of these to many of their colonies, including those in what are now Italy, France and Spain; Romans dispersed them throughout their empire.[24]
The first donkeys came to the Americas on ships of the Second Voyage of Christopher Columbus, and were landed at Hispaniola in 1495.[26] The first to reach North America may have been two animals taken to Mexico by Juan de Zumárraga, the first bishop of Mexico, who arrived there on 6 December 1528, while the first donkeys to reach what is now the United States may have crossed the Rio Grande with Juan de Oñate in April 1598.[27] From that time on they spread northward, finding use in missions and mines. Donkeys were documented as present in what today is Arizona in 1679. By the Gold Rush years of the 19th century, the burro was the beast of burden of choice of early prospectors in the western United States. With the end of the placer mining boom, many of them escaped or were abandoned, and a feral population established itself.
As for their use, Wikipedia has great details:
The donkey has been used as a working animal for at least 5000 years. Of the more than 40 million donkeys in the world, about 96% are in underdeveloped countries, where they are used principally as pack animals or for draught work in transport or agriculture. After human labour, the donkey is the cheapest form of agricultural power.[53] They may also be ridden, or used for threshing, raising water, milling and other work.[54] Some cultures that prohibit women from working with oxen in agriculture do not extend this taboo to donkeys.[55]
In developed countries where their use as beasts of burden has disappeared, donkeys are used to sire mules, to guard sheep, for donkey rides for children or tourists, and as pets. Donkeys may be pastured or stabled with horses and ponies, and are thought to have a calming effect on nervous horses. If a donkey is introduced to a mare and foal, the foal may turn to the donkey for support after it has been weaned from its mother.[57]
A few donkeys are milked or raised for meat. Approximately 3.5 million donkeys and mules are slaughtered each year for meat worldwide.[58] In Italy, which has the highest consumption of equine meat in Europe and where donkey meat is the main ingredient of several regional dishes, about 1,000 donkeys were slaughtered in 2010, yielding approximately 100 tonnes (98 long tons; 110 short tons) of meat.[59] Asses’ milk may command good prices: the average price in Italy in 2009 was €15 per litre, and a price of €6 per 100 ml was reported from Croatia in 2008; it is used for soaps and cosmetics as well as dietary purposes. The niche markets for both milk and meat are expanding.[28] In the past, donkey skin was used in the production of parchment.[28] In 2017, the UK based charity The Donkey Sanctuary estimated that 1.8 million skins were traded every year, but the demand could be as high as 10 million.[36]
In China, donkey meat is considered a delicacy with some restaurants specializing in such dishes, and Guo Li Zhuang restaurants offer the genitals of donkeys in dishes. Donkey-hide gelatin is produced by soaking and stewing the hide to make a traditional Chinese medicine product. Ejiao, the gelatine produced by boiling donkey skins, can sell for up to $388 per kilo, at October 2017 prices.
Bulk of donkeys are found is underdeveloped parts of the world where their treatment leaves much to be desired. They are kept under nourised and over worked by humans who themselves are from the lowest strata of society. In developed parts though, they are treated with more dignity.
In developed countries, the welfare of donkeys both at home and abroad has become a concern, and a number of sanctuaries for retired and rescued donkeys have been set up. The largest is The Donkey Sanctuary near Sidmouth, England, which also supports donkey welfare projects in Egypt, Ethiopia, India, Kenya, and Mexico.[35]
In 2017, a drop in the number of Chinese donkeys, combined with the fact that they are slow to reproduce, meant that Chinese suppliers began to look to Africa. As a result of the increase in demand, and the price that could be charged, Kenya opened three donkey abattoirs. Concerns for donkeys’ well-being, however, have resulted in a number of African countries (including Uganda, Tanzania, Botswana, Niger, Burkina Faso, Mali, and Senegal) banning China from buying their donkey products.
In 2019, The Donkey Sanctuary warned that the global donkey population could be reduced by half over the next half decade as the demand for ejiao increases in China.
Though Pakistan has someone like Dr Abdul Raziq Kakar who was instrumental in establishing World Donkey Day, Pakistan (unlike African countries) hs shown no hesitation in selling its donkeys to China on a big scale as has been reported in media.
We all have noticed that we do not care about our stray animals once they lose their usefulness. I hope India too joins the ranks of developed world and creates sanctuaries for these stray animals. In India, we have seen stray cows leading miserable lives on streets struggling to get nourishment. Under this circumstances, an animal like Donkey faces far more hardships, which it hardly deserves.
As for its nature, wikipedia rightfully mentions that :
Donkeys have a notorious reputation for stubbornness, but this has been attributed to a much stronger sense of self-preservation than exhibited by horses. Likely based on a stronger prey instinct and a weaker connection with humans, it is considerably more difficult to force or frighten a donkey into doing something it perceives to be dangerous for whatever reason. Once a person has earned their confidence they can be willing and companionable partners and very dependable in work.
Although formal studies of their behaviour and cognition are rather limited, donkeys appear to be quite intelligent, cautious, friendly, playful, and eager to learn.
I am quite sure that donkeys are intelligent animals. If we treat them with dignity and respect, I am sure we can get them to respond better to human commands, provided they are reasonable commands. We Indians consider Donkey as well as Owl as synonyms of fool, which is not correct. Donkes are intelligent, so are Owls.
When I checked up, I found that several other animals too have their international days. But most of these days have been pioneered by Americans and perhaps Europeans. In India, we supposedly consider cow a very important animal, but Indians have not pioneered anything like World Cow Day. There is one Cow Appreciation day in USA. India has the largest population of water buffalo. Together, these two creatures have made India world’s largest milk producer. But we do not even have a World Buffalo day pioneered by India. There is one national Buffalo day of USA, that is all. All this speaks very poorly for us Indians who cannot get World Cow Day or World Buffalo day and here I had planned to use World Donkey Day to ridicule the poor creatute. Not any longer. I have begun to look at donkeys with respect. They have played an important role in the advancement of human civilisation. They deserve to be treated with dignity. It is high time we shed our biased and outdated outlook towards animals like Donkeys, Owl, Buffalo etc, which gets reflected in the phrases that our language possess, viz “Gadha kahin ka”, “Ulloo ka pattha”, “bhains ke aage been bajaaye” etc.
The idea behind these days is to create awareness among people. I think I have certainly become more aware about Donkeys thanks to this “World Donkey Day”.
Let us come to the song.
The song under discussion is from an obscure movie called “Koraa Aanchal”(1973)
“Koraa Aanchal”(1973) was directed by Somesh Joshi & V. Mhatre for ‘Mexico Films, Bombay’. The movie had had Dheeraj, Narendra Nath, Snehlata, Laxmi Chhaya, Joginder, Junior Mehmood, Kamini Devi, Indumati, Birbal, Rajaji, Preeti, Vilas, Jerry, Junior Jerry, Nath Sayam and others in it. Actress Veena made guest appearance in this movie.
This movie was passed by Censor Board on 02.08.1973.
“Koraa Aanchal”(1973) has six songs composed by Roshanlal Khatri.
The six songs were shared by four lyricist viz. Somesh Joshi, Shadab, Gauhar Kanpuri, and Paras Budhwani (one each). (Credit for two songs has been jointly shared by Shadab+Gauhar Kanpuri and Shadab+Paras Budhwani as mentioned in the foot-note for this movie page in HFGK Vol-V (1971-1980).
It is a movie of 1973 that was so far missing from the blog. It is Avinash Scrapwala who was bringing these missing movies of 1973 to the blog, but in this case, he has graciously allowed me to introduce this movie on the blog, for the reason that this song does contain a “Donkey” related song.
This song is sung by Usha Mangeshkar and an unknown child voice. Lyrics are by Somesh Joshi. Music is composed by Roshanlal Khatri.
Only audio of this rare song are available. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the picturisation of this song.
Lyrics of the song and other details were sent to me by Avinash Scrapwala.
With this song, the movie “Koraa Aanchal”(1973) makes its debut in the blog.

Blog Day : |
5406 | Post No. : | 17739 |
We often hear this lament from oldtimers that things were simpler in their days and they have become complicated now a days. As a fresh entrant into the club of oldtimers, I tend to agree. Things were really simple in the old days. And they were easy to remember as well if you were a student who was required to remember these facts.
Take some examples from the past(my days of 1960s) and compare them with the present situation (2023)
| Question asked | Reply in 1960s | Reply in 2023 |
|---|---|---|
| Name of all Presidents of India | Dr Rajendra Prasad, S Radhakrishnan, Zakir Hussain | Too many to recall and name |
| Name of all Prime Ministers of India | Jawaharlal Nehru, Lal Bahadur Shashtri, Indira Gandhi | Too many to recall and name |
| How many cricketers have scored over 8000 test runs | Only one, Garfield Sobers | Too many to recall and name |
| How many cricketers have taken over 300 test wickets | Only one, Freddie Trueman | Too many to recall and name |
| How many Indian cricketers have scored over 3000 test runs | Only three, Polly Umrigar, Vijay Manjrekar, Chandu Borde | Too many to recall and name |
| What are the various car models manufactured in India | Ambassador, Premier Padmini | Too many to recall and name |
| Days that are celebrated | New Year, Republic Day, Independence day, Children’s day, Labour day | Too many to recall and name |
It is the answer to the last question that has led to this writeup. This morning Avinash Scrapwala informed me that today (7 May) is Laughter day. Now what is this laughter day ? And who decides these days ? Every day now a days has some vague day or the other. There are some days that celebrate more than one topic, often vague and unheard ones. There are 365 days but there many be more number of “Day” to celebrate. It is an overload of “days” now a days. No one can remember them, and no one can “celebrate” them all.
Who decided that today is Laughter day ? Does he mean that we need not laugh on other days, or did he think that laughter has become so rare that a day needed to be dedicated for it ? I do not think that alarming situation has arrived as yet.
My own view is that all these days are meant to create business for say greeting card makers. But now a days even greeting card makers cannot keep up with these days.
We also have world music day. This one day is for others. We in this blog have our music day every day.
My take on all these days is that they are for lazy people. What is the need to have say Music day. We do not have this need. Every day is music day for us. Why should we have Women’s day. Every day should be a Women’s day and well as Men’s day. Also Children’s day.
Coming to Laughter day, I think this day too is unnecessary. At least for us music lovers. Regulars of this blog many of them also connected through whatsapp, share jokes in the group every day. So we are having our laughter day daily.
Nevertheless, someone has decided to have a world laughter day today on 7 May. By the way, is this fellow the same one who came up with the idea of Happiness Index ? Let him come up with a laughter Index as well. I can predict that European countries will top the ranking. India will be ranked behind Pakistan and Bangladesh and this ranking will be used by Western Media to pooh pooh India achievements in various sectors.
But that is in the future. So far we only have a world Laughter day today. So we have to celebrate it.
Looking at the right side of the blog, I notice that there are 88 songs under the category of “Comedy” and another 73 under “comedy songs”. Then there are 319 songs under the category of “lighthearted” songs. There may be more but they have not been categorised under these heads. So this suggests that we have about 450 songs out of 17000 plus songs as comedy song. This suggesdts that 2.5 % of the songs represented in the blog are comedy songs.
If we have world sadness day or world melancholic day, we in the blog will be right up there with the best sad and / or melancholic people there. But they someone will create a world melancholy index and prove that Indians are way down that list too. 🙂
When we think of laughter, one thinks of Kishore Kumar immediately. Quite a few of his comedy songs are already represented in the blog. To celebrate the Laughter day, here is a less known of his comedy song. This song is from “Phagun”(1973).
“Phagun”(1973) was directed by Rajinder Singh Bedi for ‘Dachi Films, Bombay’. The movie had Waheeda Rehman, Dharmendra (special appearance), Jaya Bhaduri, Vijay Arora, Om Prakash, Ravi Ghosh, Jagdev Bhambri, K.S. Kriplani, Vimal Joshi, Indu Mehta, Smita, Rajrani, Suman Sinha, Baldev Trehan, Ramlal, Pardesi, Narmada Shankar, V. Gopal, Anand (Mamaji), Beri and others in it.
“Phagun”(1973) had six songs in it. Four songs have been covered in the past. Here is this song, the fifth from the movie to appear in the blog. The song is sung by Kishore Kumar, Pankaj Mitra, Sunil Kumar and R.S. Bedi. Majrooh Sultanpuri is the lyricist. Music is composed by S D Burman.
It appears that only audio of the song is available. The movie itself came during the days when Rajesh Khanna ruled the roost and movies with other heroes did not find much favour with the audience. This movie was one of the lesser patronised movies of its time. That explains why this song, despite having the voice of Kishore Kumar in it failed to get popular. Personally I am listening to this for the first time. The song would have become popular had the movie done better at the box office.
Song-Laali mere laal ki (Phaagun)(1973) Singers-Kishore Kumar, Pankaj Mitra, Sunil Kumar, R.S. Bedi, Lyrics-Majrooh Sultanpuri, MD-S D Burman

#the Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————
(The movie – ‘Saaraansh-1984’)
“Saaraansh-1984” is a landmark movie in the careers of director Mahesh Bhatt and debutant actor Anupam Kher.
The two songs in the movie were composed by Ajit Varman. A detailed writeup on him was posted in the blog, penned by Peevesie’s mom jee.
Varman, born in Calcutta in 1947, was fascinated by Music from early childhood, and had a flair for it. He ran away from home when he was sixteen. Living rough for the next few years, he learnt music (vocals, piano, harmonium, drums ) on the go. He calls piano a ‘complete musical instrument. He would loiter about while a church choir sang or would peep into Salil Chaudhary’s home when he was rehearsing a tune. Noting the boy’s interest in music Salil Da took him at musician in his orchestra. He got a chance to work with Pankaj Mullick, Satyajit Ray and Hemant Kumar too.
Varman came to Bombay (Mumbai) in 1970 to join Salil Da, who was an established composer by then. The soft bongo in Anand’s ‘kahin door jab din dhhal jaaye’ was played by Varman. A chance encounter with music arranger Sebastian D’ Souza opened the doors to the orchestra of Shankar-Jaikishan who were working on ‘Mera Naam Joker’. He later worked with Laxmikant-Pyarelal too.
The credits of low budget Muslim social ‘Noor E Ilaahi-1976’ shows Babloo-Dheeraj as music directors. Babloo actually is the nickname of Ajit Varman. The songs were well received, but, the partnership didn’t last.
(Among beautiful Sufiyana Qawwalis, romantic duets and bidai songs, there is a good rendition by Anwar of Bahadur Shah Jafar’s ‘Na kisi ki aankh ka noor hoon’, immortalized by Rafi Saab and S.N. Tripathi in Laal Quilaa-1960.).
Varman and Govind Nihalani stayed in the same lodge in Bandra (?) and Nihalani was aware of Varman’s prowess for and ability in music. ‘If ever, I become a director, you will be my composer’ the ace cinematographer had said. He kept his word when he debuted as a director with ‘Aakrosh-1980’. The gripping tale had fitting back ground music and for the song ‘kaanha re’ Varman received ‘Sur-Singaar Samsad’s’ Swami Haridas award. He recreated the magic again in Nihalani’s next movie ‘Vijeta-1982’ and ‘Ardh-Satya-1983’.
He worked with Mahesh Bhatt in ‘Saaraansh-1984’, ‘Janam-1985’ and ‘Jeewan Sandhya-1984 (Tele film). His total movies are about twenty plus. ‘Yeh Aashiqui Meri’ was his last. ‘Life is Beautiful-20212’ has his back ground score.
He took pride in being a musician, arranger, conductor and composer all himself. He scored music for several ‘tele-serials’ – Imtihaan, Agni, Apne Jaise types.
Believing firmly in work ethics and not lobbying for work, the assignments stopped coming. Married twice, both marriages ended in divorce. I think he had one son and one daughter. Poverty and ill-health led to depression. He died a lonely death in a Mumbai Hospital on 15th December’2016. The neighbors had to pool money for his treatment and funeral with zero help/attendance from the film industry.
The song under discussion is the second and final song of ‘Saaraansh’. Touching lyrics by Vasant Dev, beautifully sung by Amit Kumar (who sang the most number of Varman’s songs). The picturisation will make you emotional with ‘dard’ almost palpable on Anupam Kher’s face. Rohini Hattangadi, Soni Razdan, Madan Jain are among the others seen here.
Vasant Dev received the ‘best lyricist’ award at the 32nd National Film Awards.
With this song ‘Saaraansh-1984’ gets ‘Yippeeee’ed’ on the blog. Perhaps it is the first time when a movie with more than one song is being ‘Yippeeee’ed on the same day of its debut.
I am immensely grateful to dear Avinash ji for his technical support/assistance. He did it willingly as if it were his own post. I stand indebted Avinash ji. But, the troubles have just started for you Avinash ji!! 🙂
Let us listen to this song, “har ghadi dhhal rahi shaam hai”- just as sun is setting in the west.

#the Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————
(The movie – ‘Saaraansh-1984’, and tribute to Singer Bhupinder Singh)
Some movies touch you deeply, pull at your heart strings and get embedded permanently in your very being. It could be due the theme, the direction, or in the majority of the instances, the performances.
A few that have had such an effect on me are BOOT POLISH, MOTHER INDIA, SAHAB BIBI AUR GHULAM, DOST, KASTURI NIVASA (Kannada), MAUSAM, MOONRAM PIRAI (original Tamil version of Sadmaa), MASOOM, NAYAGAN, RUDAALI, BLACK.
The movie that is making its debut on the blog today is one such movie.
“SAARAANSH-1984” where a 29 year old NSD Graduate Anupam Kher debuted in the role of a 65 years old retired School Teacher, moved me to the very core. Kher’s acting and Mahesh Bhatt’s direction was superb in this movie.
Bhatt wrote the story, screenplay (with Sujit Sen), and dialogues written by Sujit Sen and Amit Khanna made the movie an emotional roller coaster ride. Able support was provided by Rohini Hattangadi, Neelu Phule, and Suhas Bhalekar.
Soni Razdan, Madan Jain, Akash Khurana, Alok Nath etc were in the cast.
Produced by Tarachand Barjatya of Rajshri Pictures the other credits of this movie are as;
Cinematography – Adeep Tandon, Editing-David Dhawan, Costumes-Amal Allana, Make up-S. Jayanta, Sound-Hitendra Ghosh, Art Direction – Madhukar Shinde.
The struggle of an old father coming into terms with the greatest loss of his life – the murdering of his only son in New York, his wife’s attempts at finding solace in the rituals and Pundits, standing up for a young woman whom they had taken as Paying Guest (against a local politician and his goons), contemplating suicide together earlier – the events unfold like a ‘tragic poem’ on the celluloid, but without losing hope for the final ‘ALL is WELL’.
Sanjeev Kumar, the thespian (with Sholay, Mausam, Zindagi, and Arjun Pandit, Trishul behind him) was the choice (in spite of Kher having been finalized by Mr. Bhatt) for the role by the Producers. But, Kher’s brilliant performance won him the ‘Filmfare Award’ for the Best Actor. Bhatt and Shinde also won for Story and Art Direction respectively.
The honor at the National Awards went to Naseeruddin Shah that year for ‘PAAR’. But Vasant Dev won the Best Lyricist award for ‘Saaraansh’.
This movie was India’s official entry for the Academy Award for the ‘Best Foreign Language Film’. It was included in the Panorama section of the 1984-IFFI. At the 14th Moscow International Film Festival, it was nominated for the ‘Golden Prize’ and Bhatt was given a ‘special prize’.
(At the ‘Filmfare Awards’, the other nominations for the film were for Best Film, Director, Actress and supporting actress- almost all the major categories).
So far for Mahesh Bhatt his movies ‘Arth’, ‘Naam’, ‘Janam’, ‘Aashiqui’, ‘Sadak’, ‘Dil Hai Ke Maantaa Nahin’, ‘Ham Hain Raahi Pyaar Ke’, ‘Sir’, ‘Daddy’, ‘Zakhm’ etc have won him critical acclaim and many were commercially successful too. But to me ‘Saaransh’ is his most sensitive work same like Anupam Kher’s sensitive performance in this movie among his other movies.
Today’s song is a beautifully created and equally well picturised one. Kher, Hattangadi, Bhalekar and Alok Nath are the known faces here. Sung hauntingly by Bhupinder Singh, the lyrics are by Vasant Dev and music by Ajit Verman.
As mentioned earlier, Vasant Dev was given the ‘best lyricist award’ at the 32nd National Film Festivals.
Today is Bhupinder Singh’s birth anniversary (born on 6th February’1940). Surprisingly his voice features in two other favorite movies I have listed above.
This part was conceived on the 18th July’2022 the day Bhupinder Singh left for his heavenly journey and was informed to Avinash ji.
Lyrics noted are as per the audio of this song which is a longer version than the video, and provided by Avinash Scrapwala.
I am grateful to dear Avinash Scrapwala ji for his technical help. I feel lost with these things. He reminded me often, waited patiently and helped to make this post happen. (As mentioned above it was conceived on the day Bhupinder Singh left for his heavenly journey i.e. 18th July’2022, a gestation period of nearly nine months!!!)
Thanks also to all our ASAD friends who constantly goaded me to make a start.
Let us pay our tributes to Bhupinder Singh with this song.

Today (25 october 202) is the 42nd remembrance day of Sahir Ludhianvi (8 March 1921 – 25 October 1980).
We can see that 1980 saw the demise of Rafi as well as Sahir Ludhianvi. so in a way, one can say that golden era singing as well as lyrics writing suffered major blows in 1980 and that hastened the end of the Golden era of HFM. Of course, many other stalwarts of the golden era of HFM were also getting eclipsed/ sidelined/ marginalised from the scene for one reason or the other during those days.
Sahir Ludhianvi was born on a date which is now a days celebrated as Women’s day. He died on a day which is celbrated as International Artists’s day. This date is called so in honour of famous artist Pablo Picasso (25 october 1881- 4 april 1973).
As a tribute to Sahir Ludhainvi, here is a song from “Jaagriti”(1977). This movie was was produced by Vimal Bhatia and Naresh Malhotra and directed by Rajendra Bhatia for ‘Jai Films, Bombay’. It had Nutan, Vinod Mehra, Reena Roy, Master Satyajeet, Prem Chopra, I.S. Johar, Paintal and Asrani, with Krishnakant, Lily Chakravarty, Padma Chawhan, Ashoo and Junior Mehmood. They were supported by Ram Mohan, Karan Dewan, Sushil Bhatnagar, Birbal, Mounto, Keshav Rana, Madhu Apte, Brook Bond, Jugnu, Aditya Sharma, Manjeet, Salim, Rajesh, Raj Bachhan, Master Ripple, Master Ravi, Manmohan, Aarti, Ram Avtar, Narbada Shankar and Raaj Kishore. Jayshree T and Helen made special appearance in this movie.
“Jaagriti”(1977) had four songs in it. Two songs have been covered so far.
This third song from “Jaagriti”(1977) is sung by Asha Bhonsle. Sahir Ludhianvi is the lyricist. Music is composed by Laxmikant Pyarelal.
Only audio of the song seems to be available as of now. Avinash Scrapwala, who sent the lyrics of the song, informs that the song is picturised on Reena Roy. Master Satyajeet can also be seen in the picturisation.
As of now, only audio is available. One stanza available in video, is unavailable in the audio version.
Song-Ae mere nanhe gulfaam (Jaagriti)(1977) Singer-Asha Bhonsle, Lyrics-Sahir Ludhianvi, MD-Laxmikant Pyarelal
Lyrics(Provided by Avinash Scrapwala)
Ae mere nanhe gulfaam
Meri neendein tere naam
Ae mere nanhe gulfaam
Meri neendein tere naam
Teraa bachpan paak rahe ae
Mujh par to hain sau ilzaam
Ae mere nanhe gulfaam
Meri neendein tere naam
Teraa bachpan paak rahe
Mujh par to hain sau ilzaam
Kis kaa padaa tujh par saayaa
Kis kaa padaa tujh par saayaa
Kis ne ye rastaa dikhlaayaa
Kaun tujhe is ghar laayaa
Ye ghar hai rusvaa badnaam
In galiyon ki kismat hai ae
In galiyon ki kismat hai ae
Tute gajre jhoothe jaam
Ae mere nanhe gulfaam
Meri neendein tere naam
Zakhmi saazon ki jhankaar
Zakhmi saazon ki jhankaar
Ghaayal geeton ki gulzaar
Dukhte tan ki cheekh pukaar
Aiyaashon ke khel kaa naam
In kuchon mein hotaa hai
In kuchon mein hotaa hai
Armaanon ka qatl-e-aam
Aye mere nanhe gulfaam
Meri neendein tere naam
Is basti mein zehar ghule
Is basti mein zehar ghule
Har boti roti mein tule
In galiyon ki aankh khule
Jab dharti par chhaaye shaam
So na gayaa to dekhega
So na gayaa to dekhega
Maa behnon ke lagte daam
Ae mere nanhe gulfaam
Meri neendein tere naam
Teraa bachpan paak rahe
Mujh par to hai sau ilzaam
Ae mere nanhe gulfaam
Aaj watan ne hamen pukaara

Today (15 August 2022) is the 76th Independence day for India.So India has completed 75 years of independence. I have seen 60 Independence days. It is the 15th Independence day for the blog. This constitutes a nice 5:4:1 ratio.
Only 15 years had passed since independence when I was born. The country was still ruled by its first Prime Minister (Jawaharlal Nehru) and first President (Dr Rajendra Prasad). The country was still trying to find its feet. When I look back at the situation of India those days, India was in as bad shape as the most underdeveloped countries in Africa. The literacy rate was abysmal. Life expectancy was 32 years.
Here I present some important indices that India had in 1947. I have also provided figures for the same indices in 1962, 2008 and 2022. The change in values over the years have been quite remarkable.
| Life expectancy in india in years | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1947 | 1962 | 2008 | 2022 |
| 32 | 42 | 66 | 70 |
We can see that the life expectancy in India has become more than doubled from 32 years to 70 years.
| Infant mortality rate (per 1000 live births) | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1947 | 1962 | 2008 | 2022 |
| 218 | 157 | 49 | 27 |
Infant mortality rate was quite alarming till a few decades ago. The figure of 27 deaths per 1000 live births is still unsatisfactory but it is a vast improvement from the figure of 1947.
| Maternal mortality rate (per 100000 live births) | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1947 | 1962 | 2008 | 2022 |
| 2000 | 1000 | 212 | 103 |
The Maternal mortality rate had improved by nearly 20 times in 75 years.
| Literacy rate in India in % | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1947 | 1962 | 2008 | 2022 |
| 12 % | 29 % | 70 % | 77% |
India was among the most illiterate nations on earth. Today Indian literacy rate is quite high and that has enabled India to take rapid strides in economic activities that require skilled manpower, viz service sector and manufacturing sector.
| Population of India in crores | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1947 | 1962 | 2008 | 2022 |
| 34 cr | 47 cr | 121 cr | 140 cr |
Indian population had quadrupled in 75 years.
| Human Development Index | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1947 | 1962 | 2008 | 2022 |
| NA | NA | 0.563 | 0.645 |
Human development index was devised in 1990. It consists of indices of health, education and standard of living. As health, education and standard of living improves, so does HDI.
| Agriculture production in Million tonnes | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1947 | 1962 | 2008 | 2022 |
| 50 Million Tonnes (50 % of GDP) | 71 Million tonnes | 216 million tonnes | 316 Million tonnes (17%) |
Population has quadrupled whereas food grain production had increased more than six times. It had happened while agriculture sector is now contributing less than 20 % of GDP, while it was over 50 % of GDP in 1947.
| GDP in billion $ | ||||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1947 | 1962 | 2008 | 2022 | |
| 24 | 42 | 1200 | 3200 | |
The figures are based on the current values of those years using exchange rate of those days.
| GDP per capita in $ | |||
|---|---|---|---|
| 1947 | 1962 | 2008 | 2022 |
| 70 | 90 | 1000 | 2277 |
The figures are based on the current values of those years using exchange rate of those days.
One can notice that India, despite its problems, including wrong policy decisions and adverse geo political circumstances, has come up a long way in last 75 years. Now India seems poised to take its rightful place among the nations of the world. It is a matter of time (three decades in my estimate) before India will join the list of advanced nations of the world.
There are lots of things that can be mentioned here, but the above tables give us clear idea about the progress that India has made in various areas.
On this occasion, here is a song from an unreleased movie called ‘Aaj Watan Ne Hamen Pukaara’ (1970). The movie was made under the banner of Sangam Productions, Bombay. That is all the information that is known about this movie.
This song is sung by Rafi and chorus. Bismil Ludhianvi is the lyricist. Music is composed by Mohinder Kaur.
Lyrics of this rare song were sent to me by Avinash Scrapwala.
I take this opportunity to wish everyone a very happy 76th independence day.

Rafi Sahab’s Legendary Associations – 10
———————————————————
73rd Republic Day of India
ek hai apni zameen
ek hai apna gagan
ek hai apna jahaan
ek hai apna watan
apne sabhi sukh ek hain
apne sabhi gham ek hain
aawaaz do
aawaaz do ham ek hain
ham ek hain
“What is it that I want? The same as you, the same as everyone else. I want to be physically safe and healthy, financially secure and personally happy. I want the same confidence in my abilities, in my environment and social acceptance. I have the same worries and aspirations for future. Same apprehensions if the children will turn out well and have good careers or not.”
This is me, in conversation with a dear friend and a long-time colleague. This conversation happened some 15-16 years ago. Actually, we were on the same page in the topic, she was not coming from any opposite direction at all. But she was the one clear on the causes of a problem, I was the one confused.
But things are a lot clearer to me now, exactly what I wanted to explain at that time is more obvious now.
apne sabhi sukh ek hain
apne sabhi gham ek hain
The causes of happiness for the common man are the same everywhere, whatever is the religion, caste, race, region, language, state or country they are allied to. The aspirations are same and the apprehension and causes of sadness are also the same essentially. This is the way a social environment develops, where people go and join hands with each other in times of happiness and sadness.
Today the country is celebrating 73rd Republic Day.
The constitution gives us the right to live with dignity. What is a person’s dignity? it is not just the pride in its citizenship, its values and its integrity. A person’s dignity is the self-belief that I have done nothing wrong and don’t mean any harm to anyone. And a feeling of security, that me, my life, my livelihood and my family is safe. A sense of belonging that makes us feel responsible for the safety and security of fellow citizens and has assurance of reciprocation. Also, that I deserve all that I command. Personally, socially and professionally.
As a citizen it is a right to demand and acquire good education, an adequate health facility, a great judicial system and better law enforcement agencies, plus a media which gives us information, that really mattered. Real information, on what has been done to give the above rights to the citizens.
With the slow and gradual increase of opportunities in education and personal growth, the inequalities have also increased. A success story in monetary terms and career, is just not enough. It is also important to have balanced and broad-minded success stories. Rationality and seeing an issue in a truly international perspective are what will make a successful person intellectually empowered.
At the ripe old age of 75, we should have been a mature people.
Do we see enough, do we care enough?
Do we bother to call out the misbehaviour, of miscreants we see on the streets? Are we bold to speak out against injustice?
Are we smart enough to sift through the crap fed to us day in and day out in the guise of news and entertainment?
Do we bother to check the authenticity of WhatsApp forwards before sharing with other people?
Do we even care that our ‘can’t care less’ attitude is destroying the centuries old social fabric of our society and stripping us of our identity as a people, the whole world, looked at with respect?
Munshi Premchand said “Communalism, whenever it raises its head, it comes within a cloak. Because it is ashamed of coming alone or walking alone. “
Yes, at the age of 75, we are a nation of most young people in the world. Being second largest population in the world, with an average age of 28 years, the figures of young people and children are just hugest in the world. If these young people are a part of work force and aspire for personal growth and are able to collectively individually, contribute to the nation building, what can be built and achieved is mind boggling.
But are we looking at what the young population of this country is aspiring to be?
What is the ambition of an average Indian youngster?
what are their hopes?
What are their priorities?
It is very important to channelise the energies and ambitions of youth towards personal and professional excellence. There is enough talent, brains and hands in this country to make it an economic force. But for that we have to rise above the politics of religion, caste, us and they, region etc.
There was a story of cats and a monkey, we used to hear and read as children. Lately I have not seen it repeated anywhere. So here is the story for refreshing the memory of readers:
Two cats are fighting for a roti. The monkey comes and tells them to stop fighting and make two equal pieces of the roti. The cats agree and make two parts. The monkey tells them the two parts are not equal, one is larger and the other is smaller. He advises the cat holding the larger piece, to break a small part and give it to him, so both the cats have equal portions. The result is again the same, the parts of the roti the cats have are still not equal. So, the other cat is asked to break a small piece and give it to the monkey, to establish the equality. So on and so forth the dispute continues, till the whole roti is finished, while the cats remain empty handed in the end.
Similar is the case of inequality in opportunities in our set up. In the name of equalising those opportunities, the opportunists among us are gobbling up the parts and parcel. Keeping the marginalised sections divided and fighting imaginary/perceptive fights with each other. It is not a true cut and dried, there are multiple layers to these differences, perceptions of not getting a fair share of the ‘roti’. The majority/minorities tussle is but one layer of it and the cloak which Munish Premchand referred to. The real divide here is still the have’s and have nots. Then there is a gender divide, which is inherent and keeps getting uglier.
Where does all this leave the common man, with its apprehensions and aspirations? With their same dukh and sukh, I spoke about in the first para.
“I have the same worries and aspirations for future. Same apprehensions if the children will turn out well and have good careers or not.”
It is true, that once I had children, all my self-interests and care less impulsiveness gave way to worries of the future. Not the least of which was the worry for their safety, physical, emotional and psychological. Major part of their time was spent outside the home, in school and in the creche. How the things that they imbibe from the social atmosphere will affect their character, their thought processes and their choices and priorities? This was a cause of worry for me.
Yes, these ills in society are stemming for this one vice, i. e. selfishness. A few days ago, I had a big discussion with my son, regarding the self-interest of sections of society, and the marginalised sections of the society, who are still outside a certain margin. This margin is not unbreachable. We can see it breached in some developed states in the country. In most parts of the country, the focus of the populace is on the personal growth, better life quality and the common interests of the common man.
My son, interestingly was coming from the other direction in the discussion. I have managed to make an inroad in the way, he looks at opportunities for himself and for others, his fellow countrymen, who have the talent, ability and deserve to take their rightful place in the progress and development of the country, I hope, because he has not come to me with any counter-arguments on the topic :-).
This is my quest to make a balanced, truly intellectual success story out of my children. There is no ‘ism’ in this thought process, just a bit of logic and unselfishness. The conscious unwillingness to get embroiled in a conflict of interests which is a matter of perception. This really is a distraction, which our youth do not need.
The problems and issues in our country are centric and specific to our country. These have to be looked at with a prism of our own, not look for solutions to it, from examples of other nations and other societies.
I will move on to the song post.
The song is an iconic song from the 1981 film “Kranti’. The punch line, or the concluding line of the song is
Mera chana hai apni marzi kaa
Marzi ka bhai marzi ka
Yeh dushman hai khudgarzi kaa
Khudgarzi ka khudgarzi kaa
“mera chana’ can be interpreted as ‘my passion’ or ‘my goal’, which really is to treat ‘khudgarzi’ i.e. selfishness as the enemy.
The song is iconic, as it has three legends of hindi film music singing it with the son of another legend. Mohammed Rafi, Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar are singing for Dilip Kumar, Shatrughan Sinha and Hema Malini, whereas Nitin Mukesh is giving playback to Manoj Kumar in the song, which is written by Santosh Anand and composed by Laxmikant-Pyarelal.
I used to hear the ‘sponsored programme’ of this film on Vividh bharati, I have seen the movie also long back. But I only recalled that Rafi Sahab is singing just one line for Dilip Kumar in this song. But now that I have seen and heard the song multiple times, the lines Rafi sahab is singing towards the end of the song, are definitely very significant and elevate the whole song to another level. The composition and orchestration have been kept very simple and basic by Laxmikant-pyarelal, so this is not a crowded song, with all these greats singing their parts, independently and together, with male and female chorus to add to the group.
This is the only song of these four singers. For Rafi sahab’s series, this must be the last such song remaining to be posted in the blog where Rafi sahab and Kishore Kumar are singing together, with or without Lata Mangeshkar and Nitin Mukesh. For Rafi-Lata duets, there are a few songs, at least one of them I plan to include in the series. So, this post takes care of Rafi sahab’s association with Kishore kumar, Nitin Mukesh and Santosh Anand.
Let us go to the song, and listen to the rendition which is a real ‘hair raising’ experience.

Songs from Artiste Name Films….Second Season….No. 9
————————————————-
Today’s song is from the film Noor Mahal-1965.
from the film title, can you guess who is today’s star of the post in this series ? Difficult to guess correctly. It is not about noorjehan, remember. While I discuss matters about this film and other aspects, you keep guessing about today’s star !
Film Noor Mahal-65 was made by Ratan productions and the film was directed by Nausheer Engineer. This was a Costume film dealing with the age old story of ‘ king, queen, wicked vizier and a lover couple ‘. Possibly this was one of the last such pictures in the late 60’s decade. The trend of films had changed drastically in the 60’s and this type of films had lost its audience now. The director Nausheer Engineer had directed 7 films in his career – all in C grade category. The films were, Inteqam-47, Shamsheerbaaz-53, Carnival queen-55, Diler Daku-57, Circus queen-59, Chini jaadugar-59 and his last film was Noor mahal-1965. There were two earlier films with the same title, one in 1934 and the other in 1954.
An interesting point about today’s film was its Music Director- Jaani Babu Qawwal ( arrangers Sonik-omi). He was born in 1935 at Hinganghat, maharashtra. His real full name was Jaan Mohammed Jani babu. He was known as a good qawwal. He came into films and acted in 9 films, but he sang 40 songs in 30 films. He also tried his hand at being a Music Director. His first attempt was today’s film ” Noor Mahal-1965 ‘. All the 6 songs in this film ( I have heard them all) were very good and 2 qawwalis from this film-including today’s qawwali- became popular. Despite providing good music, he did not get any film as an MD. Maybe because Sonic-Omi had left him. He managed to get two more Muslim religious film somehow – Qoobat E Parwardigaar-78 and Aulia E Islam-79. That was the end of his stint as an MD. His one qawwali ” Mehangai maar gayee” from the film Roti Kapda aur Makan-74 is remembered even today. Jani Babu Qawwal died on 28-1-2008.
The other famous qawwal in films was Shakeela Banu Bhopali. She was multitalented. She acted in 32 films, but sang only 4 songs in 3 films. She too gave music to just 1 film-‘ Maze Le Lo’- 1975. She died on 16-12-2002. These were the only well known qawwals who were active in various film fields.
The cast of the film Noor Mahal-35 was Chitra, Jagdeep, Tiwari, Lalita Desai, W.M.Khan, madhumati and others. One of the cast was Wazir Mohammed Khan aka W.M.khan. He is another interesting person associated with this film. W.M.Khan had the unique honour of being the First ever Male singer in In the Hindi talkie films of india. he had done the role of a Faqir in film ‘ Alam Ara ‘-1931, the first indian Talkie film, in which he had sung a song on screen himself-” de de khuda ke naam pe”. In his 42 years of film career, he acted in 105 films and sang 6 songs in 4 films-namely Alam ara-31, Sair E Paristan-34, Dard E dil-34 and Alam Ara -56. He had also sung, on screen, the famous song ” Aye mere watan ” in the film Kabuliwala-1961.
An Interesting thing about him is that he began his career in Talkie films with ‘Alam Ara’-1931 and ended also with the film Alam Ara-1973. In between, he acted in another version of Alam Ara in 1956, in which he sang the same song from the 1931 film again. But alas, both times, no record was issued on both occasions. Now none of those two films are available to see and enjoy !
Today’s song is sung by Usha Timothy and others. Usha Timothy, born on 8-10-1949, sang only 56 songs in 50 films. Later on she focussed on stage shows and multinational tours with few groups. She had created a stir in the industry by claiming that the famous Patriotic song ” aye mere watan ke logon “, sung famously by Lata Mangeshkar ( and which, reportedly, brought tears to Pandit Nehru’s eyes) was sung by her much earlier than lata, in a stage show conducted by C.Ramchandra himself. This was claimed by her, after the death of C.Ramchandra and could never be corroborated by anyone else. This matter was also discussed fiercely on the RMIM forum some years back.
The story of film Noor mahal-1965 was a concoction of several earlier stunt films. It was woven around a wicked brother, who kills his elder brother-the King. He also tries to kill the queen, the son and a daughter, but some loyal sardar escapes with the children. Cut to 20 years later….The brother now remembers that the king’s children were betrothed to a son and daughter of his friend. He then kills the friends and locks up the son. The daughter , however.
, pretends to love him and marry him. A masked girl rescues the son and they dutifully fall in love, sing songs etc. They are the real betrothed ones. All is well when the brother king is killed and the son becomes the King.
So much for the film. Now we return to our star of the post in this series. This is an actress about whom hardly anybody knows.
In the name of the film Noor Mahal is hidden a name of an actress…NOOR. (short for Noorjahan).
Have you any idea who this actress is ? Yes, she became the wife of comedian Johnny Walker. Born on 21-7-1940, she was the second of the 3 sisters. The eldest was Shakila, then Noor and lastly Nasreen.All 3 sisters joined films, but Shakila was the most famous and had a longer career span than the sisters.
Noor debuted as the child star singing the famous song,” Udan khatole pe ud jaun’ in the film Anmol Ghadi-46. Along with her the other child artist debutant was M.Kabir ( later father of actress Sonam). Then came Dard-47. In both these films, she was credited as Noor Mahal, but after this in all subsequent films, she was billed as Noor only. Noor acted in 16 films. They were Anmol Ghadi-46, Dard-47, khubsurat-52, Baghi-53, Do bigha zameen-53, Laila-54, Noor Mahal-54, khushboo-54, Aarpaar-54 ( singing Main na pyar karungi ), Naukri-54 ( as Kishore kumar’s sister,singing ‘ Chhota sa ghar hoga’ ), Mast Qalandar-55, Shahi chor-55, Sakhi hatim-55, Lutera-55, Heer-56 and Chand ki duniya-59. The last two films got delayed releases.
During the film Aarpaar-54, she acted in a very popular song,’ are na na na Tauba Tauba, main naa pyar karungi”, along with comedian Johnny Walker. Johnny fell in love with her and they got married in 1955. After marriage she stopped taking films anymore. The couple had 3 daughters and 3 sons. All 3 sons studied in the USA, all 3 daughters were married off before Johnny’s retirement from films. She stays in her bungalow, ” Noor Villa ” (as good as Noor Mahal !) in Andheri, Mumbai.
Now let us enjoy this very good qawwali.
