Ganpati Bappa Morya!! One more Ganesh festival in the life of this blog. We have been having songs from bollywood movies posted in this blog every year. So why should this year be any different. And have we run out of Ganesh festival songs? Answer is no. As long as bollywood is there we will have some hero do the Ganesh aarti and set up a Ganesh pandal—atleast in their films.

Two important birthdays coming together today – 8th September. One is music director S Mohinder and the second is Asha Bhonsle. These two have created a number of songs together. Some memorable, and others, like this one, need to be rediscovered for their sheer beauty and simplicity of pleasure. During our visit to Bombay last month, Bakshi ji and I had the good fortune to spend a whole afternoon with S Mohinder ji.  A session that lasted almost four hours – it was a wonderful trip down the memory lane, for him, as well as for us.  That meeting itself is a detailed writeup that is waiting in the drafts list.  For this occasion, I am quoting two episodes where S Mohinder ji remembered Asha ji very fondly.

Genius of Jaidev – 25
———————————-

In this series, we are trying to cover all the songs from 1957 film ‘Anjali’, which happens to be Jaidev’s third released film. Prior to this, he had only one released film in each of the prior two years; 1955 – ‘Joru Ka Bhai’, and 1956 – ‘Samundari Daku’. Not at all a successful entry in film music world. He had to wait till 1961 and the film ‘Hum Dono’ to be recognized as a great composer, capable to catch attention of classes and masses. However, to the true good music lovers (including me), all of his tunes right from his first film are gems.

The decade of the 50s and the 60s clearly belonged to Johnny Walker. From 1951 to 1969, JW worked in 142 films – an average of 6 films per year. This means, every 2 months a JW film was released. This is a very high average, which I feel many leading stars also must have found difficult to achieve for successive years. There must be very few to get this number. In the year 1955 alone his 17 films were running at a time in theatres ! In the period 1970 to 1989 he did only 42 films, which averages to almost just 2 films a year.

Festivals are integral part of our culture and traditions. And the films, songs associated with mythological themes, festivals are integral part of nostalgia of music lovers like me and those who grew up listening such songs in their respective ‘formative years’ of life.

Songs to Tickle Your Memory – 24
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

It is not that Arvinder ji has requested this song loong back. His request is fairly recent. But he has been so consistently persistent that he has been reminding me at least twice a day (somedays even more than twice) to post this song. A song that has been in the memory for oh so long. But he could not find it anywhere on the internet and YouTube. When he checked with me a few days ago, I confirmed to him that yes, I have it. Then last week, it so happened that he was riding with me in my car, and I had the very CD in the player, that contains this song. When the song played, wow, the excitement on his face was something that has to be seen to be believed.

Genius of Jaidev – 24
———————————-

The 1957 film ‘Anjali, produced by Kala Kunj, Bombay (to the surprise of younger generation, our state was called ‘Bombay’ then) and directed by Chetan Anand had music by our Jaidev with lyrics by Nyay Sharma.  This theme song was often repeated in the film. The film starts with melodious ‘alaaps’ by Lata, following the hymns ‘Buddham Sharanam Gachchhaami ….’. Later on there is a chorus lead by Rafi. I am sure this must have been repeated several times.  In the end the video of the last stanza surprisingly emerges on YouTube. (This raises our hope that there must be video of the film available in video cassette form, which may surface anytime, in future, to our delight.)

Since the title portion would not qualify individually, to be posted on our Blog, having no singing words, I combined it in the beginning of the main Rafi and chorus song.  Again the short video of the last stanza emerged, so that too, was combined for this presentation. (achchha kiya na?)

Since Sheila Ramani and Chetan Aanand are seen in the concluding scene, there must have been two heroines in this film – Sheila and Nimmi – for lucky Chetan Aanand.

Jaidev, composed nine melodious tunes, out of ten, for this film. But as far as this classic Buddha prayer is concerned, he totally copied lying down with closed eyes, the Sinhalese original version.

Hearty greetings to all friends and readers on the celebration of the Raksha Bandhan festival today.

Ok, ok, I know the query springing in your mind. No, I have not fallen off the edge of the earth. Very much here, reassuringly. Just that the cycles of fate brought in significant distractions and preoccupation for both Atul ji and myself, at the same time. The postings are just a trickle these days. But things on the personal and work fronts are keeping both of us away. Atul ji has been maintaining the trickle, whereas I have not been able to get anything on to the blog for days on end now. Long stories are often uninteresting, so I will cut it short, and say that days of drought are coming to a close. How soon, you may want to know. Pretty soon, I assure you. 😉 Hopeful to see more activity moving forward, and then we should be back to our regular output shortly.
