Regular by the calendar now, the century milestones are coming and passing with their fixed regularity. I suppose, this occasion is now taken for granted by the members of the bandwagon, the friend circle and the readers. The curiosity now is not so much, when the century milestone is coming up. Rather the curiosity now is, what is going to be the ‘century’ special that will be served up with the milestone. 🙂

Forty two years ago, this day (12th Sept), life deserted a very flamboyant, and a very energetic young artist, who had consistently occupied the top rungs of creative music making and of course, popular following. Along with his senior partner, when they broke upon the Hindi film world with a ‘Barsaat’ of absolutely sublime melodies in 1949, here was an artist duo who made it good right from the word go. 1949 is a fantastic year, considering the musicals that hit the Hindi film screen. A year such as this one, has not quite been repeated in the history of Hindi film music. Some writers argue in favor of another year two decades hence i.e. 1968-69. But the year of 1949 is probably still the winner. Making a debut in this year, competing against some of the best music directors in their prime, it is a huge notable that this young duo, of which the younger one was still to breach his twentieth year, made such a melodious splash. And the audiences readily caught on to the lovely strumming of “Mujhe Kisi Se Pyaar Ho Gayaa”.
