Scandals in public life, especially crimes of passion, have always attracted the attention of Hindi movie makers and a few of them have actually gone on and made movies based on such scandals. Even at present, we find a movie maker making a movie on a woman who murdered her ex boyfriend with the help of her current flame.

“Aar Paar” (1954) was clearly a milestone in the annals of Hindi movies. The songs of this movie were quite different from the kinds of songs that the music lovers were used to. And all the songs of the movie became popular and remain popular to this day. In fact there are so many popular songs in this movie that it is easy to lose count of them.

Public have a se idea about the roles that the two genders play and they are used to the same roles being played by them in Hindi movies too. But sometimes movie makers come up with situations when the two genders behave in a rather unusual manner not expected of that gender and that makes amusing viewing for the public and subsequently more visits to the cinema hall for the movie makers.

These days I have begun to look at Rafi-Lata duets with renewed interest. My interest has been aroused after I learnt some interesting statistics about the number of duets the two have sung together. It is estimated that the duo have sung about 410 odd duets. It excludes those songs in which some other voices were also present. And it also excludes multiple version songs (viz. same song sung separately by the two).

“Amar” (1954) is a movie starring Dilip Kumar and Madhubala. Those were the days when the two of them were actually romantically involved and their off screen chemistry used to be visible in their on screen performances too.

Shammi Kapoor discovered his calling as the actor we all know and admire in 1957 with “Tumsa Nahin Dekha”. It was followed by “Dil Deke Dekho” (1959) and the phenomenon of Shammi Kapoor was well on its way.

It is an unenvious task for a music director when he is asked to create a song that should be inspired from an iconic song and at the same time it should stand out on its own. I am sure the makers of “Jab Jab Phool Khile” (1965) wanted Kalyanji Anandji to create a song similar to the iconic song Yahoo chaahe koyi mujhe junglee kahe(Junglee). It is not at all an enviable job by any stretch of the imagination.

Normally it is believed that old songs are obscure songs and new songs are better known songs. But that is not always the case. I find that several recent songs (anything created in 1970s and later are recent by the standards of this blog. 😀 ) have been forgotten in double quick time.
