In 2003 this was a very popular song.  They would constantly play this song on FM channels.  We had kept a small FM radio in the office, and usually it was kept on from mid-day, when all the urgent work of the section was done.  Rest of the work could be handled while listening to songs on FM radio. Listening to it many times, tends to make transcribing the lyrics, an easy task. Analyzing the words and their meaning is not so simple.

Hullo Atuldom

‘Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein’ (RHTDM – 2001) was produced by Vashu Bhagnani and directed by Gautam Vasudev Menon. It was either a remake or made along side Gautam Vasudev Menon’s Tamil ‘Minnale’. ‘Minnale’ released in February and RHTDM released in October 2001. Both the versions had R Madhavan play the lead, music was by Harris Jayaraj (I think both the movies were the composers’ debut in the respective languages).

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 49
————————————————————————————–

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Ye Zindagi Kitni Haseen Hai-1966’.

This movie is eligible for representation on the blog today as one of its’ songs was posted ten years back on 02.06.2012.

This day (2 June) that year (in 2012) saw as many as five posts on the blog as per details given below.

Song Movie title(Year) Remarks
Sur saritey kalyaanmayi Prabhu Ki Maaya(1955) 5 of 9 songs posted
Bahut aasaan hai chilman se lagkar muskuraana Rangeen Raatein(1956) All songs covered
Bahut purdard hai ye sunanewaalon Birha Ki Raat(1950) All songs covered
Khudaara yoon dil naa todo Ye Zindagi Kitni Haseen Hai(1966) 4 of 7 songs posted
Ye pyaar thhaa ya kuchh aur thhaa Prem Rog(1982) 4 of 6 songs posted

Out of the five movies mentioned above all songs of two movies viz. ‘Rangeen Raatein-1956’ and ‘Birha Ki Raat-1950’ have been covered. That leaves with us three movies viz. ‘Prabhu Ki Maaya-1955’, ‘Ye Zindagi Kitni Haseen Hai-1966’ and ‘Prem Rog-1982’ that still offers us songs that are yet to be covered.

Today’s song is from the film ‘Daasi’ (1944).

The film was made by Pradhan Pictures, Lahore, and was directed by Hiren Bose. The music was by Pt. Amarnath Batish (to avoid ‘same name confusion‘ the other Music Director Pt. Amarnath Chawla, I am mentioning their surnames also). Funniest thing is Pradhan Pictures was owned by Sanjay Pradhan – a person from Orissa, Director hiren Bose was from Bengal and Pt. Amarnath, MD was from Punjab. They all came together in the most popular and beautiful city of those times ‘Lahore’, to make a film which became a hit, mostly because of its music.

Hullo Atuldom

A song from a new movie (by the standards of this blog) for the listening pleasure of followers of this blog.

‘Hungama (The Ruckus)’ is a 2003 release – nearly 20 years old already –  that was produced by Venus records and tapes and directed by Priyadarshan. One of the many that Priyan (as his friends in the South address him as) remade from Malayalam hits. It was a remake of Priyans’ Malayalam ‘Poochakkoru Mookkuthi’ (meaning A Nose-ring for the Cat) which was itself a remake of the Telugu movie ‘Gopala Rao Gari Ammayi’ which had elements borrowed from the plot of Charles Dickens ‘The Strange Gentleman’.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 49
————————————————————————————–

Welcome all to this post under ‘blog ten year challenge 2012-2022’.

Today’s(30 May 2022) song is from the movie ‘Jheel Ke Us Paar-1973’.

One song from this movie was presented on the blog on 30.05.2012 alongwith two more songs as listed below.

Song Title Name of the movie (year) Remarks
Chhod chale pyaari duniya ko Bhaagam Bhaag(1956) All songs covered
Maine dekha usne dekha pyaar ho gaya Aaya Saawan Jhoom Ke(1969) All songs covered
Baabul tere baagaan di main baabul Jheel Ke Us Paar(1973) 4 of 6 songs posted

We can see from the above table that only three songs were posted ten years back on this day (still better than the current rate in the same month ten years later in 2022, which is one song per day 🙂 ).

The average of the month ‘May-2012’ was 4.12 songs per day which means a total of 128 songs were covered in the month of ‘May-2012’.

If we look the figures of songs posted in the month of ‘May’ since the inception of the blog we get the following figures.

YEAR May
2008 0* (Blog started in the month of July’2008)
2009 194
2010 64
2011 107
2012 128
2013 142
2014 75
2015 61
2016 35
2017 81
2018 67
2019 40
2020 60
2021 55
2022 33*

We can see that the highest score for the month of ‘May’ is 194 in the year ‘2009’. And the lowest score of ‘May’ is 35 in the year ‘2016’. In the current year this month the figure stands at 33 so we can hope that it will either go past the lowest figure of ‘35’ or it may even end up in a ‘tie’ for the lowest score for the month. In these fourteen years ‘May’ has seen four centuries 194, 107, 128, & 142 in the year 2009, 2011, 2012 & 2013 respectively. There have been seven half centuries – 64, 75, 61, 81, 67, 60 & 55 in the years – 2010, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2020 & 2021 respectively.

In the beginning years of this millennium, we among the last dwellers of last millennium, were kept mesmerized with old Hindi film songs.  This was a willing intoxication, which made it possible to deal all difficulties, happiness, sadness, tragedies etc. that life chose to throw at us.   Often the songs that played randomly in a collection of songs playing on computer would become a subject of discussion.

#The Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # Ek Naao Do Kinaare – 1973#
————————————————————–

This Friday when I was listening to the program ‘Shaam Sindoori’ on my return travel from office to home, I was awestruck when I listened to a song sung by Rafi Saab.

It was like I was listening to this song for the first time. I do not remember if I have listened to it earlier. This song was ‘ye shaam hai dhuaan dhuaan fizaa bahot udaas hai’. I immediately fell in love with this song. After all it had Rafi Saab’s voice and a very nice composition too.
