Every year, hundreds of Hindi feature films are certified by Censor Board of Film Certification (CBFC). Just for a sample check, I found that for the years 1951-1980, on an average, 100-120 Hindi features films had been certified/released. I am sure the number of Hindi films certified/released in the subsequent decades must have increased significantly. There were many Hindi feature films which had been shot but got shelved or remained incomplete or if completed, remained unreleased. I checked on the websites of Indian Motion Pictures Producers Association (IMPPA) and Producers Guild of India (GUILD) for the list of such films. Unfortunately, no such information is available on the website. It is one more example of the poor upkeep of film related statistics.

(Martyr’s day 2024)

Today 30th January is the ‘martyr’s day’ where we pay our tributes to all the known and unknown martyrs of this great country.

For years together we have grown-up reading stories of our freedom struggle and the great revolutionaries who sacrificed their lives on the way of their fight for freedom of this country.

Today’s song is from an inspirational religious film Jagadguru Shankaracharya-1955.

In Mahabharat, there is a dialogue between Lord Shri Krishna and Arjun. The legend says that when Kauravas and Pandavas stood opposite each others for a war on Kurukshetra, Dhritrashtra,the blind father of Kauravas asked Sanjay- who had the divine power of seeing the war at Kurukshetra- to describe him the war happenings. Sanjay starts and in the course of his reporting, the entire Geeta too is narrated.

Today’s song is from the film Mahapooja aka Shri Satyanarayan Katha-1954.

Marriage fixed, New House Entry, New Job, Promotion, Shravan Maas, any Happy event in life and we always celebrate by doing a ‘Satyanarayan Pooja’. It is one of the most popular and common pooja that is performed in all over India, except 2-3 states. Satyanarayan is NOT an Avatar of Lord Shri Vishnu. It is just another form of Vishnu.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No.65
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years ago (6 April 2013), eight songs from eight different movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Post No Song Title Name of the movie Remarks
7831 Ek nek tabeeyat raaja thha Abhagin (1938) 5 songs covered out of 11 by now
7832 Naiyya dheere dheere jaana Chitralekha (1941) 4 songs covered out of 10 by now
7833 Sochta kya hai sudarshan ke chalaane waale Neelkamal(1947) Movie YIPPEED by now
7834 Ho tere bin meri zindagi kis kaam ki Suhaag Raat (1948) movie YIPPEED by now
7835 Nahin boloon nahin boloon Tamaasha(1952) 7 songs covered out of 8 by now
7836 Torey naina raseelry kateeley haay raam Hamdard (1953) Movie YIPPEED by now
7836 Jhoomo re jhoomne ke din aaye Fashionable Wife (1959) 4 songs covered out of 10 by now

We observe that four movies (out of eight) whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (on 6 April 2013) have since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with four unYIPPEED movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (6 april 2023).

“Fashionable wife”(1959) is one of the four unYIPPEED movies and is therefore eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (6 aprl 2023).
