The song under discussion is from the movie ‘Hari Darshan-1972’. It was a mythological movie.

I enjoyed watching mythological movies during my childhood, both in colour as well as black-white (most of them used to be black and white). Mythological movies used to faascinate me.

However I have no recollections of watching ‘Hari Darshan-1972’ dring its first run. But I remember the songs of this movie that were ofen played on loudspeakers during festivals. Its songs were ofen heard on radio as well.

I have presented two songs from this movie in the past . This song, the third song from the movie being presented in the blog was a familiar song to me, but I was not aware till recently that this song had three versions. I was only aware of Lata Mangeshkar version of this song.

(Lyricist Kavi Pradeep-47)

In our journey of bringing Kavi Pradeep songs on this blog today we add one more song penned by him. This song is from the movie ‘Veer Bhimsen-1964’. This movie was produced & directed by Chandrakant for Joy Films, Bombay. The video of this movie available on internet has the date of passing of Censor Board as 19.12.1974 which must be its date of renewal of the certificate. From it we can guess that the movie was initially passed by Censor Board on 19.12.1964 for its first run. One more movie with this same title was later released in 1985 (passed by Censor Board on 24.04.195). Kavi Pradeep was the lyricist for both the movies.

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Shree Ram Bharat Milan-1965’. It is the final song from this movie to be posted thus this song will cover all songs of this movie here today.

In the cast of this movie we have Prithviraj Kapoor playing Raja Dashrath, Nirupa Roy as Kaikeyi, Sulochana as Kaushalya, Anita Guha playing Seeta, actor Mahipal as Raam, and actor Rajkumar (from south?) as Bharat.

#Yippeeee to Aanchal-1980 #
———————————————

In this post I am presenting a nice ‘morning’ /‘bhor’ song’ from the movie ‘Aanchal-1980’.

Picturisation shows a big house in a vilage where most of the main characters in the movie reside. Rakhee is lip syncing this good morning song in the voice of Lata Mangeshkar. Two decades ago, we had Meena Kumari lip syncing in Lata Mangeshkar’s voice another good morning song ‘jyoti kalash chhalke.’

Like what Meena Kumari was shown doing in that iconic “Bhaabhi Ki Choodiyaan”(1961) song, this “Aanchal”(1980) song shows Rakhee playing her role as an ‘ideal Bhaarteey Naari’ performing early morning household chores such as spraying water (mixed with ‘gobar’), ‘tulsi kee pooja’, feeding the birds, extracting water for household works from the pump, waking up other members of the household, preparing them for going to their work etc.

Today, September 03, 2025 is the 28th Remembrance Day of a well-known lyricist who wrote more than 1300 songs in over 300 films. His name was Lalji Pandey but his college friends gave him a pseudo name, ‘Anjaan’ while participating in mushaira in the college functions as well as elsewhere. He retained this pseudo name when he started writing articles, poems and later lyrics.

Anjaan (28/10/1930 – 03/09/1997) was born in Odar village, about 30 kms from Banaras. His father was working as a peon in Central Bank of India, Banaras. After completing the primary school in his village, Anjaan came to Banaras and completed high school. His father was keen that he also joins the bank services like him. So, he put him in commerce stream of Banaras Hindu University from where he passed B.Com. In this way, Anjaan became the first graduate from his village.

We have been presenting Shiv stuti songs on every Monday, right from the beginning of saawan maas. Saawan commenced one fortnight in advance in North India vis a vis central and southern parts of India. After Rakshabandhan, saawan is over in North India, but it still continues in central and southern parts of India.

The Monday of today (11 august 2025) is the fifth shraavan somvaar counting from the time saawan began in North India. However, it is the third shrawan somwar for the central-southern parts. This gives us another opportunity to have a shiv-stuti song here on the blog.

The song in this post is from the movie “Akhand Saubhaagyawati” directed by Rakesh Nahta for ‘Dhwani Prakash, Bombay’. He was also the producer of this movie. It had Reeta Bhaduri, Arvind Kumar, Kalpana Deewan, Chandrakant Pandya, Nalin Dave, Kanchan Mattu, Kamini Bhatiya, Krupadev Yanik, Javed Mishra, Chandrakant Thakkar, Vishnu Kumar Vyas, Master Bittoo and others. This movie ‘Akhand Saubhaagyawati’ was passed by Censor Board on 10.07.1981.

# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # Bajrangbali-1976#
————————————————

Today 12th April 2025, which is the tithee Chaitra Poornima, Hanuman Jayanti is being celebrated all over. On this occasion here is song from the movie ‘Bajrangbali-1976’. It is one of those movies which I watched during my childhood days. I have vague recollections of watching it with my younger brothers and cousins. I had earlier presented two songs from this movie on the blog. Out of these two songs one song ‘hey manwaa re’ is the song which is pure nostalgia for me and it has been permanently embedded on my impressionable mind since my childhood days.
