In 1949, our Hindi film music got richer by the induction of a new lyricists team of Hasrat Jaipuri and Shailendra and the new music director duo of Shanker-Jaikishan to the Hindi film industry. Raj Kapoor was their god father and the film BARSAAT (1949) was to decide their destiny. The film became a super hit and this combined team of lyricists and musical duo ruled the Hindi film industry for the next two decades with their down to earth lyrics with masterly compositions. It is said that with successes at every stage, ego problems do crop up leading to crack in the team. It was creditable that the entire team of Hasrat Jaipuri, Shailedra, Shanker-Jaikishanand Raj Kapoor lasted until the death of Shailendra in December 1966 and enriched the golden era of Hindi film music with their contributions.

This post is a special post that celebrates the 400th song of Mukesh on this blog. Given that the total list of all known recordings of songs by Mukesh ji is just a little below one thousand (including all songs from Hindi films – 861, all songs from regional language films – 62, and non film renditions – 69), we are very close to hosting 50% of all the known film songs of Mukesh here. The numbers listed above are all the songs that are currently identified and for which the recordings are available. There definitely are more songs that have been recorded, but that have not been released and are not available, at least at present. Maybe someday, more songs may be uncovered and brought into circulation, but the thinking is that the number of such songs may not be very large in any case.

“Beti” (1969) is a movie which had Sanjay Khan, Nanda, Kamini Kaushal, Kishor Sahu, Rajendra Nath in it. I have not seen this movie but it is my theory that a movie whose title included words like “Beti”, “Bhabhi”, “Bahu” etc tend to be a tales of women who are shown sacrifices just for the sake of it. I do not know whether I am correct in my assesment of this movie that I have made just by looking at the title and the starcast. I request our knowledgeable readers to help confirm/ refute my guess about this movie.

It is a commonly held view that obscure movies and songs are those that were created long long ago. But that is not always the case. There could be movies and songs that may have ended up as obscure even if they may have been created as late as in 1980 !
