Non-Film Songs of Mukesh – 04
————————————————
A hat-trick of short songs and shorter posts.

For Mukesh’s Remembrance Day on 27 August 24, due to paucity of time, I had sent this short song from Sangam (1964).

Then, I happened to stumble upon another rare rendition by Mukesh from the film Duniya Na Maane (1959).

Today’s special post marks the 18400th song to be posted on the blog. It is being posted on 20th July 2024 which marks 52 years since the honey voiced Geeta Dutt left for her heavenly abode, too early at the age of just 41 years old leaving behind three children and a legacy that can never be forgotten by music lovers.

This post also marks her 1001st song to be posted on the group. We normally combine artists century songs with the blog’s century songs but we had erred in counting Geeta Dutt songs in the blog and She was already on 1000 songs. So this song is 1001st song of hers (sort of like a shagun) to mark the 18400th song on the blog.

Geeta Dutt is the fifth playback singer and 10th artist to complete 1000 songs in the blog. Lata, Rafi, Asha Bhonsle, Kishore Kumar are the other playback singers with 1000 plus songs in the blog. Two music directors duos (Shankar Jaikishan, Laxmikant Pyarelal) and three lyricists (Rajinder Krishan, Majrooh Sultanpuri, Anand Bakshi) are the other artists with 1000 plus songs in the blog.

The Voice of Mukesh #76
– – – – – – – – – – – – –

Celebrating the Centenary of Mukesh

“o jaane waale ho sakey to laut ke aana. . .

The film is ‘Bandini’ from 1963. Words from the pen of Shailendra and the music composition from the mind of SD Burman. The voice – is the voice that has embellished nearly a thousand songs, with an attractive rendition that makes the listeners fall in love with every song.

Yes, Mukesh.

Non-Film Songs of Mukesh – 03

Today, 22 July 2023 marks the birth centenary day of Mukesh Chand Mathur who was born in Delhi a hundred years ago.

His wiki page gives a fair information of his life and 36 years of film career which as we are all aware is mainly as a playback singer. In the initial part of his career he also acted, produced, and composed. However, his role as a playback singer put him high up on a pedestal as one of the greatest singers of all times. A singer whose very name brings to fond memories some of the exceptional songs that he rendered. A voice which touched the inner chords of human soul. A voice which we can easily associate and link to our daily lives. For sincerity, dedication and total submission to singing is what his voice is all about. Almost every song of his is a bhajan in my view as the voice was beyond the materialistic world and has one or the other facet of life covered. My song for this special post which we shall come up a bit later is a testimony to this view.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No. 31
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years back viz on 2 March 2013, four songs from four different movies (plus one NFS) were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Blog post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
7585 Aseer e gham ka bhala phir kahaan thhikaana thha Kamla Jharia NFS(1934)
7586 O paagal premi Saudaamini (1950) 7 songs covered out of 9 by now
7587 Main hoon kali matwaali Panghat(1943) 6 songs covered out of 12 by now
7588 Mausam hai bada mastaana Tarzan aur Hercules(1966) One song covered out of 5 by now
7588 Ae chaand ki zebaayi Chhoti Si Mulaaqaat (1967) Movie YIPPEED by now

We can see that one NFS and four film songs (from four different movies) were covered on this date ten years ago (on 2 March 2013). One movie (out of four) whose songs were covered on that day has since been YIPPEED in the blog. So three of those movies are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (2 March 2023).

Mukesh and his Co-Singers –9
———————————————-

Let me begin this post with a disclaimer to make it more interesting.

If you are reading this post, it means the editors have gratefully accepted my take on the subject and for the inclusion of this NFS in the above quoted series.

The series Mukesh and his co-singers had begun with Mukesh’s association with Rafi saab. Thereafter, I have covered a total of 4 each male and female co-singers. Amongst male singers apart from Rafi saab, Talat Mehmood, Kishore Kumar and Manna Dey have been covered.
A very important name missing amongst male singers was of course Mahendra Kapoor who not only has some good number of songs with Mukesh, but also had a close and friendly relationship with him. The obvious reason for the delay of this post was the fact that all of the known 12 songs in which they collaborated had already been covered on the blog.

Today we celebrate a combined anniversary of two singers. Two singers who were contemporary, two singers who were very good friends, two singers whose voices were considered almost similar. It is the birth anniversary of Geeta Dutt (nee Roy), and the remembrance day of Meena Kapoor.

The years 1980s and 90s were the golden period of TV serials which used to be telecast on National Doordarshan Channel.  The TV Serials of these period might have been lacking in technical specs as compared with that of the current TV serials. But what made these Doordarshan serials very popular was that they were mostly based on down to earth story lines, the good directions, the good performances of the lead and supporting actors and above all the absence of the present TRP dominated TV industry. These factors have made the TV serials of yore unforgettable for most of the the viewers including me. And the proof is that most of these serials had repeat telecasts on a number of times keeping in view the response from the viewers.
