EID MUBARAK to all our readers, wherever they are on this Globe. Today is a Happy day for the celebrations.
Having grown up in HYDERABAD-the Muslim state of the Nizam- in the 40s,( Hyderabad was annexed to India in 1948,after Patel’s ‘Police Action’), I have very fond memories of Eid. Though Hyderabad merged with India, It was an independent state till 1-11-1956, therefore the Muslim customs, manners, festivals, education and Eating habits continued to have a major influence on Hyderabad public. (In Nov 1956, Hyderabad was Trifurcated. 5 districts of Marathwada merged with Bombay state, 3 Kannada speaking districts merged with Karnataka and remaining 8 Telugu speaking districts merged into the newly formed Andhra Pradesh.( and again now these 8 districts are separating from Andhra Pradesh to form Telangana State !).

Here is the third Rafi solo beginning with the alphabet ‘C’. And what is better than C for ‘chaand’. The hit song from ‘ Ham kisi se kam nahin ‘ (1977) is composed by R D Burman and written by Majrooh Sultanpuri. The iconic song in this film Kya hua tera waada is already posted. One more song viz. Ye ladka haaye allah kaisa hai deewaana has also been posted. I have just revisited that page.
