#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
————————————————————————

The biggest festival of our country ‘Diwaalee’ is here and people all over, irrespective of their caste, creed, religion and class, are celebrating this festival. However, life is not the same for all (just like ‘kabhee dhoop kabhee chhaaon’). The migrant labors working away from homes and families wait whole year for this festival to visit their homes. Relatives of such peoples await them to celebrate the festival together. I too have gone through similar situations in my working life (But those details are not the part of this post today.)

Life is hard and life is not the same for all. For some it is a happy diwaalee and for some it might be ‘sad diwaalee’ too. Still, we have to keep our morale high and not give up hope.

#the Decade of Thirties – 1931 – 1940 #
—————————————————————

The festival of light-Diwaalee is here and I take this opportunity to wish one and all a very happy, prosperous, healthy, safe and of course a full of music Diwaalee in this year 2025.

Each year when we celebrate Diwaalee our hearts are filled with nostalgia and music that has been an integral part of our life. Hindi Cinema music has given to us a number of songs for this occasion and they cover all human emotions in these songs whether happy, sad, bringing back memories, missing the beloved on festival etc etc.

This musical bandwagon i.e. our blog ‘atulsongaday…’ recently clocked the 19500th post and this was also a special post for another reason i.e. it marked the 3400th Rafi song on this blog.

That leads us to think about the Rafi songs that are yet to be presented here. We have a long way to go for that. The total number of Rafi songs for films are 4846 (as mentioned in the statistics page of the blog). So we have another 1446 Rafi songsleft to be covered in the blog provided they are all available for us to savour.

The previous post published earlier today was post number 19499. Eagle eyed regulars may have also noticed that today was 6300th day for the blog. So, going by past experience, they must be expecting the blog century post today.

They are not wrong, of course. When I noticed that we were approaching 6300th day for the blog, I decided to coincide that with blog century post. That meant I had to slow down from the usual rate of posts (3 to 4 posts a day) for a couple of days.

It is not the first time when blog century post has appeared on such a round hundred day for the blog. 18700th post had appeared on on 6000th day. Earlier 16900th post had appeared on 5000th day of the blog.

Mukesh and his NFS – 09

In the aftermath of Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination, the team of composers Hunslal-Bhagatram, lyricist Rajendra Krishna and singer Mohd. Rafi created a marathon NFS overnight. The song was over 12 minutes long and was made into 4 parts probably to fit on the 78-rpm record disc. The song was an instant hit all over the country.

On the blog, this song was represented way back in 2012 and here is the link.

During the same period, Mukesh also recorded a song on the situation and circumstances.

Today’s song is from a complicated film-Bindiya-1946.

There were 3 films with this title. I fail to understand why film titles are repeated so often, as if there is an acute shortage of titles. There are hundreds of such titles which are repeated from two to as many as 7 times. I have never found such repetition in Hollywood films. If at all there are any, they may be very rare cases.

Bindiya was made in 1946, 1955 and 1960. I remember writing a post on a song from the film Bindiya-1960, in which actor Om Prakash had sung a song. This was in my series of ” songs by non singers”, somewhere in the end of 2012.
