The Voice of Mukesh #59
– – – – – – – – – – – – – –

At last I have been able to locate and acquire this song that has been pending in this journey of Mukesh songs, for quite some time. This song from 1948, could not be showcased earlier. There is one version available on the YouTube, but that is just one third of the song, only about one minute of play. (I have written about this behavior of some people, who will post partial songs online, and then wait for others to get in touch with them. There is a commercial angle involved here). Any way, I have now been able to get this song from another friend and fan of Mukesh.

Badalte Huye Saathi- Episode 1 (Shanta Apte and Vasanti)
———————————

Music is an inseparable part of Indian culture. Music rules our lives. Right from Birth to Death, there is always music going on in the lives of Indians. So, it was no wonder that when silent films started talking, they also started singing. The very first Talkie film of India, Aalam Ara-1931 had 7 songs in it. The very fact that the producers felt the need to include songs in the film, underlines the importance of music in the lives of the movie goers.

Nainon se nain milaa ke : Song No. 6

Since yesterday, I was looking for a song from Qaatil (1960), whose link was proving elusive, though other songs from the film are available on youtube. While looking for the song from I stumbled upon another duet which is in line this series of ‘nainon se nain milaa ke’.

Muzaffar Ali is one of the few Hindi filmmakers who spearheaded what was known as parallel cinemas during 70s and 80s. He came into the scene of parallel cinemas when some of the films under this tag such as Mrinal Sen’s ‘Bhuvan Shome’ (1969), Mani Kaul’s ‘Uski Roti’ (1969), Kumar Sahani’s ‘Maya Darpan’ (1972), M S Sathyu’s ‘Garam Hawa’ (1973), Shyam Bengal’s ‘Ankur’ (1974) etc were critically acclaimed. Being low budget films, some of these films fared well at the box office.

haseenon ke jalwe pareshaan rehte

(‘Baabar’, 1960)

Men, they say, are from Mars. I am sure all the lady friends and readers on this blog will readily agree. No doubt when they need favors from their better halves, the pleading, hang-dog look on their faces is really very “maasoom”. But when they are in their own swing, well then the head is in the sky, and the whole creation is tiny and petty in comparison. Or so they say.

In the earlier post today, I had mentioned about the somewhat not-so-well-organized collection that is sitting on my hard drives. There is so much that I still have to explore myself. Even I myself am not fully aware of all the items that are sitting in there. It is an unsavory situation, in case I have to search for something and I do not know whether I will find it there. At other times, it is also a lot of fun, to be able to locate and bring out items that I remember or that other friends have requested for. (Please do not think I am trying to impress that my collection is exhaustive. It is not. 😉 )

The Voice of Mukesh #58
– – – – – – – – – – – – – –

Yes, I return to 1948 again today. A song that has been pending, for want of being located. And now I have it. The film is ‘Chaand Sitaare’. And lo, what a gem of a song has been discovered. Every time such a thing happens, i.e. coming across an unheard and a very obscure gem, there is such a feeling of exhilaration on the discovery. And also, the reassurance that there still are many such songs waiting out there in what we call the ocean of Hindi film music, all waiting for someone to pick them up and bring up to the surface and to the attention of the listeners. Oh yes, I am sure many people with a long association with this love of Hindi film music would have heard of this and other such lost gems. But getting to it and finding out that it is now available online, gives such a sense of accomplishment.

In the earlier days of this blog, I would just discuss songs that occurred to me. With time, when we had some critical mass of songs we began to think in terms of discussing all the songs figuring in movies. At that time we relied upon our readers possessing HFGK to tell us which songs from which movies remained to be discussed.

I am sure all of us have experienced this at one time or another. It is just the words, the lyrics that simply bowl you over with their simplicity and their beauty. That is what happened when I heard this song for the first time recently. When I read the first mukhda of this song, it is half a line – “Ek Tu Ke Sar Utha Ke Chala”, well the very first impression that came to my mind was song of patriotism or a song of a soldier. But when I actually got hold of the song and heard it, my word, it turns out to be a song of romance, one of the best in the theme of ‘Chaand’ and love. As I said, the words just bowled me over, lock, stock and barrel.

Hindi Film Industry is like an ocean. As many rivers finally join the sea and lose their individuality, many artistes from all over the country join this industry and then lose their identity. Few are lucky and Talented who not only protect their identity but are also remembered for a long time. What happens to the artistes after they end their career ? Where do they go, what do they do ?
