This article is the 9600th song post in the blog.

chanchal mann, kaahe dharke
ruk ja ruk ja
o zaraa tham jaa
tham jaa

Ah yes, one can sense the feeling. The grand milestone seems just around the corner and we have 9600 on the scoreboard today. And so I caution my heart to not be impatient. The rolling pace continues to be consistent, but somehow it seems that the 10 thousand mark is approaching at a faster velocity. Just another three century milestones away now. Just about 9 more weeks or so to go.

Badalte Huye Saathi- Episode 2 (Khursheed Bano and Vasanti)
———————————

We have seen, in the First episode of this series, how the initial Hindi film music was influenced by the local conditions. Same was the position for films made in Calcutta during that period. These film songs were totally influenced-nay depended on the Robindra Sangeet and the Nazrul geeti etc.

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.

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.

And so wrote the scribe. . .

haseenon ke jalwe pareshaan rehte
agar hum na hotey, agar hum na hotey

(‘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. 😉 )
