That moment is here again with us. The moment when we reach a century of songs in the blog and post a special song to mark the occasion.

What is so special, one may ask. We already have 173 such occasions in the blog.

Indeed we had 173 such occasions and this is the 174th century for the blog.

Still, I find this century somewhat different vis a vis other centuries in general, and with other recent centuries in particular.

The Indian film industry has been absorbing and giving opportunities to all people in India, irrespective of their Caste, Culture, Language, Religion or Province. Maharashtra being ” The birthplace of Indian Film industry” (not my words, but a title of the English book by Isaq Mujavar), initially the film industry had a sizable majority of Marathi and Gujarati people. The Marathis had the talent and the Gujaratis had the money power. After some time, slowly people from all regions, religions and provinces joined the industry. By the time of the First talkie film came, the first film “Alam Ara”-1931 virtually reflected the representations of the variety of people operating in the film industry.

The previous century post was published on 31 December 2012. So it is easy to calculate that this century came in 24 days, which was slow by the then standards of the blog. 🙂 Well, well.

“Chehra”(1946) was an obscure movie. Very little information is available on this movie. Our inhouse encyclopedia, Mr Arunkumar Deshmukh, while discussing a song from this movie, had shared some rare information about this movie.

#Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (missing movies of 1974)
————————————

During my daily search for songs, I keep coming across many songs which are yet to be posted on the blog. Here I am referring mainly to songs from the decade of ‘seventies’ i.e., 1971-1980. Sharing songs from this decade (1971-1980) is my ‘foremost objective’, as this period is related to my growing years and nostalgia associated with movies and songs from these years.

The song being presented in this post is a song from a movie released in the year 1965. Regulars on the blog would remember that our Respected Sudhir ji had started a series called ‘missing movies of the sixties’ where songs from till then unrepresented movies were introduced. These songs were rare songs that were difficult to find and many of them were not not available online at that time.
