Today, December 10, 2025, is the 24th Remembrance Day of Kumudlal Ganguly, well-known by his screen name, Ashok Kumar (13/10/1911 – 10/12/2001), the first super star and the Bhishma Pitamah of Hindi films. He was conferred the Dadasaheb Phalke Award in 1988 for his contributions to Indian Cinema and Padma Bhushan Award in 1999.
Ashok Kumar was the eldest among four siblings and his father, a practicing lawyer in Khandwa wanted him to follow his profession. He was admitted to a law college in Kolkata where he may have been influenced by New Theatres films thus creating his interest in cinema. But his interest was confined to the technical side of the film making. He joined The Bombay Talkies as a laboratory technician where his brother-in-law (sister’s husband), Sashadhar Mukerji was a sound engineer and production manager in 1934.

To change our mood and taste from Asha Ji’s rare songs, we move towards my most favourite amongst all the playback singers in all languages, the Legend worthy of being awarded the Bharat Ratna, Mohd. Rafi Saab.
We will keep the discussion about the Bharat Ratna for another day.
‘Rootha Na Karo’ is a film from the banner of Nirmal Pictures, Bombay, directed by Sundar Dar. All the seven songs in this film are written by Hasrat Jaipuri. The star cast of the film is led by Shashi Kapoor and Nanda, along with Naaz, Rajendra Nath, Aruna Irani, Sulochana, Lakshmichaya, Jaishri Talpade, Saroj, Shobha, Tuntun, Mirza Musharraf, and Reeta amongst others.

Kamsune/Unsune songs of Asha Bhosle – 18
Today’s song “Saaqiyaa Saaquiyaa Aankhon Se Jaam Pila De” by Asha Bhosle is another rare/rarely heard song from the 1960s.
The 1967 Hindi historical drama “Nawab Sirajuddaula” is a film based on the life and times of Siraj ud-Daulah, the last independent Nawab of Bengal. The film chronicles the political intrigue, betrayal, and colonial conspiracy that led to one of the most significant events in Indian history — the Battle of Plassey in 1757.

Today’s song is from the film Nek Parvin-1946. It was produced under the banner of D.R.D.Productions – Bombay. This banner was floated by D.R.D. Wadia, a cousin of the owners of “Wadia Movietone” – J.B.H. and Homi Wadia. He was professionally a Barrister from London, but seeing the success of his cousins and having the blood of a business clan, he too entered film production. However, after producing just 4 films (Ishara-43, Aina-44, Nek Parvin-46 and Pati Sewa-47), he closed this business and concentrated on his legal profession.

Today’s song is from an old film Paak Daman-1940.
Actually, I need not have written ” from an old film”, because my name is now firmly connected with old films only. This is in spite of my posts on a fair number of films and songs from 1970 to 2016 also. However branding and the label has stuck to me pucca.

Today’s song is from the film Aaj aur Kal (1947).
This was actually an unique film having an unusual storyline in which was shown a City Of Future i.e. a city of the year 2047 ! Hindi film industry is not known to make films based on scientific or science fiction stories. 99.99 % filmmakers did not dare make such films for fear of losing money if the film fails. However, its not that such films were not made at all, but their number would not fill even the number of fingers on both hands !

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No. 40
————————————————————————————–
On this date ten years back viz on 12 March 2013, eight songs from eight different movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-
| Blog post number | Song | Movie (Year) | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7658 | Kyun tumne hamko daraaya | Prem Sangeet (1943) | 4 songs covered out of 10 by now |
| 7659 | Raat ki malka ban thhan ke | Ismat(1944) | 3 songs covered out of 7 by now |
| 7660 | Preet ki jyot jalaakar chup hai | Vishkanya(1943) | 7 songs covered out of 12 by now |
| 7661 | Chaand mera baadalon mein kho gaya | Pathan (1962) | 4 songs covered out of 7 by now |
| 7662 | Raja haweli ki khidki zara kholna re | Veer Rajputaani(1955) | 5 songs covered out of 9 by now |
| 7663 | Assalaam aalekum baabu | Kalpana(1960) | 6 songs covered out of 10 by now |
| 7664 | Aayegaa kaun yahaan | Gumnaam (1965) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
| 7665 | Meri patni mujhe sataati hai | Pati Patni(1966) | movie YIPPEED by now |
It can be noticed that two movies (out of eight movies) whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (on 12 March 2013) have since been YIPPEED on the blog. That leaves us with six movies that are still unYIPPEED and therefore eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (12 March 2023).

What is going on today? I am sure this question is worrying the minds of quite a few if not many or all regulars of this blog. Atul ji seems to be in a big hurry today. Seven posts already since his first good morning call at 5 am. Aha, so getting to the century number it seems. Yeah, ok, that’s it, he wants to complete the century, and make the century post today. But why? What is the tearing need? Is there a birthday not known to anybody? Is it a special day for someone on the bandwagon or in the industry? The anniversary page has no listing for today. ये क्या हो रहा है? क्या चल रहा है?
