I have repeatedly stressed the fact that there was nothing B grade about the music of these so called B and C grade movies. But as far as the public were concerned, the music of these movies would fail to catch up, mainly because of lack of exposure. Since most people would not watch these movies, they would not be aware of these songs, and the records of these songs would not be made and sold as a result of non popularity of these songs.

In Indian culture, a man coming hard on an an unwilling woman is looked down upon and it is called “teasing”. But if a woman does it to an unwilling man, it is called “seduction”. 😉 Of course, Bollywood movies regard both these activities as desirable and as such we have had many “teasing” as well as “seductive” songs in Bollywood movies.

Even obscure movies can have wonderful music, as I have realised very well by now. And when it comes to finding out about obscure movies, Memsaab Story is just the blog. It is there that I learnt about obscure movies like “Miss Mary”,”Oonche Log”,”Ek Raaz”,”Aaya Toofaan”,”Reporter Raju” etc.Not just that, Greta (Memsaab) can identify lots and lots of humorous situations in these movies ( not intended to be humorous by the makers of these movies, incidentally).
