Today 8th September’2024 is the 91st birth anniversary (born on 08.09.1933) of legendary singer Asha Bhonsle.

It is customary for us on this blog that we post songs related to the celebrity on the day and discuss about their filmography or biography. Today’s celebrity singer Asha Bhonsle is already a living legend and there is nothing new left for me to add as far as her biography or filmography is concerned. Much has already been written about her online as well as in the print media. Sometimes new facts are brought to our notice through publications about them. We try to include such facts when we become aware of them . There is nothing new to report about Asha Bhonsle in this post. In this post I am bringing a lesse heard song of Asha Bhonsle to the notice of music lovers. I became aware of this song recently and I liked it a lot.

Today’s song is from a film which was a milestone in the lives of its Hero, Heroine, an actor, singer and the company that made this film. The film was Jeevan Naiya-1936, made by Bombay Talkies.

Amritsar born Canadian Indian, Deepa Mehta has been known for making feature films on social issues. Her most passionate film making project has been the ‘Element Trilogy’ – ‘Fire’ (1996), ‘1947 Earth’ (1998) and ‘Water’ (2005) for which she had received critical acclaim worldwide and also won her many awards.

I was a regular visitor to theatres for watching Hindi films during 1969-72. Almost every weekend (preferably Saturday afternoon shows), I would watch Hindi films in theaters irrespective of what critical reviews say about the films. Gradually, I developed some aversion to Hindi films and my visits to theatres became fewer. I guess, by mid-1975, my visits to theatres for watching Hindi films was considerably reduced to a couple of films in a year, that too after reading positive reviews or on the recommendation of my relatives/friends. The last Hindi film which I watched in the theatre was ‘83’ (2021) in the last week of December 2021. Of course, now OTT platforms have given an alternative option to watch the films of our choices and our convenient time at home with family.

Today’s song is from the film Harihar Bhakti-1956. This was a story from Vishnu Puran. It is also mentioned in Shiv Puran as a story on Banasur. of course the story was adapted to suit the film requirements. When such stories are used for films, naturally there is plenty of room for adaptation and imagination, because every detail is not mentioned in the original story.
