“Ratan”(1944), or ‘Rattan” as it is mentioned in old posters, was a turning point in Hindi movie music. Before this movie, the movie music was based on classical music.

When I was young, I disliked old songs, and I would only listen to new songs, which meant songs of 1970s. But now I cannot have enough of old songs, viz songs of 1950s and even earlier. In fact, I love the music of the songs in these songs.

I can not recall this movie called “Suraj Aur Chandaa” (1973) which was released during by early teen years. But when I stumbled upon the songs of this movie recently, I realised that I had listened to these songs those days. In fact, a few of these songs were extremely popular and I enjoyed listening to them.

Here is another song which is “new” for me. I had neither heard about this song or about this movie called “Zindagi Aur Ham” (1962). This movie had Dinesh (?), Nalini Jaywant, Chand Usmani, David, Mukri etc. The fact that I have not heard about the movie could mean that the movie was a failure at the box office.

“Anokhi Ada” to me was a movie of 1970s starring Jeetendra and Vinod Khanna, but I came to know that there was another movie of this name in 1948 too. Why did these oldtimers choose the same name as a new movie and then had some boring music in that- this is what I used to think in 1970s.
