Zulfon ke saaye
Rukh pe giraaye
Shaidaayi mere
Dil ko banaaye
Shabnam ke moti
Pal pal pirotaa hai
Kya karun haay
Kuchh kuchh hotaa hai

The above is the mukhda first written for this song Tum paas aaye yoon muskuraaye ), which is the only song which is so far posted in the blog of the film “Kuch Kuch Hota Hai(1998)”. The lyricist Sameer Anjaan wrote this mukhda first, which was rejected by Karan Johar and then he rewrote it as ‘tum paas aaye yoon mukuraaye” used for the song.

Without meaning to or searching for them, I have now seen lengthy interviews of two celebrities connected with this film. I even saw 15-minute-long climax scene of this film. So much help from youtube I never expected, but glad that it did.

We normally have a feeling of nostalgia towards the films we watched in our youth. We always love their music, their artists and the general experience we watched while seeing those films in the cinema halls of yore. Sometimes, in newer films, we see tributes being paid to them. Occasionally, we find the tributes a bit insipid leaving us uninspired. However, once in a while, a song makes you really feel good and enjoy it while giving you a feeling of nostalgia. Today’s song is one such song.

Today, December 25, 2025, is the 10th Remembrance Day of Sadhana, the fashion icon of Hindi cinema in the 1960s. She was also called the ‘mystery girl’ because she acted in three mystery genre of films one after another. In her short filmy career of about 15 years, she had a high success ratio in terms of hit films. She worked with top directors like Bimal Roy, Raj Khosla, Yash Chopra, Hrishikesh Mukherjee and H S Rawail. Her co-stars included Dev Anand, Shammi Kapoor, Rajendra Kumar, Raj Kapoor, Raj Kumar, Sunil Dutt, Rajesh Khanna and Dharmendra. Sadhana came and conquered the Hindi film industry in the 1960s and by the end of 1970s, she virtually vanished from the film industry.

A R Rahman – The Musician of 21st Century – 9

This is a group song from the film ‘Saathiya” (2002), written by Gulzar. The singers are Richa Sharma, Mahalakshmi Iyer and Vaishali Shoma. Recently another song from this film is posted as post no. 7 of the series.

The lyrics of “Chhalka chhalka re” were waiting in drafts for some days now. But I thought will post the wedding songs later, exactly what is the reason for the other song going before this is the Sonu Nigam factor and the natural scenery plus the colourful. Also, once the words registered, they just had to be dissected for what they said and meant.

The star cast here is Rani Mukherji, Vivek Oberoi, Tanuja, Satish Shah, Sharat Saxena, Swaroop Sampat, Virendra Saxena, Sandhya Mridul etc. Most of these actors are visible in the song, except for Satish Shah. Rani Mukherji’s cousin is getting married, and Vivek Oberoi is part of the baraat as the groom’s friend.

This film was the Hindi remake of the hit Tamil film “Alaipayuthey” (2000), directed by Mani Ratnam. All A.R. Rahman compositions from the original film were reused in this film, except for “Naina Milaay Ke” and “Mainda Yaar Mila De Saaiyan”, which were new compositions.

The bride’s emotions in the tears flowing from her eyes, are stated as ‘Chhalka Chhalka re kalsi ka paani”. Different way of expression, as are some other terms in the song.

In the middle of the song, in between the playful antics between the bridal party and groom’s friends, Vivek Oberoi is trying to find out Rani Mukherji’s name. He bumps into the father and asks him for Rani’s name. The father says “Ladke, baaraat mein aaye ho warna tumko paraat mein daal ke goondh detaa”. I have never heard such threats.

Years ago, when my son was young, once he watched me making the dough. He was standing beside me watching with fascination. I still remember him saying “aata akela hogayaa”. I said “akelaa nahin ek ho gayaa”. Different way of seeing and understanding. The flour is, we don’t know comes from which wheat, from which field and here it comes to us in the flour form. We mix it with water, and it becomes one, several lakh different seeds. Only to get separated / divided and cooked in different chapatis.

Great, this Gulzariology is adversely affecting me, 😊.

It is another one of critically acclaimed songs by A. R. Rehman.

Hullo Atuldom

“Dosti Dushmani” (release date 31st October 1986) was directed and produced by T. Rama Rao. It had the team of Anand Bakshi- Laxmikant- Pyarelal giving us five songs that had Mohammad Aziz, Suresh Wadkar, Shailendra Singh, Kavita Krishnamurthy, S. Janaki & S.P. Balasubramaniam as playback singers.

Jeetendra, Rishi Kapoor & Rajnikanth played fast-friends (soulmates) with Pran & Sowcar Janaki, who are the biological parents of Jeetendra (in the film), being the anchors in the life of the friends. Bhanupriya, Kimi Katkar & Poonam Ddhillon were the ladies in the lives of the heroes. Amrish Puri, Shakti Kapoor, Kadar Khan, Asrani, Shafi Inamdaar & Gurbachan form the supporting cast.

This film was a remake of the Telugu film “Mugguru Mithrulu” (1985). The Telugu film was also remade in Kannada as “Brahma Vishnu Maheshwara” (1988).

I have seen the film, in parts, whenever it shows on some satellite television channel. I have seen that Jeetendra is forced into a fake marriage with Bhanupriya to shield Poonam Dhillon, who is Rajnikanth’s wife, from defamation or some such thing. In this fake marriage, Rishi Kapoor, Pran & Sowcar Janaki are the co-conspirators. Then there is an angle of Kimi Katkar, who has an axe to grind against Amrish Puri, falling in love with Rishi Kapoor. Plus, we come to know that Bhanupriya & Rajnikanth are siblings & Amrish Puri is their father who had abandoned the family at the start of the film. Additionally, Rajnikanth had got separated from his family & was fostered by Pran. What an uncomplicated masala film!!!!

This film is making it’s debut on the occasion of the 75th birthday of actor Rajnikanth who has a cult, God-like status among his fans particularly in South India. He has acted in films of all four South Indian languages though the number of Malayalam films is only one or two. His name appears in the credits of a Bengali film too, as ‘Guest Appearance’. He has acted in around 25/26 Hindi films. He has also produced & wrote screenplay for a few films (learnt this today)

Rajinikanth was born as Shivaji Rao Gaikwad on 12 December 1950, in a Marathi family, in Bangalore, Mysore State (present day Karnataka). His mother was a homemaker and his father, Ramoji Rao Gaekwad, was a police constable. He was the youngest of four siblings; he has two older brothers & a sister.

A fact about his early life, which is not well – known (or I should say I learnt today) is that his brother enrolled him at the Ramakrishna Math. Here, he was taught Vedas, tradition & history and also began acting in plays at the Math. His aspiration towards theatre grew at the Mathh and was once given an opportunity to enact the role of Ekalavya’s friend from the Hindu epic Mahabharata. His performance in the play received praise from the Kannada poet D. R. Bendre.

Upon completion of his school education, Rajinikanth took up several jobs including that of a coolie, before getting a job in the Bangalore Transport Service as a bus conductor. He continued to take part in plays after the Kannada playwright Topi Muniappa offered him a chance to act in one of his mythological plays. He decided to take up an acting course in the newly formed Madras Film Institute after coming across an advertisement. During his stay at the institute, he was noticed by the Tamil film director K. Balachander. Balachander provided Rajinikanth with his stage name to avoid confusion with fellow actor Sivaji Ganesan. The director advised Rajnikanth to learn to speak Tamil, a recommendation that he quickly followed. Although he can read the language, he cannot write in it. (Me too, I can read the language with some difficulty but not write it. I think I am qualified to be Rajni Saar’s fan. 🙂 )

Rajinikanth played supporting and “villainous” roles in most of the films released during the initial years of his career with lead roles which were few & far-between. His first film as one of the main leads, in Tamil came in 1978 in a remake of ‘Amar Akbar Anthony’. He first played a positive character in Telugu in 1977. I am unable to find out which was his first film as a positive lead in Kannada. His Hindi debut came in 1983 with ‘Andhaa kanoon’.
Rajnikanth is married to Latha Rangachari & has two daughters – Aishwarya & Soundarya- both of whom are connected with the film industry. Aishwarya Rajnikanth is a film director & playback singer while Soundarya is a film producer/ director along with being a graphic designer. Soundarya was the first woman director to direct Rajnikanth in ‘Kochadaiiyaan’ (2014).

The Government of India honoured him with the Padma Bhushan in 2000 and the Padma Vibhushan in 2016. He was awarded the Dadasaheb Phalke Award in 2019, though he has won only one Filmfare award for best actor in 1984 for a Tamil film, IFFI (International Film Festival of India) conferred on him the Satyajit Ray Lifetime Achievement Award this year- 2025.

Wish you a very Happy Birthday Rajnisaar (‘Thalaiva’ which translates as ‘leader’ but also used to mean ‘BOSS’). May you continue to entertain your fans. Stay Healthy. 🙂

This is the title song of Ham dil de chuke sanam(1999), the second musical triumph of Sanjay Leela Bhansali. This movie and songs were a runaway hit. I have written as many as 4 posts out of 6 songs posted in the blog.

Today’s song is from the film Hanste Ansoo-1950.

Film Hanste Aansoo-1950 was produced and directed by K.B.Lall (born in 1911 at Meerut-U.P. Known for films like Lal Haveli-1944, Lal Dupatta-1948 and Hanste Aansoo-1950 etc. Died on 25-8-1975. He wrote the story as well as the screenplay. Lyricists were Shewan Rizvi and Majrooh Sultanpuri. Music was by Ghulam Mohammad. The cast of the film included Madhubala (17 years), Motilal (40 Years), Gope, Manorama, Jankidas, Mirza Musharraf etc.

The film, as such, though an ordinary one, was very successful. One of the main reasons for its success was that it was the FIRST Hindi film to be awarded an “A ” certifictae by the film Censor. The Censor also passed several (some of them were ridiculous) remarks on the film in general.

Rafi Sahab’s Legendary Associations – 15

Back in 2021, I had started this ambitious series for posts to highlight the significant associations in Rafi Sahab’s career. I knew that very few and far between, songs of the major influencers on Rafi Sahab’s singing, were remaining to be posted in the blog, even in 2021.

Most of these stalwarts were old timers, like Naushad, S. D. Burman, Shankar-Jaikishan, Chitragupt, Ravi and C. Ramchandra etc. A few of them of them were more contemporary, like R. D. Burman and Laxmikant-Pyarelal, who were with him. They were the latest beneficiaries of Rafi magic, who were ‘faizyafta” till the end, in 1980. Both started in 1966-67 and continued. Even Kalyanji-Anandji was composing songs for Rafi sahab till the end of 70’s. Madan Mohan and Ravi did it throughout his career and till “Laila Majnu” in 1976, and was the only one who started in 50’s and ended and 70’s, apart from Naushad.
