In my school days, I had read about many heroic events of Indian history like Maharana Pratap viz. Emperor Akbar, Shivaji vs Aurangzeb, Rani Laxmibai vs. British East India Company etc. All the opponents were villains to me and I hated them for their wrong doings.

A few days back, my wife lamented that our daughter takes her for granted and does not take her suggestions seriously(mujhe ghar ki murgi samajhti hai). What is new about it, I thought to myself, because my wife too takes me for granted. :). And in turn, both of us often underestimate our daughter. The three of us take our pets for granted and the pets return the favour by taking us for granted. 🙂

The first solo song that Kishore Kumar sang in his playback career was for Dev Anand in the movie “Ziddi” (1948) under the music direction of Khemchand Prakash. Then S D Burman, his mentor used his good offices to get Kishore Kumar to give plaback for Raj Kapoor in “Pyaar” (1950). But from that time onwards, Kishore Kumar sang for himself or for Dev Anand, in case it was a Dev Anand movie with S D Burman’s music direction. I can think of one more exception during 1950s though where Kishore Kumar sang for someone other than himself or Dev Anand. It was the iconic song Din hai suhaana aaj pahli taarikh hai(Pahli taarikh) (1954) which was picturised on Raja Nene.

Greetings and best wishes to all readers for the festival of Raksha Bandhan today.
This song is from the 1985 film ‘Ghar Dwaar’. The film is produced by Mohan ji Prasad and SK Jain, and is directed by Kalptaru. The star cast of this film is impressive and includes Shriram Lagoo, Tanuja, Sachin, Raj Kiran, Shoma Anand, Kadar Khan, Ashok Saraf, Ashalata etc. The music for this film is composed by Chitragupt. Checking through the available articles on Chitragupt ji, he passed away in 1991. This film could well be one of the last films that he composed for. I am unable to locate the name of the lyricist, and would request other knowledgeable readers to please add this information.
