Janmashtami is a festival that is celebrated all over the country by all hindu communities. It signifies the birth of Lord Krishna in the Jail where Devaki was imprisoned. The story is that after he was born Vasudeva transports him to Gokul to the home of Yashoda. Hence the next day, viz. the day after Janmashtami is celebrated as Gokulashtami with his life in Gokul being re-enacted as Dahi Handi. As Yashoda was the one who brought him up, she is often regarded as the Maiyya of Krishna. For me the festival entails having sweets being fried, and then stored in the house for me to eat in “krishna-style” for the next few days. 😀

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.
