‘Daasi’ (1981) was produced by Subhash Verma and was directed by Raj Khosla. The cast included Sanjeev Kumar, Rekha, Moushumi Chatterjee, Rakesh Roshan, Vikram, Paintal, Radhika Bartake, Sidharth Kak, Dhumal, Leela Mishra, Sundar, Narbada Shankar, Anita Advani etc.
The film was planned in 1976 based on a Hindi novel, ‘Mangala’ (1958) written by Anant Gopal Shevde. The main plank of the story in the novel is that Mangala goes through a deceitful arranged marriage with a blind singer, Pandit Sadananda. As a revenge, she rebels against the marriage by seducing her husband’s best friend and finally eloping with him. In the end, Mangala returns to her husband, Pandit Sadananda and becomes a vocalist under his tutelage. However, during the film’s planning stage, the producer and distributors felt that the plot was too bold and the audience may not accept it. Raj Khosla majorly tweaked the story of the novel for the film by making the husband’s friend (Rakesh Roshan) as her ex-lover and making him a grey character. It is Rakesh Roshan who tries to seduce Mangala. (Source: ‘Raj Khosla – The Authorised Biography (2025) by Amborish Roychoudhury, Anita Khosla and Uma Khosla).

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #

#Remembering the Divine Voice – Mohd Rafi#
————————————————————————
(Lyricist Kavi Pradeep-30)
——————————-
Regulars on this blog are aware that I am trying to bring as yet unrepresented Kavi Pradeep songs on the blog. Today I am presenting a song penned by Kavi Pradeep and sung by Mohd Rafi. This song is in fact a very familiar song to me that I have listened to many times, mostly on radio. But, I am surprised that this song is yet to be presented here. Today we are paying our tributes to the divine voice Mohd Rafi who passed away on this day in 1980. I take this opportunity to present this song sung by Mohd Rafi and written by Kavi Pradeep. Music for this song is composed by C. Arjun. This song is from the movie ‘Aankh Kaa Taaraa-1977’.
“Aankh Kaa Taaraa-1977” had Sachin, Bindiya, Om Shivpuri, Bindu, Ajit, Baby Pallavi, Dulari, Manisha, Nirupa Roy, Bharat Bhushan, Gajanan Jagirdar, Gufi, Mukri, Abhi Bhattacharya, Manhar Desai, Tun Tun, Preeti Ganguly, C.S. Dubey, Paintal, Baby Dimple Saigal and others.

It is a well known fact among regulars of this blog that the 5000th song of this song was the all time iconic qawwaali song Hamen to loot liya mil ke husn waalon ne from a B grade movie called “al Hilaal”(1958). This iconic qawwaali single handedly ensured that the name of “Al Hilal”(1958), instead of getting forgotten, would become immortal, even though the movie itself was nothing extraordinary..

Kamsune-Ansune Songs of Asha Bhosle – 3
—————————————–
Four years ago, our friend and a regular contributor to this blog Sadanand Kamath Ji, introduced a movie which was ready in 1975 but had to wait a full 13 years before finally getting a release in 1988. This movie was titled as “Aaj Raat Ko” in 1975 only for this to be changed to “Faisla” in 1988. The song presented by Kamath Ji was a gem by Mohd. Rafi Saab – Champa Khiledaar
Today, I’ll be presenting a beauty of a song from this movie. “Koi Toh Aaye Re” is sung by Asha Bhosle, penned by Majrooh Sultanpuri and composed by R D Burman.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No.79
————————————————————————————–
On this date ten years ago (14 April 2013), six songs from five different movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-
| Post No | Song Title | Name of the movie | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7895 | Husn kehta ja raha hai | Humaayun (1945) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
| 7896 | Main to odhoon gulaabi chundariya aaj | Humaayun (1945) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
| 7897 | Karte ho mujhse kitni muhobbat | Bekhabar (1965) | 6 songs covered out of 7 by now |
| 7898 | So jaa re so jaa mere raajdulaare | Zimbo (1958) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
| 7899 | Aate hain chale jaate hain | Yaadgaar(1984) | One song covered out of 7 by now |
| 7900 | Kaun meri preet ke pehle | Parineeta (1953) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
We observe that three movies (out of five) whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (14 April 2013) have since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with two movies that are unYIPPEED and therefore eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (14 April 2023).
The first unYIPPEED movie has already been taken up earlier in the day under BTYC.
The second movie that is eligible for BYTC today is “Yaadgaar”(1984).

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 49
————————————————————————————–
Welcome all to this post under ‘blog ten year challenge 2012-2022’.
Today’s(30 May 2022) song is from the movie ‘Jheel Ke Us Paar-1973’.
One song from this movie was presented on the blog on 30.05.2012 alongwith two more songs as listed below.
| Song Title | Name of the movie (year) | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| Chhod chale pyaari duniya ko | Bhaagam Bhaag(1956) | All songs covered |
| Maine dekha usne dekha pyaar ho gaya | Aaya Saawan Jhoom Ke(1969) | All songs covered |
| Baabul tere baagaan di main baabul | Jheel Ke Us Paar(1973) | 4 of 6 songs posted |
We can see from the above table that only three songs were posted ten years back on this day (still better than the current rate in the same month ten years later in 2022, which is one song per day 🙂 ).
The average of the month ‘May-2012’ was 4.12 songs per day which means a total of 128 songs were covered in the month of ‘May-2012’.
If we look the figures of songs posted in the month of ‘May’ since the inception of the blog we get the following figures.
| YEAR | May |
|---|---|
| 2008 | 0* (Blog started in the month of July’2008) |
| 2009 | 194 |
| 2010 | 64 |
| 2011 | 107 |
| 2012 | 128 |
| 2013 | 142 |
| 2014 | 75 |
| 2015 | 61 |
| 2016 | 35 |
| 2017 | 81 |
| 2018 | 67 |
| 2019 | 40 |
| 2020 | 60 |
| 2021 | 55 |
| 2022 | 33* |
We can see that the highest score for the month of ‘May’ is 194 in the year ‘2009’. And the lowest score of ‘May’ is 35 in the year ‘2016’. In the current year this month the figure stands at 33 so we can hope that it will either go past the lowest figure of ‘35’ or it may even end up in a ‘tie’ for the lowest score for the month. In these fourteen years ‘May’ has seen four centuries 194, 107, 128, & 142 in the year 2009, 2011, 2012 & 2013 respectively. There have been seven half centuries – 64, 75, 61, 81, 67, 60 & 55 in the years – 2010, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2020 & 2021 respectively.
