#The Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #

The song in this post is going to give a big surprise to everyone. I am sure about that. Even I was surprised when I listened to it for this post. Though I have presented a song from this movie in the past but I was not aware about this song. After listening to this song it sounds familiar but I have no idea why.

This song is from an un-released movie ‘Bahaadur Jiskaa Naam’ from the decade of 1970s. As per information given in Hindi Film Geet Kosh Vol-IV (1971-1980) this movie was directed by K.A. Narayan for ‘Rangamma Films’. The cast of this movie is mentioned as Ashok Kumar, Pran, Prem Nath, I.S. Johar and Vidya Sinha. Geet Kosh lists four songs from this movie leaving space for other songs that would have been recorded for this movie but which are not known or may be these were not released on records.

#1300th Post# Chal Saathhee chal… chal saathhee chal …

In my previous post here, I have described how I discovered this great musical blog and how I become associated with it first as a visitor and subsequently as a lyrics contributor. I had developed some inclination (flair?) for writing from my younger days. My first article was published in a Marathi newspaper ‘Dainik Shivshakti’ published from Akola (Maharashtra). My article was about cricket where I had expressed my views about the dropping of Chetan Chauhan from the Indian cricket Team of 1980-1981.

After starting as a lyrics contributor I became a frequent visitor on the blog. I had discovered a vast treasure trove of Hindi Music here. Moreover I was also reading the detailed posts of senior contributors on this blog that enriching my knowledge of Hindi Film Music of the golden years of Hindi Cinema.

As the nation is celebrating 77th Republic Day on 26th January, 2026, I have found yet another patriotic song by Mohammed Rafi sahab. I had zeroed in on another song, the sound quality was not so good. Suddenly this song came up on the feed, as a newly found song. I have checked; it is available on youtube for many years.

Another special thing is that it is a non-film song, written by Rajinder Krishan. Music directors name and the Album name is missing from the list of Rafi song as well as on the links available on youtube.
