#The Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
—————————————————————————

Today 24th October 2025 is the fourteenth remembrance day of the legendary singer Manna Dey ( Real name Prabodh Chandra Dey). He was born on 01.05.1919 and he passed away on 24.10.2013.

Music lovers here are already aware about him and much has already been written about his greatness and versatility as a singer, so I am not going to repeat it all here again. But I would definitely like to mention here that I am a big fan of his singing and I have always enjoyed and cherished listening to the songs sung by Manna Dey, whichever genre they are from – classical, semi-classical, sugam sangeet or qawwaalees etc. He has also sung many songs which fall under the category of philosophical songs and ‘songs with a message’.

Today I am presenting one such rare song here. This song is a rare song because it is from an un-released movie of the seventies. I don’t know how many of us have listened to this song. I came across this song around two-three years back and I had mentioned this while presenting another song from this same un-released movie here on the blog earlier.

Regulars on this blog are aware that I am a big fan of Qawwaalees from Hindi films (as well as non-film qawwaalees ). I am also a big fan of the famous Qawwaalee singer Jaani Babu Qawwaal. His voice is pure nostalgia for me. I love his singing and also the way he performed his qawwaalees on screen.

I am trying to present Qawwaalees sung by him whenever I get an opportunity to do so. Today I am presenting a song that must be considered rare because it is not mentioned in HFGK and its records were apparently not made. This song is only available in the movie. Despite its presence in the movie it has gone unnoticed because not many people may have watched the video or noticed that this song was not mentioned in HFGK..

Mukesh and his NFS – 05

Sometime back, I had written about Mukesh’s collaboration with composer Lachhiram Tomar. Here is the said post.

As detailed in the post a 33 second couplet as a background rendition on a female character was all that Mukesh sang for the composer in films. The rendition remains uncredited in the film.

I have already covered the composer and his works with Mukesh in the abovementioned post. As such, this post is being continued in my other series on NFS. Needless to say, the post has to be read in conjunction with my earlier post on Lachhiram.

Mukesh and his Composers – 43

I return with a second consecutive post on an artist who never scored for a full film as a music director.
But, unlike Vipin Mehra of the previous post, the composer in this post is very well known and continues to perform to this day.

I am using the terms music director, composer quite freely and for artists who never scored for full-fledged films. But then as we read this post, things will be clearer.

Today, we shall discuss composer/musician Kishore Desai’s association with Mukesh. I am spared the exercise of researching on Kishore Desai as Sadanand ji has not only written a well-researched and detailed post on his life and works but also met him in person.

#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
—————————————————————

‘Hans Ke Jiyo-1950’ (or 1941-1950) was an unreleased movie from the decades of 1941-1950. As per information available in Geet Kosh Vol-II (1941-1950) this movie was made in the decade of 1941-1950. But, there is very less information available about this movie. The name of the production banner for this movie is mentioned as D.M.G. Films. Director of this movie is not mentioned. Likewise, no information is available about the cast of this movie. However Geet Kosh lists seven songs for this movie with singer’s name for each song. Again the lyricist name for the individual songs is mentioned for two songs only which is Chhabi Kumar ‘Mast’, and rest songs have been left blank against the lyricist’s name. The singers list for this movie includes Sulochana Kadam, Sadashiv Gujar, Suman Purohit, and Vinod Kumar.
