Today’s song is from an almost 90 year old film, Manzil-1936.

For a long time, I was searching for a song from this film, but none were available. Finally, I wrote to Shri Syed Jafer Shah ji and enquired if he has any song of this film, other than those already posted here. Promptly, he sent me today’s song- no.7 as per HFGK list. HFGK showed the singer’s name as Harimati, but the song sent by Jafer Bhai was sung by K.C.Dey. I pointed out this to him. He sent me the photo of the record No. 6764, which was tallying with the no. in HFGK. The film name was correct and the singer’s name was K.C.Dey. Obviously the song was correct. It seems that Harimati sang it in the film, but the record was in the voice of K.C.Dey. Or the HFGK had made a mistake in the singer’s name. Whatever it is, the song was correct as per the record number and details on it. So, no problem. Then our friend Sadanand ji Kamath uploaded it for me. Thanks to Jafer Bhai and Kamath ji.

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #
————————————————————————

(4th August’2024- Kishore Kumar’s 95th birth anniversary )

In this post I am presenting a song from the ‘1970’ movie ‘Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi’.
I was on the look out for a song sung by Kishore Kumar before 1970 that is not yet covered in the blog. I came across this lesser heard song, which I think could have been a well-known song. Maybe this movie was not as much successful and its songs were forgotten easily.

Today’s song is from the stunt film ‘Garma Garam’ (1957).

In Hindi films, many times the titles are given to the films just to attract the audience. Such films have absolutely no relevance to the core-story of the film. Sometimes there is an excess of certain emotions in the films. I had seen one Hindi film in which, by the end of the film all the major characters were shown as dead- including the lead pair. No wonder, the audience must have run away lest they would be the next in line !
