A R Rahman – The Musician of 21st Century – 6
—————————————————————-

This is post number 06 in the series. As musicians go, ARR is a complete package. He is also much more than a musician, has proved to be media savvy as well as a successful businessperson. He is the first of Indian film music directors to own his music. Previously all film music was owned by films producers/distributors or the music companies, who released records/cassettes/discs etc. The same system prevails in the industry. Only ARR is one who is different. In this regard too ARR is a trend setter. Lata Mangeshkar could think of only royalty and here we have a 90’s kid on the block, who aimed to own the world, at least his portion of it.

hum mehnatkash iss duniya se
jab apna hissa mangenge
ik baag nahin, ek khet nahin
ham saari duniyaa maangenge

There may be others who are following the same path, I don’t know. His growth in all the above, has been exponential and blessed. Some of the singers introduced by ARR have also matured and achieved great heights in their singing career.

The song I am presenting this time is from the film ‘The Legend of Bhagat Singh’ (2002) which surfaced in the memory while doing the earlier post of the same song from the 1963 film ‘Shaheed Bhagat Singh’ – “Sarfaroshi Ki Tamanna Ab Hamaare Dil Mein Hai“.

Madhur Bhandarkar, the four-time National Film Award winner, is known to make films on some unusual issues. Some of his films’ titles like ‘Chandni Bar’ (2001), ‘Satta’ (2003), ‘Page-3’ (2005), ‘Corporate’ (2006), ‘Traffic Signal’ (2007), ‘Fashion’ (2008), ‘Heroine’ (2012), ‘Calendar Girls’ (2015) are indicative of the diverse and unusual subjects he has covered in his films. He does not think that his films are exposes but they show what is happening in society without passing value judgement. Usually, he makes films with one or two well-known actors. Rest of actors are usually from the theatre/TV background. Songs in his films are not a priority. Most of the issues he takes up in his film are Mumbai-based.

I am sitting to write a post to wish my favourite singer on turning an year older. The task is not easy. Because the blog has 2967 songs, from a possible 7874, leaving us with 4907 songs to choose from. So, the difficulty is of one-too-many to choose from. The task is further complicated when I have zeroed in on atleast 10 songs in the last few hours. I want to write about each and everyone of them.

‘Pehli Baar’ (First Time) is a program that is aired on a channel of the DTH service that I am subscribed to. It gives background about how some celebrities met or got together for the first time ever. Of course the incidents, and content in that program is possibly stuff that many of us have read over the years over-and-over again, and also in all the Filmfares, Screen (the magazines of yesteryear), Star & Style, Stardust, Cine Blitz etc. that were available in all the circulating libraries of those times. Stories like how Nargis had batter in her hand when she opened the door for Raj Kapoor, how Balraj Sahni saw Johnny Walker mimicking actors as he sold tickets in Mumbai’s BEST buses etc.

A. R. Rehman – The musician of 21st century – 2
————————————————————–

64th Birthday of Kavita Krishnamurthy
——————————————————————

Once upon a time, in our office, the crowd was more interfering in each other’s lives. There would be judgmental comments about each other, if someone works very hard, there was gossip about them. If someone is not very hard working there would be gossip and snide comments about them. 90’s and early 2000’s was a time when all had more time to bother about other people. Interference is one way to look at it. We were in one corner of Mumbai, and there were very few people who travelled long distances to arrive, and most of us were from nearby areas. There was less of anonymity or disregard of big city atmosphere. Come to think of it, most of us used to think of the office as a second home. As the working day would be full of work, talking to people and friends. We were more open to all sort of talk, discussions and even gossip. The office building would be like a small village, where everyone knew everything about everyone. That was an atmosphere, where, every new day was a new beginning. And come weekend, we would be full of plans for the next week. On Monday, we will do this or start on that work.

23rd January 2022

Today 23rd January ’22 is the one hundred and twenty-fifth birth anniversary (born on 23rd Janunary, 1897) of our great leader Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose. On this occasion as a tribute to Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose we listen a song from the recent movie ‘Gumnaami’ (2019).

I watched this movie on OTT platform last week and would like to mention here or rather I would like to request that every Indian should watch this movie. I think this movie was made in Bangla and Hindi language. The version available on OTT is the Bangla version. But major part is in Hindi and English so anybody can easily understand this movie.

The movie is based on the Mukherjee commission findings and the research movement taken by Mission Netaji and the later events.
