Hullo Atuldom
Back after a gap of around one & half months.
Have been so active, doing various other activities, that for the first time, since 2009 (when I discovered the blog) and 2012 (when my first post appeared on the blog), I missed a few milestones (the 17,700th post) on the day it was posted. Also missed a post by Sudhir ji, which featured a song which I simply love to see “Wo Ladki Hai Kahaan“.
Also I missed writing posts on a few occasions for which I had drafts ready in my mind, but could not get down to writing or typing them. Occasions like the Hindu New Year (call them by any name- Ugadi, Vishu, Baishakhi, Cheti Chand etc.), birthdates and anniversaries of a few favourite celebs (Sachin Tendulkar, Rishi Kapoor, Irfan Khan, etc). Of course, there were posts on these special dates, just that I have been catching up on them over the last few days.
This last month and half, I have been attending a few weddings and landmark birthdays of my brothers & beloved Aunty (‘Kaaki‘ sounds more personal than Aunty). That meant hurried trips to Kerala & Mumbai (twice), and three days in Chennai. I managed to meet Guru ji on my first trip to Mumbai, but could spend only an hour with him. And saw he was preparing for his book ‘Forgotten Artists of Early Cinema and The Same name Confusion’ release. Feel so proud that I know him.
Getting to the purpose of this post- 3rd May is a special date in the annals of Indian Film Industry. It was on this date, in the year 1913, that Dadasaheb Phalke’s ‘Raja Harishchandra’, the first full length feature film produced in India, was premiered at Coronation Theater in Bombay. (The first ever film, projected moving pictures, was presented by the Lumiere Brothers in December 1895 in Paris, France).
Starting from that screening of the silent film ‘Raja Harishchandra’ till today, it is 110 years. We have had hundreds & thousands films made in almost all the Indian languages possible. There have been instances of films borrowing story ideas from our mythologies, folklore etc. Stories of India’s freedom struggle, biographies of leaders who were at the forefront at that time. The films made in India have converted novels, books into moving images that have left a permanent imprint in the minds of the enthralled fans. The list of ideas on which films are based are as varied as the framework of our country.
I have never felt the need to see films made in any other country, never had time to discover anything else. Of course, there have been a few English films that have crept into my list of films seen in my lifetime, these may add up to 15/20. But, largely, I have relished films made in Hindi, Malayalam, Tamil, Marathi, Telugu etc. In the days when Doordarshan was the sole home-entertainment source, I have even seen films in Gujarati, Bengali & Punjabi.
I know for sure that films were initially made in Lahore, Calcutta, Madras, Bombay, Kolhapur, Poona etc. Post 1947, Bombay, Madras & Calcutta (don’t know about Kolhapur & Poona) were the movie making centres with most South Indian language films being made in Madras. I am not sure about when Kerala, Andhra Pradesh & Karnataka and other states set up their own film cities. (I am expecting answers to all my doubts from the knowledgeable Atulites).
Just as story-ideas were exchanged between the films of all the languages, actors from one region were seen in films of other regions. That trend still continues.
Similarly, there has been a trend of bilinguals & trilinguals (movies made in two or three languages simultaneously) that is accepted by the audiences. And finally there are dubbed versions of popular films too. Even, this system has not been given up, and so we have ‘KGF’ (essentially a Kannada film), ‘RRR’ (Telugu), ‘Bombay’ (Tamil), ‘Roja’ (Tamil) being brought to the notice of the Hindi audiences by dubbing them. I would love to add instances of films from other languages too , but I am ignorant of these. I know for sure that ‘English Vinglish’, ‘Dil Se’, ‘PK’ have been dubbed into south Indian languages.
To celebrate the birthday of the Indian Film Industry I have chosen a song from the film ‘Doli Saja ke Rakhna’ (1998). This is Priyadarshan remaking Fazil’s (who normally made movies in Tamil and Malayalam) ‘Aniyathi Pravu’ (which directly translates as ‘Younger Sister Dove’). ‘Aniyathi Praavu’ was remade as ‘Premisthunnanu’ in Telugu, ‘Kadhalukku Mariyadhai’ in Tamil & ‘Preethigagi’ in Kannada. This is what made me feel ‘DSKR’ was an eligible option to celebrate the Indian Film Industry. It has Anupam Kher, Moushumi Chatterjee, Aruna Irani, Paresh Rawal, Mohnish Behl, Tej Sapru, Ninad Kamat, Suresh Menon, Umesh Shukla playing the family and friends to Akshaye Khanna and Jyothika. Amrish Puri had a special appearance in this film. Malayalam actor Innocent Vareed Thekkethala, known mononymously as Innocent, also made his Hindi debut in this film.
‘DSKR’ is also the debut film of Jyothika who was born in Mumbai in 1978. She starred in many South Indian films and became very popular too.
I would like to put in a few words about Innocent. He was a versatile actor who graced the Malayalam screen from 1972 and was seen playing characters that mostly brought a smile on the viewers face. He made an excellent foil, co-actor to all his co-stars and his pairing with KPAC Lalitha (who passed away in 2022) was well-received. His career of close to 700 films featured Tamil & Kannada films too. There were two Hindi films also, both made by Priyadarshan. He was also a writer, film producer and a politician. Innocent, who was born on 28th February 1948 died recently, on 26th March at the age of 75. He was a cancer survivor who took ill on 3rd March and died three weeks later. We can see him in today’s song in the uniform of an Army Colonel.
Today’s song is sung by Babul Supriyo & Srinivas. (Again meeting of artists from two regions). The song is composed by AR Rehman and written by Mehboob Kotwal (who is always credited as Mehboob).

ये खोया खोया रहता है
ये दिन में सोया सोया रहता है
ये रातों में उठ उठ के यही गाता है

तर्रम पम तर्रम पम तर्रम्म पम्म
चलो उसको ढूँढेंगे हम
इतनी हसीनों में
छुपी इक ऐसी हसीना है

Blog Day : |
4154 | Post No. : | 15321 |
As I have said in one of my recent posts, whenever I read something inspiring, be it a poem or an article, it inspires me to write something of my own thoughts. Nowadays there is less and less readable material forthcoming from the print media. The blog and its posts are sometimes savior’s for the intellect. One such article was the post by Sudhir Sir – “Gandhi Tere Desh Mein Ye Kaisa Atyachaar“, on the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi. It appeared quite late in the night, but as I read it completely, it was a thoroughly readable and thought provoking post. At least I found it thought provoking and for the next few days the matters and the quotes from the Mahatma’s books, and my own thought relating to them were reverberating in my mind. I wrote a lengthy comment on the post which I am reproducing here.
Sir,
Congratulations on writing such an extensive, studied article on Mahatma Gandhi and his philosophies. Reading it, I realised I haven’t read any of his books. Being a Kitaabi keeda from childhood hasn’t helped me reach out to any of Mahatma’s books. Where ever I have found a bookshelf and a rack of books I tend to go through the titles and authors. In my defence, I can only say that non-fiction is not my strong case. Nevertheless, it is sad and tragic that the works of such great thinking minds are nowhere to be found in present day libraries.
The para’s you quote from his writings, about non-violence and cowardice; I dare say are the sort of philosophy which is popular as well as non-popular, depending on disparities in viewpoints.
I will quote an incident to explain what I mean. This happened in friends household. The son was playing football with his friends. A few other boys from the neighborhood, came up to one of the boy and started beating him over some fight or rivalry. All the friends including my friend’s son ran away from there. The boy came home and told the parents about this. This was just a school going kid. The father said, how can you do this, being a punjab da puttar, how could you not help your friend. The son said, if tried to help him than they will start hitting me too. Logic here, self-preservation not cowardice, the mother opined.
In the light of the above incident, the Mahatma’s point is first one will try to stop the violence by non-violence. But avoiding the situation altogether is not non- violence, but cowardice. As opposed to valour. The will to defend the one in difficult situation. Not just defend, but save. This is valour, opposite of cowardice.
But this is an era of “tamashbeen”. A vast majority of public now prefers to just be a bystander and watch, rather than doing anything to stop the violence. Which neither here, nor there. This is a side kick of mass media. We are used to watching violence and it doesn’t make us flinch. A humans natural tendency to reject violence is gone. We watch it like it is a natural movie watching experience.
I believe, big cities are little better, with regards to violence of any kind. For the disruption is bigger and inconvenient. Crowd will be of various dispositions in any urban setting, someone will be a local and saner than others. Hopefully.
One more point, I would make here is about the “decay” of creation. The decay in creation is caused by impurities. The very nature of creation in mortal. What has started will end, whatever has lived will die. A natural death. Like some civilisation of the past died, due to natural calamities and became a step for newer civilisation to develop.
It is the truth which is pure. The lies added to it make it impure, and cause decadence. The civilisations that decay and then die of decadence, rot. No new civilisation can emerge from such decayed rot.
So, we as humans, the superior among all creation, have a duty to preserve this purity in ourselves.
Regards.
I realize that the comment is just one dimensional, and could not carry the total sum of my impressions on the article. I have said that non-fiction is not my strong case, and here I am, daily trying my hand at writing non-fiction :).
Now I simply must quote this from the article :
It goes to establish that Gandhi was no ordinary soul, and such souls appear on this planet quite rarely. Albert Einstein has so beautifully summed it up in his tribute – “Generations to come will scarce believe that such a one as this ever in flesh and blood walked upon this earth”.
Of course I have read this quote before and this is not fiction. Another important thing he highlighted was about the discourse around ‘the relevance of the Mahatma today’. And films like “Lage Raho Munna Bhai” were just a final stone dropped in the (already dry) pond, through the popular film media, to explain to the second generation Indians born after the end of the Gandhian era, that over dose of Gandhian philosophy like any other philosophy is also capable of creating a ‘chemical locha’ in the mental equilibrium.
May be the decay of this great civilization of homo-sapiens has started. The very nature of creation is temporary; all that exists will be destroyed one day. The Universe may be infinite, but the only definite thing here is death. So be it, whether it is the death of a philosophy, a society or a world. The very wisdom of this species is in danger of being homogenized with its earlier extinct versions.
If one really gives deep thought about the situation the human race is facing, it feels as if the ‘Qayamat’ is truly underway. The life we are living is like a tight rope walk of ‘pul-e-siraat‘. One wrong step and below is hellfire. It’s that difficult to keep to the truth, obey the truth and keep faith in the truth.
But then there is a superior power, the creator, the sustainer and the nourisher of all that exists. As Allama Iqbal said :
mudda’ee laakh buraa chaahe to kya hota hai
wohi hota hai jo manzoor-e-khuda hotaa hai
So I have here a very positive kind of feel good song written by Javed Akhtar from ‘Dil Chahta Hai’ (2001). The singer is Srinivas and composers are Shankar-Ehsan-Loy. Yeah, the name of composers has a message in it. I can try and translate the middle one i.e. ‘Ehsan’.
We all are familiar with word ‘ehsaan‘ in songs like “Ehsaan Mere Dil Pe Tumhaara Hai Dosto” and “Ehsaan Tera Hoga Mujh Par“. The word ‘ehsan’ is a related word, with a change in meaning. It means the ‘beauty of good conduct’. Or rather the beauty of best behavior.
The song I am presenting has a dream like quality with Dimple in white, Akshaye Kumar in white, and a white canvas. The portrait of Dimple gradually develops on the canvas, while the Akshaye is dreaming on of pure water streams, dipping his hand into the stream, full moon, in a dreamy halo of light and roshni. In this moon light, all the colours are amalgamated to make a portrait, in which the fragrances are visibly mingling. Moon, stream, clouds, song, rain and butterflies are all in favour – in favour of the flavor of love, that is created of such different matter. Some physical and some metaphorical matter, to make the billions and trillions of DNA that comprise this universe.
