Today’s song is from the eminently obscure film Sanskar-1958.

What is the meaning of ‘Sanskar’ in English ? There is no single exact word for it. You can roughly say” building Values”. Sanskar is an important part of Indian culture, irrespective of religion. For example, our sanskar is ‘to touch the feet of our elders’. It is prevalent in Hindus, Sikhs, Christians, Boudhs, Jains etc.etc. in India. Those who are india’s original residents follow these customs, as Sanskars are not connected to any religion. These are the ways of life in India. These are handed down, rather taught from generations to next generations. Sanskars are always positive and a guide to a happier life.

Today 14th November is celebrated as ‘children’s day’ in our country. It is also the birthday of our first Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. He was very fond of children. While earlier every 14th November was celebrated being the birthday of Jawaharlal Nehru it was in 1954 that it was first time celebrated as ‘children’s day’ too. I was looking for a song for this occasion and I thought of this song which I like very much. It is from the movie “Hum Bachche Hindustaan Ke-1984”. In 1983-1985 I was staying at Akola with my grandparents. I was studying at Akola for my Std. 11th -12th. There we had a group of friends that also doubled as our cricket playing group. We used to watch ‘Chitrahaar’ on the ‘black and white-TV’ at the home of one of our friends home who was lucky to have TV at his home those days. 🙂

Today’s song is from the film Sakshi Gopal-1957.

Wednesday, 28th August 2024 was a very sad day for me. On this day, I learnt about the sad demise of Shri Harish Raghuwanshi ji from Surat. He was one of the most well known Hindi and Gujarati film Historians in India. He had a very large circle of admirers and friends all over India, but he hardly moved out of Surat, as far as I know.
