The first social drama TV serial (also called soap operas) on Doordarshan was ‘Humlog’ (1984). The huge success of this TV serial prompted other producers to come out with soap operas which needed to be telecasted only on Doordarshan as no private TV channels were in operation at that time. They had to find the free slots on Doordarshan which became difficult as years passed. Doordarshan generally accepted the TV serials ranging from 13, 26 and at most 52 episodes with few exceptions. The restriction of the number of episodes meant that more number of TV Serial makers could be accommodated apart from ensuring the TV serials were not unnecessarily stretched at the cost of their qualitative contents.

Hullo Atuldom

This post of mine is one of those where I love to combine two celebrities/artistes. The two, who are the central to today’s post, have a sizable amount of work to show for their long innings in the film industry. There are a lot of songs of the actress yet to be posted as also around 1574 out of 4846 of the singer. After a lot of rummaging I found something that is appropriate for today.

Anand Bakshi (21st July 1930-30th March 2002) whose birthname was Bakshi Anand Prakash Vaid, was a poet, first and foremost. Writing poetry was his hobby from a young age. He used to write occasionally, even after he joined the navy. He used his songs & lyrics in local programmes related to his troop. He worked for many years in the navy and simultaneously tried to market his songs in the Mumbai film world.

There are few write-ups that I had left unfinished before the ‘gang-out’ happened. They remained unfinished and so got delayed. Today’s post is one such delayed post which was about ‘summer vacations in my childhood days’ and memory of one such movie watched during one summer vacation.

The vacations are over this year and I guess that schools have re-opened everywhere, except a few states where vacations have been extended due to severe heat conditions that still exist.

It’s been a while since I wrote an article for this blog (a long while – the last thing I wrote was “Ae Watan Ae Watan” in 2019). This week at Arunji’s home (2 June 2023), Sudhir ji encouraged me to write again, following in the footsteps of my mother who has been contributing for years. The conversations that day were incredibly stimulating, particularly the appreciation expressed for the blog among movie trivia enthusiasts. Eventually, I succumbed to the peer pressure. I returned home and embarked on a search for inspiration (aka a song) to write about. It was then that I realized Ameesha Patel’s birthday was approaching, and I immediately got to work.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No.123
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years ago (24 May 2013),seven songs from seven digfferent movies was covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Post No Song Title Name of the movie Remarks
8120 Ajeeb hai zindagi ki manzil Aakaash(1953) 6 songs covered out of 7 by now
8121 Beemaar e muhabbat ka itna sa fasaana hai Teesri Gali (1958) 4 songs covered out of 6 by now
8122 Sainyya haay haay haay tere gaaon mein Opera House (1961) 6 songs covered out of 7 by now
8123 Chale aana sanam uthhaaye kadam Dekha Pyaar Tumhaara(1963) 2 songs covered out of 6 by now
8124 Umr to pyaar karne ki aayi Zindagi(1976) Movie YIPPEED in the blog by now
8125 Chhodo ye nigaahon ka ishaara Inkaar(1977) Movie YIPPEED in the blog by now
8126 Kaanton se chhedte hain mere jigar ke chhaale Qeemat(1946) Movie YIPPEED in the blog by now

We observe that three movies (out of seven) whose songs were covered in the blog on this date ten years ago (on 24 May 2013) have since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with four unYIPPEED movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (24 May 2023). Out of these four unYIPPEED movies, two movies have only one song left to be covered but that last song could not be located, so these two movies cannot be taken up under BTYC. That leaves us with juste eligible for BTYC and whose remaining songs are available.
