It is now more than one year since I began scouting for rare songs – especially songs from films released during the 1940s (1941-1950). My definition of rare songs is limited to those songs which have not been uploaded on video websites like YT. Among such songs, I make a further selection in that I generally prefer to write articles with those songs which sound melodious to my ears and have good lyrics.

It is a privilege for those who were associated with India’s first talkie ‘Alam Ara’ (1931). Whenever the definitive history of Indian film industry is discussed, the names of Ardeshir Irani, Master Vitthal, Zubeida, Prithviraj Kapoor, W M Khan would surely find place in it. However, there were some lesser known persons associated with the first talkie. Sarvottam Badami was one of the lesser known persons who was associated with the first talkie as assistant to Ardeshir Irani in sound recording. I found his filmy career interesting.

I joined the Blog sometime in July 2011 and I have completed 5 years of my association with the Blog. How the wheel of time passes so quickly!  Atul ji, the founder of this Blog, must have also felt the same when he realised that this Blog would be completing its 3000th day today (4th October 2016).

Congratulations to Atul ji and his bandwagon for reaching another milestone of running this Blog for 3000 days. I had said in my couple of earlier write-ups as well as in the comments section in the Blog that it is not an easy task to run a Blog with a commitment to discuss at least one song per day.  It is most gratifying to note during my 5 years of association with the Blog that Atul ji has almost adhered to that commitment. If one goes by the daily average of the postings of the songs, the Blog has attained over 4 songs per day.  This is a unique Blog in the sense that it has not remained ‘dormant’ even for a day!
