Sandhya Mukherjee – a voice that is comparatively heard less frequently on the Hindi film screen, is a big name in the world of Bangla music and Bangla film music. In fact her association with Hemant Kumar as a duet singer, is almost as legendary as the on screen pair of Uttam Kumar and Suchitra Sen. Majority of the duets of these two actors in Bangla cinema, have been playback sung by these two singers.
Greetings to Sandhya ji on her 83rd birthday (4th october).

There is an interesting trivia about the logo of the New Theatres film company. Encircling the image of the elephant with a raised trunk, there are two phrases, one in English and one in Bangla. The English phrase in the upper half of the circle records the name of the company – ‘The New Theatres Limited’. The Bangla phrase in the lower half of the circle says – ‘Jivatang Jyotiretu Chhayam’ which translates to ‘Light Infusing Shadows with Life’. I have not seen many logos of some of the earlier production companies, but from the later decades, I do not recall a logo which carries any specific message. It is possible this is a unique trivia in the history of Indian cinema.

Chaandni raaten – Song no. 12
————————————–
chaand ek bewaa ki choodi ki tarah toota huaa
har sitaara besahaaraa soch mein dooba huaa
gham ke baadal ek janaaze ki tarah thehre huye
hichkiyon ke saaz par kehtaa hai dil rotaa huaa
Thus began a classic Talat Mahmood song ‘koyi nahin mera iss duniya mein’ from the movie ‘Daag’.

An icon that stands the tallest on the horizon of the Hindi film landscape. And a persona whose influence spans more than six decades of the history of this medium – a medium that itself is just over eight decades young now.
Dharam Devdutt Pishorimal Anand – born this day in Shakargarh, district Gurdaspur. The year – is irrelevant. With a persona like Dev Sb, the length of years behind was as meaningless as the number of years ahead of him were meaningful. The zest for life and the energy to be – the age and years did not matter. The only thing that mattered was the young-ness of the mind that simply refused to be afraid of the towering Time that overcomes all. Not that he professed any eternal life. And neither did he survive the scythe of reaper of time. But the time and the years that he lived and breathed, there was always another horizon to reach, always another mountain to scale. And the mantra for life simply was – young-ness of the mind.
