Today’s song is from the ‘1949’ movie ‘Saawan Bhaadon’.

I think I had never gone through the songs of this movie earlier. Our regular reader on the blog Shri Deepak Patwardhan ji has send me ‘farmaaish’ of this song (he had even offered to note down the lyrics of this song too, however I told him that I will take care of that  ). And this is the reason that I got a chance to present a song from this movie on the blog today.

Today’s song is from an obscure, not very well known film Sabyasachi-1948. The name of the film is rather strange and not many people will know what it means. In simple translation it means a person who is Ambidextrous or one who can use both hands with equal expertise. This was an adjective used famously in Mahabharat for Arjun. He was an extraordinary archer and he could do this with both his hands separately and simultaneously, with the same expertise.

Today’s song is a Non Film Song (NFS) – for a change ! It is sung by Pankaj Mallick. Lyricist is Fayyaz Hashmi and the song is set to music by Pankaj Mallick himself. It must be a song originally recorded before the Partition, because the Lyricist migrated to Pakistan after that in 1947.

Today I am presenting a song from the movie ‘Sohni Mahiwal’ (1946). I had come across this song when I joined this blog as a lyrics contributor in 2012-2013.

The movie was directed by Ishwar Lal and Ravindra Jaikar for Jayant Desai Productions, Bombay. The story is based on the legend of Sohni Mahiwal. It had Ishwar Lal, Begam Para, Mubarak, Dixit, Rewashankar, Sayeed Ahmed, Gharpure, Bibibai, Shobha, Nafis Begam, Kesharbai and others.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 42
————————————————————————————–

This date ten years ago (6 April 2012) saw as many as seven songs from seven different movies getting covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Blog post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
5740 Tu kaun si badli mein mere chaand hai aa jaa Khandaan(1942) Movie YIPPEED by now
5741 Bol pardesia ye toone kyaa kiya Mangu (1954) 6 songs covered in the blog out of 7
5742 Zara seekh lo ankhiyon sharmaana/a> Vachan (1955) Movie YIPPEED by now
5743 Mubaarak sab to phoolon ka sajaa kar laaye hain sehra Zindagi Ya Toofaan(1958) Movie YIPPEED by now
5744 Maine kaha babuji itna bataaoge Chhoti Bhabhi(1950) 8 songs covered out of 9
5745 Thhoda sa intezaar keejiye Chowkidaar (1974) Movie YIPPEED by now
5746 Manmohana tu jo bhi de Vandana (1975) 2 songs covered out of 5

We can see that four movies (out of 7) whose songs were covered in the blog ten years ago have since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with three movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (6 April 2022).

Today’s song is from a totally unknown and obscure film Shah E Misr-1946. The only reason this film will ever be remembered by the Historians is because film actor Ajit made his debut as a hero in this film, albeit with his real name Hamid. So, except the Historians and Ajit, you and I are the only people in this world who know the significance of this film !

I am presenting a rare song of a 1946 released film, sung by Mohammed Rafi. I came across this song for the first time about 5-6 years back on one of the video-sharing platforms and I immensely liked it. However, to my dismay, I found that the uploaded song was incomplete. I could not find the full song on any of the video sharing-platforms at that time. I tried to locate it from other on-line sources but failed to get it. Gradually, this song went out of my mind. It was only yesterday, I accidentally found the full song – accidentally because the uploader of the song (probably a ‘front’ for SAREGAMA) while uploading the song about 3 years back, wrongly captioned it.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 38
————————————————————————————–

This date ten years ago (viz 29 march 2012) was a lean day for the blog. This date saw only two songs from two different movies getting covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Blog post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
5702 Dil mein shama jalaake tere intezaar ki Sabak(1950) & songs covered so far out of 10
5703 Muhabbat ka naghma zubaan par na aata Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya (1963) Movie YIPPEED by now

It can be seen that one of the two movies whose songs were covered on 29 march 2012 has since been YIPPEED.

That leaves us with only one movie which is eligible for Blog Ten Year challenge today ten years later on 29 march 2022.

This movie is “Sabak”(1950).

This article is the 16900th post in the blog on its 5000th day.

Blog Day :

5000 Post No. : 16900

Today (27 March 2022) is one of those days that arrives regularly in the blog. It is the century post day. Moreover, it is an even more special day for the blog. Today is the 5000th day of the blog !

The fact that today is the 5000th day of the blog was known for quite some time. The idea that this day should coincide with the century post germinated a few days ago, even though it meant that we needed to go at a slower rate than even the already slow rate for the blog.
