Honest and reliable domestic help is a novelty and blessing in our times for someone like me who has interest in everything but household chores. As a young girl, I was for a time conscientious about house keeping. I was always rearranging the furniture and trying to change the decor and look of the house, with the limited scope for doing such things and no monetary expenditure. This fad lasted for a few years till I started working. Even now I sometimes feel an urge to change things in the house, to create new spaces within the limits of the small, spacious flat, which is normal and happens to every one.

When I was growing up in late 1960s and the whole of 1970s, I was familiar with the then current generation singers like Kishore Kumar, Lata, Rafi, Asha Bhonsle, Mukesh etc. My exposure to old generation singers was initially through the “puraani filmon ke geet” programme of Radio Ceylon (later renamed SLBC) from 7-30 to 8 AM. It is not that I consciously listened to this programme. On a typical morning, one of the elders in the home (who was in the position of “authority” to operate the radio would switch on the radio, and if I was lucky then the radio station tuned would be Radio Ceylon. The early morning programme was instrumental music where tunes of Hindi movie songs, played by Enoch Daniels were broadcast. I loved this programme because listening to instrumentals of current songs was a new and thrilling experience for me. This programme would then be followed by programmes where old songs were played and I was not interested in them. I would wait for 8 AM, when the last song of “Puraani filmon ke geet” would be sung by K L Saigal and then the “Aap hi ke geet” farmaishi programme would start, much to the glee of farmaish senders from Jhumri Tilaiyya, Ganj Basoda, Yavatmal, Rajnandgaaon etc. 🙂

Going through the posts in the blog does not give readers an indication of my whereabouts at the time of posting, unless I mention it. When I think about it, I have been to several places in the last few months and my posts have been made from places like Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Delhi, Gujarat, Maharashtra etc in addition to my present day location in Chattisgarh. Even in Chhattisgarh, I do not remain at one fixed place all the time.

VANDE MATARAM does not need any introduction. Its mere utterance thrills every true Indian. It has earned a special place in every true Indian’s heart.This is not an ordinary poem. It has inspired all the Freedom Fighters over last more than 100 years. Great Revolutionaries like Bhagat Singh welcomed the death by singing Vande Mataram.
