Entertaining Sales Pitch Songs – 5
—————————————————–

It should be an interesting exercise – to identify and list out all the sales pitch songs, and then check which actors have performed them on screen. My intuition is that the exercise will indicate that most sales pitch songs, sung by male voices, have been performed on screen by either Johnny Walker or Mehmood.

Hullo to all in Atuldom

Sunday was a learning experience. I visited the encyclopaedia of atuldom. I realised that the wealth of knowledge is not only because he has seen Indian movies but has also read about them. And I was amazed by the system he uses for writing a post. I took the liberty of asking for his collection of The HFGK. And I felt humbled that we in atuldom are celebrating 10900 and here is someone who has volumes on all the songs from the time Hindi films were born. But of course Hamrazji’s work of passion is different from what Atul has set out to do. So that brings us back to the main question. Is atulsongaday atulji’s passion or a vividh bharati for all of us where we send our farmaishes. I have lost count of the number of times I have raised this question. And Atulji, very sportingly just posts one more of our farmaishes :).

Mohammed Rafi – The Incomparable – 2
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
