Today’s song is from the film Guru Ghantal-1956.
I remember there was another film of the same title made in 1937, starring the stunt Hero Navinchandra Joshi and Gohar Karnataki – sister of actress/singer Amirbai Karnataki. The other name of that film was ‘Shareef Badmash’. I was wondering as to what was the real meaning of ” Guru Ghantal”. When I tried to find out, I learnt that Guru Ghantal means a Cheater, a very cunning or extra clever person, who is not what he claims to be !

Today’s song is from the film ‘Naqabposh’ (1956).
I am from that generation, which lived in a joint family. There used to be anything from 10 to 20 adult members in the household and everyone was assigned certain duties. As far as children were concerned, doing small jobs, following orders from elders, studying regularly and sleeping early was expected from them.One of the interesting points in our daily life used to be to listen to stories told by the old generation members like the grandfather and grandmother, before we went to sleep.

Commemorating 100 years of Rafi – 44th Death anniversary on 31st July, 2024.
basti basti parbat parbat
gaata jaaye banjaaraa aa
le kar dil ka ek taaraa aa
There are iconic songs in the Hindi film songs, and then there is this song (film ‘Railway Platform’ – 1955). Really. For my generation of Hindi film music fans, this is the iconic one. Like one comment in the blog post says “Vividh Bharati song, Is geet ko koi bhi sachcha listner kaise bhool sakta hai….ek ek shabd, ek ek piece sangeet ka, dil, aur dimaag ke andar record kiya hua hai. Mujhe yaad hai aise bahut log hain JINHONE apni zindagi men PEHLA Hindi geet YE GEET suna, aur Hindi geeton ke deewaane ho gaye. AAJ TAK WOH DEEWANE HAIN.”

Today’s song is from the film Ghungroo-1952. The film was made by Filmkaar Ltd., Bombay. It was directed by Hiren Bose and the music was by C.Ramchandra. The cast of the film consisted of Omprakash, Sumitra Devi, Kuldeep kaur, K.N.Singh, Badri prashad and others.
During the early phase to the Golden era of Hindi film music, the atmosphere in the industry was very cordial. Everyone had the opportunity to grow in his field and there were no ill feelings either on religious basis or success/failure basis. In such a healthy atmosphere, few friendships between actors, directors, MDs and even producers grew deep. Some of them were ideal and people in the industry used to quote their friendship in their gatherings. Here are some examples….

Today’s song is the last and the final song from the film Chhabili-1960.
Every country has some speciality or a peculiar characteristic, which is unique to itself.
For example, the loyalty of the British Citizen to their King/Queen, the extraordinary National Pride of the Japanese, the pride of every American for their rich country etc. So, what is India’s speciality ?
