It was in early may (5 may 2026 to be precise) when the blog reached its previous century (blog post number 20200). Today,we are still in the month of may 2026, and we find ourselves reaching next century (blog post number 20300). Two centuries in the same month ! It is like two full moon days in the same month. 🙂
It must be said that reaching two centuries in a month was fairly common for the blog, but the last time this feat was achieved was in February 2018. Prior to that it was achieved in March 2017 and January 2015. This was very common before that. There were as manty as 34 such occasions before 2015. The month of April 2013 was extra special. As many as three century posts were published that month (on 1 april, 14 april and 28 april)! Those were the days when we used to score centuries in 13 and 14 days. The fastest century in the blog is scored in 11 days (song post number 4600 on 9 september 2011).
25 days for a century at a rate of 4 songs a day is quite decent by our present rate of posting. Unlike in the past, most posts now a days are guest posts. It shows that the blog has now firmly become an online collaboration of likeminded music lovers.

The song being covered in this post is from the movie ‘Indraasan-1952’. Other title of this movie is ‘Ekadashee Mahimaa’. Two songs from this movie have been posted on the blog so far. I guess that the songs from this movie were difficult to find earlier but now some songs of this movie have become available online. We are grateful to the music lovers who have uploaded these songs.
“Indraasan” was directed by Raja Nene for ‘Greenland Pictures’. It was produced by Mafatlal D. Shah and it was passed by Censor Board on 08.05.1952. This movie had Ranjana, Prem Adib, Ishwar Lal, Nand Kishore, Babu Raje, Bheem, Urvashi, Roopmati, Master Ratan, Paro, Durga Khote and others.
