This blog started on the first day of shrawan (which fell on 19 july 2008) and that month of shrawan ended on 16 august 2008. Last day of the month of Shrawan which happens to be shrawan purnima is celebrated as the festival of Rakhi.
In other words, the blog started on the first day of shrawan and it had its first rakhi festival day exactly on the last date of that month.
All this was without any planning at the human level. It was destiny ordaining all these without the knowledge of us mortals. I have discovered this fact only now, 16 years later, as I took up the task of penning an article for this year’s rakhi festival.

Today’s song is from the film Thokar-1953.
Films with the same title were also made in 1939 and 1974. This film was produced and directed by Lekhraj Bhakri, for his own banner-Jubilee Pictures, Bombay. Lekhraj Bhakri was a multi-faceted artiste. He was a Lyricist, a story writer, dialogue writer and a screenplay writer, producer and a successful director.

Today’s song is from the film Aabshar-1953.
For a long time, I just wondered as to what was the meaning of this word Aabshar. Then I looked into an Urdu-English dictionary and found out that it means’ Waterfall’ or “things coming all at a time” or ‘a Cascade’. Obviously, it was about the film’s story. This was a social film. The story revolved around a good looking simple village girl-Nimmi and a young, rich, city educated man Rajkumar, who falls in love with her during one of his visits to his hometown. The brother of the girl-Tiwari, is against this affair as he has already consented to the love of his friend for his sister. However Nimmi hates him. To add to all this, there is a murder in the village, for which the Hero is held responsible. Of course, all is well, at the end of the movie the real culprit is found to be the girl’s brother only. All is well, before the words ‘ The End ” appear on the screen, to the relief of the audience.

Today’s song is from a folk tale based film ‘Naulakha Haar’ (1953).
The film was inspired by the famous folk tale of Rajasthan about the love story of Alha-Udal, with the background of 2 warring kingdoms. A lot of cinematic liberty is taken while writing the film story, in order to make the film appealing to more types of audience. Films on famous folk tales are not uncommon in the Hindi film industry. In fact they are a great source of imagination to form hundreds of stories, with desirable changes in the script. Hindi film makers have been making films on such traditional folk stories from all over India. When they exhausted such stories they turned to stories from Arabia and Europe too, besides our own Mythology and Puranas. Some of the love stories I remember offhand , which were made into Hindi films are….

Today’s song is a duet from the film Khoj-1953. A total of 3 films were made with the same title Khoj, in 1953, 1971 and 1989.
Long time back, I don’t exactly remember when, I had read in an English book on Psychology that as a rule, 7 people in this world are mirror images of each others – which means they look exactly like each others ! I could hardly believe it. The book further said that this does not include twins- because they naturally look alike mostly. This made their earlier statement more intriguing.

Today (12 November 2023) is “Deepaawali”, the festival of lights.
In some of my earlier posts discussing Deepawali, I have opined that Indians are not performing Laxmi Puja the right way and that is why we are not being adequately blessed by Goddess Laxmi. In those posts, I alluded to our habits (passed down to us over generations) that was keeping us poor.

Today’s song is from an extremely obscure film Chhoti Duniya-1953.
The reason this film is so obscure is that the film was made by an unknown banner – Meera Productions, Ahmedabad. The producer’s name- D.M.Sheth- was as unknown as this film’s director- cum – Hero, Uday Kumar. The entire list of the starcast was almost full of less known or unknown artistes like Uday Kumar, Leela Kumari, Nannoo, Ranjit kumari, Ashwini Roy, B.Lalwani, Mulji Khushal, Babu, Chander, Asha etc. Since it was a film produced in Gujarat, it is possible that some of the artistes may be from Gujarathi films or stage dramas. If so and if any of the readers know it, kindly mention it in the Comments column.
