Today’s song is from a C grade Stunt film- Flying Ranee-1959.

This song was quite popular in its time and indeed it is a very melodious song. Only thing is that the tune of the song is such that you feel like listening to an O P Nayyar song. In the late 50’s, OPN had given several foot tapping and melodious songs. But such a song coming from Music Director B N Bali is very astonishing. He was not known to give such good songs. He was, however, branded as a ” Copy Cat”. In many of his songs , you feel that there was another such song already. Even today’s song is a copy of a popular OPN song.

Today’s song is a foot tapping song from the film Fashionable wife-1959.

Nepotism, Corruption and Lack of Nationalism are the 3 ills common to most Indians. These things have been so common that not only now they are deep rooted in our behaviour, but also we have stopped considering them as vices anymore. They are a part of our life in many ways.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 22
————————————————————————————–

The month of february 2012 was a “normal” month by the standard of the blog those days. A typical day of that month saw 6, 7, or 8 songs getting covered in the blog.

23 February 2012 was very much a “normal” day for the blog in the sense that seven songs from seven different movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details :-

Blog post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
5509 Mar gaye ham jeete jee maalik tere sansaar mein Shabaab(1954) Movie YIPPEED by now
5510 Mere lalla ko sulaayegi nindiya Suhaagan(1954) Movie YIPPEED by now
5511 Saagar pe aaj maujon ka raaj Rangoli(1962) Movie YIPPEED by now
5512 Roshan hai tere dam se Devdas(1935) Movie YIPPEED by now
5513 Dekho roothha na karo baat nazron ki suno Tere Ghar Ke Saamne(1963) Movie YIPPEED by now
5514 Tose laage naina Nayi Raahein (1959) 6 songs covered out of 7
5515 Laayi kahaan hai zindagi Taxi Taxie(1977) 3 songs covered out of 5 by now

One can notice that five movies (out of seven) whose songs were represented on the blog ten years ago on this date have since been YIPPEED. That leaves us with only two movies that are yet to be YIPPEED and therefore eligible for the Blog ten year challenge today on 23 February 2022.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 9
————————————————————————————–

Today (18 January 2022) is a foggy wintery shivery morning in North India. To add to this woe, the nation is also into the grips of the third wave of Covid-19 virus.

This day ten years ago, viz 18 january 2012 was almost world apart. Those days I was in a stage of transition, viz I had been transferred to Bilaspur, but my attachmnent from Nagpur was still there, where I still had my accomodation. Since I had not got my accomodation at Bilaspur where I had been transferred, I would go back to Nagpur during weekends and holidays at the first available opportunity.

Even without any proper accomodation, I had settled down well into my blogging, even if the rate of daily posts had gone down a bit.

It is clear that 18 January 2012 was no where near as difficult a day as 18 january 2022. Unlike today, when I woke up late and that too reluctantly, I has woken up early ten years ago as was my wont. Six songs were covered on that day. All these songs got covered before noon.

When I saw this song on You Tube, a few days ago, I was very happy. This was one of the most popular Lories in those days – and naturally so, because it was composed by the melody King Chitragupt and was sung by the melody Queen Lata Mangeshkar. In one of her interviews to Film fare, she had said ” I like to sing songs of Chitragupt ji and I particularly liked the lori ‘ Chanda loriyan sunaaye’ from film Naya Sansar-1959.”
