Geeta Dutt – Solos and duets (02)
————————————–————————————–

Among Geeta Dutt’s endearing songs, there are innumerable duets. Maximum no. of her duets is bound to be with Mohammed Rafi sahab, for the obvious reason that at the times she was most active, coincides with the period when various music directors were having all male songs sung by Rafi sahab. So there are films where Rafi sahab has duets with Lata, Asha and Geeta, plus solos by all of them, with a female duet also thrown it. This would be a typical late 50’s music score. Sometimes a female singer or two are changed and Shamshad Begum is there, with one solo and/or duet.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2010-2020) – Song No. 96
———————————————————————————–

25 November 2010, the date exactly ten years ago was a day when six songs were covered in the blog. But unlike earlier months of the year when all six or seven songs got covered before 10 AM, this day was a struggle. The first article (post number 3251) was posted at 8:39 AM. The sixth and final post of the day appeared in the evening at 7:44 PM. So it was a struggle, rather than a breeze, to publish the day’s quota of songs on this day ten years ago.

Here is the list of six songs that were posted on 25 November 2010:-

Post number Song Movie (Year) Status of songs of the movie
3251 O pardesiyaa pyaar ki bahaar leke Bahaar (1951) Movie YIPPEED
3252 Tod ke do nainon ka taalaa Daakaa (1959) 4 songs covered out of 6
3253 Dil apna aur preet paraayi Dil apna aur preet paraayi (1960) Movie YIPPEED
3254 Jai Raghunandan Jai Siyaram Gharaana(1961) Movie YIPPEED
3255 Neend ud jaaye teri chain se sone waale Juaari(1968) Movie YIPPEED
3256 Tum se bichhad ke chain kahaan ham paayenge Maharaja(1970) 2 songs covered out of 5

We can see that four movies out of six whose songs were discussed have already been YIPPEED by now. So songs of only two movies, viz “Daaka”(1959) and “Maharaja”(1970) are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (25 November 2020).
