Slowly and steadily, we reach the landmark of yet another blog century, namely the blog century number 206. Or in other words, blog post number 20600.The previous century post had appeared on 13 August 2026 and it was published by Sudhir Jee. Not just the century post, bulk of posts leading up to that century post were published by him whereas I was absent from action for more than a month.

Today is 4 October 2026. So this century is appearing 52 days after the previous century. The reason for this slow pace is known to the regulars. What is important and heartening to note is that the blog continued to be active despite my absence thanks to the active participation of the other contributors. Sudhir Jee published bulk of posts sent by the contributors during this period. The contributors themselves went out of their way in ensuring that the blog continued to function normally, even if the rate of posts came down.

Today’s song is the Last and final song from the Family Drama film Saas bhi kabhi Bahu thi – 1970.

The title of the film immediately reminds us of the popular TV serial Saas bhi kabhi Bahu thi which continuously ran from 3-7-2000 to 6-11-2008 in its first run and then the Season 2 started from 29-7-2025. Though the name of the serial and this film are similar, there is no connection between them. Of course, as the name suggests both were about the sour relationships of the Mother in law and the Daughter in law, which finally end in the sweet way – as expected by the audience and provided by the producers !

Sas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi (1970) is a classic Bollywood family drama-comedy that delves into the eternal, generation-spanning conflicts between mothers-in-law (saas) and daughters-in-law (bahu). Produced and Directed by V. Madhusudan Rao and featuring music by R. D. Burman, the film serves as a lesson in how misunderstanding can fracture a home and how empathy ultimately rebuilds it.

Today’s post is Prakashchandrajee’s farmaish. He requested me to write a post on the song “tum mere sapnon me aanaa chhodd do“ from the film Madhavi (1969). He had mentioned this song in a comment to the post written by Atuljee on “Actresses whose name begin with the letter D and have lip-synced to Asha Bhosle’s song.“ In this comment he had mentioned the actress Deepa who debuted in this film.

On imdb the role of Madhavi is attributed to the actress Unni Mary, to whom the name Deepa is also attributed. Her birth year is given as 12 March 1962. The film Madhavi was released in 1969, which would make the actress at the most 7 years old in the film. The actress Deepa in the film looks anything but seven. Thus, it must be false attribution. I couldn’t unearth anything more than this about this actress.

Madhavi (1969) is a rather unusual historical costume drama. The film is based on the Marathi play “Punya Prabhav” by R.G. Gadkari. The film stars Sanjay Khan, Padmini and Pran. Deepa is given the credit as “Introducing Deepa as Madhavi”. The producer is B. Radhakrishna. This film is directed by Tapi Chanakya.
