As it is, Blog century is a regular and recurring destination for the blog. after we arrive at a blog century, we do not take a pause rather keep continuing to cover more and more songs in the blog and before we realise, we are staring at the next blog century.
This has taught me a lesson that When you do not worry about the destination then you reach your destination almost painlessly and unnoticeably.When one thinks about it, one realises that we have had as many as 196 blog centuries already and now we are only blog century number 197, viz blog song post number 19700.
This blog century has been reached in 26 days, which appears quite a good pace for the blog at present. We cannot compare this rate from the last decade when we were clocking centuries in 16 days but then we were one decade younger at that time and we had far more energy.

‘Main Hoon Alladin’ (1965) was produced by K N Sippy and was directed by Mohmmed Hussain. The cast included Ajit, Saeeda Khan, Madan Puri, Maruti, David, Amar, Jagirdar, Sham Kumar, Ratnamala, Mumtaz Begum, Munshi Munaka, Mulchand, Khalil, Nazir Kashmiri, Habib and others. The film was based on ‘Arabian Nights’ stories and belongs to ‘costume and fantasy’ genre.
The film is available in the VCR format. Though the film is in colour, the quality of both video and audio is not up to the mark. There appears to be some deletion of scenes at a few places as the story does not give a feel of a smooth changeover. As it is, the story of the film itself appears to be an amalgam of sub-plots. The first part mostly covers the character around Alladin and his love interest, Salma while the second part mostly gives the impression of a repeat of the fairytales of ‘Alladin and the Wonderful Lamp’. Still, the film is interesting to watch and all the songs are melodious.

To change our mood and taste from Asha Ji’s rare songs, we move towards my most favourite amongst all the playback singers in all languages, the Legend worthy of being awarded the Bharat Ratna, Mohd. Rafi Saab.
We will keep the discussion about the Bharat Ratna for another day.
‘Rootha Na Karo’ is a film from the banner of Nirmal Pictures, Bombay, directed by Sundar Dar. All the seven songs in this film are written by Hasrat Jaipuri.

In Hindi films, in addition to heroines, there would be one or two secondary female characters. For examples, in the love triangle involving the hero, there would be ‘other woman’. To create a rift between hero and the heroine, there will be a vamp. Then, Hindi films’ model box office formula stories also require female characters of seducer, westernised women of high society, courtesans, hero/heroine’s sister and friend etc. There were some popular actresses who were known for doing such character’s roles like Kuldeep Kaur, Shashikala, Nishi, Aruna Irani, Helen, Bindu, Faryal, Naaz, Nazima and many more during 1950s to 1970s. There were some lesser known actresses doing such roles, one of them being Lolita Chatterjee. This diva from Kolkata with her glamorous look, drew the attention of Hindi film makers during mid-1960 to mid-1970.

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #
———————————————————————
Today I am presenting a Qawwaalee song sung by Jaani Babu Qawwaal and Krishna Kalle. The movie is ‘Sakhi Lutera-1969’. This movie had made its debut on the blog on 22.05.2018 with its song ‘sochaa hai tumse pyaar karoon, kyaa khayaal hai’. This song was then presented by our respected Sudhir jee and here is what he had mentioned about the word ‘sakhi’ in the title of such movies and how movies with same titles were repeated in the history of Hindi Films.
