So here is the ‘S’ alphabet song I talked about in my last post on ‘R’ song. It is a Rafi solo with two versions, one happy and one sad, from the movie “Jhuk gayaa aasmaan”.

I could not believe my luck when I found that this song was not posted.

In 1946, the renowned Ghulam Haider took a very young 18 year old girl to Filmistan Studio, to introduce her to S Mukherjee.

A career that was forever in either the B grade cinema, getting the macho image of an anti-hero, long before the arrival of Amitabh, or being the friend or a brother of the leading man, whenever he got the opportunity to venture into the A grade films. Or the second level where he called his own shots, made his own films and produced one blockbuster after another.
Remembering Feroze Khan on his 74th anniversary of birth today.
