In this article, I am presenting a song, ‘suno aye duniyawaalon ek naya paighaam laaya hoon’ from an incomplete film, ‘Naya Mandir’ (1961). It was directed by Kishore Sahu. It had Manoj Kumar, Mala Sinha and Mehmood in main roles. I came to know of this song on the audio album of ‘Film Hi Film’ (1983). Unfortunately, this song seems to have been deleted from the VCD of the film available on one of the video sharing platforms. Since video clip of the song is available in continuation of the scene from ‘Film Hi Film. (1983), it can be construed that the song was included in the film.

Shahab Ahmed, the producer of ‘Film Hi Film’ (1983) had earlier produced ‘Cinema Cinema’ (1979). During his visit to Bombay Film Laboratory, he was astonished to see cans of more than 2000 unfinished films lying in the laboratory. Shahab Ahmed thought that a lot of efforts had gone into making these films which unfortunately remained incomplete for various reasons. So, he came with the idea of incorporating scenes and songs from a few select incomplete films to make a full-length feature film [Source: ‘…and Pran’ (2005) by Bunny Rueben].

During this period, he also independently worked as the music director in 19 films spread over between 1957 and 1971.

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.

Mukesh and his Co-Singers –15

I am extremely delighted to present this next post on Mukesh and his co-singers to the readers of the blog.

Mukesh and Suman Kalyanpur. Two singers who renditions are remembered and enjoyed to this day mainly because of the unique sweetness in their duets.

Their standalone solos and duets with other singers are legendary. But when they came together, the melody was amplified and in a different league altogether. The charm and harmony in their voices is very much evident. Most of the songs that they sang were usually soft romantic numbers.

In many films they had only one song. But many such films are remembered only for the duet of Mukesh and Suman Kalyanpur. Their voices blended perfectly creating iconic songs.

‘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.
