This Week, That Year – 9
———————————–
26Jun – 02Jul, 2012

Ah yes, long gap. My intention has been to make this series a weekly affair. But then – ‘man proposes, everybody else disposes’ keeps happening with me. 😀 . And so, intentions aside, this series has been a victim of my preoccupations / laziness / lack of creativity – howsoever I may say it. But of course, no excuses are relevant.

Rear view mirror scenario on the blog, of the week that was – 26th Jun to 2nd July of 2012. Let us take a look at the numbers first.

My first real jaan-pehchaan with this actor happened in 1970. The film – ‘Anand’. He plays the role of Dr. Prakash Kulkarni, friend of Dr. Bhaskar Bannerji (Amitabh Bachchan). His role was impressive and touching. At the climax of the film, when Anand is battling for his last breaths, Bhaskar is not present. He has gone on a last ditch hunt for a miracle medicine. Prakash is the doctor present in the room besides Renu (Sumita Sanyal), attending to Anand. It is 4.15 early morning.The final moments arrive. Anand requests for the spool tape player to be put on. Prakash realizes – the worst is about to happen. He asks the attending nurse to prepare an injection. And while the tape is playing Anand calls out for Babu Moshai, and his breathing ceases. Prakash is stunned and cannot move. There is horror and grief and dejection writ large on his face. These moments, this expression, the welling of tears in his eyes, and the unwilling acceptance of a final defeat – left an imprint on my mind strong enough to now remember the name of this actor – Ramesh Deo.

Today’s song is from the film ‘Kismat Palat Ke Dekh’ (1961).

Generally, I like to write on films from the 30’s to the 50’s decade, which is my comfort zone. I feel homely and on friendly ground when I write about those old films. Films after 1960 are NOT a ‘ NO- NO ‘ for me, but unless I find either the film or the song interesting, I normally do not choose that song. That way and to allay any misunderstanding in our readers’ minds, let me stress here that I have written more than 200 posts on films from 1960 to 2013 also. Actually since there is still so much scope in the first 3 decades of talkie films, turning to the films of 60+ songs is not that common.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 49
————————————————————————————–

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Ye Zindagi Kitni Haseen Hai-1966’.

This movie is eligible for representation on the blog today as one of its’ songs was posted ten years back on 02.06.2012.

This day (2 June) that year (in 2012) saw as many as five posts on the blog as per details given below.

Song Movie title(Year) Remarks
Sur saritey kalyaanmayi Prabhu Ki Maaya(1955) 5 of 9 songs posted
Bahut aasaan hai chilman se lagkar muskuraana Rangeen Raatein(1956) All songs covered
Bahut purdard hai ye sunanewaalon Birha Ki Raat(1950) All songs covered
Khudaara yoon dil naa todo Ye Zindagi Kitni Haseen Hai(1966) 4 of 7 songs posted
Ye pyaar thhaa ya kuchh aur thhaa Prem Rog(1982) 4 of 6 songs posted

Out of the five movies mentioned above all songs of two movies viz. ‘Rangeen Raatein-1956’ and ‘Birha Ki Raat-1950’ have been covered. That leaves with us three movies viz. ‘Prabhu Ki Maaya-1955’, ‘Ye Zindagi Kitni Haseen Hai-1966’ and ‘Prem Rog-1982’ that still offers us songs that are yet to be covered.
