When I take a look at the list of movies whose songs have figured in this blog, I find that just over 1800 movies are represented in the blog. Most of these movies date from 1930s upto 1980s, during which time about 5600 Hindi movies got censors certificate. So roughly speaking about one third of all released movies till 1980s are represented in this blog.

This post is in response to a comment and a farmaish posted by Lalitha ji more than two years ago on 6th January, 2009 (details further down).
Children’s Day is variously celebrated in different parts of the world, on different days. In India, it is celebrated on this day (14th November) every year. (This day also is the birth anniversary of the first Prime Minister of India, Jawaharlal Nehru.) There are other dates on which International Children’s Day (1st June) and Universal Children’s Day (20th November) are celebrated. 20th November is the day on which the Declaration of the Rights of the Child was adopted by UN General Assembly in 1959.

There is one more qawwaali from the same film, not as well known, and is somewhat rare and obscure. But then, bless this YouTube that I am able to trace this qawwaali finally.
