Today, September 03, 2025 is the 28th Remembrance Day of a well-known lyricist who wrote more than 1300 songs in over 300 films. His name was Lalji Pandey but his college friends gave him a pseudo name, ‘Anjaan’ while participating in mushaira in the college functions as well as elsewhere. He retained this pseudo name when he started writing articles, poems and later lyrics.

Anjaan (28/10/1930 – 03/09/1997) was born in Odar village, about 30 kms from Banaras. His father was working as a peon in Central Bank of India, Banaras. After completing the primary school in his village, Anjaan came to Banaras and completed high school. His father was keen that he also joins the bank services like him. So, he put him in commerce stream of Banaras Hindu University from where he passed B.Com. In this way, Anjaan became the first graduate from his village.

Today’s song is from a film – Naya Kanoon-1965 – which had an offbeat story on current affairs of IPC. Unfortunately due to several reasons the film was not successful. Two reasons were there. First was, in 1965 so many iconic and milestone movies were made that anything less than their standard was unlikely to have acceptance of the audience. Secondly, the film had inherent lacunae which downgraded it.

Today’s song is from the Costume film Raaka-1965.

The film was directed by Kedar Kapoor. Music was by Dattaram- who had been a long time assistant to Shankar-Jaikishen pair and few others for some time. The cast of the film was Dara Singh, Mumtaz, K.N.Singh, Kamal Mehra, Shyam Kumar etc. I was surprised to see the name of K.N.Singh in the film’s cast. One would hardly find the name of this sophisticated villain in such a type of C grade film !

Today’s song is from a C grade stunt film Khooni Khazana-1965. The film was directed by A.Shamshir and the music was by S.Kishen. The cast included Vijaya Chaudhari ( real name Qurasha Begum), Sudhir, Bhagwan, Madan Puri, Shaikh Mukhtar, Bela Bose, Jeevan Kala, Heera Sawant and many other small-time actors. This C grade film was among the last few stunt action films, which were on their way to the end of their era.

I was a great fan and admirer of C grade action/stunt/costume films from my young age. The decorative sets and the unusually long, shining and attractive costumes in the films, the daredevil stunts and the hand or the sword fighting in these films impressed me. Unfortunately, as I grew older, the number of such films was reducing and by the time I almost stopped running after films by the 1970 beginning, C grade action, stunt and Costume films almost disappeared from the theatres. Perhaps their regular audience thinned out or the stuntmen became old or producers of such films turned to other more respectable Genres. Whatever the reason, reality was that the end of such films had occurred !

‘Ham Deewaane’ (1964) was produced by Natubhai Shah under the banner of Young India Entertainers and was directed by Master Bhagwan. The cast included Chandrashekhar, Master Bhagwan, Mumtaz, Helen, Iftekhar, Agha, Rajan Haksar, Maruti, Kundan, Anwar, Kanchanmala etc. This film was one among many attempts by Master Bhagwan to revive his filmy career which was being reduced to acting in small roles. However, this film was also an attempt to revive the musical career of C Ramchandra who composed the songs for this film as Anna Saheb, the name he had often used when associated with the films produced/directed by Master Bhagwan.

teri aawaaz se rahe bekhabar
hamare dil ki kab ye mazaal hai

Due apologies to Majrooh saab for tweaking his well-known ghazal from Aakhri Daao (1958)
Remembering and celebrating Mohammed Rafi saab on his birth centenary (24 December 1924-31 July 1980).
It is just 44 years since Rafi saab passed away in 1980, but ever since he graced our HFM with his matchless voice, it is as if the voice always existed and will remain us forever.

Once I post the century post in the blog, I heave a big sigh of relief and tell myself that I am free from tension as the next century post is far far away. So it came as a surprise to me that the next cenbtury post for the blog has arrived. I thought that the previous blog century post had appeared just a few days ago ! How can we reach the next century so fast ? On checking up, I realised that the previous century post viz blog post number 18500 has appeared on 14 september 2024. Today is 3 November, so fifty days have passed. 100 songs in 50 days are to be expected, even with the slow rate of posts that we have settled into now a days.
