Today’s post is Prakashchandrajee’s farmaish. He requested me to write a post on the song “tum mere sapnon me aanaa chhodd do“ from the film Madhavi (1969). He had mentioned this song in a comment to the post written by Atuljee on “Actresses whose name begin with the letter D and have lip-synced to Asha Bhosle’s song.“ In this comment he had mentioned the actress Deepa who debuted in this film.

On imdb the role of Madhavi is attributed to the actress Unni Mary, to whom the name Deepa is also attributed. Her birth year is given as 12 March 1962. The film Madhavi was released in 1969, which would make the actress at the most 7 years old in the film. The actress Deepa in the film looks anything but seven. Thus, it must be false attribution. I couldn’t unearth anything more than this about this actress.

Madhavi (1969) is a rather unusual historical costume drama. The film is based on the Marathi play “Punya Prabhav” by R.G. Gadkari. The film stars Sanjay Khan, Padmini and Pran. Deepa is given the credit as “Introducing Deepa as Madhavi”. The producer is B. Radhakrishna. This film is directed by Tapi Chanakya.

Mukesh and his Co-Singers –20

This post today brings us to the 900th song of Mukesh on the blog. This is a significant milestone, considering that the total songs of by Mukesh are just about one thousand. As we get closer to that number, the songs are becoming harder to trace.

Today, 22 July is legendary singer Mukesh’s birthday. (22 July 1923 – 27 August 1976)

And this is his 900th song on the blog.  As such, it is a very special post. 

There is a possibility that this could be his last century on the blog and that he is unlikely to reach the magical 4-digit tally. However, I shall leave no stone unturned to disprove myself. Long ago, I had even made a mental note and earmarked a unique song to post as his 1000th song on the blog, if we could manage to do so. However, it was covered by one of the editors. Can anyone guess that unique song ?

Today’s song is from a ‘un-released’ movie from the decade of 1970s. According to the link of this song the year for this movie is mentioned as 1969 and from what the song is all about, I guess this year should be correct for this movie and this song. The title of this movie is ‘Chautha Paalnaa’.

The information about this movie is given in HFGK Vol-V (1971-1980). It only mentions about the banner for this movie which is ‘Education & Social Reform’. The list of the songs has only one song which we are discussing here today. Only one song title is mentioned on this movie-page leaving space indicating possibility of more songs from this movie. The name of the lyricist for is mentioned as Balkavi Bairagi and music composer as SN Tripathi.

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #

I discovered this blog in the year 2009 while searching for songs penned by Sahir Ludhianvi. My first comment on this blog was on the song ‘kashtee kaa khaamosh safar hai’ on 15 September 2009 more than two months after this song was posted on the blog on 12 July 2009. I had sent this comment after some hesitation because I was new to blogs and for that matter to internet itself and I was not sure whether my comment will get published. Fortunately, it all went well. 🙂 My comment got published :-

I love the music and specifically Hindi music/songs from old Hindi films and try to collect them in my collection i.e. cassettes or cds . Now a days I am collecting the lyrics for old songs and which contains true poetry and are true gems in our Hindi films history.

The great work being carried by you deserves much accolades and NOT a mere thank you, since the work being carried by you is priceless and very very precious for peoples like me.

After this initial comment, I kept visiting this blog regularly for those songs that I remembered from my younger days and which were missing from my collections of cassettes. My understanding of this blog then was that some of the songs that I was looking for were available here while others were not available.
