Hullo Atuldom

Taking out 1924 from 2025 gives us 101. Is the figure correct? Does that mean today would have been the 101st birthday of Madan Mohan- the composer who gave us such gems as “Rasm-e-ulfat ko nibhaein to nibhaein kaise“, “Kar chale hum fida“, “Kaun Aaya Mere Man Ke Dwaare” and lots more. Our blog’s stats page gives the number of songs as 630 of which the blog has 577.

Madan Mohan’s music was characterised by his immense ability to blend elements of Indian classical music into a new style of Hindi filmi song. He had a keen and sensitive ear for the nuances of Indian classical tunes, and combined them with elements of Western music such as harmonies to produce a style of music that could be appreciated by both classical music aficionados and the common person alike.

Kamsune/Unsune songs of Asha Bhosle- 22

This song under discussion is “Jis Ke Liye Mera Dil Jaley” by Asha Bhosle. It is written by Anand Bakshi and is composed by Laxmikant Pyarelal. The song is from “Haseenon Ka Devata” (1971).

“Haseenon Ka Devata” (1971) is a Hindi-language action-drama film directed by Ravikant Nagaich for producer Ram Dayal. It starred Sanjay Khan, Rekha, Bindu, and Helen in lead roles. The film blends suspense, romance, and espionage, in a style similar to Nagaich’s other spy thrillers like Farz, Keemat, etc.

Yesterday, I was watching the song, gumsum saa ye jahaan ye raat ye hawaa from the film, ‘Duniya Jhuktee Hai’ (1960). An idea came to me as to how many Hindi films songs may have the word ‘gumsum’ in the first line of the mukhda of the songs. I checked on the internet and found that over two dozen songs had the word, ‘gumsum’ in the first line of the mukhda. There may be more Hindi film songs with ‘gumsum’ but they may appear elsewhere in the songs. I selected few such songs to watch/listen. One of ‘gumsum’ songs which I heard for the first time and liked so much that I must have heard umpteen times. It is a beautifully crafted song in terms of lyrics, rendition, orchestration and the picturisation. The song is ‘gumsum kyun hai sanam o zaraa maan jaa’ from the film, ‘Bhala Maanush’ (1979) which I am presenting in this short write-up, concentrating mainly on the song. Gulshan Bawra wrote this song.

Hullo Atuldom

Wishing our guiding force; ex-Ranchiwala now-Bhopali Gaanewala, usually addressed as Atulji by the followers of ASAD (acronym for atulsongaday) A Very Happy Birthday. I thank him (as always) for providing us this platform where “birds of a feather flock together”. What started as a place for one post (not necessarily one song though, as some posts contain all versions of a song) a day had become a multi-post per day blog after the initial few months of its journey. May today and all of your days be creative and innovative.
