Most of us are familiar with this lovely song ‘ham dono milke kaaghaz pe dil ke chitthi likhenge, jawaab aayegaa’ from the movie ‘Tumhaari Kasam-1978’. This song used to be played frequently on radio when I was growing up(going by the release date of the movie I was just above ten years of age then).

If you search in google for ‘history of post cards in India’ top of the results yields this result;

In July 1879, the Post Office of India introduced a quarter anna postcard that could be posted from one place to another within British India. This was the cheapest form of post provided to the Indian people to date and proved a huge success. … The postcard facility continues to this date in independent India.

Regulars on the blog are aware of how some members of this blog are fond of talking about our social institutions or our public transports and communication, like railways and post departments specifically.
Actually, it would not be wrong to say that some members like me are madly in love with the railways and postal departments in our country. And why not, both the railways and postal departments have their presence all over the country and these services also play major roles in nation building and national integration. I have a BIG nostalgia associated with both of these services.

# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # 125 # Khaleefaa-1976
——————————————-—————————

Welcome all to this post where once again we are going back to ‘one song movie’ on the blog.
Today’s movie is ‘Khaleefaa-1976’. This movie made its debut on the blog on 02.09.2008 with its most popular song ‘dil machal rahaa hai, rang badal rahaa hai’.

However, the movie is waiting for its second song since 02.09.2008 and that makes a 4579 days l-o-n-g wait for this movie … (so, as of now, this is the record for maximum days between first and the second song of a movie on the blog. The earlier record was for 4540 days here .).

Hullo Atuldom

There is a popular movie of the late ’70s, that has had a rather slow journey through the blog. With this post I hope to bring it to the YYIIPPEEEE station.

It began its journey on the blog with its most iconic song. A song that gave its singer -the legend Mohd. Rafi the National Award for best singer as well as that year’s Filmfare award. The song sort of put all doubting Thomas(es) in their place.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2011-2021) – Song No. 16
—————————————————————————

As many as six songs from six movies were covered on this date ten years ago on 10 march 2011.

Here are the details of the six songs that were covered on that day :-

Blog post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
3633 Tumne kahaa chhoo maine chhoo liyaa Saawan(1959) Movie YIPPEED by now
3634 Wo dekho dekh rahaa thhaa papeehaa Fariyaad(1964) Four songs covered by now out of 6
3635 Aise to na dekho Bheegi Raat(1965) Movie YIPPEED by now
3636 Sun ae bahaar e husn mujhe tum se pyaar hai Night in London(1967) Movie YIPPEED by now

3638 Do bechaare bina sahaare Victoria number 203 (1972) Movie YIPPEED by now

One can notice that four movies (out of six) whose songs were discussed ten years ago on that date have since been YIPPEED in the blog. So only two movies are eligible for blog ten year challenge today. The first such movie, viz “Fariyaad”(1964) has already been taken up for this challenge today.

It is difficult for me to tell what I was doing during various dates of years gone by, seeing that I do not keep any diary. Diary writing used to be a great hobby of people of past generations. Now a days even the habit of writing with pen on paper has largely gone into disuse, and therefore going back don memor lane and giving accurate personal reminiscences has become difficult.

Today (8 march 2021) is the birth anniversary of Sahir Ludhianvi(8 March 1921 – 25 October 1980). Yesterday (7 match 2021) was the remembrance day of Ravi (3 March 1926- 7 March 2012) as well. Together this lyricist-music director pair worked in 19 movies. Out of all music directors that Sahir Ludhianvi worked with, his collaboration with Ravi was the longest. Avinash Scrapwala, during his just concluded Sahir Ludhianvi series of articles, has given a detailed account of this collaboration in this article.
