I tend to liken the journey of this blog to a train. But nowadays I find the comparison less appropriate because a train stops at intermediate stations for a while whereas we in this blog do not stop at any of the milestones and keep going along, though we may sometimes become somewhat slower than usual for various reasons. So that way, I find the comparison of this blog with a road journey somewhat more appropriate where one need not stop anywhere, and one can see milestones going past at high speed.

Today (24 october) is the birth anniversary of Jeevan, one of the major villains of Hindi movies from 1950s to 1970s.
Villains of Hindi movies typically concentrated on torturing the lead actors rather than lip syncing songs, and so there may not be too many songs that could be said to be picturised on them.

Today (11 October) is the 70th birth anniversary of Amitabh Bachchan. He was born this day in 1942.
Today he is a well established legend, but his beginnings were quite shaky and uninspiring.

And after that Amitabh Bachchan did not have to look back.

Ah Ganesh, the unsung genius composer, creator of incredible melodies and rhythms that almost never got picturized on the so called grade A stars of his time. His songs, buzzing with hummable and memorable tunes, played themselves out in B and C grade cinema halls, in productions that were considered of the same categories. Some of his songs escaped this banishment to the C grade world, and found a place on the radio waves, and in the mind and memories of listeners. Some such songs have remained in the memories; but then there are many other remarkable creations from him that await re-discovery by aficionados.
