How many times have we heard the refrain- real life imitating reel life? Or someone says exactly as in the movies. Well I experienced it last year.

Lata Mangeshkar who first sang in a Marathi film ‘Gajabhau’ (1944), is still continuing to sing for Hindi films albeit very sparingly. As per http://www.myswar.com, she sang a solo song for the film ‘Dunno No Y2 Life is a Moment’ (2015). That gives her playback career a span of over 7 decades – a world record, I guess, in playback singing for films. In fact, she sang for 46 films between 2000-2015. I thought why not do a similar exercise for Talat Mehmood.

It is very common to find people exchanging notes on newly born kids—- “whom does it look like? Bilkul baap pe gaya hai?” (Looks exactly like the father) etc. Another thing that is common practice is when a child is growing or even older people face that situation—-“one look and we know whose child you are”. That is another way of telling that one resembles one’s parents. Now there is an old joke that goes in such situations. A lady complimented her neighbor…”your son looks exactly like your husband.” To which the child’s mother retorted—-“nahin toh kya! Will he look like your husband”? It is all basically a matter of genes and heredity. It is quite possible that sometimes a person might look like his/ her grandparents or even uncles and aunts for that matter. After all there are genes which are common among blood relations?. I think every one of us would have had such an experience in our life. In fact I remember when I was in school many of my teachers used to take my mom to be my older sister. (I used to take it as a compliment for her that she was looking very young and she was very young too back then).

Rakesh Roshan, a struggling actor of his time turned a producer mainly because he was struggling to get roles in movies of other producers. The first movie of his production house called Filmkraft was “Aapke Deewaane”(1979). This movie flopped at the box office and that plunged Rakesh Roshan into serious financial troubles. He took great cares while proucing his next movie. He took a tried and tested story that had tasted box office success in another language and he sought to replicate that success in Hindi. The original movie was “Subhodayam”(1980), a Telugu movie which was remade into Hindi as “Kaamchor”(1982). K Vishwanath, who directed the Telugu original, directed the Hindi remake as well.

‘Daakiyaa daak laaya!! Daakiyaa daak laaya!!’
No, I was not that much aware of this song in my childhood when I was a school going child, but I remember the characteristic ringing of the ‘cycle bell’ which signalled the arrival of the ‘Postman’ on our door steps.

So 2015 comes to an end. We have had a very eventful year on the blog. Reached many milestones. Many artists reached centuries and some had their thousands and two thousands. Many contributors have posted multiple centuries. But Atulji still remains the man who is the whole and soul sutradhar of this wonderful place in CYBERLAND. If it was not for his encouragement we would all still be waiting for his time and our farmaishes to be fulfilled. If he had not allowed us- his blog followers -to write our thought with our favourite songs it would not have been possible to read gems from enlightened souls like Arunkumar Deshmukhji and Bharat Upadhyayji and Shenoyji and Sudhirji. I can think of our blog as a kind of workplace where each person specializes in a particular field. Long live such a well oiled machinery!!!! Also in the month of November we had our annual panchis (birds) returning home and a few of us got together in Bangalore (of course we are waiting for the Ankhon Dekha Haal from our able commentator Rajaji).

Hullo to all in Atuldom
If November was the month of many Miss Indias-turned- actresses ‘ birthdates then December will be proud to call itself the month of actors who are/were superstars. The list has Dharamendra, Shatrughan SInha, Dilip Kumar, Raj Kapoor, Govinda, Anil Kapoor, Salman Khan & Rajesh Khanna. (Disclaimer to all those who want to correct this list: I have chosen to mention only those actors who are/were superstars. The anniversary list page on our blog mentions around 24 male birthdays.) Dharamendra turned 80 a few days back; Shatrughan Sinha turned 70; Dilip Saab turned 93 yesterday; Raj Kapoor would have been 91 in 15 days from now; Govinda will turn 52; Anil Kapoor 59; Salman Khan 50 and Rajesh Khanna would have been 73. Phew! Thats a lot of statistics! Let me wish those whose birthdates I missed a very Belated Happy Birthday. {Isn’t that what we do when we miss some friend’s birthday; wish belatedly ;-)}
