I am told by my daughter (don’t know how she keeps track of all this in between her tight schedule of finishing her projects etc) that today (15 april 2013) is Hasrat Jaipuri’s birthday. I am sure every one knows a lot about Hasrat Saab’s history, where he was born (Jaipur), his birth name (Iqbal Hussain). How he fell in love with a Hindu girl in his youth – the song “Yeh Mera Prem Patra Padhkar” was written for her (so says Wikipedia) which was later used in “Sangam” by Raj Kapoor.

I have thought up an idea of doing a series on ‘desert songs’. Unfortunately most of the famous desert songs are already posted, and I am left with a residue of songs from the 80’s only. I have myself written the post of the songs of ‘Laila Majnoon’ (1976) most of which are in the desert. I request readers to help me in this regard and provide the name of such songs picturized in the desert from 50’s and 60’s .

Kaise naache Mayuri
Posted on: September 21, 2012
“Naache Mayuri”(1986)” was a Hindi remake of the Telugu “Mayuri”(1984). These movies were based on the real life story of Sudha Chandran. Sudha Chandran, a dancing enthusiast, had lost one leg in an accident. But she braved all odds and used artifical limb (prosthetic ‘Jaipur foot’) and continued to pursue her first love viz. dancing and became a leading dancer. She was invited to perform in India as well as abroad. Her fame spread and she got offers to work in movies. Telugu movie “Mayuri” (1984) was made on her own life. This movie became a big success at the box office. It was subsequently dubbed into Malayalam and Telugu with the same title. Later on, this movie was remade into Hindi as “Naache Mayuri” (1986).

Most patriotic songs that have gone on to become immortal were created in 1960s when Bollywood was at its richest, when it came to singers, lyricists and music directors. Moreover, India was just a few years into independence those days and therefore the creators of these songs created them with feeling and passion.

“Chitthi” songs, viz songs where one feels nostalgic about one’s loved ones and waits for “chitthi” from them makes for some of the best and most memorable songs. I have posted one such song from 1970s viz. ” daakiya daak laaya”.
The song “daakiya daak laaya” from a 1977 movie called “Palkon ki chhaon mein” was quite a popular “chitthi” song, before it was upstaged by another song of this genre. This song ” chitthi aayi hai watan se chitthi aayi hai” from “Naam” (1986) touched the heart strings of the listeners as no chitthi song had ever done before.
