#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
———————————————————————

‘AANKHIN DEKHI-1978’ seems to be an obscure movie of its time as I could not find any video of this movie or its songs on internet. Not much information is avilable about the story of this movie or its trivia, except the details given in Geet Kosh Vol-V (1971-1980). Rajinder Singh Bedi ji was the director of this movie. It was a ‘Dachi Films, Bombay’ presentation and it was passed by Censor Board on 18.12.1978.

There has been very few Hindi films produced with the main theme of Indian classical dances. As far as I know, the first Hindi film with Indian classical dances as the main theme was Uday Shankar’s ‘Kalpana’ (1948) in which his wife, Amla Shankar was in the lead role of a classical dancer. This was followed by V Shantaram’s ‘Jhanak Jhanak Paayal Baaje’ (1955) in which his then future wife, Sandhya was in the lead role of a classical dancer along the Gopikrishna. Another Hindi film I remember is ‘Naache Mayuri’ (1986) which was more like a biographical film on the classical dancer, Sudha Chandran who lost her leg but continued her dancing career after lot of efforts. In this film, Sudha Chandran acted as herself.

There may be a few more films with the omnibus dance theme. I was aware of the film, ‘Paayal Ki Jhankaar, (1980) but, until recently, I did not know that this film was also made with the main theme of Indian classical dances. Perhaps, my mind about this film may have been prejudiced by another film with the same name released in 1968.

# Singer Yesudas’s Birthday #
————————————————————

Today 10th January 2025 is the eighty-fifth birthday of Singer Yesudas (born on 10.01.1940). As of now the statistics page on the blog doesn’t mention the total number of songs Yesudas has sung for Hindi movies. I am sure we will be adding these details soon with one of his songs here. In one of my earlier post I had given the filmography of Yesudas from his debut in Hindi films up to the year 1980. This figure has 84 songs from 52 films. So far, we have not even touched these 84 songs of him on the blog. That means we still have a long way to go before we can cover aa Yesudas songs. Today on his 85th birthday we have already covered two songs sung by him. I am adding one more to his tally today.

# Singer Yesudas’s Birth Anniversary #
————————————————————

Today 10th January 2025 is the eighty-fifth birthday of Singer Yesudas (born on 10.01.1940). We will celebrate his occasion by covering a few songs sung by him. I have already presented one song from the 1980 movie ‘Maan Abhimaan’. In this post, I am presenting a song from the ‘1984’ movie ‘Ek Nayee Pahelee’. This is another song of Yesudas which I was longing to share here. All these years I had never watched this movie ‘Ek Nayee Pahelee’ and I watched it now on the new year day. However, I was aware of this song from this movie as it was played on radio for the promotion of this movie when it was being released in 1984.

This movie was passed by Censor Board on 27.02.1984. So, it must be around the summer of ‘1984’ when it was released in theatres around the place I was staying then. Because I have these memories of listening this song on radio of that summer season while sleeping out in the courtyard.

#Happy Birthday Yesudas #
——————————————

Today 10th January 2025 is the eighty-fifth birthday of Singer Yesudas (born on 10.01.1940). His voice is one of the special voices of the seventies which I love. I have given detailed account of the many songs sung by Yesudas and my memories associated with those songs in an earlier post.

Today on the occasion of Yesudas’ eighty-fifty birthday I am presenting a song from the seventies which is from the movie ‘Maan Abhimaan-1980’. Yesudas had sung two solo songs in this movie, both of which are great songs. One Yesudas songsong from the movie has already been covered on the blog on 10.01.2017.

Amol Palekar has mostly been identified with some of his ‘boy-next-door’ type of roles in Hindi films like ‘Rajnigandha’ (1974), ’Chhoti Si Baat’ (1976) ‘Chitchor’ (1976) ‘Gharonda’ (1977) ‘Golmaal’ (1979), Baaton Baaton Mein’ (1979) etc. In some of his interviews, he always claimed that he became the actor by accident, the producer by compulsion, the director by choice and artist (painter) by nature. Before debuting as an actor in Hindi films, Amol Palekar was deeply involved with experimental Marathi and Hindi theatres, both as an actor and a director. Even after his popularity as an actor had soared, he continued to get involved in the experimental theatres.
