Today’s special post marks the 18400th song to be posted on the blog. It is being posted on 20th July 2024 which marks 52 years since the honey voiced Geeta Dutt left for her heavenly abode, too early at the age of just 41 years old leaving behind three children and a legacy that can never be forgotten by music lovers.

This post also marks her 1001st song to be posted on the group. We normally combine artists century songs with the blog’s century songs but we had erred in counting Geeta Dutt songs in the blog and She was already on 1000 songs. So this song is 1001st song of hers (sort of like a shagun) to mark the 18400th song on the blog.

Geeta Dutt is the fifth playback singer and 10th artist to complete 1000 songs in the blog. Lata, Rafi, Asha Bhonsle, Kishore Kumar are the other playback singers with 1000 plus songs in the blog. Two music directors duos (Shankar Jaikishan, Laxmikant Pyarelal) and three lyricists (Rajinder Krishan, Majrooh Sultanpuri, Anand Bakshi) are the other artists with 1000 plus songs in the blog.

Today is 19 July 2024. It was on this date in 2008 that this blog took its first tentative step by publishing its first offering which was Mile na phool to kaanton se dosti kar li.

I was toying with the idea of this blog where I would give my comments of Hindi movie songs. I was somewhat inspired by Khushwant Singh, who would give comments on various matters in his weekly column “with malice towards one and all”. 🙂

Today, 19 July 2024, is a special day for the blog. It was on this date 16 years ago that this blog had come into existence with its debut post “Miley Na Phool To Kaanton Se Dosti Kr Li” on 19 July 2008. We have come a long way in the blog from that small beginning. On this occasion, we will have quite a few posts today to celebrate the occasion. Keep watching this blog throughout the day.

Ah, before anything about this song, the important start to this day is the Congratulations that must be given today, to all the readers of this blog, to all the members of this musical bandwagon, and most importantly, to dear dear Atul ji. Today, we begin the 17th year of this wondrous and overwhelming musical journey, that Atul ji had initiated 16 years ago. The year was 2008, and on the 19th July of that year, Atul ji had made the first post on this blog.

Today 19th July’2024 is the sixteenth birthday anniversary of this wonderful blog. And this is a big occasion for us ‘likeminded music lovers’. This also call for a big ‘celebration’ today. I would like to thank our team member Mahesh ji who posted a message in the ‘WhatsApp group’ giving an ‘alert’ to all members for this occasion. It is not that I do not remember it, but sometimes we need reminders (as it is usual with me nowadays to forget ‘things’ and remembering it a bit later 🙂 , hotaa hai , hotaa hai …

‘Savera’ (1942) was directed by Virendra C Desai for Bombay Cinetone Limited, Bombay. The movie had Arun Ahuja, Shobhna Samarth, Yakub, Nirmala Devi, Gharpure, Brij Mala, Nagendra etc in it.

This ‘social’ movie had 12 songs in it. All these songs are rare songs and are difficult to locate. One song has been covered in the blog so far.

Here is the second song from ‘Savera’ (1942) to appear in the blog. This song is described as a chorus song (समूह गान) in HFGK. As I listened carefully, to this song, I could make out that it has at least two distinct female voices in addition to chorus. One of the voice sounds like Nirmala Devi to me. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the identity of the voices.

Today 18 july 2024 is the remembrance day of Rajesh Khanna. I know (thanks to media coverage) that he passed away on this date, but it still comes as a huge surprise to me to realise that 12 years have gone by since that date. How time flies. It seems like yesterday when I was listening to Binaca geetmala final on the last wednesday of 1971, when almost every song that got played was picturised on Rajesh Khanna, including the number one song. Then I realise that 1971 was 53 years ago. More than half a century ago. The world has changed considerably from those days.

(12th Remembrance Anniversary Day of Rajesh Khanna – 18th July’2024)

Today on the occasion of actor Rajesh Khanna’s 12th Remembrance Anniversary we pay our tributes to him by posting songs from the movies he acted in.

In this post I am presenting a song from the ‘1990’ movie ‘Swarg’. Trying to recollect now, I think this was the last movie of Rajesh Khanna which I watched in the theatres. I was staying at Kota (Rajasthan), and we had watched this movie on a holiday with colleagues from the company I was working in. Later on, as I progressed in my professional career, I had to shift to Bareilly (UP) where I stayed from 1999 to 2004. During this period the movie ‘Aa Ab Laut Chalen 1999’ was released, but I do not remember why I failed to watched it at that time. Subsequently I watched some movies of Rajesh Khanna on TV or on various channels. The latest Rajesh Khanna movies (for me) that I watched a few months ago were ‘Ajnabi-1974’ and ‘Amar Prem-1971’.
