Ameen Sayani (21 December 1932- 20 February 2024) recently left for the heavenly abode on 20 february 2024. It goes without saying that Ameen Sayani was easily one of the most important personalities in the field of HFM. Instead of coming up with a hastily prepared article as a tribute to Ameen Sayani, I thought that I should pay him a tribute by discussing Binaca geetmala, a programme that was a musical phenomenon of our times. When we think of Ameen Sayani, we think of Binaca geetmala and vice versa.

Today’s song is from a Romantic cum Mystery film – Apradhi-1949.

Although HFGK labels it as a ‘Social’ film, I found that this film is half-way through a Romantic film and the second half is full of Mystery, hence I called it a Romantic cum Mystery film.

Today’s song is from a semi Mythological film, Maya Bazar-1949.

I said ” Semi Mythological” film and there is a reason for it. Both Ramayan and Mahabharat are more than 5000 year old. Since generations,Indians have been infatuated with the various stories from these sacred books. Actually, Mahabharat is 4 times bigger than Ramayan. Ramayan contains stories of Loyalty, Obedience, righteous behaviour. Ideal Human Qualities, war against evil, Ideal democracy and good Just Governance. In short-everything that is ideal and good.

Hullo Atuldom

6th February 2022 followers of Indian music, across the genres of Bhav-geet, Film Sangeet, Bhajans and any other that we can think of, lost the most accomplished, sought after, loved (& any other add-ons that we know of) singer. She went by the name Lata Mangeshkar fondly addressed as Lata Didi by the multitude of her followers. She was the go-to voice (a modern day term for first choice) of all music composers for their debut films – remember ‘ghar aaja ghir aayi’ RD Burman, ‘Parasmani’ & its songs which was the first released film of Laxmi- Pyare. Even Madan Mohan is said to have approached Lata Mangeshkar to sing for his debut film ‘Aankhen’ but could get her into the recording room only for his next ‘ Adaa’ which released in 1951.
