28 january 2023 saw song post number 17400 appearing on the blog. Today (25 february 2023) finds us reaching song post number 17500 on the blog.

Yes, this post is the 175th century post for the blog. It has come in 28 days, which equals the number of days taken for the previous century. So this year 2023 has seen two centuries, both clocked in 28 days apiece. It is a vast improvement over the average days taken for the blog centuries of last few years. We are still far off from the all time record of a century in 11 days (achieved in 2011) but things are looking up as far as Blog daily strike rate is concerned.

Hullo Atuldom

India is celebrating the 75th year of its Independence. Mumbai based Rajshri productions and distribution company is also celebrating its 75th year.

I am sure we have many knowledgeable followers in the blog who will give us information on how Rajshri took to making critically acclaimed films that were also commercially successful. Most of their films had stories that stressed on values, family ties, unity etc. and provided opportunity for family outings. I recall a cinema hall in Chembur, Mumbai was decked up, almost like a wedding hall, when Rajshri’s ‘Hum Aapke Hain Kaun’ was released and all of the outfits worn by its characters became a rage at that time.

I had mentioned it in my earlier posts that many songs which were unavailable on the internet in the past have become available in recent years. We sincerely hope that this trend continues. That gives us opportunities to bring all those gems of the yesteryears here on the blog.

Take for instance the movie ‘Veer Bajrang-1966’.

Hullo Atuldom

I must say that I am spoilt with choices for a song to go with this post. I checked our blog’s “List Of Songs- Moviewise” page and I can see many eligible movies whose song can be used.

I think I will take the easy way out and settle for one of the movies from the 1980s whose most differently (hatke as filmfolk would like to say) romantic song is yet to arrive on the blog. This song shows how beautiful a simple sari-clad lady can look. Post this every actress worth her name was ready to drape a saree and romance the camera on the condition that it gave them as much fame as the lady in this Sky-Blue saree achieved. Of course, through the 100+ years of Indian cinema, a saree was considered sign of a Bharatiya (to be understood as domesticated) Nari. There were the odd songs or situations where the lady used to get wet & the wet-saree would make the villain lust after her or the hero would get passionate with her (depending on who is with the lady in the scene).

The song being presented in this post is from the ‘Bhojpuri’ film titled ‘Laagi Nahin Chhoote Raam-1963’.

I got to listen to this song on ‘Vividh Bharati’ more than a month or two back. I fell in love with this song immediately. I do not remember to have listened to this song earlier. This song is a lovely duet song sung by Lata Mangeshkar and Talat Mahmood.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No. 28
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years back viz on 24 February 2013, six songs from six different movies (plus one NFS) were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Blog post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
7546 Mere geeton ka singaar ho tum Rafi NFS(1960) Non film song
7547 Jalne waale tujhko kyaa Gunjan(1948) 5 songs covered out of 9 by now
7548 Zindagi haseen hai zindagi se pyaar kar Ham Hain Raahi Pyaar Ke (1960) 5 songs covered out of 7 by now
7549 Chaayi re badariya Baradari (1955) Movie YIPPEED by now
7550 Piya bina piya bina Abhimaan(1973) Movie YIPPEED by now
7551 Bolo kya hamko dogey Chhupa Rustam(1973) 4 songs covered out of 7 by now
7552 Aisa toone chheda mujhko Tarzan and cobra(1987) Details about the number of songs unavailable

We observe from the above that two movies (out of six) whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (on 24 February 2013) have since been YIPPEED. That leaves us with four movies that are technically eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (24 february 2013).

#the Decade of Fourties – 1941 – 1950 #
————————————————————————

The song being presented with this post is from the movie ‘Dukhiyaari-1948’.

This movie had made its debut on the blog on 13.08.2014, and so far only five songs from this movie have been posted on this blog. Considering that this movie has twelve songs as mentioned in HFGK Vol-II (1941-1950) we are a long way off from getting all songs of this movie on board here on the blog. It is also quite possible that a few of the songs may not be available.
