Today’s song is from a 85 year old film Haar jeet-1940.

I find so many similar film titles in the film index that sometimes I feel like taking up this issue also as a “Same title Confusions” problem. Luckily there is one trick to clarify among these similar titles and that is its year of making ! Therefore it is necessary that whenever a film is mentioned, its year must also be mentioned to avoid the possible ‘Same Title Confusion’ ! There were 4 films of this title made in 1940, 1954, 1972 and 1990. In addition, I also found 2 more Har jeet films which were left incomplete.

1940 was a period when New Theatres, the makers of Haar jeet-1940, were in top speed and in its Golden period. The film was directed by Amar Mullick. Music was by R.C.Boral-considered as the ‘Grand Old man’ of film music in India. His contribution to the film industry is unforgettable.

The Holy Festival of Chhathh Pujaa is going on at present. This festival is dedicated to ‘Chhathh Maiyyaa’ (Mother Chhathh) and ‘Surya Devta’ (Lord Sun). ‘Chhathh Pujaa’ is one of the biggest festivals of India which was confined to the states of Bihar, Jharkhand, Uttar Pradesh, and some parts of Uttarakhand in the past. But nowadays now it is observed all over the country whereever people from these states have migrated for job and cannot make it to their native places. Moreover those who have settled elsewhere in India have started to observe it in their new residences instead of going back to their original native places on this occasion.

Hullo Atuldom

The serial “Wagle Ki Duniya – Nayi Peedhi Naye Kissey” was a serial I loved watching for its assorted characters, that lived in a apartment complex of North Mumbai. One of the characters, who happened to be a neighbour, friend & almost like family to the central (to the plot) Wagle Family- Daksesh Joshipura who is the secretary of the society. He had a one-liner every time he appears on the screen:- “I am Daksesh Joshipura, honourable secretary of the society & 1st Citizen of Sai Darshan Heights”.

I am sure the followers of the blog maybe wondering where I am leading to.
