Hullo Atuldom

There is a saying “That Birds Of A Feather Flock” together.

This space in cyberworld that goes by the name “ATULSONGADAY.ME” is where some birds or lovers of music of the genre called “Film Sangeet” congregate. The main aim initially, was to appreciate the efforts of one man called Atul who got the idea of compiling songs which he thought were important to him & were from his ‘List of Favourites’.

He began the journey on 19th July 2008 with this post. It was a short post but gave absolutely accurate lyrics of a song written by Kaifi Azmi & composed by Roshan. There were 13 posts in that July, that is the blog lived up to its name of “SONGADAY”.

During 1970s, when I was in my teens, I used to maintain records of cricket. Nowadays, we have access to cricket records with the click of a few buttons on computer or mobile phones but that was not the case 50 odd years ago. At about the same time, I also started noting down the lyrics of Hindi movie songs that I liked. Those days were pre HFGK days when we had no idea how many movie songs were created by then. The claims of 25000 plus songs and 28000 songs by individual singers were entertained and published even in Guiness Book of world records those days !

Hullo Atuldom

It is 13 years since the passing of the first Superstar of Hindi cinema. I shall hold back the adjectives that are normally showered on this ICON who had a way to charm the audiences. His smile, emoting eyes etc. had the film viewing public, specially the female viewers swooning all over him, his images and even his CARS. A kind of mania no other actor has managed to replicate since then. He walked into their hearts riding an open top jeep, singing a song composed by S.D. Burman, in the voice of Kishore Kumar. Though that was not his first foray into films.

Let me first clarify that we are remembeing actor/producer Rajesh Khanna who veered towards politics (he contested the 1991/1992 Lok Sabha elections & won the ’92 Bye-election) briefly.
He was a winner of the 1965 All India Talent Contest, organised by United Producers and Filmfare magazine. Actors turned filmmakers Subhash Ghai & Dheeraj Kumar were also contestants in that year.

If one looks at professions, we find that different professions have enjoyed popularity during different times. As new inventions were made, new professions came about. The profession of film actors, technicians etc were created when film making started. Singers have been there in the past as well but they typically used to be patronised in royal court. with the invention of gramophone recording, singers’ songs could be recorded and played even at remote locations where the singer would never go. That way this invention revolutionised the spread of music. As Radio was invented, these records could be played on radio stations and the same songs could reach a vast audience who did not need to possess these records themselves. So Radio, along with records, enabled dissemination of music, as well as news etc at a level that was revolutionary in human history.
