Today’s song is from an obscure, forgotten film ‘ Golkunda ka Qaidi-1954.

When this film was released in Hyderabad, I was still in High school. In those days, in Hyderabad state, in addition to the routine subjects in the school, for the 10th standard, there used to be a novel subject called ” Non-Detail “. There used to be a world famous novel, drama,travelogue or a Biography taught in this subject. The purpose was to acquaint the students with the top class literature of the world and cultivate the habit of reading extra-curricular famous books. I don’t think that this was practiced in any other state of India. This truly helped the students to inculcate interest in reading books other than their curriculum.

This date 50 years ago (15 March 1975- 15 March 2025)

Today is 15 March 2025. It means that the date 50 years ago was 15 March 1975.

If one asked me what I was doing on 15 march 1975, I would have drawn a blank. But if someone informed me what major event took place on 15 march 1975 then I would be able to tell what I was doing that day.

I came to know through some online articles that 15 march 1975 was the date when India won the final of World cup Hockey and became world cup champion for the first (and till now only) time.

The film’s title, ‘Fanney Khan’ (2018) with its star cast created interest in me when the film was formally announced. Just as the name ‘Natwarlal’ is identified with a conman, ‘Fanney Khan’ is identified with a man who boasts of his high achievements but in reality, others do not consider him as such. However, in the teaser of ‘Fanney Khan’ (2018), the meaning of ‘Fanney Khan’ has been explained in the context of the film as ‘someone who is an artist, a musician, a dreamer or even a complete idiot’. My interest in the film waned on reading the adverse reviews of the film after the film got a theatrical release on August 4, 2018. After a gap of nearly six years of the film’s release, I am liking a couple of songs from this film. So, I watched the film on a video sharing platform. It is nearly six months after I watched the film, I thought of writing an article on the film covering one of the songs I liked.

Hullo Atuldom

Just heard this absolutely melodious Holi song in the voice of Shreya Ghoshal which I felt should find a place in this blog.

It is from a recent film- “Begum Jaan” which released in 2017 (already 8 years). It was directed and co-written by National Film Award-winning director Srijit Mukherji in his Hindi directional debut and produced by Mukesh Bhatt, Vishesh Bhatt and Play Entertainment. The film is co-produced by Sakshi Bhatt and Shree Venkatesh Films with executive producer Kumkum Saigal. Lyrics, additional screenplay and dialogues have been penned by Kausar Munir and Rahat Indori. Anu Malik was the music director of the 6 songs that were sung by Asha Bhonsle, Shreya Ghoshal, Kavita Seth, Sonu Nigam, Rahat Fateh Ali Khan, Srijit Singh, Kalpana Patowary, Altamash Faridi, and Anmol Malik (Anu Malik’s daughter).

Today (14 March 2025) is Holi, the festival of colours.

The legend of Holi is known to all Indians. The name of the festival Holi is derived from the name of Holika, the asuri who tried to help her brother Hiranyakashyap in his bid to kill his Vishnu Bhakt son Prahlad who would refuse to acknowledge his father as the supreme God.

This film has a historical value, in the sense that this was one of the last films of Music Director Ghulam Haider in India. He had recorded his last song of Lata for his film.
