Continuing to follow the progress of Mukesh, as we see his development through the first decade of his career. The year is 1948. Having made a debut in 1942, by the end of 1947, Mukesh had to his credit already, 42 songs from 21 films. The first and significant turning point in his career was already behind him – the iconic “Dil Jaltaa Hai. . .”.

The Voice of Mukesh #24

We come to 1948 now. From the previous years, i.e. from 1942 to 1947, all songs of Mukesh, as per current records, are now posted on this blog. With one exception. I am still trying to trace the Mukesh – Shamshad Begum duet from ‘Laakhon Mein Ek’, the one song still to be posted for 1947.

I have been dithering for the last two days on the issue of which song post to send, as my 100th post. Now that I have decided on a song which is old enough and a Rafi solo, and melodious and touching as I wanted just such a song for this occasion. For some reason I have suddenly become tongue tied, or key board tied. Not that key boards ever get tied up like our human minds or tongues. But they do give us trouble, whenever we treat them badly. Only last week, it suffered a blow, with a steel bowl. And the key ‘ e ‘ came loose. It just wouldn’t stick in its place, I had all sorts of trouble in completing the last write up. Ideally I should have tried to complete the write up without using ‘e’. It is possible, as I read a paragraph on facebook, completely devoid of the alphabet ‘e’. Maybe next time this sort of thing happens, with a little used alphabet”s key than, it should be worth trying.

Recently I watched GHAR KI IZZAT (1948) on YT. The film was produced under the banner of Murli Movietone and directed by Ram Daryani. The star cast included Dilip Kumar and Mumtaz Shanti in the lead role with Gope, Manorama, Dixit, Jeewan, Gulab, Suleman etc in the supporting roles. The melodramatic story of the film reminded me of some of the Hindi films produced from the South in the 50s and 60s.
