Entertaining Sales Pitch Songs – 10
—————————————————–
[Note of Apology: This write up has been in the making since two nights, including the “telephonic interview”. Apologies that I was not able to post it before midnight yesterday. But then the thought comes – it is still 19th July somewhere in the world. Ah yes, our Khyati Ben in Los Angeles, USA, is still working through the 19th. So in a ‘relative’ way, this post is still on time. A brief summary of the celebration events covered herein – seventh anniversary for the blog, 11,300th song posted, and the completion of the planned ‘Entertaining Sales Pitch Songs’ series. Read on.]
[Note of Apology 2: With due apologies to Atul ji, for having taken some liberties in narrating certain aspects of his household. I am very sure the permission towards these liberties are/will be granted, even though the same has not yet been formally requested 😉 ]
Einstein has said, and he must have been quoted on this many million times by now, that ‘time is relative’. There are a variety of different explanations and discourses on this single statement, depending on the perspective or the branch of science or maths, or for that matter, any other subject, that one is considering. There is a very interesting anecdote connected with this statement. Once a newspaper reporter asked Einstein to explain in simple terms, what is the meaning of the phrase ‘time is relative’. And Einstein, without going into any mathematical or philosophical explanations, gave the following response. He said – consider the situation when someone is holding your feet to the fire. In such a circumstance, a passage of even 5 seconds would seem as if an hour has passed. Then again, think of a situation, when you are sitting and talking ‘sweet nothings’ with your beloved. Then, after an hour has passed, it would seem to you as if just maybe five minutes have gone by. That is what makes time relative. 🙂

Today’s song is from film Khazanchi-58. It is a very interesting and foot tapping song by Asha Bhonsle-The Inimitable.
For senior readers of this Blog, the name Khazanchi may ring a bell and they may remember the iconic film Khazanchi of the 1941, made by Pancholis in Lahore. That film had changed the HFM for ever and freed it from the rut of Theatrical, classical, boring songs, which actually sounded the same despite being from different films !

Club dance in night club-it was a genre of song that began in early 1950s and became very popular. The song would typically be sung by Geeta Dutt or Asha Bhonsle and it would be picturised on a female dancer. She would be watched by shady looking characters up to no good and scheming against others present in the gathering. 🙂

“Chaalbaaz” appears to be quite a popular title for Hindi movies. Movies with this title were released at an almost uniform interval of nearly one decade each, starting from 1958. We have had movies called Chaalbaaz released in 1958, 1969, 1980 and 1989.

Today’s date is an important date. Two very unique artists share this date as their birth anniversary. Two artists who have made some of the most memorable contributions to the Hindi film song and music. The two names are Sajjaad Husain Sb, music director par excellence and Suraiya, the singer with an enchanting voice and an unmatchable repertoire of renditions.

MISSING GEMS FROM THE GOLDEN 50s….Song No-14
————————————————–
Today’s song is from a 1958 film-Night Club.
With great determination and very much reluctantly, have moved away from the songs of 1957. As I mentioned I had shortlisted 17 songs from this year alone. It was ridiculous ! With songs from other years, the series would have become a marathon of about 30 odd songs. This is not acceptable to me. Stretching ONE theme for such a long time,in my opinion loses its meaning,charm and writer’s interest. We have already enjoyed 5 Gems from 1957. This much laxity was enough for 1957. The balance songs, I am sure,will find their way to this Blog,anyway.

This iconic song from ‘Pyasa” was posted in the blog way back in 2009. I just revisited the page. There is only one comment there, so I was in two minds whether to leave my take on this song there on the page or include them in this post . I choose the latter so here goes:

Today (5 january 2014) is the 33rd death anniversary of C Ramchandra (12 january 1918-5 january 1982). He was one of the earlier pioneers of HFM and his contributions in enriching and adding variety to it is second to none. He one one the earlier music directors to adopt western music in HFM. And at the same time, he also composed songs based on folk music as well as those based on classical music. And he was a decent singer as well who sang over one hundred songs as a playback singer. And he could deliver under very tight schedules. He composed all the songs of “Aazaad” (1955) in just a few days and that too without compromising on their quality.
