Today (25 March 2024) is the festival of Holi, the festival of colour.

The word Holi is derived from demoness Holika.

The tale of Holika and her relatives is quite interesting. According to legends, she was an Asuri who was the daughter of Kashyap and Diti. Rahu and Ketu were her sons.

Today’s song is from a costume film ‘Raj Pratigya’ (1958).

This is yet another film, with a story of King and Queen. I have seen this film and have its story with me. Otherwise also, the film’s title and the cast are a clear giveaway enough to declare this film as a Raja-Rani film. The only difference is, this film’s story is based on the background of 2 warring kingdoms, Magadh and Malawa, which existed in olden times in India. After seeing such films, one gets the answer why and how the Mughals or the Europeans could win in India and managed to rule it despite the population being majority Hindus and the rulers in a disciplined minority. The majority was busy fighting among themselves rather than with the invaders jointly !

Today’s song is from an imaginary costume film ‘Son of Sindbad’ (1958).

Alibaba, Alladin and Sindbad were the popular characters during our school days. Not only books of their stories but also films made on them were the targets of all children in those days. It was a thrilling experience to get a book on one of these Heroes, as a gift on “Happy Birthday” ! I am not very sure if today’s young children read these stories. I doubt if they even know these names. These boys seem to favour Harry Potter stories, while the young girls are lost on reading Mills and Boon novels, I suppose ! The big fat book ‘Stories of Arabian Nights’ was the most sought after book (in spite of 5 copies) in our school library. Stories of Alibaba, Alladin, Sindbad the sailor, Hatimtai, Gul Bakavali etc enchanted us.

Today’s song is from the film Raaj Tilak-1958.

It was a Gemini Pictures’ film, produced and directed by its owner, the successful, enterprising businessman S.S.Vasan. The Music Director was C.Ramchandra. All the songs were by P.L.Santoshi. For C.Ramchandra, this was possibly the last big banner film from the South. As such, the year 1958 was the worst year in his life, both professionally and in personal life as well.
