This new year 2023 has seen lots and lots of debutant movies being introduced to the blog. As many as seven movies made their debuts in the blog in this new year. One of the movies had just one song in it. So its debut coincided with its getting YIPPEED as well. We did not have a “proper” YIPpying of the movie so far.

On our blog so far we have 3820 songs of Lata Mangeshkar already posted. But still there are many songs of her yet to come on the blog. And if one thinks that the remaining songs must be from later years of Hindi Cinema then that is not the case.
Music lovers and our regular readers on the blog are well aware of this and when they notice such song they bring it to our attention.

Like the today’s song which is from the movie ‘Sinhaldweep Ki Sundari-1960’. Our regular reader Shri. Deepak Patwardhan ji had sent me ‘farmaaish’ for this song few months back. It has been delayed from my side to present it here. Now, trying to get back into rhythm of the blog, I take this opportunity to present a Lata Song from the above movie today on the blog.

8th September – Birthday of Asha Bhonsle
————————————————————-

There are 25 songs tagged as ‘Tasweer’ (https://atulsongaday.me/category/tasweer-song/) song in the blog. Some of the stellar songs have missed the tag and have given a miss to the tag of ‘Tasweer’. I have listed a few such songs which I can refer to off-hand:

Tasweer Banaata Hoon Tasweer Nahin Banti

Ye Zulf Kaisi Hai

I feel as if some more significant songs are missing from my list above as well as the tagged page. So, the list is incomplete.

A ‘tasveer’ is something which tells a story. Be it a still image, a painting, a motion picture or mural. Imaginary or factual, reflection in reverse or converse. Not always needing a camera to capture it, just a glance is indelible sometimes. Moments captured in memory forever.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 83
————————————————————————————–

This date ten years ago (viz 25 August 2012) saw six songs from six different movies getting covered in the blog.

Here are the details:-

Blog post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
6509 Badi mushqil hai tumhe bhool jaana Ham Hain Raahi Pyaar Ke(UR)(1960) 4 songs covered out of 7 songs
6510 Main pankhh lagaa ke udd jaaun Armaan (1953) Movie YIPPEED by now
6511 Dost dost na raha pyaar pyaar na raha Sangam(1964) Movie YIPPEED by now
6512 Main to ek khwaab hoon Himalay Ki God Mein(1964) Movie YIPPEED by now
6513 Jeene de ye duniya Lava(1985) One song covered out of 7
6514 Phir chhidi raat baat phoolon ki Baazaar (1982) Movie YIPPEED by now

It can be observed from the above that four movies, whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago have since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with two movies that are not yet YIPPEED so they are eligible for Blog Ten YEar Challenge today on 25 August 2022.

Today’s song is from the film ‘Road No. 303’ (1960).

This film was special in many respects. Let’s start with it’s title. Among the total of 3240 Talkie films made in the first 30 years of Hindi films (1931-1960), only 19 Hindi films had titles which actually had numbers in their Titles. The first one to have a numerical figure in its title was Miss 1933 (1933) and the last one to have it was today’s film Road No. 303 (1960). Just for information of our readers, there were 7 such film titles in the 1930’s (total films 924), only 4 such film titles in the 1940’s (total films 1191) and 8 such film titles in the 1950’s (total films 1125). There were hundreds of film titles having figures in words, like ‘Ek Thi Ladki’, ‘Do Gunde’, ‘Teen Batti Char Rasta’ etc. but numbers in titles were a novelty.

Today’s song is a Non Film Song (NFS), sung by Jagmohan Bakshi.

In the field of NFS (Non-Film Song), most people know about Jagmohan Sursagar but very few would know about Jagmohan Bakshi. At Least I have come across only this NFS song by Bakshi so far and that too thanks to record collector Zafar Bhai who has uploaded this song. Music lovers, by now, know Zafar Bhai as one who has been uploading some rare songs from obscure and famous films, as well as a few NFS too. We, in ASAD, know him as a friend of our friend Sudhir ji.
