Remembering IS Johar on the anniversary of his passing away on 10th March.
I S Johar, the redoubtable and simply irrepressible personality of the Hindi cinema world is well known for his versatility, his topicality, and his penchant for being in the news for a variety of reasons. Whether it be multiple marriages or open support for male sterilization, he was a strongly opinionated person, with emphatic views, and yet and aloof and a suave demeanor. He is also known to be a very well read person, and his ‘Question Box’ in the magazine Filmfare, was popular for many years.

Ravi’s debut film was Vachan (1955) but I first came to know about him through the songs of Chaudhvin Ka Chaand) (1960). He was music director for many successful films like Gumrah (1963), Waqt (1965), Khandaan (1965) Do Badan (1965), Kaajal(1965), Phool Aur Patthar (1966), Aankhen (1968) to quote a few. He was one of the popular music directors of Hindi films produced in the South. He wrote the popular song ‘cat mane billi’ for Dilli Ka Thug (1958). From 70s onwards, his musical assignments started declining and by later part of 80s, he was almost retired from the Hindi film industry. With his demise, we have lost one more veteran music director of the golden era of Hindi filmsongs.
May his soul rest in peace.

Life is often likened to a journey in Hindi movie songs. This is one comparison that I find quite appropriate. In fact, many other activities during our lifetimes can also be likened to a journey. For instance, this blog is indeed much like a journey. I have often described it as a musical bandwagon that is going on and on, adding fellow passengers on the way and passing milestones after milestones.

Sometimes when I think back at how my taste in movies and songs has changed since I was a young boy, I can hardly believe that I’m the same person who, way back in the 70s, used to squirm in my seat whenever I’d hear one of those Lata Mangeshkar solos. 😉
