Mukesh and his Composers – 44
Basant Prakash was the younger brother of famed composer Khemchand Prakash.
While Khemchand Prakash became immortal due to the popularity of songs in Mahal (1949) and among the pioneers of HFM, Basant Prakash is hardly remembered despite composing about a dozen films albeit a few were with other composers.
Whenever Basant Prakash’s name is taken, mention of his short stint with the famous movie Anarkali (1953) is inevitable. It is said that Filmistan’s S. Mukherji first approached C. Ramchandra to compose the film’s music. C. Ramchandra insisted on all songs to be sung by Lata Mangeshkar. Since Geeta Roy was the preferred singer for the producer, Basant Prakash was approached who started work on the film.

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #
————————————————————————
This musical bandwagon i.e. our blog ‘atulsongaday…’ recently clocked the 19500th post and this was also a special post for another reason i.e. it marked the 3400th Rafi song on this blog.
That leads us to think about the Rafi songs that are yet to be presented here. We have a long way to go for that. The total number of Rafi songs for films are 4846 (as mentioned in the statistics page of the blog). So we have another 1446 Rafi songsleft to be covered in the blog provided they are all available for us to savour.

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #
————————————————————————
The song in this post is from the movie ‘Watan Se Door-1968’. I have never watched this movie and I guess that it is not available on any internet platform too. But I had presented a song from this movie earlier here on the blog. And how I remember this song and how I get to know which movie it was is a long story which I have mentioned in my post here on the blog with the song ‘kaisaa jaadoo daalaa maa banarasee roomaal waalaa’. This song was posted on the blog on 19.07.2015. Before that our Sudhir jee had presented two songs from this movie here on the blog as per following details.
1) mehfil mein naheen to dil mein sahee – 10.11.2011
2) pyaare pyaare tere andaaz ke qurbaan gaye – 19.11.2011
When I presented the first song from this movie I didn’t have the copy of Geet Kosh Vol-IV (1961-1970) with me and therefore I could not give the details of movie in that post. However our in-house encylopeadia Shree Arunkumar jee had given the story of this movie while commenting on the first post of Sudhir jee.

ye ilm kaa sauda, ye risaale, ye kitaaben
ek shaks ki yaadon ko bhulaane ke liye hain
—– Jaan Nisaar Akhtar
The meaning of the sher is that these exchange of knowledge, these journals, these books are meant to forget memories of a person. But I write this article for remembering today, Jaan Nisaar Akhtar on his 49th Remembrance Day. He was essentially a poet but circumstances forced him to write songs for films when an arrest warrant was issued against him in Bhopal being the follower of leftist ideology. He went underground eventually landing in Mumbai in 1949 leaving behind his wife and two small children. So, to manage the family, he started writing songs for Hindi films.
Syed Jaan Nisaar Hussain Rizvi (18/02/1914 – 19/08/1976), popularly known as Jaan Nissar Akhtar was born in Gwalior. His father, Muztar Khairabadi, a well-known Urdu poet was the Magistrate in the State of Gwalior. After completion of the matriculation from Gwalior, Jaan Nissar Akhtar joined Aligarh Muslim University and completed M.A. in Urdu. He returned to Gwalior and got a job as a lecturer in Victoria College. In 1943, he got married to Safia, sister of Urdu poet, Mazaj Lucknawi. In 1947, he shifted to Bhopal where he joined Hamidia College as Head of Urdu and Persian Department. In Bhopal, he joined the Progressive Writers’ Movement.
