“Mahua” (1969) was a reincarnation story and quite an ambitious one at that. Here the hero and heroine undergo not one, but two reincarnations each. It is obviously difficult to keep track of the comlicated plot, not just for the moviegoers, for for the moviemakers too. So the end result was a confused and confusing movie that duly flopped at the box office.

From the little I know about “Mahua” (1969), it was a story about re incarnation, but unlike say “Madhumati” (1958) and “Milan” (1967), the makers of this movie were not clear about what they wanted to present to the public. The movie finally ended up with a confused story line which was given a thumbs down by the movie goers.

The film songs of Mukesh do not even number 800, with the current research that is available, but it is still a great treasure. The voice behind these songs, this person, carries a link back into the soul itself – such is the power and the fascination in this voice. It would be a very tough job, to find a Mukesh song that one could say “naah, not worth the listen”. What maybe would seem lacking in numbers is more than made up by simply the quality of sound and the eminence of rendering.

“Beti” (1969) is a movie which had Sanjay Khan, Nanda, Kamini Kaushal, Kishor Sahu, Rajendra Nath in it. I have not seen this movie but it is my theory that a movie whose title included words like “Beti”, “Bhabhi”, “Bahu” etc tend to be a tales of women who are shown sacrifices just for the sake of it. I do not know whether I am correct in my assesment of this movie that I have made just by looking at the title and the starcast. I request our knowledgeable readers to help confirm/ refute my guess about this movie.

When I saw the lyrics “chal chal re naujawaan” in a song from “Ek Phool Do Maali” (1969), I was surprised. People may wonder why I should be surprised if I had watched the movie. Indeed I had watched the movie, but my selective memory ensures that I only recall the details of movie watched in my younger days and details of movies that I watched much later are not retained in my memory (not enough space in the memory, perhaps 🙂 ).

Greetings to all on the 5501st post for this blog. You may wonder, what is special that I am highlighting the 5501st post. Yes something special in this one. Readers may have noticed that over the past few days, Atul ji and I have been posting songs by N Dutta at a very fast pace. The reason of course was we planned to coincide the century post for N Dutta with the 5500th song on this blog. All was in order till Tuesday morning when browsing through the tags and stats, something occurred to me.

Regaining the memories of a song heard long back, I tried to locate it and tried to find more about it. Thankfully, I am able to find the audio posted on the YouTube. But then all other information is new to me. This lovely sound of a melancholic melody by Talat Mehmood, is a song from a film ‘Patthar Ke Khwaab’ (1969), a name that I encountered for the first time today. Pulling together information from Geet Kosh, I find this film is produced under the banner of Nagin Productions, and directed by Pal Premi. The main list of stars includes Mahipal, Parveen Choudhary, Sapru, Madhumati, Amarnath, Mohan Choti, Jeevankala etc.
