#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Remembrance Day- Laxmichhaya)
——————————————-———————————————

Today 09th May’2023 is the ‘remembrance anniversary’ of yesteryears actress and dancer Laxmichhaya.

She was born on 07th January’1948 and she passed away on 09th May’2004.

She had acted in many movies, mainly in role of dancer or club dancer I guess. Though I am not going to list all her movies here, I would like to mention the movie ‘Mera Gaaon Mera Desh-1971’ in which I likde her role the most and it has been my favorite movie too.

Today as a tribute to her I am presenting a song from the movie ‘‘Ek Khilaadi Baawan Pattey-1972’.

‘Ek Khilaadi Baawan Pattey-1972’ was directed by Ravi Khanna for ‘Art India Movies, Bombay’. It was produced by Ashok Roy, one time associate of J. Omprakash ji, and this was his first film as a Producer.

Its cast includes Dev Kumar, Naqi Jahaan, Laxmi Chhaya, Jr. Mehmood, Mohan Choti, Sajjan, Dulari, Padma, C.S. Dubey, Brahm Bharadwaj, Satyen Kappu, Ravi Khanna, Master Manoj, Master Ravi, Baby Padmini, Sadhana Khote, Lata Arora, Virender, Nishan Singh, Sushila, Premji, Raj Narayan, June Maxworth and others.

Tarun Bose makes a friendly appearance in the film while Vinod Khanna had a ‘special role’ in the film.

‘Ek Khilaadi Baawan Pattey-1972’ has five songs penned by Hasrat Jaipuri and composed by Sonik- Omi (assisted by Raj Kumar and Uttam Singh). Asha Bhonsle has given her voice to four songs and one song is sung by Omi.

One song from this movie – the title song – has already been posted on the blog on 19.08.2015.

Today we listen to the second song from this movie which is picturised on Laxmichhaya. Asha Bhonsle is the singer and this song is a club dance song.

We can also see Dev Kumar, Vinod Khanna and many other artistes in the picturisation of this song. From the picturisation of the song we can guess that Laxmichhaya is singing this song to alert Dev Kumar to escape from the trap of Vinod Khanna who seems to be after his life.

Lyrics for the song are by Hasrat Jaipuri and music is composed by Sonik-Omi.

Let us enjoy this song now. ..

5404 Post No. : 17731

We all have heard of World Happiness Index. We have heard about it because this index gives India a very low rating. People in India who believe in this rating ironically do not believe in ratings that shows India in good light. On the other hand, there are people who wonder how India can be ranked so low when we see countries that appear in far more distress than India ranked higher than India.

There are not too many people who actually buckle down and try to go to the details of this world Happiness Index. Not even the media who report on this topic. I have been thinking of going to the depth of this World Happiness Index for quite some time but I was not able to find time. You see, people like me who are inherently happy most of the time cannot be easily persuaded to waste time analysing an Index that accuses you of belonging to a country whose population is unhappy. 🙂

Nevertheless, someone had to do the painful job of analysing this world Happiness Index. No one in India is seemingly interested so I have volunteered and I have done it. In this post, I will give my findings on this index.

World Happiness Index is published by “The Sustainable Development Solutions Network” of the UN. They release their annual report on 20 march which has been declared as International Day of Happiness.

The General Assembly of the United Nations in its resolution 66/281 of 12 July 2012 proclaimed 20 March the International Day of Happiness recognizing the relevance of happiness and well-being as universal goals and aspirations in the lives of human beings around the world and the importance of their recognition in public policy objectives.

The meeting was convened at an initiative of Bhutan, a country which recognized the supremacy of national happiness over national income since the early 1970s and famously adopted the goal of Gross National Happiness over Gross National Product.

World Happiness Index is compiled considering six characteristics to rank countries on overall happiness: GDP per capita, social support, life expectancy, freedom to make choices, generosity, and perception of corruption.

Factor Source data Remarks
GDP per capita World Bank /IMF figures Data can be considered objective
Social support Gallup polls Data is highly subjective as well be discussed later
Healthy Life expectancy WHO figures Data is objective
Freedom to make life choices Gallup polls Data is highly subjective as well be discussed later
Generosity Gallup polls Data is highly subjective as well be discussed later
Perception of corruption Gallup polls Data is highly subjective as well be discussed later

Let us discuss these factors in detail

Following two factors (out of six) can be considered Objective factors:-

Factor Maximum to Minimum range Remarks
GDP per capita 2.200 to 0.000 The GDP/capita is processed in a mathematically complicated mannner to arrive at figures where higher per capita nation gets assigned higher value. Luxembourg gets the highest value while Venezuela gets the lowest value
Healthy life expectancy 0.702 to 0.000 The life expectancy figure is processed in a mathematically complicated mannner to arrive at figures where country with higher life expectancy gets assigned higher value. Hongkong has the highest figure whereas Mozambique gets the lowest figure

I thought it was not possible to bungle in the above factors because figures for them are available on reputed sites. For example, GDP per capita is available on sites like World Bank, IMF etc. Likewise figures of Life expectancy are available on WHO site.

I notice that the country with the lowest GDP per capita in the Happiness chart is Venuzuela ! It defies logic. Venezuela per capita GDP is $ 7260 on PPP basis and $3460 on Nominal GDP basis in 2022. There are at least 50 countries behind Venezuela on GDP per capita basis. Such glaring error casts severe doubts on the authenticity of Happiness Index, at least for Venezuelans, if not for others. Had Venezuela’s rank been correct on GDP per capita basis, they would have ended up in top 30, instead of ending up at 89th position in the latest Happiness Index, (all other things remaining same).

I hope healthy life expectancy figures do not contain any such glaring errors.

The highest figure theoretically achievable for the above two factors is 2.200 + 0.702= 2.902. The lowest figure theoretically possible is 0.00. The actual highest achieved figures is 2.383 by Taiwan followed by USA of 2.370. So these two countries are the happiest if only GDP per capita and life expectancy rankings are considered. The actual lowest figures achieved on these two factors is 0.341 by Venezuela and 0.570 by Mozambique.
As discussed above, the faulty ranking of Venezuela in GDP per capita means that they end up at the very bottom when we add up its marks for the two factors.

As for India, India will be in 101th position with 1.411 marks. Pakistan with 1.238 will be at 109th position. Nepal 107th with 1.260. Bangladesh 97th with 1.487 marks. Sri Lanka 68th with 1.847 marks.

Now we come to the subjective factors. Unlike figures of GDP per capita and life expectancy which are collected and maintained by reputed world bodies with considerable experience and expertise, no well defined and accepted standards exist to measure the four subjective factors that form such a large part of World Happiness Index..Following are the four subjective factors that are considered while measuring happiness :-

Factor Maximum to Minimum range Remarks
Social support 1.620 to 0.000 Data is highly subjective as will be discussed later Iceland gets the highest rating Afghanistan the lowest
Freedom to make life choices 0.772 to 0.000 Data is highly subjective as will be discussed later .Finland scores the highest Afghanistan the lowest
Generosity 0.422 to 0.000 Data is highly subjective as will be discussed later. Indonesia scores the highest Georgia the lowest
Perception of corruption 0.561 to 0.000 Data is highly subjective as will be discussed later. Singapore scores the highest viz it is least corrupt-Romania considers itself the most corrupt

How were these figures arrived at ? Based on Gallup world polls (GWP). What are gallup polls? Gallup is an organisation that supposedly approaches a few people and ask them simple YES/ No questions. Based on the reply, the countries’ Social Support, Freedom to make choices, generosity and perception of corruption are measured and entire country gets branded. It is basically the opinion of the people polled. We know that opinions are not facts, but this World Happiness Index tries to pass off opinion of a few people as facts about a country.

Let us see what questions are asked. Under social support, the question anked is “If you were in trouble, do you have relatives or friends you can count on to help you whenever you need them, or not?”. The national average of the binary responses (0=no, 1=yes) to the Gallup World Poll (GWP) question is taken. In “social support”. India ranked an abysmal 121st is social support, but Pakistan and Bangladesh were even behind India as 123 and 132. Perhaps all these people are watchers of sad Hindi movies where society does not support the love birds. 🙂 I was under the impression that Asian countries with better social and family ties offers way more support to an individual in need than in Western countries where these ties are quite weak. Nevertheless, what people say in this poll matters in the happiness ranking , not the reality.

Under generosity, the question asked was -“Have you donated money to a charity in the past month?”. If the ansewr is yes, then the people of that counry are considered generous other wise miser. The fact that there are ways of being generous other than donating money, such as helping out by devoting time and effort, feeding hungry people free of cost etc does not count towards generosity as far as this happiness index “generosity” factor is concerned. When we look at the chart, we find that Nepal (one of the least developed countries in the world) which even today is getting loan from IMF is ranked at number 26 in Generosity. They consider themselves far more generous than G-7 countries with money like Germany (57), France (113), Japan(135) etc even though they do not lend any money to any other country. All they had to do was just to reply YES to the relevant generosity related poll and they leapfrogged most of the actually generous countries of the world. Likwise Pakistan (ranked 65) is considered more generous than China (88). 🙂 And we thought otherwise. 🙂

Freedom to make life choices is the national average of binary responses to the GWP question “Are you satisfied or dissatisfied with your freedom to choose what you do with your life?” Reply to this question throws up some hilarious rankings. Nepalese, who have hardly any options to chose from, feel that they have full freedom to make their life choices. So much so that they get a rank of 63 which is higher than USA (70) and Japan (71).

Perceptions of corruption are the average of binary answers to two GWP questions: “Is corruption widespread throughout the government or not?” and “Is corruption widespread within businesses or not?” Where data for government corruption are missing, the perception of business corruption is used as the overall corruption-perception measure. Perception of corruption polls are no less amusing. Myanmar is ranked 33 which is higher than the ranking of USA (38). Even Bangladesh at 40 considers itself less corrupt than South Korea (41), Israel (44), Spain (45) etc. In Indian sub continent, Sri Lankans consider themselves more corrupt than their other south Asian neighbours.

Theoretically the highest scoring country can score the maximum of 3.375 in the four factors (viz. 1.620 + 0.772 + 0.422+ 0.561= 3.375). The highest figure actually achieved under these categories is 3.018 by Finland followed by 3.016 by Denmark.
Likewise the worst scoring country can score a low figure of 0.000 + 0.000 +0.000 + 0.000=0.000. In reality the lowest scoring country in these categories is Afghanistan at 0.152 followed by Lebanon at 0.687.

When we combine the marks of two objective categories with the marks obtained in the four subjective categories then we get overall points under the six catogories. According to that, Singapore emerges first at 5.52 points, Denmark comes at number 2 with 5.503, Sweden is third at 5.492 , Norway is fourth at 5.486, Finland is fifth at 5.441, Israel 23rd at 4.782, USA is 25th at 4.769.

Among Indian subcontinent countries, Sri Lanka is 73rd with 3.817, Nepal at 96th with 3.173, India 101st with 3.057,Bangladesh 106th with 2.922, Pakistan is 114th with 2.649.

I can see vehement protests coming from some quarters because the World Happiness ranking shows India behind all its neigbours in general, and behind Pakistan and Bangladesh in particular.

I am going to explain how India fell behind Pakistan, Bangladesh etc despite outscoring them in the six categories. India was put behind Pakistan and Bangladesh by shifting the goalpost. Yes, those who create this world Happiness Index have kept a trick up their sleeve which they use to manipulate the ranking arbitrary at their whim and fancy. To achieve this manipulation, they have introduced another category called Dystopia + residual.

“Dystopia” is a hypothetical nation that scores the lowest under all categories. Dystopia represents the lowest national averages for each of the six key variables and is, along with residual error, used as a regression benchmark.

From the earlier discussion we have seen that “Dystopia” nation would achieve a score of 0.000 under the six categories. The country that comes the closest to Dystopia in our ranking seen so far is Afghanistan that scores 0.883. Next country after Afghanistan is Comoros with 1.847.

From the above explanation of Dystopia, one would assume that countries that score high marks (and are thus far away from the hypothetical country of Dystopia would have similar marks under the heading of Dystopia + residual. Likewise countries that score poorly under the six factors and are thus closer to Dystopia would be expected to score similar marks under the heading of Dystopia + residual. Not by a long shot ! We cannot be more wrong !

We find that countries that score very high under the six headings and countries that score abysmally can have similar scores under the heading of Dystopia + residual. On the otherhand Countries that have similar scores under the six categories can have vastly different scores under the category of Dystopia + residual. In fact, countries that were way behind after adding up their marks under the six categories were made to leapfrog other nations rather unfairly and arbitrarily.

Here are some examples to show the arbitrariness of all this.

Singapore that stood first in ranking when the scores of six categories were counted was given a score of only 1.067 in the category of Dystopia + residual. Denmark was given 2.084, Sweden 1.903, Norway 1.829 and Finland 2.423.

When this dystopia + Residual category figures were added to the sum total total of the six categories, Finland became the number one nation, whereas Singapore, for no fault of theirs was relegated from number one position down to 26th position. Israel, who were on a lowly 23rd position, jumped up to 4th because they were given a whopping 2.691 under the category of Dystopia + residual.

Let us see the above discussion in tabular form:

Country sum total marks of six categories Ranking after sum total of six categories Marks given in the category of Dystopia + residual Final marks Final ranking
Singapore 5.520 1st 1.067 6.587 26th
Finland 5.441 5th 2.363 7.804 1st
Israel 4.782 23rd 2.691 7.473 4th

We have heard that Finland was number one in the happiness ranking for the fifth year in a row. How creditable, we are told. Now we know how they are achieving their number one ranking year after year. It is by using corrupt means. It has been done by awarding them very high marks and awarding the actual winner very low marks on the artificially and fraudulently created category of dystopia + Residual.

Let us now come to the changes in ranking of Indian subcontinent nations before and after Dystopia + residual marks.

Country sum total marks of six categories Ranking after sum total of six categories Marks given in the category of Dystopia + residual Final marks Final ranking
India 3.057 101st 0.979 4.036 126th
Pakistan 2.649 114th 1.907 4.555 108th
Bangladesh 2.922 106th 1.361 4.282 118th
Nepal 3.173 96th 2.187 5.360 78th
Sri Lanka 3.817 73rd 0.625 4.442 112th

We observe that Sri Lanka was 73rd and India was 101st in the happiness ranking. But those who publish the list had other ideas. They awarded low marks to India and Sri Lanka and such high marks to Pakistan and Bangladesh under Dystopia + residual that they rose above India. In their overenthusiasm, they awarded such high marks to Nepal that it reached a rank of 78th where it hardly belongs.

India finds itself behind Pakistan and Bangladesh, and also behind countries like Mali and Liberia, but then that was because Mali and Liberia were artificially granted huge points viz 2.070 and 1.869 respectively under the category of Dystopia + residual, otherwise they were at the bottom without the grace marks provided under Dystopia + residual.

The data for this happiness index 2023 is available in the excel sheet format at this link.

The relevant page containing the above data is this and this.

So, my conclusion is, this world happiness Index is a bogus ranking. It is hogwash, it is fraud. It should not be taken seriously. The people behind this ranking are taking people for a ride by creating a list that is based on dubious data where opinions of a few hundred people are used to brand an entire nation as happy or unhappy. When even that does not serve the purpose, they further move nations up or down the list by arbitrarily increasing or decreasing their marks in the column of dystopia + error which itself is a column created to manipulate the rankings.

Gallup methodology of poll shows that they take a poll of a few hundred people without doing any due diligence to ensure that their polls follows the principles of sampling. In a country like India, whose population is more than that of any continent (other than Asia), a truly representative sampling would run into at least 25 thousand people, may be a few lakhs, and it would take elaborate preparation and vast expenditure on the scale of Indian elections opinion polls. I do not think Gallup have bothered to spend so much time, money and effort while carrying out their polls in India, if at all they have bothered to carry it out. Had they done this exercise in India, this would have been a vast exercise and we would have known about it. But we do not know anything about it. So most likely, their poll in India has been an eyewash. Few people seem to have questioned their methodology. Most people interested in Indian affairs seem to have blindly believed this happiness ranking and they have used this ranking to bash the Indian government or it has been used to troll India and Indians.

Based on the above discussion, I feel that the world Happiness Index is not worth the paper it is printed on. Indians should stop giving credence to it because plainly speaking it is nothing but a fraud that has successfully been perpetrated for over a decade by now. Forget Indians, people worldwide should also question the people behind this Index. So far they have managed to avoid scrutiny and have continued on their own merry ways.

I hope readers will now gain some insight into the mechanism of this so called World Happiness Index. The creators of this index decide the ranking beforehand and then they artificially award points under the column of Dystopia + residual. It is the most corrupt methodology to make a list.

I have not yet analysed press freedom index, democracy index, human rights index etc. There too India is ranked low behind countries that have now press freedom, no democracy and no human rights. When I analyse them, I am sure I will find similar gory details there as well.

I have mentioned in the beginning of the post that I am by nature a happy person. My guess is that most readers of this blog are also like me. I feel that music lovers are by nature well adjusted people who find it easy to stay happy most of the time. Even our film songs are no different. In almost all movies of golden era, we had happy joyuos songs where actors would be seen singing and dancing, often for no apparent reasons. On other occasions, they are singing and dancing because it is some festival/ celebration. Indians have so many festivals, and so many occasions of celebration. And all those occasions finds people singing and dancing. If that does not count towards happiness index, that is the problem of the index makers. Indians are more happy than the Happiness Index makers can ever imagine.

Here is a happy song from a movie called “Dil Ka Raja”(1972).

‘Dil Ka Raaja-1972’ was produced by A K Nadiadwala and directed by P. Madhwan for ‘Nadiadwala Associates, Bombay’. The movie had Raj Kumar, Leena Chandavarkar, Ajit, Bindu, Jagdeep, Indrani Mukherjee, Randhir, Meena T., Sheikh, Surendra Rahi, Manjeet, Omkar, Pandit Iqbal, Jankidas, Uma Dutt, Rajesh, Maqbool, Master Anil, Master Ripal, and Waheeda Rehman (in special appearance) etc in it.

The movie had five songs in it. Two songs have been covered in the past.

While looking for a joyous song to go with this post on World Happiness ranking, I came across that song. I realised that I had last heard this song in 1972, when this song was quite a popular song. I loved this song, though I had no inkling which movie this song was from. Now more than half a century later, I find myself getting reunited with this song, like how it happens in a Manmohan Desai movie.

The song is sung by Rafi, Asha Bhonsle and Manna Dey. It is picturised as a joyous dance song on Raj KUmar (double role of father and son, Leena Chandawarkar and Jagdeep plus another person that I could not uidentify. I request our knowledgeable readers to identify the unidentified person. What a wonderfully lively and joyous song ! Enjoy !

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Composer– R.D. Burman-Parchhaayiyaan-1972)
——————————————-———————————————

In this post I present a song from the ‘1972’ movie ‘Parchhaayiyaan’. Though the music of this movie is composed by R.D. Burman, none of the songs from this movie ring a bell for me. I may have forgotten them, in case I had listened to them, or may be I failed to associate them with this title.

I think this movie was a lesser known and forgotten movie of its time and so its songs were also forgotten.

‘Parchhaayiyaan-1972’ was directed by Sharan Kumar Chand for ‘Noorjahan Films’. It was produced by K. Zaidi and Azad.

It had Vinod Khanna, Reshma, Bindu, Sujit Kumar, Iftekhar, Sajjan, Murad, Tarun Ghosh, Bhagwan Sinha, Meena T., Mohan Choti, Ranjeet (guest appearance), Shaukat Kaifi, Mona, Kunwar Ajit, and Indrani Mukherjee.

Story and screenplay for this movie was written by Ranjan Bose. Dialogues of this movie were written by Rahi Masoom Raza.
Editing of this movie was done by Subhash Gupta.

This movie was passed by Censor Board on 15.11.1972.

“Parchhaayiyaan-1972” has five songs written by Majrooh Sultanpuri and composed by R.D. Burman. Lata Mangeshkar, Mohd Rafi, Kishore Kumar, and Asha Bhonsle had given their voices to the songs in this movie.

This movie had made its debut on the blog on 05.09.2014 with its song ‘saanson mein kabhi, dil mein kabhi, nazron mein rahaa karnaa’ sung by Mohd Rafi and Asha Bhonsle.
Thereafter second song from this movie i.e. ‘khuli khuli zulfen khoye khoye nain’ sung by Kishore Kumar was posted on the blog on 02.04.2015.

he song being covered today is the third song from this movie to be presented on the blog. Today’s song is sung by Kishore Kumar and Lata Mangeshkar. Vinod Khanna and Bindu lip-sync on screen. This song is shown happening in a ‘village function’ and it seems to be inspired from ‘folk music’ (which I am unable to identify).

Also seen in the picturisation of the song are Sujit Kumar and Reshma. Both of them are ‘jealously’ watching Vinod Khanna and Bindu doing this ‘romantic’ number. One can even notice actress Reshma ‘shaking’ in anger. 🙂

Majrooh Sultanpuri is the lyricist and music is composed by R.D. Burman for the song.

let us now enjoy the song …

———————————————————————

In this post we are going to listen to a song from the movie ‘Samaadhi-1972’.

This song seems to be ‘excluded’ from the movie after its release. One comment on the link of this song suggests ‘this song was there when the movie was released initially’. And this comment also mentions that this song is shown as the ‘naach-gaana’ or ‘party song’ at the ‘dacoits’ head quarters’ or at the ‘addaa of the daaku giroh’ 🙂

The video of this song is not available. Only the audio of this song is available.

Bhalla, Bhushan Tiwari, C.S. Dubey, Sadhana Khote, Keshav Rana, Dulari, R.P. Sethi, Sadhu Singh, Master Satyajeet, Master Raju, Master Rajeev, and others.

Story, screenplay and dialogues of this movie were written by Pandit Mukhram Sharma. Editing of this movie was done by Lachhmandas.

This movie was passed by Censor Board on 15.12.1972.

Majrooh Sultanpuri was the lyricist for this film and had written all the six songs in this movie. Music for this movie was composed by R.D. Burman.
Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhonsle and Manna Dey had given their voices to the songs in this movie.

———————————————————–—-
#Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Samaadhi-1972)
—————————————

Welcome all to this second post of mine on ‘background songs’ in Hindi movies.

Today’s song is from the ‘1972’ movie ‘Samaadhi’.

“Samaadhi-1972” was directed by Prakash Mehra for ‘Sangam Arts International’. It was produced by Bhagwant Singh and G.L. Khanna.

It had Asha Parekh, Dharmendra, Jaya Bhaduri (special appearance), Madan Puri, Abhi Bhattacharya, Raj Mehra, Sundar, Randhir, Ram Mohan, Shetty, Leela Mishra, Tun Tun, B.B. Bhalla, Bhushan Tiwari, C.S. Dubey, Sadhana Khote, Keshav Rana, Dulari, R.P. Sethi, Sadhu Singh, Master Satyajeet, Master Raju, Master Rajeev, and others.

Story, screenplay and dialgoues of this movie were written by Pandit Mukhram Sharma.
Editing of this movie was done by Lachhmandas.

This movie was passed by Censor Board on 15.12.1972.

Majrooh Sultanpuri was the lyricist for this film and had written all the six songs in this movie. Music for this movie was composed by R.D. Burman.

Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar, Asha Bhonsle and Manna Dey had given their voices to the songs in this movie.

Here is the list of songs in this movie and their status on the blog.

Sr.no Song Title Singer/s Posted on
01 Kaanta laga haay laga Lata Mangeshkar 10.12.2008
02 Jab tak rahe tan mein jiya Asha Bhonsle 13.10.2008

04 Jaane jaana jaao kal phir aana Kishore Kumar
05 Maine dekha ek sapnaa Kishore Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar 24.05.2014
06 O yaara yaara Asha Bhonsle

From the above table we can see that only three songs from this movie have so far been posted on the blog. The movie had its first song posted on the blog on 13.10.2008. So, it is long time now that this movie has still not been Yippeeee’ed on the blog.

(The sixth song mentioned in the above list is said to be deleted from the movie after its release. Only the audio of this song is available now.)

(None of the songs from this movie make it to the ‘annual list of Binaca Geetmala’ of ‘1972’. Though, ‘kaanta laga’ appears in the list of next rung of 23 songs at number 19.)

As mentioned above today’s song is a background song which is sung by Manna Dey. He has also sung many of this type of songs and in fact the next three-four posts under this series could all have songs sung by Manna Dey only. He was another perfect choice for such type of songs.

Today’s song is played in four parts in the movie as the movie progresses. The central character in today’s song is Lakhan the dacoit in this movie who is played by Dharmendra on screen. I watched this movie online last Sunday and I must say that this movie is one of the very nice movies of those years.

Lakhan Singh is a dacoit and usually he and his gang of dacoits is raiding various villages to loot the money and jewelry from the villagers. During one such raid he kidnaps Champa (Asha Parekh) and tries to molest her, but when she tries to fight back he falls in love with her. Champa is an orphan living with her Uncle and Aunt who are happy after her kidnapping. Lakhan took backs Champa to her home where Champa sees her Uncle and Aunt celebrating. She decides to live with Lakhan and both of them get married in a temple. Lakhan Singh leaves the ‘dacoit gang’, and the ‘boore kaams’, to live a happy life of a good citizen. However, Champa is diagnosed with Cancer. Her treatment could not be done in absence of money. Devastated by Champa’s death Lakhan returns back to his ‘dacoit avtaar’ and wants to take revenge of the ‘money lender’ who refuses him to give money for Champa’s treatment. However the money lender’s (Randhir) wife begs for his life and Lakhan forgives him. But the money lender informs Police about Lakhan.

Police comes to the village to arrest Lakhan but he escapes away with his child on his back. He returns back to his ‘dacoit companions’ who happily welcome him and his son back.

From here there are lot of twists and turns in this movie and the today’s song is played which comments on the destiny of Lakhan, and the helplessness and the ‘deeds’ of Lakhan Singh himself.

The first part of this song gets played when Lakhan Singh runs away from the police and returns to his ‘camp’.

The second part of the song is played when Lakhan Singh handovers his own son to Abhi Bhattacharya whose son accidentally gets killed falling from hill when Lakhan Singh kidnaps him for a ransom. Lakhan Singh gives his son to Seth Manoharlal (Abhi Bhattacharya) telling him that he is the one whom he kidnapped eight years back.

Eight years back Lakhan Singh kidnaps Seth Manoharlal’s son for money and hide in a temple atop a hill (in Rajasthan). When Seth Manoharlal reaches the temple with the money Lakhan Singh is coming down carrying the child and his legs stumble upon a stone on the slope and the child falls down from his hands and dies. Lakhan is shocked but keep hiding until Seth Manoharlal returns back after lot of pain and wiping for his son. (This scene is a very long scene in the movie and it captures the emotions of both very well. I like it very much).

Manoharlal raises Lakhan Singh’s son thinking of his own son who after growing up is played by Dharmendra again.
The third part of the song is played when his own son Ajay (grown up now-Dharmendra in double role) slaps Lakhan Singh for stealing the gun from his house.
The gun was actually taken by Seth Manoharlal’s nephew who wants to harm his own father (played by actor Sundar). Grief stricken Lakhan Singh leaves Seth Manoharlal’s house and this part gets played in the background.
By this time Seth Manoharlal gets to know that Ajay is in fact the son of Lakhan Singh only.

The fourth part of this song takes place in the end of the movie when Lakhan Singh sacrifices his life saving Seth Manoharlal and his family members at Ajay’s marriage function.

Jaggu (played by Madan Puri) who is Lakhan Singh’s accomplice tries to blackmail him for his sons reality and finally tries to loot them on the marriage function where the fights takes place and in the end Lakhan Singh saves all but lost his life saving Seth Manoharlal. Jaggu gets killed by Ajay.

(That is the background for the four parts of this background song. The part mentioned as part 2 is actually part-3 and I have numbered the part as they appear in the movie chronologically) 🙂

Enjoy this wonderful song sung by Manna Dey and written by Majrooh Sultanpuri.

Musical magic is by Pancham.

Today’s song is from the film Lalkaar-1972.

It is not common to see me writing on a film after 1970. I have been writing on old films since 2012 and have written more than 1100 posts so far on this Blog alone. But on a cursory look at my own figures, I find that I have written less posts on songs from films after 1970. It is certainly not because they are not good, but because my comfort zone is films before 1970, especially before 1960. The stats for my posts say that I wrote

Decade Number of posts for songs of that decade
1931-1940 152
1941-1950 438
1951-1960 419
1961-1970 46

The rest are for films after 1970 and NFS.

I have always maintained that “not all songs before 1970 are good and not all songs after 1970 are bad. There are good and bad songs in every decade “. The point is I do not listen to songs after 1970 much, as much as those before 1970. Nevertheless, for some really good and appealing songs, I did write on songs from later films ….even for a song of 2018 !

I have selected today’s song because it is a special song. It is the only song sung by Mala Sinha as a Playback singer, though it was shot on her in the film. In the true sense it may not be a ‘ playback song’, but certainly it was pre-recorded and she lip synched on it on the screen. It is a duet with Manhar (Udhas)-younger brother of the more famous singer Pankaj Udhas.

Mala Sinha was an educated, hard working actress. Though she worked with leading Banners and was Heroine to well known Heroes, she was never counted among the Class I Heroines of her Times. She worked with many newcomers, like Dharmendra etc. Her career spanned a long time but she never got a single Filmfare Award, though nominated 4 times.

Mala Sinha was born in a Bengali Nepalese Christian family in Calcutta,on 11-11-1936. Mala Sinha claimed herself to be of a Bengali descent Nepali many years ago in a T.V. interview. They named her Alda. Her friends at school used to tease her by calling her Dalda (a brand of vegetable oil), so she changed her name to Mala. In her childhood she learnt dancing and singing.

Although she was an approved singer of All India Radio, she has sung only one duet-with Manhar- in the film Lalkar-1972. But as a singer she has done stage shows in many languages from 1947 to 1975.

Mala started her career as a child artist in Bengali films Jai Vaishno Devi followed by Shri Krishan Leela, Jog Biyog and Dhooli. Noted Bengali director Ardhendu Bose saw her acting in a school play and took permission from her father to cast her as a heroine in his film Roshanara (1952)-Bangla film, her cinematic debut.

After acting in a couple of films in Calcutta, Mala had to go to Bombay for a Bengali film. There she met Geeta Bali, a noted Bollywood actress, who was charmed by her and introduced her to film director Kidar Sharma. It was Sharma who cast her as a heroine in his Rangeen Ratein-56. Her first Hindi film was Badshah-54 opposite Pradeep Kumar, then came Ekadashi-55, a mythological film. Both failed, but her lead role in Kishore Sahu’s Hamlet-54, paired opposite Pradeep Kumar, fetched her rave reviews in spite of it failing at the box office. Films like Lai Batti (ac­tor Balraj Sahni’s only directorial venture), Nausherwan-E-Adil where she starred as the fair maiden Marcia in Sohrab Modi’s romance about forbidden love and Phir Subah Hogi, which was direc­tor Ramesh Saigal’s adapta­tion of Dosteovsky’s Crime and Punishment established Mala Sinha’s reputation as a versatile actress who took the maximum career risks by accepting unconventional roles.

Mala was a singer of some repute and used to sing for All India Radio; she was not allowed to sing playback (even for herself) in the movies with the lone exception being 1972’s Lalkar. In the 1950s, she had a string of hits opposite Pradeep Kumar like Fashion -1957, Detective -1958, Duniya Na Mane-1959 though their first two ventures had failed. The films she did with Pradeep Kumar were men-oriented. In 1957, noted Bollywood actor and film director Guru Dutt (the husband of Geeta Dutt) cast Mala in his film Pyaasa-1957 in a role originally intended for Madhubala. Mala gave a memorable performance as the relatively unsympa­thetic part of an ambitious woman who chooses to marry a rich man (played by actor Rehman) and have a loveless marriage rather than a poor, unsuccessful poet and her impoverished lover (played by Guru Dutt) whom she ditches. Pyaasa remains to this day a classic in the history of Indian cinema and a turning point for Sinha.

After Pyaasa her major successes were Phir Subah Hogi-1958 and Yash Chopra’s directorial debutsDhool Ka Phool -1959 that elevated her into a major dramatic star. There was no looking back for Sinha then as she was part of many successful movies from 1958 to the early ’60s like Parvarish -1958, Ujala, Main Nashe Mein Hoon, Duniya Na Mane, Love Marriage -1959, Bewaqoof -1960, Maya -1961, Hariyali Aur Rasta and Dil Tera Deewana -1962, Anpadh, Bombay Ka Chor -1962. Critics believe her career best performance was in Bahurani -1963, Gumrah, Gehra Daag, Apne Huye Paraye and Jahan Ara. Apart from pairing with Pradeep Kumar, her pairing opposite Raaj Kumar, Rajendra Kumar,Biswajit and Manoj Kumar in women-oriented films were appreciated by audiences, with her films opposite Biswajitbeing the most popular. She did 10 films with Biswajit. In 2007, they won the Star Screen Lifetime Achievement Award, calling them on stage together giving due respect to their popularity as a pair who have tasted box office success.

The most remarkable feature of Mala Sinha was that most of her 1960s and 1970s hits were fueled by her own star power as much as the heroes and most of the time her role was more powerful than the hero. Though she was pitted opposite her seniors like Raj Kapoor, Dev Anand, Kishore Kumar, Pradeep Kumar and when she acted opposite the emerging stars from late 1950s like Shammi Kapoor, Rajendra Kumar and Raaj Kumar, she made sure her role was as good as theirs.

In 1966, Sinha went to Nepal to act in a Nepali film called Maitighar when the Nepali film industry was still in its infancy. This was the only Nepali film she did in her career. Her hero in the film was an estate owner called Chidambar Prasad Lohani. Soon after, Mala Sinha married C. P. Lohani with the blessings of her parents. From the beginning theirs was a long-distance marriage with Lohani based in Kathmandu to look after his business and Sinha living in Bombay with their daughter Pratibha. She continued acting after her marriage.

From 1974, she cut down on her assignments as the lead actresses. She accepted strong character roles in films like 36 Ghante -1974, Zindagi -1976, Karmayogi -1978, Be-Reham -1980, Harjaee -1981, Yeh Rishta Na Tootay, Babu (film) and Khel, which were popular.

In the early ’90s Madhuri Dixit was promoted as new Mala Sinha in magazines. But, after 1994, she completely withdrew from industry and has given very few public appearances. In Dhool Ka Phool and B.R. Chopra’s Gumrah, she played the first unwed mother and adulterous wife respectively in Hindi cinema. As she grew older, she gracefully moved on to doing character roles that befitted her age. She was last seen in Zid -1994. Though Mala evinced as much interest in her daughter Pratibha’s career as her father did in her career, she was unable to achieve the same success for her daughter.(adapted from nett4you and wiki).

Mala Sinha came from Calcutta to make a career in Bombay films. In Calcutta she worked in a Bilingual film ‘Chitrangada-54’ in Bangla and Hindi. In 54 again, she did her first film in Bombay, Badshah-54, then came Hamlet-54, Riyasat-55 and Ekadashi-55. In all she did 105 films.

In all her interviews, Mala Sinha always quoted “Rangeen Raten”-56 with Shammi Kapoor as her first film in Bombay. She was ashamed of revealing that in film Riyasat-55, her Hero was Mahipal and in film Ekadashi-55 it was Trilok Kapoor. She always hid this fact. There are many Heroines who want to hide their struggling days. For example,in the film “Professor”-62 Shammi Kapoor’s Heroine was Kalpana. Though touted as her first film, her first film was Pyar ki Jeet-62, opposite Mahipal- a fact which Kalpana always hid from everyone.

Similarly, A grade Heroine Meena Kumari also had done several Mythological and costume films before Baiju Bawra took her high up and above other Heroines. Films like Veer Ghatotkach-49, Shri Ganesh Mahima-50, Laxmi Narayan-51, Hanuman Paataal vijay-51 and Alladin aur Jadui Chirag-52 had Mahipal as her Hero. In her later years, she always hid her earlier film Heroes.

Even comedian Johnny Walker, who is supposed to have made a beginning with Baazi-51, had earlier worked in “The last message or Aakhri paigham”-49. However this fact is not told by anyone.

Not only actors, but even singers do this. They hesitate to say that they first sang for C grade films. Take the case of Sudha Malhotra, who used to declare Arzoo-50 as her first film, under Anil Biswas, but she never told that earlier she had sung 3 songs in film Aakhri paigham-49, under the baton of Abid Hussein Khan, composer.

It is very unfortunate that once the artiste becomes famous, he tends to forget his humble beginning with a less known film or a composer. This is because they are ashamed of it. I feel the blame also goes to people who take their interview, because the interview takers do not do proper homework. Many times they do not know anything and simply note down whatever is told by the artiste.

Film Lalkaar-1972 was made by Sagar Art International, Bombay. It was directed by Ramanand Sagar – who became world famous later for screening his record making epic TV serial Ramayana from 25-1-1987 to 31-7-1988. The music was by kalyanji-Anand ji ably assisted by Jaykumar Parte – who was their assistant for many years. Parte is practically unknown to most people. He was not only the most wanted arranger in the industry, but he had given music to 4 Hindi films and 1 Marathi film. The other assistant was Babla-their own younger brother and a well known musician. The third assistant was Frank Fernando – one of the pMD pair of Roy-Frank duo who gave music to only 1 film, Gogola-1966.

The cast of the film lalkaar-1972 was Rajendra Kumar, Mala Sinha, Dharmendra, Kumkum, Dara Singh, Dev Kumar, Ramesh Deo, Nazir Hussain and a long list of other actors. Today’s duet song is the only Hindi film song sung by Mala Sinha in her career. She makes Debut here and ALL her songs are now covered on the Blog, with this song !

Song- Mere Mehboob meri baat tumhen kya maaloom(Lalkaar)(1972) Singers-Manhar Udhas, Mala Sinha (Debut Song), Lyricist- Hasrat Jaipuri, MD- Kalyanji – Anandji (asstt. Jay Parte)

Lyrics

Mere mehboob
meri baat
tumhen kya aa maaloom
meri dhadkan
mere jazbaat
tumhen kya aa maaloom
meri nazron ke sawaalaat
tumhen kya maaloom
kaise kat’te hain ye din raat
tumhen kya aa maaloom

naam lekar kabhi ek bar pukaara hota
teri awaaz ka kuchh humko sahaara aa hota

meri khamoshi bhi awaaz diya karti hai
baat munh se nahin
nazron se hua karti hai
jhooth
yoon bhi hoti hai mulaakaat
tumhen kya maaloom
tumhi rahte ho mere saath
tumhen kya maaloom

tum mujhse baat kyun nahin karte
darta hu kahi tum naraj na ho jao
pyar kuch jurm nahi hai jo dara karte ho
raaz apne se chhupate ho
ye kya karte ho

lab pe aa jaye agar raaj to vo raaz nahin
tumse keh doon ye mere ishq ka andaaz nahin
ek deewaane ke haalaat
tumhen kya maaloom
tumne bhadka diye jazbaat
tumhen kya maaloom

mere mehboob meri baat
tumhen kya aa maaloom

!! आप सभी को हिन्दी दिवस की हार्दिक शुभकामनाएँ !!!

Welcome all to this post of mine which is coming after a l-o-n-g gap. I was not sure this time also if I could be able to send this write-up. But thanks to ALL, I can now hope to share articles on regular basis as earlier. More about my long absence in the other future posts.

Coming back to the today’s post, which comes on a special occasion and that is the celebration of ‘Hindi Diwas’ today on 14th September.

Though I am not aware more of more details on this subject to write here today, I would like to add the following brief which I have gathered from the internet about this subject. (I hope readers will forgive me for my ‘ignorance’ on the details of this subject).

I am reproducing here the information given on internet about ‘Hindi Diwas’ which I have taken from ‘Wikipedia’

हिन्दी दिवस प्रत्येक वर्ष 14 सितम्बर को मनाया जाता है। प्रबुद्ध सोसाइटी के राष्ट्रीय अध्यक्ष डा. श्री प्रकाश बरनवाल का कहना है कि 14 सितम्बर 1949 को संविधान सभा ने यह निर्णय लिया कि हिन्दी केन्द्र सरकार की आधिकारिक भाषा होगी। क्योंकि भारत मे अधिकतर क्षेत्रों में ज्यादातर हिन्दी भाषा बोली जाती थी इसलिए हिन्दी को राजभाषा बनाने का निर्णय लिया और इसी निर्णय के महत्व को प्रतिपादित करने तथा हिन्दी को प्रत्येक क्षेत्र में प्रसारित करने के लिये वर्ष 1953 से पूरे भारत में 14 सितम्बर को प्रतिवर्ष हिन्दी-दिवस के रूप में मनाया जाता है। स्वतन्त्रता प्राप्ति के बाद हिन्दी को आधिकारिक भाषा के रूप में स्थापित करवाने के लिए काका कालेलकर, हजारीप्रसाद द्विवेदी, सेठ गोविन्ददास आदि साहित्यकारों को साथ लेकर व्यौहार राजेन्द्र सिंह ने अथक प्रयास किये।

If we search on ‘google’ about the most spoken languages of the world we get the following results which I am reproducing below.

The most spoken languages in the world
• English (1,132 million speakers)
• Mandarin (1,117 million speakers)
• Hindi (615 million speakers)
• Spanish (534 million speakers)
• French (280 million speakers)
• Arabic (274 million speakers)
• Russian (258 million speakers)
• Portuguese (234 million speakers)

Well, above is the brief only. There is a long history behind ‘celebrating Hindi Diwas’ and ‘celebrating it on 14th September.

I had been always longing to bring here songs which talk about our culture, traditions, folklores etc etc and I have presented few of them under the series ‘Desh Ki Mitti Ki Khushboo’. Similarly, every year whenever ‘Hindi Diwas’ is celebrated I was looking for a suitable song for this occasion. Earlier I had come across many ‘non-film songs’ on this subject. However, when I was looking for the songs from the ‘1972’ movie ‘Kavi Sammelan’ I came across the today’s song which talks about the greatness of ‘Hindi’ -‘Hindi Bhaasha’, and I am very happy to present this song on the blog today.

Today’s song or rather a ‘poem recitation’ is by Santosh Anand ji of his own poem.

‘jisne jan jan ke jeewan ka
roop taraashaa hai
meri bhaasha Hindi bhaasha
sab ki bhaasha hai’
,/em.…

I am sure that regular readers on the blog must be enjoying all the posts presented under this series of poems from this movie. Today’s presentation is the fifth ‘poem-post’ from this movie.

A brief about the movie ‘Kavi Sammelan-1972’ is given below.

‘Kavi Sammelan-1972’ was directed by Kedar Sharma for ‘Rajshri Productions Pvt Ltd’.
It was produced by Tarachand Badjatya.

Introduction of the poets on the dais was done by Ramrikh Manhar.

This movie was passed by Censor Board on 18.02.1972. Thus, this movie has now already completed its fifty years of release.

The footnote for this movie page in HFGK Vol-V (1971-1980) mentions that ‘Bharat ke shreshthhtam Kavi pehli baar ek saath rajat-pat par pesh kiye gaye thhe.’

Poems of following ‘poets’ are included in this movie.

Rashtrakavi Shri Ramdhari Singh ‘Dinkar’
Santosh Anand (mentioned as ‘Santoshanand’)
Kaka Hathrasi
Som Thakur
Bekal ‘Utsahi’
‘Neeraj’
Snehlata ‘Sneh’
Radheshyam ‘Pragalbh’
Shail Chaturvedi
Govind Vyas
Maya Devi
Nirbhay Hathrasi
Balkavi Bairaagi
Omprakash ‘Aaditya’
Manik Verma
Kedar Sharma
Gopal Prasad Vyas

(Addenda in HFGK Vol-V (1971-1980) for this movie mentions that there were two more creations by Vimlesh and Paras Bhramar in this movie.)

So far, we have enjoyed the poems recited by Maya Govind, Kaka Hathrasi, Gopal Das ‘Neeraj’ and Shail Chaturvedi in the earlier posts for the poems from this movie.

As mentioned above today’s poem is written and recited by Shri Santosh Anand.

Poet-lyricist Santosh Anand ji needs no introduction as we are all aware about his writings or songs which he has penned for the movies.

Though I do wish to write about the biography of Santosh Anand in this write-up, for now, I am leaving it for another post on him which I will be taking in the future on the blog.

Let us now enjoy the today’s poem recitation by Santosh Anand ji …


Song-Jisne jan jan ke jeewan ka roop taraasha hai (Kavi Sammelan)(1972) Singer-Santosh Anand, Lyrics-Santosh Anand, Compere – Ramrikh ‘Manhar’
