6th October is the birthdate a very handsome talented actor who could have fallen in the category of “SUPERSTAR” too, if he had not just given it all up to follow his spiritual Guru just as his career was on the upswing. He was an actor who could dance without making the audience feel that he was uncomfortable, I have seen him match steps with HEMA MALINI & Kalpana Iyer in the 1980s. He was introduced into Hindi films in Sunil Dutt’s ‘Man Ka Meet’ in a supporting role in 1968. He played supporting characters to Rajesh Khanna, Shammi Kapoor, Jeetendra, Dharmendra, Manoj Kumar etc. in his initial films. He didn’t flinch from playing characters that had grey or negative traits- he was good in action sequences too.

His first leading role was in Gulzar’s directorial debut ‘Mere Apne’. He experienced stardom & success in the late 1970s and was seen playing solo protagonist in films like ‘Inkaar’, ‘Shaque’ (to name just two, there are many). He held his own in multi-starrers too; that is also a very long list. I would like to mention that he was repeated by al the filmmakers of that time- Feroz Khan, Sunil Dutt, Prakash Mehra, Manmohan Desai, Raj Khosla etc.

We are thinking of Vinod Khanna on what would have been his 80th birthday.

Today’s song is the last and final song from a gross entertainer by manmohan Desai – Dharam Veer-1977

This is the 10th consecutive “Last and Final Song’ of a film that I have identified and presented. In the month of July also I wrote on 2 such songs. While rummaging through the ” List of song Moviewise”, I noticed some films where only one song was left uncovered. I decided to identify such films’ songs, make a list and check the covered songs to find out which song was yet to be covered. For many films, I found that such an uncovered song was the one for which a record was not issued. Most such other films were not available on YouTube to see and copy the song (by extraction method).

#Drunkard Songs -1 #

The song in this post is a drunkard song. We already have more than 200+ songs of this category in the blog but there are still many more😊 such songs yet to be represented here.

I was aware of many drunkard songs that are already covered in the blog from my radio listening and music collection days, but I was not aware that there were such a large number of these songs in Hindi films.

I have mentioned it several times that one of the reasons for me to like these songs was that they contained some high class poetry 😊 . The protagonist of these songs would often wax lyrical about philosophy of life. The protagonist would look cheerful while drunk, no matter he put others around him in embarrassing situation.😊
