Kamsune/Unsune songs of Asha Bhosle – 40

Today’s song “Yeh Hum Jaante Hain” is from “Aaj Ki Dhara” 1977. It is sung by Asha Bhosle, with music by Sapan-Jagmohan and lyrics by Naqsh Lyallpuri.

“Aaj Ki Dhara (Aaj Ki Radha) is a social drama that underwent production challenges and censorship issues, notably over its title. Featuring a stellar ensemble of actors—Mahendra Sandhu, Rehana Sultan, Waheeda Rehman, Danny Denzongpa, and Ranjeet—the film centers on an ordinary person’s courageous fight against societal corruption and injustice, highlighting themes of morality, family, and the individual’s place within traditional social structures. Its music, with evocative melodies and emotionally rich lyrics, complements the film’s tone, even as its production history remains a notable part of its story.

#Remembering the Divine Voice – Mohd Rafi#
————————————————————————
(Lyricist Kavi Pradeep-30)
——————————-

Regulars on this blog are aware that I am trying to bring as yet unrepresented Kavi Pradeep songs on the blog. Today I am presenting a song penned by Kavi Pradeep and sung by Mohd Rafi. This song is in fact a very familiar song to me that I have listened to many times, mostly on radio. But, I am surprised that this song is yet to be presented here. Today we are paying our tributes to the divine voice Mohd Rafi who passed away on this day in 1980. I take this opportunity to present this song sung by Mohd Rafi and written by Kavi Pradeep. Music for this song is composed by C. Arjun. This song is from the movie ‘Aankh Kaa Taaraa-1977’.

“Aankh Kaa Taaraa-1977” had Sachin, Bindiya, Om Shivpuri, Bindu, Ajit, Baby Pallavi, Dulari, Manisha, Nirupa Roy, Bharat Bhushan, Gajanan Jagirdar, Gufi, Mukri, Abhi Bhattacharya, Manhar Desai, Tun Tun, Preeti Ganguly, C.S. Dubey, Paintal, Baby Dimple Saigal and others.

Hullo Atuldom

It is 13 years since the passing of the first Superstar of Hindi cinema. I shall hold back the adjectives that are normally showered on this ICON who had a way to charm the audiences. His smile, emoting eyes etc. had the film viewing public, specially the female viewers swooning all over him, his images and even his CARS. A kind of mania no other actor has managed to replicate since then. He walked into their hearts riding an open top jeep, singing a song composed by S.D. Burman, in the voice of Kishore Kumar. Though that was not his first foray into films.

Let me first clarify that we are remembeing actor/producer Rajesh Khanna who veered towards politics (he contested the 1991/1992 Lok Sabha elections & won the ’92 Bye-election) briefly.
He was a winner of the 1965 All India Talent Contest, organised by United Producers and Filmfare magazine. Actors turned filmmakers Subhash Ghai & Dheeraj Kumar were also contestants in that year.

# Debutant Movie –Mandir Masjid-1977#

Today’s song is a wonderful sufi qawwaalee from the 1977 movie ‘Mandir Masjid’.

I was longing to share this song on the blog. I have listened to this song many times and liked this composition very much. The singers of this Qawwaalee song are Mohd Rafi, Manna Dey, Shankar-Shambhu, and Ram Kumar. I was under the impression that this song also has the voice of Jani Babu Qawwaal but Geet Kosh and other sources do not mention his name. As per information contained in Geet Kosh Vol-V (1971-1980) the famous Qawwaalee duo Shankar-Shambhu had confirmed that this song was composed by them, though the music composer for this movie was Sharda. They had also informed that this song has the voice of Ram Kumar as well(I am not aware about him).

Mukesh and his Composers – 37

The name of SN Tripathi evokes fond memories of melody and good music amongst avid HF music lovers. He was a multitalented personality who contributed to composing, singing, acting, storytelling, direction, screenplay writing, filmmaking etc.

Despite contributions in many fields of film making, he is best known as a music director. He gave music to mainly B grade mythological and historical movies, but these movies had A grade songs for us to cherish.

(Songs from Un-released/Un-Titled movies)

Yesterday 13th May 2025 was the seventy-nineth birthday of Shree Bishwanath Chatterjee compiler of Hindi Film Geet Kosh Vol-V (1971-1980).

This post is delayed on my part as I could not finish it yesterday. Earlier I had planned to visit to Nagpur for this special occasion, but it could not happen. I had spoken to our common friend Mr Avinash Shravane at Nagpur, and we thought that few likeminded friends would also attend this function. But it did not materialize. However, few friends did arrange some program as informed to me by Mr Chatterjee himself, when I called him to wish him on his birthday yesterday. (I am yet to get the updates about the function held yesterday, so that may be covered later 😊).
