2 December 2023 was the 9th Remembrance Day of Deven Verma (23/10/1937 – 02/12/2014) who had taken comical performances in Hindi films on a different level. Gulzar had said about Deven Verma that he was not a comedian but an actor. I think, he must have made this statement with his experience of working with him in ‘Angoor’ (1982). His performance was devoid of buffoonery but was loaded with gentle humour, wit, and pun. His wife, Roopa Ganguly had said that her husband was a witty person in his real life.
I first came to know about Deven Verma in the film ‘Devar’ (1966) which I had watched in a theatre upon its release. His role in the film had a shade of a villain because he had married Sharmila Tagore in deceit who was a sweat heart of his cousin, Dharmendra. In the same year, I had also watched ‘Anupama’ (1966) in which Dharmendra, Deven Verma and Sharmila Tagore again acted together. But in this film, Deven Verma has a positive role. He does not go ahead with his planned marriage with Sharmila Tagore. It is his friend, Dharmendra who marries her. In the 1970s and 1980s, Deven Verma had majorly transformed himself in the humourous roles.
Deven Verma (Real name: Devendu Verma) was born in Kutchh to a Rajasthani father and Gujarati mother. He had two elder sisters and two younger sisters. His father, Baldev Singh Verma had a business in silver. Later, he also became a film distributor in partnership with his friend. The family shifted to Pune because his elder sister got admission for MBBS in Pune. Deven Verma, after completion of his school in Panchgani, joined Wadia College in Pune from where he completed B.A. in Political Science and Sociology in 1957.
During his college days in Pune, Deven Verma participated in plays and youth festivals. He was also a part of the Pune delegation representing the city at Youth Festivals in Delhi. His father wanted him to become a lawyer whereas he was more interested in becoming an actor. In keeping with the wishes of his father, Deven Verma, after graduation, joined Government Law College in Mumbai. During this period, he got involved in stage shows with Johny Whiskey, doing mimicry of film artists. The stage shows made him to leave his law study halfway. It was his one-act play at a function of the North India Punjabi Association when producer-director, B R Chopra who was in the audience, picked him for the film, ‘Dharmaputra’ (1961) at a monthly salary of Rs.600/-. The film failed at the box office.
Deven Verma continued with his stage shows in India and abroad. On return from stage shows abroad, A V Meiyappan of AVM Studios hired him on a contract for Rs.1500/- per month, for three years. He had to shift to Madras (Chennai) where he underwent training in acting. In the meanwhile, B R Chopra’s ‘Gumraah’ (1963) got released in which he had a role of a servant of Ashok Kumar. The film was a box office success. A V Meiyappan asked him to choose between Chennai and Mumbai and he decided to shift to Mumbai after a year.
On returning to Mumbai, Deven Verma did ‘Qawwali Ki Raat’ (1964). Next, he did ‘Devar’ (1966), ‘Anupama’ (1966) and a Bhojpuri film, ‘Nahihar Chhutal Jaaye’ (1964) in which he was in the lead role with Kumkum. But none of the films resulted in pushing his acting career. Unable to make much headway in his acting career, Deven Verma turned producer with ‘Yakeen’ (1969), directed by Brij Sadanah. The film was a box office success. Next, he produced and directed ‘Naadan’ (1971) and ‘Bada Kabootar’ (1973).
Deven Verma’s acting career took off with ‘Chori Mera Kaam’ (1975) for which he got his first Filmfare Award for the Best Comedian. With this, he was flooded with many acting assignments. During 1976-78, his 28 films and during 1979-82, his 30 films were released. His notable performances in humourous roles were in the films of Hrishikesh Mukherjee ( ‘Golmaal’ 1979, ‘Rang Birangee’, 1983), Gulzar (‘Angoor’, 1982) and Basu Chatterjee (‘Khatta Meetha’, 1978, ‘Priyatama’ 1978, ‘Dillagi’ 1978). In ‘Angoor’ (1982), he gave a memorable performance in which he and Sanjeev Kumar played double roles. Deven Verma won the Filmfare Award for the Best Comedian in this film.
Deven Verma worked with Ashok Kumar in maximum number of his films. He was also a regular visitor to his home during which he and Roopa Ganguly, Ashok Kumar’s younger daughter, fell in love. They wanted to get married. But Ashok Kumar delayed giving his consent for the marriage by telling him that she was too young, and he would decide later. Finally, it was Kishore Kumar who intervened to get them married.
During his 4 decades in Hindi films, Deven Verma acted in about 150 films and produced/directed 7 films. His last released film was ‘Calcutta Mail’ (2003). He had also worked in some TV serials in the 1990s.
Deven Verma announced his retirement from the films after the death of his father-in-law, Ashok Kumar in December 2001. After the completion of his remaining acting assignments, he permanently shifted to Kalyani Nagar, Pune where he had bought a bungalow in 1993 with the intention of settling there.
Deven Verma passed away on December 2, 2014, in his house in Pune due to heart attack and kidney failure.
‘Chhuppa Chhuppi’ (1981) was probably the only Hindi film in which Deven Verma got the lead role with Aruna Irani. The film was produced by Ram Films and was directed by Arun Jaitly, the only Hindi film he directed. The other cast of the film included Madan Puri, Shammi, Paintal, Indra Kumar, Satyen Kapoo, Aparna Chaudhary, Helen, Sunder, Seema Deo, Keshto Mukherjee, Tun Tun, Master Bhagwan etc. The film belongs to ‘detective comedy’ genre.
The gist of the film’s story is as under:
Rani (Aruna Irani) is the daughter of a wealthy parents (Madan Puri and Shammi) and stays in Delhi. Due to pressure of marriage from her parents, Rani runs away from her parents and lands in Mumbai. She stays in a hotel. She gets a job as a Secretary to private detective, William Bose (Deven Verma) who was brought up in an orphanage for which he monetarily helps.
Rani’s parents search almost all the places in Delhi where Rani is likely to visit but still there is no trace of her. They do not wish to lodge a missing person’s complaint with the police as this may spoil the marriage plan. They presume that Rani may have gone to Mumbai as she often used to say to her parents for a visit. Rani’s father engages a private Detective, Bose, for investigating Rani’s whereabouts at a fee of Rs.50000/- which Bose needs to give it to the orphanage for surgery on one of the orphan boys. With this, Rani is in the verge of getting exposed.
Rani plays a trick. She intercepts the photo of her sent by her father to Bose and replaces with some other photo from a studio which happens to be that of Rossie (Aparna Chaudhary) who is the sweat heart of a smuggler (Satyen Kapoo). Bose is after Rossie believing her to be Rani to capture her and get Rs.50000/-. Smuggler believes that Bose is trying to expose his smuggling business through Rossie. What follows is the situational comedy in which smuggler trashes Bose while trying to capture Rossie. In his second attempt, Bose is able to capture Rossie and brings her to the police station to be handed over to Rani’s parents.
Rani’s parents reaches police station. However, their happiness is short-lived as the girl in the police custody is not Rani who is actually watching all these events from a safe distance. Rani realises that getting Rs.50000/- from her parents is important to Bose as he is required to pay that sum to the hospital for the surgery of an orphan boy. She promises Bose that by the next day, she would find Rani and hand her over to the parents to get him the money.
The next day, Rani makes a visit to her parents in their hotel room and surrenders herself by telling them that Bose has sent her. Parents are happy and Bose is called at the hotel room to get his fess. But he refuses to accept the money by telling them that he has not done anything, but it is Rani who has come in her own volition. But Rani forces Bose to accept the money and return it when he gets reward of the like amount from the police in helping them to nab the smuggler. At the end, Rani’s parents have not only got back their daughter but also Bose as a bridegroom for her.
The film had 7 songs written by Lokendra (6) and Arun Jaitley (1) which were set to music by Bhuban-Hari (Pandit Bhubaneshwar Mishra-Pandit Hari Prasad Chaurasia). The duo have composed music for many Odiya films.
Pandit Bhubaneshwar Mishra was the doyen of Odiya traditional music. Trained in both Hindustani and Carnatic classical music, he was throughout associated with Guru Kelucharan Mahapatra and Sanjukta Panigrahi, in composing music for their Odissi dances. Just as music director, Sudhir Phadke is well known in composing music for G D Madgulkar’s ‘Geet Ramayan’ in Marathi, Pandit Bhubaneshwar Mishra has done pioneering work in composing music for the Jayadeva’s ‘Geeta Govinda’ in Odiya.
I am presenting the first song from the film, ‘Chhuppa Chhuppi’ (1981), ‘dheere dheere lo kahaan aa gaye hain ye kadam’ to appear on the Blog. The song is written by Lokendra and is rendered by Anuradha Paudwal. The song is picturised on Aruna Irani and Deven Verma as a background song when they realise for the first time that they are in love with each other.
Note: The biography of Deven Verma is mainly based on his interview which was published in http://www.rediff.com on July 23, 2013.

Hullo Atuldom
We are all fans of someone or other. We also find that our idols are fans of talents from their growing up years, whom they used to idolize & continue to do so. I can enumerate many examples to show this- {1} Amitabh Bachchan, Dharmendra, Shahrukh Khan etc have a huge fan following but, at various occasions they have confessed that seeing Dilip Kumar on-screen is what made them want to be become actors. {2} Dilip Kumar & Dev Anand are said to have been inspired by Ashok Kumar. {4} Waheeda Rehman’s is another case in point – her fangirl moment came when she got to face the camera alongside Dev Anand for ‘C.I.D’ (1956).
Do we need more examples? SP Balasubramaniam was a huge fan of the legend Mohd. Rafi – like the rest of the followers of Indian Film Music. SPB (he used to be addressed as SPB in addition to being called Balu Sir) himself was a singer with a huge fan following. Balu Sir has mentioned ‘N’ number of times how he used to be moved to tears when he heard some of Rafi Saab’s songs. I am sure he must have felt privileged when he got to sing songs of similar moods & genres. Today’s song is one such song i.e. one that has somber feelings.
1981 was the year that the audiences of Hindi films heard the voice of SP Balasubramaniam for the first time in ‘Ek Duje Ke Liye’ (EDKL); which had him share the recording room with another of his own favorite singers- Lata Mangeshkar & he was never tired about relating how he felt on that day. Following the success of ‘EDKL’ his voice was used for a few hundred songs in Hindi. When Salman Khan got successful with ‘Maine Pyaar Kiya’ (1989) part of it was because he sang in Balu Sir’s voice. For most of the early part of the 1990s Salman Khan sang in Balu Sir’s voice. In the period from 1981 to 1989 SPB’s voice was used for other actors too, in addition to singing for Kamal Haasan who was making his way into Hindi films.
‘Ek Hi Bhool’ (EHB) also released in 1981, a few months after ‘EDKL’. It had Rekha (Sadhana) & Jeetendra (Ramkumar) playing a couple who have separated (not divorced) because of some misunderstandings. This leads to Sadhana taking up a job to look after the needs of the family which, now, includes her son (who is born post the separation). It is an Indian cinema, so naturally when the heroine gets a new ‘boss’ it has to be her estranged husband. And he will still be in love with his wife who will try her level-best to avoid him. Then there will be the usual office- gossip involving the two {remember, it had happened with Mala Sinha & Amitabh Bachchan in ‘Sanjog’ (1972)}. Plus, we have Ramkumar who tries to get back with Sadhana using all kinds of tactics including wooing the son with gifts etc. That means ‘EHB’ had all the ingredients of a family drama with an office Casanova (Mazhar Khan) thrown in for good measure.
The film was directed by T Rama Rao, produced by A Purnachandra Rao & had story by K Bhagyaraj. EHB was the remake of Bhagyaraj’s Tamil ‘Mouna Geethangal’ (‘Silent Melodies’ which also released in 1981). Songs of ‘EHB’ were written by Anand Bakshi & tuned by Laxmikant Pyarelal. Playback singers used were SP Balasubramaniam, Asha Bhonsle & Rajeshwari who is Laxmikant’s daughter.
We are remembering Balu Sir on his death anniversary. He passed away on this date in 2020 due to Covid19 related respiratory complications.
This song reminds me of Rafi Saab’s “Kabhi Khud Pe Kabhi Halaat Pe Rona Aaya” & “Hai Duniya Usi Ki Zamaana Usi Ka“.

बेखुदी का बड़ा सहारा है
बेखुदी का बड़ा सहारा है
वरना दुनिया में क्या हमारा है
लोग मरते हैं मौत आने से
लोग मरते हैं मौत आने से
हमको इस ज़िंदगी ने मारा है
बेखुदी का बड़ा सहारा है
आदमी कुछ भी कर नहीं सकता
आदमी कुछ भी कर नहीं सकता
वक़्त ऐसा गुज़र नहीं सकता
वक़्त ऐसा मगर गुज़ारा है
बेखुदी का बड़ा सहारा है
वरना दुनिया में क्या हमारा है
बेखुदी का बड़ा सहारा है
कितनी हल्की है कितनी बोझिल है
कितनी हल्की है कितनी बोझिल है
कोई औरत नहीं ये बोतल है
बंद इस में जहान सारा है
बेखुदी का बड़ा सहारा है
वरना दुनिया में क्या हमारा है
बेखुदी का बड़ा सहारा है
इस मुकद्दर का ये सितम देखो
इस मुकद्दर का ये सितम देखो
डूबते जा रहे हैं हम देखो
और वो सामने किनारा है
बेखुदी का बड़ा सहारा है
वरना दुनिया में क्या हमारा है
लोग मरते हैं मौत आने से
हमको इस ज़िंदगी ने मारा है
बेखुदी का बड़ा सहारा है

Mukesh and his Composers – 27
My apologies are in order but then, I can explain. Or so it seems.
In my recent post “Honee Rahe Ho Kar” on Mukesh’s association with composer Surinder Kohli, I had said that it was the only song sung by Mukesh under his composition. Recently, I found myself looking at this name for one more film. But then he is paired up with another composer called Gurubachan.
And, to add to my ignorance, these two names are listed separately in the latest version of Mukesh Geet Kosh under the music director’s index. One is listed under Surinder Kohli’s name for the unreleased film ‘The Revenger’ (1970s UR) which we have already covered. Another is listed under S Kohli along with Gurubachan for the film ‘Farz aur Pyar’ of 1981. Thus, I ended up citing only one song of Mukesh under composer Surinder Kohli and technically, I was not wrong. Well, read on.
The Polydor EP cover of Farz aur Pyar has 4 songs. Two solos by Vani Jairam, one duet by Surinder Kohli and Raj Farida and one solo by Mukesh. Only Mukesh’s solo in the EP disc is composed by the duo Surinder Kohli-Gurubachan. The rest of the 3 songs are composed by Surinder Kohli in his individual capacity. Further, HFGK lists another 3 songs in the film. One solo each by Mahendra Kapoor and Asha Bhosle and one duet by Rafi Saab and Asha Bhosle. HFGK further states that only the Mukesh solo and the duet of Rafi Saab and Asha Bhosle were composed by the duo.
The movie has a long list of actors such as Bharat Bhushan, Anjana, Satish Arora, Jagdeep, Mehmood Junior, Rita Anchan, Chandrashekhar and many others. It was produced by RKP films, Mumbai. The director of the film was Sudarshan Sharma who was also one of the main lyricist in the film. The producer was Roger D’Mello.
All this confusion galore seems to be justified if we look at the release date which was 5 years after Mukesh passed away in 1976. Along with the apology, I am taking advantage of this confusion and characterizing this song under a separate composer Surinder Kohli-Gurubachan. I hope I am pardoned and considered justified in my approach. 🙂
Coming to the song itself, Mukesh is in his usual best. The voice captivates the mind and lingers for a long while. This does not seem to be unheard or a rare song, but then it’s relatively less heard. What is unheard is probably the short second part of the same song.
I am sure this film has a long and interesting tales of its making. When I referred this film to our Sudhir ji, he immediately replied that he has a copy of it. With such an instant recall, he must be in the know-how of many other aspects of this film. I request him to write more on this film. To me, what matters most is bringing to the fore the magical voice of Mukesh in as many songs that are available out there on the net.
I thank our Avinash ji in providing me more details of the film. He is another strong contender to pick up a song from the film. I would also like to take this opportunity to thank all the noble uploaders of the songs on the net.
So, as we continue to add more songs of Mukesh in his birth centenary year, lets enjoy the legendary voice in a relatively less heard song.
Part II – Short reprisal

Hullo Atuldom
27th June – a favorite music director, singer and one-time actor would have turned 84. His name at birth was Rahul and his parents were Meera & Sachin Dev Burman. Yes, we are thinking of the music influencer who was active from the 1960s to the 1990s – Rahul Dev Burman who was also fondly addressed as Pancham.
He had music in his genes as his father was a well-loved composer and his mother was a Bengali singer and lyricist. It seems his first tunes were used in films as early as 1956/57. He was trained by Ustad Ali Akbar Khan and Pt Samta Prasad. He also considered Salil Chowdhury as his guru. He was an assistant to his father in films like ‘Chalti Ka naam Gaadi’ (1958), ‘Kaagaz Ke Phool’ (1959) and some more films before Mehmood signed him on for giving music to his home production ‘Chhote Nawab’ which released in 1961.
But why am I writing all these ? Which follower of Hindi Film music is not aware of Pancham Da’s background/ biography. We, the followers of HFM, also know that RD Burman has enriched close to 331 films with 1755 (approximately) songs. Of these, the blog has 811. That is we are halfway to having all songs composed by Pancham Da. We still have a huge library of songs to choose from for this post.
Today let us have a romantic song from the 1981 film ‘Love Story’. The film is produced by Rajendra Kumar and jointly directed by him and Rahul Rawail. This was the launch vehicle for star-son Kumar Gaurav, with Vijayta Pandit as his co-star. Danny and Vidya Sinha played the girl’s parents while Rajendra Kumar played the boy’s father (Bina played the mother who dies during child birth). Amjad Khan, Aruna Irani, Gufi Paintal (he passed away recently, may his soul rest in peace) etc. formed the supporting cast. Anand Bakshi and RD Burman gave us some hummable songs which are popular to this day.
The post on the song “Dekho Maine Dekha Hai Ye Ik Sapna” by Nahmji gives more details of the movie, and it makes a good read.
Let us enjoy the song which falls under the ‘sulking-appeasing’ category. It has Lata Mangeshkar and Amit Kumar giving playback for the young couple.
Song-Kaisa tera pyaar kaisa gussa hai tera (Love Story)(1981) Singers- Lata, Amit Kumar,Lyrics- Anand Bakshi, MD-R D Burman

#the Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————
A fortnight back, our ‘Sampaadak-Shri’ Shri Atul ji (if you are in Gujarat you will find this reference very common 🙂 ) posted a song for the ‘full moon occurrence’ which was on 06th January’2023. The song though appeared three days later on 09.01.2023. This song was ‘raat chaandni samay suhaana hai’ from the ‘1960’ movie ‘Basant’.
Today we have the ‘darkest night’ i.e. ‘amaavsya’ and I have a song for this occasion too :). I am presenting a song ‘celebrating the kaali raat’. That reminds me these lines ‘ab kisko kyaa milaa ye muqaddar ki baat hai’ from the song ‘ek chaand aasmaan pe hai’… 🙂
Let us come back to tonight’s post …
This song is a song that I got to listen to on radio in recent months. It sounded familiar, though I was not able to put a finger to it. Moreover I felt that the song may aready be there on the blog. But it was not. So the next step was to find out the details of the song, viz know the name of its movie. It turned out to be ‘Agent 009’. Many sources mentioned it as a movie of the year ‘1980’. However this movie is from the year ‘1981’.
Not just that, it turns out that this movie was again released in ‘1983’ with the title ‘Desh Shatru’, replacing the names of the producer-director-story writer of the earlier title ‘Agent 009’.
The movie “Agent 009” was directed by Chaand for ‘S.V.S. Films, Bombay’. And, the revised version ‘Desh Shatru-1983’ had Vijendra Mittal as director.
The star cast of this movie includes Rehana Sultana, Vijendra Mittal, Madhushala, Zareen, Padma Khanna, Bharat Kapoor, Gautam Bhatia, Manhar Desai, Maruti, Jagdish Raj, Mushtaq Merchant, G. Jilani, Vikas Anand, Nalini Singh, Shesh Chand, Suresh Garg, Vinod Kumar, Ramesh Goyal, S.P. Dubey, Manik, Ramkumar, Thapa, Khalil Khan, Sonam Randhawa, Amit Kumar, Ramesh Jindal, Thakurdas and others.
This movie was passed by Censor Board on 10.07.1981, and with the new title ‘Desh Shatru’ it was passed by Censor Board on 12.04.1983.
According to HFGK Vol-VI (1981-1985) the revised version mentioned the name of the producer-director-writer of the movie as Vijendra Mittal.
Vijendra Mittal was also the lead actor of this re relaesed movie.
“Agent 009-1981/ Desh Shatru-1983” has four songs penned by four different lyricist viz. Verma Malik, Vishweshwar Sharma, Nandi Khanna and Pankaj Gyani.
Here is the list of songs this movie has.
| Sr.No. | Song Title | Lyricist | Singer/s |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | He aag lagaa di paani mein | Verma Malik | Kishore Kumar |
| 02 | Maharaja.., heera hoon kohinoor hoon main | Nandi Khanna | Dilraj Kaur |
| 03 | Sun mere Sai baba, | Vishweshwar Sharma | Chandrani Mukherjee |
| 04 | Teri umr ka saal badhha, ye raat matwaali hai … | Pankaj Gyani | Asha Bhonsle |
Today I am presenting a song sung by Asha Bhonsle and composed by Sonik-Omi from this movie.
This song is a nice song to listen to. It seems to be a ‘party’ song , perhaps celebration a birthday as it mentions ‘teri umr ka saal badhha…’…
It is a celebration song, but it also contains words of caution…
Lekin…
Lekin …
Lekin kaali hai (ye raat 🙂 )
… this song must be having some ‘mystery’ surrounding it 🙂 which we are not privy to.
Readers who have watched either of the movies ‘Agent 009/Desh Shatru’ may be able to tell us more …
I would request knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this movie and its songs.
Let us enjoy this song sung by Asha Bhonsle and written by Pankaj Gyani.
Music (in ‘Pancham’ style) is by Sonik-Omi.
Only the audio of this song is available.
This movie ‘Agent 009-1981/Desh Shatru-1983’ makes their debut on the blog with this song. Also, I think that the lyricist Pankaj Gyani makes a debut as a lyricist on the blog. In the list of lyricist on the statistics page on the blog we have a name Pankaj only but not Pankaj Gyani.
(Note – HFGK mentions both the movies separately as per their year of release and with above information mentioned).

#the Decade of Seventies – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————
(Birth Anniversary – Rajkamal – A tribute)
Today 15th January’2023 is the ninety-fifth birth anniversary of Music Composer Rajkamal ji (born on 15th January 1928 – passed away on 1st September 2005).
Rajkamal has given timeless musical classics such as ‘Saawan Ko Aane Do-1979’, ‘Chashm –E-Buddoor’ to Hindi Film Industry and he also composed the music for B.R. Chopra’s ‘epic serial on TV’ – ‘Mahaabharat’.
He had also sung a few songs in Hindi movies. As a tribute to him on his birth anniversary we will listen to a song sung by him from the ‘1981’ movie ‘Akhand Saubhaagyawati’.
“Akhand Saubhaagyawati” was directed by Rakesh Nahta for ‘Dhwani Prakash, Bombay’. He was also the producer of this movie.
It had Reeta Bhaduri, Arvind Kumar, Kalpana Deewan, Chandrakant Pandya, Nalin Dave, Kanchan Mattu, Kamini Bhatiya, Krupadev Yanik, Javed Mishra, Chandrakant Thakkar, Vishnu Kumar Vyas, Master Bittoo and others.
HFGK Vol-VI (1981-1985) mentions in its foot note for this movie that as per Lyricist-Composer Keshav Rathod (Ahmedabad) this movie was originally made in Gujarati language with the title ‘Amar Rahe Taaro Chaandlo’. Its Hindi edition was made as ‘Akhand Saubhaagyawati’ with re-shooting the whole movie again.
This movie has five songs which were converted to Hindi by Pt. Narendra Sharma from the original songs in Gujarati by Keshav Rathod.
This movie ‘Akhand Saubhaagyawati’ was passed by Censor Board on 10.07.1981.
As mentioned above this movie has five songs written by Narendra Sharma and composed to music by Rajkamal.
Rajkamal himself, Hemlata, and Sushma Shreshtha had given their voices to the songs in this movie.
Today’s song is sung by Rajkamal.
Only the audio of this song is available now. And I guess that the video of this movie and its songs is not available as of now or I could not find them.
Let us now listen to the today’s song which is ‘ojha’ song and talks about the ‘jantar mantar’ by him.
I have not been able to note down correct words at many places and I would request knowledgeable readers to provide the correct words there. And also throw light on this movie and its songs.
With today’s song this movie ‘Akhand Saubhaagyawati-1981’ makes its debut on the blog.
