The association of Pankaj Babu and RC Boral starts from their coming together as artists and producers at Calcutta Radio. No specific dates are available, but the expected period is the second half of the 1920s. This period also coincides with the prime of the silent films in India. Calcutta had become a main production center. Being recognized as music directors at Radio Calcutta, it was natural for RC Boral and Pankaj Mullick to be called upon for creating the orchestral music for silent films. In the days of soundless films, the music and sound effects were presented live in the theatre, using a live orchestra. What we recognize as background music today, was very much a ‘foreground’ entity in those years. The mood and the action on screen, was duly accompanied by live music that was played by the orchestra sitting just below and front of the screen. Probably no recordings of such musical works were made, else that in itself would have been a very valuable treasure for lovers of film music. wo films from 1931 are identified as the ones for which this pair had prepared the orchestral ‘foreground’ music. Produced by International Filmcraft, the title of the films are ‘Chesher Maye’ (‘चेशेर मेय’) and ‘Chorkanta’.

On October 10th 2014, the frozen in time diva Bhanurekha Ganeshan (the birth name of the person we know as just Rekha) turns 60. I had a tough time trying to select a song for the occasion. At first I thought I will do the usual of finding an Amitabh- Rekha song as their birthdates are 10th and 11th October. Then on going through “the list of songs movie wise” and comparing it with the list on MYSWAR.com I realized that the song sung by Rekha in her own voice is still to be posted.

Suraiyya is one singer whose songs are now almost fully covered in the blog and we have the full, accurate and verified list of her songs. There are now less than twenty Suraiyya songs that remain to be discussed. The encouraging fact is that around four or five of these songs are available as of now. Yesterday nahm discussed one song which I was unable to locate till now. Today I am discussing another as yet unavailble Suraiyya song.
