Today’s song is the last and final song from the film Chhota Bhai-1966. It was a family drama cum social film. There was another film of the same title in 1949 also.

Hindi film makers seem to be in favour of titles starting with Chhota (11 films), Chhoti(17), Chhote (6) as well as Bada (4 films), Badi (9), and Bade (12 films)- a totol of almost 60 films describing the size !

There were some Hindi films which either flopped or just made it to be the average performers at the box office after they had theatrical release. But over the years, they have attained the status of cult classics. The films in my minds are, Chetan Anand’s ‘Neecha Nagar’ (1946) for pioneering the parallel cinema, Raj Kapoor’s ‘Jaagte Raho’ (1956) for its social commentary, Guru Dutt’s ‘Kaagaz Ke Phool’ (1959) for its cinematic style, Dev Anand’s ‘Guide’ (1965) for its progressive themes, Raj Kapoor’s ‘Mera Naam Joker’ (1970) for its philosophical depth and ‘Jaane Bhi Do Yaaron’ (1983) for raising a couple of serious issues facing the country in a satirical way. The list is not exhaustive. I also feel that I should add ‘Shakti’ (1982) in this list for the powerful performances of Dilip Kumar and Amitabh Bachchan as father and son, respectively who are in the opposite side of the law.

We in this blog often pay tributes of HFM artists on the occasion of their birthdays as well as their remembrance anniversaries. These artists are typically singers, lyricists, music directors and actors. But there are others in the background who also contribute in the creation of songs and movies. Since most of them work behind thge scene, they often go uncredited even though their contribution in creating a composition could be of vital importance.

Take the example of the song under discussion. The song being discussed in the post is the iconic song from “Julie”(1975) viz-“Dil kya kare jab kisi se kisee ko pyaar ho jaaye”. People may exclaim how this song is not yet covered in the blog. People would be justified in wondering why this song has not yet been covered when every other song of the movie is already covered.

However, the film failed at the box office. They were again paired in ‘Tezaab’ (1988) which became a great success at the box office. This success led to both of them working as a lead pair in the next 12 films.

Mukesh and his Co-Singers –20

This post today brings us to the 900th song of Mukesh on the blog. This is a significant milestone, considering that the total songs of by Mukesh are just about one thousand. As we get closer to that number, the songs are becoming harder to trace.

Today, 22 July is legendary singer Mukesh’s birthday. (22 July 1923 – 27 August 1976)

And this is his 900th song on the blog.  As such, it is a very special post. 

There is a possibility that this could be his last century on the blog and that he is unlikely to reach the magical 4-digit tally. However, I shall leave no stone unturned to disprove myself. Long ago, I had even made a mental note and earmarked a unique song to post as his 1000th song on the blog, if we could manage to do so. However, it was covered by one of the editors. Can anyone guess that unique song ?
