‘Anjaam’ (1994) was produced by Rita Rawail and Maharukh Jokhi under the banner of Shiv-Bharat Films. The film was directed by Rahul Rawail. The star cast included Madhuri Dixit and Shah Rukh Khan in primary roles supported by Deepak Tijori (guest appearance), Kiran Kumar, Sudha Chandran, Tinu Anand, Johny Lever, Kalpana Iyer, Himani Shivpuri, Beena, Rumi Jaffrey, Birbal etc. This was the first film of Shah Rukh Khan with Madhuri Dixit and his 3rd film in a negative role after the box office successes of his earlier two films with negative (rather anti-hero) roles in ‘Baazigar’ (1993) and ‘Darr’ (1993).

Today’s song is a very rare song from an obscure and unheard of film – Anjaam-1940. Films with the title Anjaam were made in 1940, 1952, 1968, 1978, 1986 and 1993. Today’s film was the first and then in every decade one film was made on this title. First I thought that this title wins the highest number, but NO. The honour of ‘same title maximum films made’ goes to INSAAF, which was made 7 times !

The film that is reaching its Yippeee station today is the 1952 film ‘Anjaam’. A journey that started for this film a little over seven years ago – on 1st Jan, 2011. Just out of curiosity, I checked the list of posts for the songs posted on that date, I find that none of the songs on that day were new year songs. My curiosity heightened, I checked the previous new year days and the ones after this date. I find that on our blog, the tradition of new year songs starts with 1st Jan, 2012. Prior to that, on the three new years that came, we did not specifically have any new year songs. But that is a curiosity, to be handled in another post.

Today (25 june 2017) is the 93rd birth anniversary of Madan Mohan (25 june 1924- 14 july 1975). We in this blog traditionally cover songs of artists on their anniversaries. Madan Mohan is a key artist for this blog and we indeed have discussed his songsextensively in the blog, not only on his anniversaries, but also on other days.

Mohammed Rafi – ‘अ’  से  ‘ह’ तक  (From ‘अ’ to ‘ह’) – 16
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

‘ज’
“जब लड़का कह दे हाँ और लड़की कह दे ना”

A phrase in English language – ‘man of God’ is generally used for a person whose personality abounds with all qualities that are good in a human being. Some people that we know to be religious, humble, polite, kind, caring, helpful etc., we apply this phrase when we talk of them.

Talking of Rafi Sb, I have heard Nalin ji (Nalin Shah, the film historian and author) often use another phrase that is decidedly more special. He refers to Rafi Sb as ‘God’s own man’. We can discuss the etiology and the import of these phrases in detail. But of course the phrase used by Nalin ji, has a very special connotation. Some special people will be known as ‘man of God’, by the qualities we like about them, and the manner in which we see them interact with others around them. But there is a more rare breed of people, who have something special, an aura about them, that simply their presence gives a feeling of being close to the Supreme. I have never been in the presence of Rafi Sb, but hearing from those who have met him and interacted with him, one gets a feeling that the phrase applied by Nalin ji is very appropriate.

Today (14 july 2015) is the 40th death anniversary of Madan Mohan (25 june 1924- 14 july 1975). Madan Mohan made his debut as a music director in 1950 with “Aankhen”(1950). He composed some 630 plus songs in 90 plus movies in his 25 year long career. It includes movies whose music were released after his death. I have a detailed moviewise breakup of all Madan Mohan songs which I will discuss sometime in future. The blog at present has 461 Madan Mohan compositions out of 630, so we have another 170 odd Madan Mohan compositions to go.

As a tribute to Madan Mohan, here is a song from “Anjaam”(1952). This song is sung by Hamida Bano who was predominantly a singer from the 1940s. This song sounds very much like a song from 1940s.

Today (25 june 2015) is the 91st birth anniversary of Madan Mohan (25 june 1924-14 july 1975). When I was looking at the list of Madan Mohan movies and their songs chronologically, I found that the first five Madan Mohan movies, viz “Aankhen”(1950), “Adaa”(1951), “Madhosh”(1951), “Shabistaan”(1951) and “”Aashiana”(1951) are already YIPPEED in the blog and all the songs of these movies have already been covered in the blog.

When the music is by Ganesh, one can be assured of a very lilting and melodious fare. ‘Anjaam’, a B grade film from 1968, has got a treasure of some excellent grade A music. Four wonderful songs from this film are already represented on this blog. Here is the fifth song from this film, another wonderful memory from the radio years.
