When one is disturbed, there is nothing like a soothing bhajan to calm one’s nerves. The music and the singing of the bhajan has a calming influence on the mind, and the philosophical content of the lyrics makes us see things in perspective. Bhajans make us realise that living creatures (including humans) are mortals and we are mere puppets in the grand scheme of things. Things are not supposed to work out according to our wishes, so we should better reconcile ourselves with whatever is in store for us.

Talat Mehmood had sung most of his duet songs mainly with Suraiyya, Geeta Dutt, Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsle and Sudha Malhotra. I get a feel of an affinity between the singers on the one hand and the actors on the screen on the other hand when I listen to Talat Mehmood-Geeta Dutt duets. This combination is pleasing to my ears and gives credence to what is intended in the lyrics. The song which comes to my mind in this context is ‘armaan bhare dil ki lagan tere liye hai’ from JAAN PEHCHAAN (1950).

There are some songs which I feel are better heard than watched. The evergreen song “aapki nazron ne samjha pyar ke kaabil mujhe” was one of my favourites and I had pinned great hopes on its video clip. I was disappointed the moment I watched the video clip of this song. Even now whenever I listen to this song on the audio clip, Darmendra’s expressionless face comes before my eyes which act as a speed breaker in the smooth flow of an otherwise melodious song.

In the financial markets to which I belonged until my retirement, there is an oft repeated remark that not even a die-hard practitioner or expert in the financial markets can claim that he knows everything about the markets. This is mainly on account of the fact that financial markets are dynamic by nature. How true this maxim is in the realm of old Hindi film songs where dynamism flows from unearthing old gems and some related unknown anecdotes.
