Asrar ul Hassan Khan (1 October 1919 − 24 May 2000), better known as Majrooh Sultanpuri, was an Indian Urdu poet and lyricist in the Hindi language film industry. He wrote lyrics for numerous Hindi films. He was one of the dominant musical forces in Indian cinema in the 1950s and early 1960s. He is considered one of the finest/ avant-garde Urdu poets of 20th century literature.

In his career spanning six decades (the first time he wrote for a film was in 1945/46 for KL Saigal starrer ‘Shahjehan’), he worked with many music directors – with some father/son pairs of music directors- Chitragupt & his sons Anand Milind; SD Burman & RD Burman; Roshan & Rajesh Roshan to name a few.

Normally, when I set to write a post, I look up songs listed under “List Of Songs Moviewise” to see if the 1st song from the 1st film, or the last song from the last film of the artist is already present on the blog. Then I look out for songs from films that I have heard umpteen times or know the background of. Very often, I also try to combine the works of two or three artists, who’s birthdays or anniversaries are on the same date or a date or two near each other.

‘Shrimaanji’ (1968) was produced and directed by Ram Dayal under his banner, Mukul Enterprises. The cast included Kishore Kumar, I S Johar, Jeevan, Asha Nadkarni, Meena Rai, Shahida, Asit Sen, Wasti, Murad, Ram Kamlani, Hiralal, Neelam, W M Khan, Veena, Madhumati, Sharifa etc.

With Kishore Kumar and I S Johar in the main roles, apparently, the film belongs to comedy genre. However, the first 30 minutes of the film is melodramatic. It is only when the two protagonists turn to their adulthoods, the story gets switched over to comedy until the last about 30 minutes when the story turns into a murder and court room drama. There is no actress in the lead role in the film.

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #

I discovered this blog in the year 2009 while searching for songs penned by Sahir Ludhianvi. My first comment on this blog was on the song ‘kashtee kaa khaamosh safar hai’ on 15 September 2009 more than two months after this song was posted on the blog on 12 July 2009. I had sent this comment after some hesitation because I was new to blogs and for that matter to internet itself and I was not sure whether my comment will get published. Fortunately, it all went well. 🙂 My comment got published :-

I love the music and specifically Hindi music/songs from old Hindi films and try to collect them in my collection i.e. cassettes or cds . Now a days I am collecting the lyrics for old songs and which contains true poetry and are true gems in our Hindi films history.

The great work being carried by you deserves much accolades and NOT a mere thank you, since the work being carried by you is priceless and very very precious for peoples like me.

After this initial comment, I kept visiting this blog regularly for those songs that I remembered from my younger days and which were missing from my collections of cassettes. My understanding of this blog then was that some of the songs that I was looking for were available here while others were not available.

Today’s song is from an obscure film – Char minar-1956. Though the 50s decade was known for entertaining, Mythological and musical films, there were also plenty of ordinary films, lacking in content, star power and good music. Such films just came and went without leaving any trace. But these lacklustre films actually gave enhanced importance to memorable films.

Char Minar-56 was a Nagina film presentation (which was owned by Ravindra Dave, the Director of Nageena-51. After this film’s tremendous success he opted for its name for his company). The film was produced and directed by Ravindra Dave. Not only that, the assistant director was Narendra Dave, Assistant Photographers were Pratap Dave and Arvind Dave, Assistant Editor was Balwant Dave and the production manager was Surendra Dave. It looked like an employment exchange for Dave’s family !

Alphabetical list of actresses who have lip synced in Asha Bhonsle’s voice- Part II

(Asha Bhonsle singing for Actresses whose name begin with the letter B)

In the first episode of this series, we gave a list of actresses whose name began with A and who had lip synced in Asha Bhonsle’s voice in the posts of the blog. That post covered a song picturised on an actress whose name started with the letter A who had not lip synced in Asha Bhonsle’s voice in the blog till that time.

In this second episode, I will give a list of actresses whose name begins with B and who have already had songs in the blog that were sung by Asha Bhonsle and were picturised on them. Unlike the letter A which yielded 30 plus actresses, there are only 10 actresses with letter B in the blog :-
