Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No.83
————————————————————————————–
On this date ten years ago (21 April 2013), eight songs from eight different movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-
| Post No | Song Title | Name of the movie | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7943 | Kaahe ko diya jalaaya | Moorti (1945) | Movie YIPPEED in the blog with this song |
| 7944 | Main chaand hoon ya chaandni | Chaandni (1942) | 5 songs covered out of 7 by now |
| 7945 | Moti chugne gayi re hansi maansarowar teer | Chheen La Aazaadi(1947) | 4 songs covered out of 9 by now |
| 7946 | Tumpe ham qurbaan qismat ban jaaye | Baghdad (1961) | one song covered out of 8 by now |
| 7947 | Lagi mast nazar ki kataar | Sehraa (1963) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
| 7948 | Din bure hote hain | Sangdil(1967) | 2 songs covered out of 5 by now |
| 7949 | Pyaar ki ye baaten hamko na samjhaao | Baazi(1968) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
| 7949 | Allah bhi hai mallah bhi hai | Maan (1954) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
We observe that four movies (out of eight) whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (on 21 april 2013) have since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with four unYIPPEED movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge (BTYC) today.
“Baghdad”(1961) is one of BTYC eligible movies today (21 april 2023).

3500 – a good number to be. It is divisible by 7. Gives us 500.
Lets take a stock of the major numbers.
We complete 3500 days – unbroken sequence (almost 😉 ).
500 weeks.
14,000+ songs.
And, for the ticker watchers, we are just going to touch 10,100,000 visits to this blog.
In terms of artist stats, some very interesting total numbers,
486 – Music Directors + 109 posts with [*Unattributed] MD status
659 – Lyricists + 402 posts with [*Unattributed] Lyricist status
870 – Singers + 93 posts with unidentified singer names
Keeping out the unattributed and the unidentified, we are managing a whopping total of 2015 unique artists
I have written this phrase before. Our blog is history in the making – history of Hindi film music – one song at a time.

“Baghdad” (1961) was a Southern Movies production. It was directed by T R Sundaram. The movie had M. G. Ramchandran, Vyjyantimala, Gopal Krishna, T. S. Balliah, Nambiar, Sandhya, Helen etc in it. That makes it one of the rare movies where M G Ramchandran was seen in a Hindi movie. I wonder if it was a dubbed movie. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this movie.

By now I am coming round to the view that obscure B grade movies could well outnumber the well known A grade movies as far as old Hindi movies are concerned. Music of such movies could well turn out to be a treasure trove that has not yet been fully discovered. I continue to find one gem after another when I look for songs from such forgotten movies.
