#The Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
#Drunkard Songs -4 #
Today’s drunkard song is from the movie ‘Mawaali-1983’.
‘Mawaali-1983’ was directed by K. Bapaiyya for ‘Padmalaya Studios, Madras’. G. Hanumantha Rao was the producer of this ‘social’ movie passed by Censor Board on 28.10.1983.
By this time in 1983 I was studying in Std-XI with ‘PCM+ Vocational Subjects’. But, I was more interested in cricket and Rajesh Khanna movies than in my studies. But even then I had not watched this movie ‘Mawaali-1983’. I was averse to these Jeetendra movies coming from South directors except ‘Himmatwaalaa’ (since it was a first of its kind and discussed a lot then), ‘Tohfaa’ and ‘Maqsad’. ‘Tohfaa’ had some good songs and I watched it with many interested family members who had assigned me the task of booking the tickets for this movie.

This article is the 20400th song post in the blog.
| Blog Day : | 6554 | Post No. : | 20400 |
Previous blog century (20300th song post) appeared on 30 May 2026. 29 days later, we reach the next blog century viz blog post number 20400.
It appeared like we reached the coveted summit of song post 20000 just recently. And now we havealready added another 400 songs to our tally.
In case of the previous century, the century song was identifed in advance. Here in this case, I decided on the song last evening, but when I looked at the songs that preceded the century song, I decided that the century song needed to sound as good as the songs that preceded it early in the day. So I have picked a song that I had earlier earmarked for some other special occasion. I decided that a century post is as special an occasion as any for that song.
This song is from “Apne Paraaye”(1980). This movie in a way is a throwback to those days of yore when story of the movie was taken from a novel written by an eminent littérateur and the movie made on the story would be faithful to the story line contained in the literary masterpiece.
“Apne Paraaye”(1980) was based on a Bengali novel, ‘Nishkriti’ (1917) by Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay. Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay needs no introduction, of course. His stories have been made into a large number of well known movies in several languages. His story of “Devdas” itself has been made into over 20 movies in various languages, four of them being in Hindi alone.

Moving ahead with the series on Asha Bhosle singing for actresses whose first names begin with the letter “A”, we come to Archana Joglekar.
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, three actresses from the Marathi film industry crossed over to Hindi cinema with varying degrees of success. They were Archana Joglekar, Ashwini Bhave, and Varsha Usgaonkar. Although the Hindi film industry was based in Bombay (now Mumbai), only a few leading Marathi actresses were able to establish themselves in Hindi films. Usha Kiran and Jayshree Gadkar were notable exceptions. Most other Marathi actresses found work primarily in supporting roles.
I first started noticing Archana Joglekar (without knowing her name at the time) in the early 1980s as a model and in Marathi programmes on Bombay Doordarshan. By the mid-1980s, she had also begun appearing in Marathi films. Soon thereafter, she made her Hindi film debut with Mardon Mein Mard (1987). She subsequently played a leading role in an Odia film and, later in her career, also acted in a Tamil film. During the 1990s, she gradually reduced her film appearances but expanded her repertoire by working in television serials. It was also during this period that she married Dr. Nirmal Muley and moved to the United States.

For my next song we turn to a Lata Mangeshkar melody – “Sultana Mera Naam Hai” from Sangram (1976) which is a lively cabaret-style dance number composed by Bappi Lahiri with lyrics by Gauhar Kanpuri. It is a nightclub-oriented songs and reflects the changing musical trends of the mid-1970s, when Western rhythms and cabaret sequences had become popular in Hindi cinema.
Musically, the song combines a strong dance beat with brass instrumentation and a catchy refrain. Bappi Lahiri’s arrangement is energetic but not yet as disco-driven as the style he would become famous for a few years later. Instead, it sits somewhere between the traditional Hindi film cabaret of the 1960s and the emerging disco sound of the late 1970s.

Hrishikesh Mukherjee has been known to make family-oriented films with intricate human relationship issues presented through light comedy. ‘Anand’ (1970), Baawarchi’ (1972), ‘Chupke Chupke’ (1975), ‘Gol Maal’ (1979), ‘Khubsoorat’ (1980), ‘Naram Garam’ (1981) and ‘Rang Birangi’ (1983) are some of his well-known films in this genre. There is another of his film, ‘Kisee Se Na Kehnaa’ (1983) which is making a debut on the Blog after about 18 years since the Blog started. This is a lesser-known film of Hrishikesh Mukherjee. I had heard the name of the film but was not aware that it was directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee until a couple of days back.
‘Kisee Se Na Kehnaa’ (1983) was produced by Jaywant Pathare and Ashok Rawat and was directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee. The cast included Farooque Sheikh and Deepti Naval in lead roles supported by Utpal Dutt, Saeed Jafferi, S N Bannerjee, Deven Verma, Lalita Kumari, Asha Sharma, Ketki Dave, Kanu Roy etc. Prema Narayan and Yunus Parvez made the guest appearances in the film.

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.

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 :-
