6th February 2022 followers of Indian music, across the genres of Bhav-geet, Film Sangeet, Bhajans and any other that we can think of, lost the most accomplished, sought after, loved (& any other add-ons that we know of) singer. She went by the name Lata Mangeshkar fondly addressed as Lata Didi by the multitude of her followers. She was the go-to voice (a modern day term for first choice) of all music composers for their debut films – remember ‘ghar aaja ghir aayi’ RD Burman, ‘Parasmani’ & its songs which was the first released film of Laxmi- Pyare. Even Madan Mohan is said to have approached Lata Mangeshkar to sing for his debut film ‘Aankhen’ but could get her into the recording room only for his next ‘ Adaa’ which released in 1951.

In the 1970s, Basu Chatterjee was one of those Hindi film directors who made films on the stories which a majority of the filmi audience could relate to their own every day life. Starting with ‘Saara Aakaash’ (1969), he made the classic films such as ‘Rajanigandha’ (1974), ‘Chhoti Si Baat’ (1975), ‘Chitchor’ (1976), ‘Khatta Meetha’ (1977), ‘Swaami’ (1977), ‘Baaton Baaton Mein’ (1979), ‘Shaukeen’ (1982) etc. But in 1990s and thereafter, Basu Chatterjee seems to have lost his magic touch to his ‘middle of the road’ cinemas.

On 30th May 2021 we had a post to the song from the film “Ye Teraa Ghar Ye Meraa Ghar” (2001) – a film that highlighted the problems a house-owner faces when he wants his, long-time tenant, to vacate his house so that the owner can sell the house & solve his financial debts.

19th June is the birthday of actor Raj Kiran. He will be 73 today.

Recently I saw Mahesh Bhatt’s ‘Arth’ (1982) and I thought such a good-looking person. He was playing the part of Raj who falls in love with the recently jilted Pooja (Shabana Azmi); that was an odd pairing. But they looked good together. Raj Kiran had made his debut in 1975 through BR Ishara’s ‘Kaagaz Ki Nao’ with Sarika as his co-star. His next release was ‘Shiksha’ (1978) which was directed by S Ramanathan. It was produced by Tarachand Barjatya – meaning Rajshri productions.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No.79
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years ago (14 April 2013), six songs from five different movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Post No Song Title Name of the movie Remarks
7895 Husn kehta ja raha hai Humaayun (1945) Movie YIPPEED by now
7896 Main to odhoon gulaabi chundariya aaj Humaayun (1945) Movie YIPPEED by now
7897 Karte ho mujhse kitni muhobbat Bekhabar (1965) 6 songs covered out of 7 by now
7898 So jaa re so jaa mere raajdulaare Zimbo (1958) Movie YIPPEED by now
7899 Aate hain chale jaate hain Yaadgaar(1984) One song covered out of 7 by now
7900 Kaun meri preet ke pehle Parineeta (1953) Movie YIPPEED by now

We observe that three movies (out of five) whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (14 April 2013) have since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with two movies that are unYIPPEED and therefore eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (14 April 2023).

The first unYIPPEED movie has already been taken up earlier in the day under BTYC.

The second movie that is eligible for BYTC today is “Yaadgaar”(1984).

Hullo Atuldom

At the outset let me wish an active Atulite on his birthday. These days his status has changed from ‘active’ to ‘hyper-active’ Atulite. He is the major guest contributor for the blog these days. It is almost like he has taken it upon himself that the blog should continue its race towards centuries at superfast pace; so much so that, the century number 174 happened in 28 days- the fastest since 23rd March 2018. In fact January 2023 saw a 100 posts- the last time this happened was also in March of 2018 (118 posts). 53 of the 100 posts of January was by this hyper-active guest contributor who goes by the name Avinash Scrapwala- and it should be kept in mind that none of his posts are SCRAP they are all good to read with accurate lyrics and most of his 688 posts have lyrics in Devnagri script too. (the number for this stands at 410).
