The Voice of Mukesh #12
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
After being the relative wilderness of unfamiliar artists from 1941 to 1944, Mukesh’s career took an upwards turn in 1945 with the release of ‘Pehli Nazar’. And 1946 turned out to be the best years thus far for him. In this year, Mukesh got singing assignments with five films. He sang for music director MA Mukhtar in the film ‘Chehraa’ – one solo and one duet with
Shamshad Begum. Both these songs have been discussed here on this blog recently, He sang a duet with Beenapani Mukherjee for the film ‘Druban’. There is a little uncertainty about the music director for this film (more about that later). Then, under the baton of Hansraj Behl, he rendered a wonderful duet with Sushila Rani for the film ‘Gwaalan’ –
Lagat Najar Tori Chalaiyya morey gore badan ko. This song also already appears on this blog. Then for the film ‘Raajputaani’, he sang a solo and a duet, under the music direction of Bulo C Rani. And lastly, he sang another duet song for music director Hanuman Prasad in the film ‘Raseeli’. Going up to seven songs in one year was a whole lot better than an average of two or three songs per year for the prior five years (1941-45).

The Voice of Mukesh #9
——————————-
Now this song is really something. The scenario that is presented in these verses, is one that would be close to the hearts of every married couple with the caveat that they live in a joint family. (Those who do not live in a joint family, of any type, may discount this experience. 🙂 ). The song is about the moments of romance that a married couple can steal, maybe in the night, when all other members are blissfully asleep. The husband reaches out to his wife, and the wife complains about all the hard work she has to manage at home during the day. The husband placates her and tries to convince her that the household chores are no big deal and for him, and that for him, she still is as beautiful as the chirpy, naughty mynah bird.

The year 1945 saw the release of two films which had songs by Mukesh. The films are ‘Moorti’ and ‘Pehli Nazar’. The latter, of course, is the film that set Mukesh on the path of stardom as a singer. Let us first talk about ‘Moorti’.

If I send the lyrics of the song “wo ham se chup hain, ham unse chup hain”, for discussion, Atul may, probably send me a return e-mail saying that this song has already been discussed and here is the link – https://atulsongaday.me/2010/01/28/wo-hamse-chup-hain-ham-unse-chup-hain/ unless he reads the entire lyrics. This was exactly what had happened to me whenever I read the first line of the mukhda appearing as a caption of an audio clip on YT. Unfortunately, I did not proceed further than a cursory glance assuming that this was the song from “Sargam” (1950).

Every now and then, we lovers of this blog like to get together in this space and celebrate a milestone or landmark that this blog has achieved.
It may be a landmark to celebrate a particular artist’s hundredth (or even thousandth) song on this blog. Or it may be a landmark to celebrate yet another “century” on the blog song-count itself.
Recently, as we have now got multiple contributors to this blog, we have also celebrated “centuries” by contributors.
Each one of these milestones always gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling.
