What is global capitalism theory?

Global capitalism refers to the concept of a global economy dominated by globalizing corporations and those who own and control them, operating beyond national boundaries and interests.

What are the three theories of capitalism?

These include laissez-faire or free-market capitalism, state capitalism, and welfare capitalism. Different forms of capitalism feature varying degrees of free markets, public ownership, obstacles to free competition, and state-sanctioned social policies.

What are the 4 types of capitalism?

In our analysis, we found it useful to classify capitalist economies into four categories: oligarchic capitalism, state-guided capitalism, big-firm capitalism, and entrepreneurial capitalism.

*******************************************

The above is just to get to the idea of “Bade log” in todays context. We are in the middle of third decade of 21st century, a quarter of which we all have seen/ lived through.

Alhamdullillah for everything, the grand plan of the Almighty takes shape in the ways he ordains. We humans must just bear it, as we cannot change anything. We can try and equip ourselves, using the faculties granted by the Almighty, to deal with the things destined. With wisdom, dignity, patience, and faith.

We are grappling as a human race, with fears of food shortages, natural calamities like wildfires, unnatural calamities like a nuclear war, plus the biggest fear of all, giving the power over fate, to the unwise, the undignified, the impatient and the faithless.

The biggest responsibility and purpose of the humans in the universe is to be worthy of its creator. We have been given the faculties, granted to no other being. This is the simple purpose of creation; scientists/thinkers/philosophers are trying to find for millennia.

This is “chhotta munh aur badi baat”, but just to state things in the proper perspective as things stand.

The song under discussion is from the film “Phandebaaz” 1978. R. D. Burman is the composer, with lyrics of Anand Bakshi. Mohammed Rafi is singing for Dharmendra and Amit Kumar is singing for Dharmendra’s partner, the actor I cannot name.

These 3 songs are posted in the blog.

Song Date of post
Dulhan khoobsurat hai.. abhi gyaarah nahin baje hain 27 May 2009
Mohabbat mein aji kya aap apna imtihaan denge 28 June 2013
Duniya mein paise binaa kaise hum jiyenge 30 December 2023

Helen is also seen in the song. The filming is done in areas of South Bombay, showing some landmark buildings and roads of the city, how it all looked in 1978. This could be the first duet song of Mohammed Rafi – Amit Kumar to feature in the blog. I had seen a photograph of Kishore Kumar sitting on the floor with a young boy next to the “maiyyat” of Rafi Sahab. It must have been taken on 1st August, 1980 at home, before the funeral procession. The boy is the younger son of Kishore Kumar, looked exactly like Amit Kumar. I mistook him for Amit Kumar. But checked recently that Amit Kumar is much older, and here he is singing duets with Rafi Sahab.

Dharmendra – Rafi songs are not over yet. More landmark songs remain to be posted. I have posted so many over the last 2 months, that a series could have been made.

Remembering Mohammed Rafi Sahab – 101st Birth Anniversary

“Naghmon ka karwaan” is unleashed with this one name. We the Rafians are not in the mood to yet finish the centenary celebrations. The celebrated artist, the legend is celebrated everyday in various forms, through his songs, through the many fans, ever increasing, with newly exposed people. Though all the songs are 4 decades old, but somehow, they never grow old. The younger generation of new fans is ever increasing, and fan clubs abound in the whole world. The musically aware people, when they become aware of the phenomena called Mohammed Rafi, they are surprised and shocked, that where was he, all this while, how come they did not know of him. Then they come to know, that there lived a playback singer in India, who left for heavenly abode on 31st July 1980. But the songs and voice lives on, in the hearts and in the sound waves of the world.

Hullo Atuldom

Back to writing a post after a full month, last one was on 6th November to pay tribute to Sanjeev Kumar. In this period I have been getting gentle nudges by our Guruji, enquiring about the lull in my writing. He even suggested that I strike a deal with Sadanandji, about pacing our landmark posts (at that point Sadanandji was four short of his century). I assured Arunkumarji that by the time I get back to writing Sadanandji would have hit his century and gone far ahead; he is sitting on 1014 currently.

I have been a little pre-occupied attending a few weddings, accompanied with learning to shake a leg for the dances to execute at the pre-wedding sangeet and other wedding related celebrations. A few of my nephews got married in this wedding season.

Some years ago, I did start to write post of some colourful songs, shot outdoors. There are so many of them in hindi films, especially in colour movies, that they are countless. I have a weakness for scenic waterfalls, mountains, lakes, snow peaks, rivers, huge trees etc.

Today, I have dropped two posts in preparation, as I realized belatedly that they are posted. One had Dharmendra and other had Vinod Mehra, incidentally, singing Rafi solos, in Kashmir.

In my posts of the song “Jiya Jiya Re” (Jab Tak hai Jaan) I have mentioned that there must be reels and reels of footage shot of mountains, rivers of naturally beautiful locations in Kashmir, which were not used. For photographers would not be able to resist. In fact in one of the songs mentioned above, they had used shot visuals in the song, without the actors actually going there and shooting for the song. The shots looked like amalgamated with the actors singing in greenery.

Rest in Peace – Dharmendra (8/12/1937 – 24/11/2025)

During last week I have written posts of two Dharmendra -Hema Malini songs, and as I said, youtube was throwing up more such songs at me. I have saved many songs now featuring Dharmendra. Some of these are outdoor songs, showing refreshing locations, like riverside, mountains, trees etc.

Dharmendra has left this mortal world, where everything is mortal. We can hope that some memories will remain immortal till this “faani” intelligent humanity’s existence. So “Lafaani” is nothing. Dharmendra himself was among many things, an urdudaan, and wrote shayari in urdu. During his heydays as a star, he appeared shy of media. Only lately he has been giving some interviews and appearing on TV shows. That is when the real personality has come to light.

Legends Don’t Die, They Leave An Immortal Legacy

I was as shocked as the entire world who loved the rustic original He-Man of the Hindi Film Industry – Dharmendra Singh Deol.

The curtains have fallen on the magnificent career of Dharmendra, one of Indian cinema’s most endearing and charismatic figures, who passed away on Monday, November 24, 2025, at the age of 89. His passing leaves a colossal void, marking the end of an era defined by his unparalleled charm, raw talent, and a filmography that became the very backbone of Bollywood.

Dharmendra was a paradox on screen—a formidable action hero with the innocence and tenderness of a poet. This rare combination allowed him to effortlessly inhabit the most diverse roles, captivating generations of audiences.

#The Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————

In this post we pay our tributes to actor Dharmendra who passed away yesterday on 24th November 2025 at the age of 89 years.

Everybody has to leave this mortal world. Dharmendra was ailing for last several days so everybody feared the inevitable. He has left this mortal world but memories of his films and the songs from his films will remain with the film goers who watched his films. Moreover his fans also admire him as a nice human being that he came across as in many of his interviews and public appearances.

I had thought that Rafi-Lata duets were all posted in the blog. I have looked in the list some years back, trying to find a duet of these two for the Rafi series. Among the old songs of 50’s and 60’s there were none to be found. Only one film in the 60s had a song, which was a mythological movie and the song audio video was very bad. Even then I had saved it but eventually posted that group song from “Kranti” and that was that.

Then out of the blue I saw a duet posted by Sadanand Kamath Sir. Then I realised, that I may not have gone through the whole list, and left the job halfway, losing hope. For once, I gave up too soon.

This is a role reversal to “Abhi na jaao chhod ke, ke dil abhi bhara Nahin”. Here Hema Malini is trying to stop Dharmendra from going to his job. She is calling him ‘Raja” and asking him not to leave her alone, take leave from work, or better to leave the job if he is not getting holiday. The filmy or flimsy situation, Lata Mangeshkar’s playback, Hema Malini looking resplendent in a red jacket/suit, begging. Dharmendra on his part is just trying to get away on whatever transport he can find and enjoying all the attention. All that bhav is good for the hero anyway. Songs like “haay haay yeh majboori”, “Na ja mere hamdam”, “bataa doon kya laana” and others convey the similar emotion in different ways.
