Today’s song is from a Muslim Social film ‘Paak Daman’ (1957).

Why I am specifying Muslim social is because it was a film depicting the Muslim social culture in India. India is a country where there are many religions living together for hundreds of years. The major 8 religions in India are Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Judaism and Zoroastrianism (Parsee). There are hundreds of smaller religions thriving in India , apart from these.

Today’s song is from the film Kundan-1955.

The film was made by Minerva Movietone, produced and directed by Sohrab Modi. I liked Sohrab Modi very much. Not only because he could deliver long dialogues forcefully, but because his life story was very inspiring. In India there were few other filmmakers and directors who handled topics normally considered Taboo by others and some filmmakers who never hesitated to make films on unusual themes, when the trend was to make entertaining, musical and romantic films. Sohrab Modi was perhaps the only filmmaker who made films to expose the social ills through the cinematic medium from his first film.

Today (12 November 2023) is “Deepaawali”, the festival of lights.

In some of my earlier posts discussing Deepawali, I have opined that Indians are not performing Laxmi Puja the right way and that is why we are not being adequately blessed by Goddess Laxmi. In those posts, I alluded to our habits (passed down to us over generations) that was keeping us poor.

Today’s song is a lovely qawwali from the film Paak Daman-1957. The story of this film seems to be very popular and well known, because I find that several films were made on this one story and with the same title. The first film came in 1931 as Paak Daman. Then came Paak Daman Raqasa-1932, Paak Daman-1940 and Paak Daman-1957. Meanwhile a Pakistani film Paak Daman was also made in 1969.

Regulars on the blog are aware that, besides being music-lovers and Hindi movie buff, many of the blog members also love ‘cricket’ and ‘rail/train’, or if I am not wrong especially the Indian Railways.

Travelling by train is something which is always interesting. Most of us enjoy and love it. It brings back many memories from our childhood days too.

Today 10th April is the ‘Remembrance Anniversary’ of writer and lyricist Fauq Jami.

Not much information is available about this lyricist and I think he was a forgotten lyricist of his time.

As per information available on some sources on internet Fauq Jami has written songs for three movies i.e. ‘Guzaaraa-1954’, ‘Saawan Ko Aane Do-1979’ and one unreleased movie from the seventies (which we are going to introduced today).
