#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
(Birthday – Music Composer-Rajesh Roshan)
Today 24th May is the birthday of music director-lyricist Rajesh Roshan (born on 24.05.1955, some sources mentione the year as 1953). He is one of my favorite all time composer.
I had written about him in couple of my earlier posts on the blog. What I wrote about him in the past is worth repeating it on this occasion. During my school days, our cricket playing group used to meet every evening at the Colony recreation club. after going throught the news papers/magazines kept there, we would start discussing various topics. Hindi films and Songs were naturally a topic of common interest. Our favourite films and songs frequently got discussed there.

“Rooh Pyasi Hai Pareshan Hai” sung by Anwar, is written by Gauhar Kanpuri and composed by Hemant Kumar. It is a very short title song of “Oos Raat Ke Baad” (1970).
We usually have seen and heard the haunting title songs from suspense/horror/thriller movies in the voices of female play back singers. Here’s a haunting song sung by a male singer.
This movie was produced and directed by Y B Siraj for 51 Cine Commercial corporation, Bombay. The movie had Sanjeev Kumar, Tanuja, Sailesh Kumar, Shaminder, Kishore Bhat (introducing), Aruna Irani, Madan Puri, Tarun Bose, Bela Bose, Asit Sen, Pravin Paul, Sundar, Amrit Patel, Dinesh Hingoo, Masterji etc in it.

The song being coovered in this post is the final song from the movie ‘Naram Garam-1981’. Lyrics for this song were shared by our dear Prakashchandra jee long back.

Today’s song is the last and final song from the coloured social film Rahgir-1969.
I specifically mentioned coloured film, because it was still a novelty for the audience. Even in the 60’s, a few films were made in B & W, but by the end of 1960’s decade they were a thing of the past. Rahgir-1969 was a sort of a hybrid film – mixture of a regular film and a New Wave cinema. The audience was not yet ready for the New Wave Cinema, but the excellent films presented by the select producers and the directors their acceptance was achieved soon. The film was released on 2-7-1969 .
Film Rahgir-1969 was a remake of the celebrated Bengali film “Palatak” (1963). Tarun Majumdar, the director of the remake, had directed the Bengali original along with two co-directors – Sachin Mukherjee and Dilip Mukherjee. The film was based on the story “Angti Chattujjer Vai” by Manoj Basu. Hemant Kumar, who composed the music for the Bengali film, also composed the score for the remake.

After covering songs released in 1900s (mostly from 1960s to 1980s), this becomes my first post covering a song released in the current millenium that started from 2000.
Many HF music lovers consider the golden era of HFM as finished in 1970. For me personally, it stopped in 1980. Not that post 1980 there was not good music but it was too few and far between. So if till the 70s decade, every year 7 or 8 movies out of 10 had good music, then it fell down to 4-5 out of 10 in 80s and 2-3 out of 10 during the 90. But post 2000 it became 2-3 out of every 25 movies released. These are entirely my figures from my gut feeling, I don’t attribute them to any study or report. Therefore, you have been seeing my posts from primarily the 60s to the 80s decades.

A R Rahman – The Musician of 21st Century – 8
The film “Dil Se” released in 1998, and by this time A. R. Rehman, has revolutionized the Hindi film music. With the south Indian flavour to his compositions, with various talented singers from the region were flooding the hindi film music world. Mostly his films would be originally made in Tamil, Telegu or Malayalam, and later remade in hindi or sometimes just dubbed in hindi.
His music and rerecording the songs in hindi required, rewriting the lyrics in hindi/urdu to mean and sound the same in hindi films. It was a difficult task for lyricists like Mehboob and later on Gulzar to retain the meaning and spirit of the earlier songs, while converting them for the larger hindi film audience.

A R Rahman – The Musician of 21st Century – 7
The revival of the series on A. R. Rehman is beginning with this post. The last post in the series was this song.
I apologise for my tardiness in leaving the series like this for 2.5 years. None but myself to be blamed for not taking the targets/tasks seriously. Maybe that is the reason none of my series appear in the list of series posted in the blog.
Koyi nai, I plough on doggedly. Not that it is a hard task to find ARR gems, sometimes forgotten in decades old fog. Take the songs of “Saathiya” for instance.
