#the Decade of Nineties – 1991 – 2000 #
———————————————————————
Today’s song is from the movie “Hero No. 1”. Govinda is the lead actor in this movie and today is his 61st birthday (born on 21.12.1963). On this occasion we wish him a very happy birthday and a very happy, healthy, and peaceful life ahead. I am not a great fan of Govinda. In fact initially I hated watching his movies coming in those years of end eighties or early nineties. However I liked some of his movies that I watched viz. ‘Raja Babu’, ‘Swarg’, ‘Hum’, ‘Deewaanaa Mastaanaa’, ‘Bad Miyaan Chhote Miyaan’, ‘Marte Dum Tak’, and ‘Aankhen’. I may not have watched some of the movies which according to his fans are his best or prominent movies of his career. I was never interested in watching them and I was more inclined towards other type of movies in those years. I might have watched his other movies too but I could not recollect them now.

In the early 1970s in Mumbai, it was quite common to see Pathan moneylenders standing outside the gates of the factories, mills, railway workshops and even some of the Government offices. Pathan moneylenders used to lend money at high interest rates, mostly to workers and subordinate staff who were in perpetual need of money. I had frequently watched them standing outside the main gate of my office, normally in pair, during the first week of every month. Their operations were always discreet without inviting any attention from the passers-by except that their distinct dress and caps would identify them to be the Pathans.
I had got the first hand information on the modus operandi of the Pathan moneylenders from one of my subordinate staff who was perpetually indebted to them. On the salary day, they would be present at the gate at the start of the office, at lunch time and the office closing time. If a borrower is not able to pay the monthly interest/principal amount, he would try to avoid the Pathans by not going out of the office during lunch time, would leave the office well before the closing time or leave late. But the network of the Pathans was so large that they would eventually catch the defaulters and get at least the interest amount by their discreet strong arm methods.

In the 1950s, many new female singers joined Hindi film industry to try their luck in making their careers in playback singing. Many of them went into oblivion after a couple of years or so. Playback singing career of a few of them like Seeta Kalyanpur, Suman Purohit ended with one or two films. A few others like Meenal Wagh (11 songs during 1950-54), Kaumudini Munshi (10 songs during 1954-68) could remain connected with Hindi film music for longer period but their singing output was low. While some of them may not have pursued the playback singing career due to personal reasons, there is no doubt about the fact that with the emergence of Lata Mangeshkar in early 50s along with established playback singers like Geeta Dutt and Shamshad Begum, the newcomers faced tough competition from them.
