Today’s song is from the ” Kam sune – Unsune ” film Pensioner-1954.

When you say that ‘Colgate is No. 1 Toothpaste’, it does not mean that everyone in India uses Colgate. It only means that the majority of people use Colgate and hence it is called No. 1 toothpaste. The decade of the 1950s was known as’ The Golden Era of Film Music’. It did not mean that there were no films with mediocre or poor music. It only means maximum films had wonderful music. In this decade there were few – only few – films whose music was not famous, for whatever reasons. Today’s film was one such film.

In the war period from 1939 to 1945, the British Government in India had coaxed the filmmakers to make films which would help the war efforts. These were called ‘ Propaganda Films’ and the Government gave special subsidies and other concessions ( like extra quota of Raw Film at control rates) to the producer. During the 1950s the Indian Government wanted to boost the ‘Small Savings’ habit among the citizens. Some films were made upholding this scheme. Today’s film Pensioner-1954 was one such film.

‘Kasauti’ (1974) was produced and directed by Arbind Sen under the banner of Lalit Kala Mandir. The cast included Hema Malini and Amitabh Bachchan in lead roles supported by Pran, Sonia Sahni, Vijay Sharma, Ramesh Deo, Sulcohana, Bipin Gupta, Satyen Kappu, Sapru, Murad, Mohan Choti, Bharat Bhushan, Viju Khote, Janakidas, Mac Mohan etc. This was Amitabh Bachchan’s first film with Hema Malini in a leading role.

Producer-director Aravind Sen picked up Amitabh Bachchan after watching his role in ‘Saat Hindustani’ (1969) and Reshma Aur Shera’ (1971). During the making of the film, Amitabh Bachchan’s two films, ‘Bansi Birju’ (1972) and ‘Ek Nazar’ (1972) were released which flopped on the box office. The distributor who financed ‘Kasauti’ (1974), got panicky and withheld further release of funds for shooting. Aravind Sen was still confident about the success of his next release film, ‘Bandhe Haathh’ (1972) which also flopped. During this period, Aravind Sen suffered a heart attack which led to further delay in completing the film. Fortunately for him, Amitabh Bachchan’s ‘Zanjeer’ (1973) and ‘Namak Haraam’ (1973) became super hit films and the shooting of the film was resumed. The film was released on August 9, 1974.

Today (9 August 2025) is Rakshabandhan. Incidentally, Rakshabandhan was the first festival for this blog when this blog began on 19 July 2008. On that year, Rakshabandhan was on 16 August 2008, one day after Independence day. Chosing an appropriate song for the occasion was a no brainer for me. I had covered the iconic Rakshabandhan song, bhaiyya mere raakhi ke bandhan ko nibhaana. That post turned out to be a “game changer” for the blog as the blog received visitors in three digits on that day for the first time. That was a breakthrough for the blog as it began to get noticed by more and more music lovers.

We have been covering rakshabandhan related songs on all Rakshabandhan days. There have been 17 such occasions on the blog so far. All the well known rakshabandhan songs have already been covered by now. 26 Rakshabandhan related songs have been covered on these 17 occasions.

Today, on the occasion of the 18th Rakshabandhan day (9 August 2025) for the blog, here is a lesser known Raksha bandhan song. This song is from “Pyaar Ka Rishtaa”(1973).

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

Yesterday the festival of Naag Panchamee was celebrated all over the country. I read that the tithhee of Naag Panchamee falls on both days viz 29th and 30th July. However the auspicious (mahurat) timings for the offering the prayers was yesterday only, and that too was for just couple of hours. Initially I was looking for a song from the older movies which could be fit for the occasion, however due to changed priorities, I could not share a post yesterday. Before I could finalise a song I came across an article on internet which was about the vanished genres of film stories in recent years. Till the decade of seventies many movies were still made with mythological stories and the films about snakes and ichchhaadhaaree naag or naagin were being made in those decades. Even in the eighties we had films like ‘Naginaa-1986’, ‘Nagin Aur Nagina-1988’(dubbed movie), ‘Nigaahen-1989’, ‘Doodh Kaa Karz-1990’, ‘Tum Mere Ho-1990’ etc.

So, we are at this familiar landmark again. The landmark of a century post for the blog. This is the 192nd century for the blog. In other words, this article is song post number 19200 for the blog. It appears as if the blog began just a few days ago in the month of july. In reality the blog began in July 2008 (19 July) and today we are in 2025. We have completed 17 years of continuous existence which is quite an achievement for an online activity. It is wonderful to realise that this musical endeavour had brought likeminded music lovers together and they have stuck together all these years. Like Fevicol. 🙂
