Mukesh and his NFS – 06
I was in a bit of dilemma, whether to include this post under Composers or NFS series.
I settled for NFS because Mukesh strangely has no film songs for the composer but has 4 NFS. We are talking about composer Iqbal.
Well, it is easy to jump to conclusion that it is Iqbal Qureshi. However, Iqbal and Iqbal Qureshi are two entirely different composers working almost during the same period.

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Chetak Aur Rana Pratap’. This movie was passed by the Censor Board on 07.08.1958. This movie is making its debut on the blog today, and I am surprised that so far it was missing here. Perhaps unavailability of the songs of this movie was the reason. Now a couple of songs of this movie have become available since 2019. The title of the movie suggests that it falls under the genre of ‘historical movies’.

There are a good number of feature films made on Mahatma Gandhi and his philosophy. I have watched a couple of Gandhi films – Richard Attenborough’s ‘Gandhi’ (1982) and ‘Lage Raho Munnabhai’ (2006). There is film titled ‘Road to Sangam’ (2010) which I had not heard of until recently. The title of the film gave me an impression of a film on a road journey to the confluences of the holy rivers in India (for example, Panch Prayags in Uttarakhand). But it turned out to be a Hindi film connected with Mahatma Gandhi.

Today’s song is from a film called Gun Fight aka Bandookbaaz-1960. The film makes a Debut on this Blog.
Funniest part is that the HFGK describes it as a ” Costume film”. Generally, a Costume film is a film in which you see a King, Queen, Vazier or some Historical figures wearing odd, shining and elaborate dresses and who live in big palaces with hundreds of servants who come running after a clap ( a call bell provided to all by God !) of hands. This film is nothing of this sort. All the characters in this film wear normal clothes, live in ordinary houses and lead routine lives. I have seen this film, in the times when such films were in the dying stages. The cast of the film consists of names usually found in a C grade stunt film… Niloufer, Anjum, Moti (Dog), Baagla, Funny Walker, Maqbool, Bilali, Premi, Mohd. Agha, Shaukat, Sharan Asi, Moosa, Mohd. Sandow etc. etc. But it was not a stunt film either.

‘Sipahsalar’ (1956) was produced by F C Mehra under his banner, Eagle Films and was directed by Mohammed Hussain. The star cast included Shammi Kapoor and Nadira in lead roles supported by Kamal Kapoor, Sham Kumar, Samson, S Nazir, Cuckoo, Helen, Kumkum, Uma Dutt, Jagdish Kanwal, Rajan Kapoor etc. It is apparent from what I have seen from a few photographs of the films on the internet that the film belongs to the genre of costume drama.

Eid ul Azha mubarak ho, to all friends and readers.
It is generally believed that faith and logic are two different things. What is faith? Basic premise of faith would be the belief in God. The conviction that there is a Supreme Power who holds the strings of all things in the universe. After all the world is a stage and we all are actors. Shakespeare said it, but it is nothing but the truth. All of us are here for a set number of days, playing our designated roles, doing things we are destined to do, amassing good deeds and bad deeds. As we complete the life circle and leave this mortal world, the soul does go somewhere, where else it will go but to the creator? Logic has no option but to agree that the creator is in best position to answer the question, what is the purpose of creation? If there was no creator, nothing makes sense in the whole existence. Science can give answers till a certain point and that is that. Logic starts where science gives up. And sound logic points to God, the Creator, the Sustainer, the one who says “be” and it is.

This blog regularly clocks centuries of songs. So it follows that the blog clocks thousand songs too after every ten centuries.
The blog has seen 15 instances of thousandth posts so far.
These were special occasions when special writeups are presented with special songs.
