There are many coal mines in India, mostly located in Jharkhand, Odisha, West Bengal, Chhattisgarh etc. Post-independence, there have been at least half-a-dozen disasters in coal mines in India with high casualties. Coal mines are prone to explosion because of the presence of gas and coal dust which are inflammable. The main causes of explosions have found to be the violation of safety rules, poor ventilation, weak management system, and breach of statutory permissions.

Donon ke dil hain majboor ‘finance’ se … film hi release naa ho to ham kya karein. 😊

Today’s song is a lovely duet song penned by Majrooh Sultanpuri. But the irony of this song is that it never came on the screen despite being recorded (and shot*) for not one but two different movies. However, in its second edition the male singer was different and credit for music direction was also given to only one of the composers and not to the ‘duo’ of composers as was the case in the older movie.

In the aftermath of Kargil War of 1999, some Hindi films have been made on this subject, mostly as war films like ‘LOC Kargil’ (2001) and ‘Lakshya’ (2004). In the recent period, ‘Gunjan Saxena’ – The Kargil Girl’ (2020) and ‘Shershaah’ (2021) were also made on the subject. I was not aware that ‘Dhoop’ (2003) was also related to Kargil War of 1999. When I watched the film, I became aware that this film was based on a true story of Captain Anuj Nayyar, MVC who laid down his life while capturing Point 4875 in the Tiger Hill sector in Kargil War. He was posthumously awarded Maha Veer Chakra and his family was granted franchise for operating a petrol pump.

While discussing the films, ‘Gharaonda’ (1977) and ‘Dooriyaan’ (1979), the name of Bhimsain gets noticed. Both these films were produced and directed by him whose specialisation was in animation films. His foray into feature film was a journey into uncharted waters for him. In the event, both these films became cult-classics. Thereafter, he made only one Hindi film, ‘Tum Laut Aao’ (1983) and bid goodbye to Hindi films. He devoted rest of his life in improving the standard of animation films in India. I have come across about a dozen of videos on the development of animation films in India and all of these mention about the contributions Ram Mohan and Bhimsain in the field of animation films in India.

Remembering Bhimsain Khurana (24/11/1936 – 17/04/2018), a devoted animation filmmaker whose 87th birth anniversary falls today.

Today (9 march 2023) early morning, the first WhatsApp message I read in my family group was about producer-director-writer-actor Satish Kaushik who breath his last on the way to a hospital in Delhi early morning following a heart attack. His funeral is likely to take place in Mumbai later in the day. Next month, he would have completed 67 years, an age when many actors have rediscovered themselves in film industries. I felt very sorry that one of the few genial faces of the Hindi film industry and an actor who regaled us through his unique style of acting and dialogue delivery was no more with us. For now, only his films will keep his memory live.

Today, February 8th is the 5th Remembrance Day of the poet and lyricist, Nida Fazli (12/10/1938 – 08/02/2016) who left for the heavenly abode on this date 5 years back. 80 years ago, Ghazal singer, Jagjit Singh (08/02/1841 – 10/10/2011) was born on this date. More than a co-incidental connection between the two, they had a special connection through their collaborations. Nida Fazli was the master of expressing the romance, realities and the philosophy of life by way of ghazals and nazms while Jagjit Singh added soul to Nida Fazli’s words through his emotive voice.

‘Vadh’ (2002) seems to have become an obscure film by now. Even though the film belongs to 21st century when the marketing through mass media has been the order of the day to promote the film, I do not recall having seen any such marketing blitzes for this film.
