I have a list of ‘Yaad” songs to post. This being a classic “yaad” song, with the oft repeated line “Teri Yaad Saathh hai”. This song is unforgettable in many aspects. Over the years, I have wanted to post this one. Whenever Raahat Fateh Ali Khan’s voice is heard, this is the song I remember every time. So consistent is the association.

After visiting UK and London in 2021, I looked up this song but could not find the link with such visuals which are here in the full audio version. Video clip is small with the song playing in the background, when Rishi Kapoor visits India and taking his wife and daughter Katrina Kaif around and they visit all the important places of worship, mostly in north India and the trip ends with the Taj Mahal visit. In the full audio version, the whole films scenes and story is related in partly present and flashback. I have seen the film 2-3 times. It makes a good watch, light romance and decent songs.

YouTube is an American social media and online video sharing platform owned by Google. It is an amazing tool that helps us in our blogging expedition. Based on our previous search history, it keeps suggesting links to videos.

That means, for followers of ATULSONGADAY, YouTube will keep suggesting videos of Hindi Fillum Sangeet. The suggestions may also be based on any particular actor, movie or artist, specially if we have looked up for songs of the concerned artist.

So, as I was browsing through YouTube yesterday, I came across a song which had Sunny Deol trying to shake a leg in tandem with Sridevi for a song that was playbacked (I am sure there is no such word in the English dictionary) by Suresh Wadkar and Asha Bhosle. It had Meenakshi Seshadri & Anil Kapoor, standing among the people who were watching the proceedings. On looking up for details, on our blog of course, I found that it has found its place on the blog in 2022 with this post by Avinashji.

#The Decade of Nineties – 1991 – 2000 #

In my previous post earler today I discussed the ongoing monsoon season in our country. Monsoon has arrived more than a month back and most parts of the country has received good rains. That got me interested to present a rain song here today.

Lots of rain songs are yet to be covered on the blog. When I checked the category of rain songs I noted that the last rain song on the blog was posted on 26th August 2023. It is surprising that no rain song was posted after August 2023 unless some such songs were posted but they failed to get tagged under rain songs.

Hullo Atuldom

Many celebrities, whom fans of Indian films have been following, have their landmark birthdays this year. Example, Aamir, Shahrukh & Salman all become 60 this year. Some singers turn 40, 50, 60 & 70.

Hariharan Anantha Subramani (born 3 April 1955) is an Indian playback, bhajan and ghazal singer who predominantly sings in Tamil, Malayalam, Hindi, Kannada and Telugu languages. He has also sung a number of notable songs in 10+ languages including Marathi, Sinhala, Maithili, Bhojpuri, Odia, Bengali, Sanskrit, Gujarati and English.

Hullo Atuldom

Remembering Nirmala Nagpal today on her birth anniversary. She was born in Mumbai (Bombay back then) on 22nd November 1948. That gives us an idea that she must have been hardly 9 or 10 years of age when she danced in the chorus of the famous club-scene songs of “Howrah Bridge” (1958). She was just 3 years when she appeared in some films as baby Shyama & was a background (chorus) dancer in the late 1950s. She was all of 13 (not unusual for those times, I think) when she married the much-married & father of four -B. Sohanlal- a popular choreographer of that period. The couple separated in a few years but not before she had borne three children. Later, she married a businessman Sardar Roshan Khan, adopted Islam & changed her name to Saroj Khan – a name that gave her work & fame and was known by till she passed away on 3rd July 2020; due to cardiac arrest.
