Today (11 October) is the 70th birth anniversary of Amitabh Bachchan. He was born this day in 1942.
Today he is a well established legend, but his beginnings were quite shaky and uninspiring. In fact, he had delivered a string of flop movies and he was on the verge of packing up and going back when “Zanjeer” (1973) was released and it became a hit. And after that Amitabh Bachchan did not have to look back.

Watching old Hindi movies (and its songs) is a good way to look back at the past and see how things were back then. Another way of looking back at the past is by going through the publications of those days.
I recall that I was an avid reader of books in my younger days, viz 1970s. I would read each and every book, whether they were meant for kids or grown ups. In addition to being an avid reader, I was an avid collectors of children’s magazines in Hindi. The children’s magazines in Hindi those days used to be “Bal Bhatri”, “Nandan”,”Champak”,”Parag”, “Lotpot”, Chandamama”, “Indrajaal Comics” etc. You name the children’s magazines and I collected them. I not only collected them, I catalogued them systematically too. They were my prized possessions. I would not be averse to get hold of magazines not in my collection, but I would be quite reluctatnt to lend my magazines to others, because the likelihood of the borrower returning the book were remote in most cases. One needed to pester the borrower hard, sometimes by visiting his home, before one could get your book back.

Today (27 june) is the birth anniversary of R D Burman, who was easily the most influential music director during the time I was growing up in late 1960s and for entire 1970s. His dominance was so total that most other music directors had to change their music to sound like R D Burman. I too k it almost for granted that any song that I liked those days had to be a composition of R D Burman.

I have mentioned it in my previous post that I am at present visually hamstrung. I am unable to see what I am typing since I have forgotten my glasses at home. There are terms like touch typing, typing with two fingers etc, and I suppose I can add another term, viz typing by guesswork as well. I can barely see the letters on the keyboard but I am an experienced keyboard warrior and so my fingers tend to move to the correct keys almost like second nature. So I hope that I am typing correctly without too many typos.

One of the advantages of living through a period (as opposed to reading or hearing about it second-hand) is that you have your own experiences of it that nothing else can quite substitute for. Of course, events may be recorded very accurately for posterity so that future generations get an idea of the past. But it is still not the same thing.
