In my last article, I had made a passing reference to the film, ‘Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikandar’ (1992) in the context of the prelude music of one of the songs of the film which is the inspiration for the prelude music of the song that was discussed in the aforesaid article. This film suddenly reminded me of its director, Mansoor Khan who had successfully directed ‘Qayaamat Se Qayaamat Tak’ (1988) and some more. From his filmography, he directed his last film, ‘Josh’ (2000) and was the co-producer of ‘Jaane Tu Yaa Jaane Naa’ (2008). It is a rare instance for a film director who has successfully directed four films in a row and vanished from the film industry. It was an interesting quest for me to know as to why he shunned the film industry.

Hullo Atuldom
The screen turns to a dark, cloudy sky. There is thunder and lightning. A shimmering disk appears against this backdrop, accompanied by music that has certain magical quality about it. As the background score gently works its way to a crescendo, finishing with a flourish of cymbals, a Greek column-like pedestal, bearing the ‘NH Films’ insignia appears against a smoke-filled screen. Almost instantly a booming voice recites a couplet, with a soft but distinct drum roll accompanying the oration. The couplet goes:
Kya ishq ne samjha hai, kya husn ne jaana hai
Hum khaaq-nasheenon ki thokar mein zamaana hai
The voiceover ends with an emphatic drumbeat. The credits follow led by the opening credit, NASIR HUSAIN FILMS Presents…..

Roothh ke hamse kahin

I start this article with a confession that Hindi film songs of post-1980 period, by and large, are not on my search radar unless I come across some of them by chance. It was one of such chances that took me to a song ‘rooth ke hamse kahin jab chale jaaoge tum’ from the film JO JEETA WOHI SIKANDAR (1992). I was attracted by its first line of lyrics. The song was written by Majrooh Sultanpuri and that made me to watch the video clip. And what a sentimental song relating to brother-brother relationship! As I watched the video clip, some reminiscences of my childhood days flashed before my moist eyes like a slide show.
