Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 19
————————————————————————————–

February 2012 was a month that saw as many as 178 songs getting covered in the blog, at an average of over 6 songs a day. There were several days when even 8 and nine songs were covered in one day !

The date of 15 February 2012 was a sedate day in comparison. Only four songs were discussed on this date. Here are their details:-

Blog Post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
5458 Ek teer chala dil pe laga Mahal(1949) Movie YIPPEED by now
5449 Wo dekhen to unki inaayat Funtoosh(1956) Movie YIPPEED by now
5460 Ye kya jagah hai doston Umrao Jaan(1981) 7 songs covered out of 9
5461 Yoon to milney ko ham miley hain bahut Faasle(1985) 3 songs covered out of 10

One can observe that two out of four movies whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago are already YIPPEED. That leaves us with only two movies whose songs can still be discussed today, ten years later, as part of “Blog Ten Year Challenge”.

Hullo Atuldom

The song with this post was suitable for 19th August. 19th was the remembrance day of Khayyam the music composer who began his journey in Bollywood in 1947, when he sang a song with Zohrabai Ambalewali. His first as a music director was in 1948 as ‘Sharmaji’ of the ‘Sharmaji-Varmaji’ composer Duo. The statistics page of the blog says that Khayyam saab has given music to 377 songs in 42 movies. That may seem too little when compared with music directors who were active during that period; but each song of his were ‘pure pleasure on the ears’. Songs like ‘shaam-e-gham ki kasam’ (1953) or ‘tum apna ranj-o-gham’ (1964) are still popular as also the hits from the ’70s and ’80s: ‘aa jaa re, aa jaa re o mere dilbar aa jaa’, ‘kabhi kabhi mere dil mein khayal aata hai’, ‘dikhayi diye yun ke bekhud kiya’, and many more that I grew up listening to, of course at that age only the songs used to play in my head, I never knew details about singer, composer, lyricist etc.

Welcome all to this ‘Yippeeee’ song post after some gap. The activity of ‘Yippeeee-ing’ of movies seem to have taken a backseat amid other posts.

If I correctly remember the last movie ‘Yippeeee’ed’ on 05th this month and the movie was ‘Amir Gharib-1974’.

Today’s ‘Yippeeee’ movie is ‘Dard-1981’.

‘Dard-1981’ (conflict of emotions) was directed by Ambrish Sangal for ‘Murghan Enterprises, Bombay’. It was produced by Shyam Sundar Shivdasani. It had Rajesh Khanna, Hema Malini, Poonam Dhillon, Om Shivpuri, Krishan Dhawan, Pinchoo Kapoor, Shashi Kiran, Madhup Sharma, Kamaljeet, Harjeet, Poornima Jairam, Mazhar Khan, and Master Raju Shreshtha. Actress Ranjeeta made a ‘freindly appearance’ in this movie.
