Hullo to all in Atuldom

He formed, together with Raj Kapoor and Dev Anand, “the golden trio” of Indian cinema in the 1950s and 1960s. There was camaraderie between the three contemporary actors, all renowned for their own style. He was the biggest Indian star of this era, a national icon, holding the status of a matinée idol. He was the country’s highest-paid actor during this period.

I don’t need to mention that we are reading about the idol of many actors who made their debut in films post the 1960s- Dilip Kumar who was born Muhammad Yusuf Khan in Peshawar, which is presently in Pakistan. He is said to have been childhood friends with Raj Kapoor who grew up in the same neighbourhood.

#The Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #

YEAR 1983-2

The song under discussion is from the movie ‘Painter Babu-1983’. It was a special movie for teenagers of those days like us.

Board examination for Xth were upon us and obviously that was uppermost in our minds. At the same time, we were not immune to the other topics of our interest, viz cricket, Hindi movies, and listening to Hindi movie songs on radio.

‘Painter Babu’ was being promoted on radio just as we were preparing for our board exams (of class Xth). Songs of this movie, that were frequently played on radio was a hot topic of discussion in my friend circle. The radio promotion of this movie had its intended effect on us and we became curious about this movie and its debutant lead pair. The fact this movie was produced by Manoj Kumar was in any case an added attraction. AThe fact that Manoj Kumar’s brother was making his debut (with three others also makingtheir debuts), had our friend’s circle excited about this movie. The music of this movie was composed by music duo Uttam Singh- Jagdish Khanna. These names were new for me. We finally got to watch this movie during tsummer vacations after our board examination was over.

Hullo Atuldom

27th April 2009 was the date when Zulfiqar Ali Shah Khan – better known as Feroz Khan- bid adieu to this mortal world. He was only 69 or 73 at that time (there is no clear year of birth available anywhere on the internet).

He was born in Bangalore (which was part of the Kingdom of Mysore at that time) in 1935 (according to some accounts) or 1939 (as mentioned at other places on the internet) to parents who were from Persia & Afghanistan. He was educated in schools of Bangalore but never went to college (by his own admission). But, looking at the way he conducted himself on-screen- the walk, a drawl in the dialogue delivery etc. would make the audiences feel that he was someone who was educated in some overseas university. He brought the wild west to Bollywood with his leather boots, hats and cigars, and he did it with swag.
