Blog 10-Year Challenge (2010-2020) – Song No. 96
———————————————————————————–
25 November 2010, the date exactly ten years ago was a day when six songs were covered in the blog. But unlike earlier months of the year when all six or seven songs got covered before 10 AM, this day was a struggle. The first article (post number 3251) was posted at 8:39 AM. The sixth and final post of the day appeared in the evening at 7:44 PM. So it was a struggle, rather than a breeze, to publish the day’s quota of songs on this day ten years ago.
Here is the list of six songs that were posted on 25 November 2010:-
| Post number | Song | Movie (Year) | Status of songs of the movie |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3251 | O pardesiyaa pyaar ki bahaar leke | Bahaar (1951) | Movie YIPPEED |
| 3252 | Tod ke do nainon ka taalaa | Daakaa (1959) | 4 songs covered out of 6 |
| 3253 | Dil apna aur preet paraayi | Dil apna aur preet paraayi (1960) | Movie YIPPEED |
| 3254 | Jai Raghunandan Jai Siyaram | Gharaana(1961) | Movie YIPPEED |
| 3255 | Neend ud jaaye teri chain se sone waale | Juaari(1968) | Movie YIPPEED |
| 3256 | Tum se bichhad ke chain kahaan ham paayenge | Maharaja(1970) | 2 songs covered out of 5 |
We can see that four movies out of six whose songs were discussed have already been YIPPEED by now. So songs of only two movies, viz “Daaka”(1959) and “Maharaja”(1970) are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (25 November 2020).

Hullo Atuldom
Today’s date (10 cctober 2020) is rather unique. Fellow ASAD follower Satyajitji, from down-under, pointed it out. 10102020- “never before, never again” was the reaction to that from another regular follower of the blog. Of course it is a “unique arrangement of the numbers that form the date which is appreciated by our brain”. A true statement by our in-house encyclopaedia.
Today’s post is a rather difficult one too. Never before have I faced such a dilemma. It is a case of too many options. I sifted through a whole lot of songs before I made a choice.

Recently, I came across on internet an offer for sale of an used Extended Play (EP) record of the songs of ‘Aaj Raat Ko’, the film which I had never heard of. The EP was released in 1975 by Polydor India Ltd which had 4 songs – 2 songs on each side. All the songs were written by Majrooh Sultanpuri which were set to music by R D Burman. On checking these songs on one of the video sharing platforms, I found that all the 4 songs were uploaded in audio format. The songs were in the typical mould of R D Burman’s compositions. In one of the audio clips, a record-cover photograph was displayed with a couple of scenes from the film showing Saira Bano, Sujit Kumar and Vinod Mehra. I could not locate the full film on-line.

01/10/2020 – 101st Birth anniversary of Majrooh Sultanpuri.
—————————————————————————-
Mujh se kaha jibrayil e junoon ne ye bhi vahi-e-ilaahi hai
Mazhab to bas mazhab-e-dil hai baaqi sab gumraahi hai
The Angel(of obsession) tells me that this too is divine decree,
The religion of love is the faith, rest all is deception
Dekh zindaan se pare, rang-e-chaman josh-e-bahaar
Raqs karna hai to phir paaon ki zanjeer na dekh
Look far away from the dungeons, towards the colourful garden and spirited spring
Want to dance (fly), than don’t be bothered by the limitation of feet.
Bahaane aur bhi hote hain zindagi ke liye
Ham ek baar teri aarzu bhi kho dete
There could be other reasons to live
Had the hopes of you been lost.
Jafaa ke zikr pe tum kyun sambhal ke baitth gaye
Tumhari baat nahi baat hai zamaane ki

In this article, I am discussing a classical dancer for whom the dancing was her passion, be it in the films or on stages. Her face was familiar to me as I had watched some of her films long back. But at that time, I did not evince interest in knowing her name. It was only after I joined the Blog in 2011 that I came to know her identity through none other than our own Prakashchandra ji, the veteran of our Blog in identifying the lesser known film artists with a high success rate. The name of the dancer is Rani.

Songs Repeated in Hindi Films – 23
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –
OK, so introducing another popular song that got very quickly reused in a subsequent film. This raunchy item number surprised everyone when it came out for the first time. The film is ‘Inkaar’ from 1977. It was cops and robbers story – B-grade cinema but it was done very professionally, giving some true insight into the normal working of the police force.
This song, which is performed by Helen in the film, became very popular in its time. And the wonder part of this song was / is the voice that has rendered it. The voice is of Usha Mangeshkar. One does not hear her voice in item numbers. Maybe part of a twin dance duet singing. But not an out and out item song. Somehow the selection of his voice for the setting clicked absolutely well. The setting of the song in the original film is a roadside tavern – a desi daaru ka adda. A counter for selling liquor and some chairs and tables for the clients to enjoy their glass that cheers. The dancer, Helen, is very much in the native Maharashtrian attire, wearing the dhoti in the typical lavangi style. The scenario, the persona – the singing voice suited everything to a T.
