When the song “baat koi matlab ki” from Apradhi Kaun (1957) was posted here yesterday, one of the comments on it – from Arunji – referred to another song, “phir wohi dard hai”, from this film that had not yet been posted.

I immediately responded to that comment, saying I would post this song too at the earliest.

One of the things I like doing, is to watch old films on youtube. In the past, there weren’t that many available but over the last few years, many more have been uploaded. Especially the ones that aren’t very easily available otherwise. For somebody like me, that is like “andhe ko kya chaahiye, do aankhen”. 🙂

In February 1958, an Italian song – Nel blu Dipirito di blu (English: In the sky painted blue), popularly known worldwide as ‘Volare Song’ become very popular.

Today is the 31st of July(2014).

For many Hindi film music lovers, this date makes an immediate connect in their brain. To one of the most beloved persons to have ever been part of the Hindi film industry.

Yes, I am talking about Mohammad Rafi (or Rafisaab, as he is often respectfully referred to).

Today is the death anniversary of Rafisaab.

34 years ago, in 1980, a day that I remember vividly as if it were yesterday, Rafisaab left our midst.

With some apprehensions and some anxiety, I put forward my first effort at writing an article on this blog. As has been mentioned by Sudhir ji in the previous post, I have been active in the comments space since September 2012. However, the delay in the first post coming up here, has not been from my side. 😉 This first post I had written almost a year ago, and sent to Atul ji in June last year. For some reasons, maybe it got lost in the pile of emails he receives, which he assures me, is the case.

“Saanwari Surat Mann Bhai Re Piya” – the timeless melody that brings together Madan Mohan the music director and Lata Mangeshkar the singer, for the first time, in Devendra Goel’s second venture as a producer director. This was the second time that Madan Mohan was wielding the baton, his first offering being the music of “Aankhen” (1950), also produced and directed by Devendra Goel. It is interesting to note that Lata ji did not sing in Madan Mohan’s first film, despite the fact that a couple of years earlier, in 1948, Madan ji had requested Lata ji to make a promise to sing in his debut film, if he becomes a music director. Lata ji did not keep the promise for “Aankhen” the first film, but kept the promise for “Adaa” the second one, and thereafter, kept the promise for all the years and all the films that Madan ji composed for.

Remembering Madan Mohan on his anniversary of birth today, (25th June).
