A very Happy 2025 to Atuldom

Normally, at the turn of the calendar, i.e. beginning of the New Year, people decide on the activities that they will undertake from Day 1 of the new year. These are generally categorised as New Year resolutions. These resolutions could be of giving up a bad-habit like smoking, flying off-the handle at slightest provocation, or looking after their health by taking up exercising or walks etc. People manage to be true to their resolutions for a few days, weeks or at the most a month. Very few manage to keep up the promise they have made to themselves for longer periods. As for myself, I have never made promises or resolutions so that I don’t feel let down (by myself).
But, there is always a thought at the back of my head that I should be more aggressive and send more posts to Atulji. I managed it to an extent in 2023 but the pace fell in 2024. I am not going to give reasons for my slackness, and most of my reasons are genuine (in my own thoughts).

# R.D. Burman’s Remembrance Anniversary #
——————————————————————–

Today 4th January 2025 is the 31th Remembrance Anniversary of the great music-director Rahul Dev Burman. He was born on 27th June 1939 and he passed away on 4th January 1994 at the age of just 54. We are paying our tributes to him by discussing a few of his compositions here on the blog.

In this post I am presenting a lesser heard song that could be a never heard song for many. I had not listened to this song till a few months back. This song is from the movie “Imaan-1974”.

Hindi Songs in Bangla Films – 37
—————————————————

The last article which I wrote under this series, Hindi Songs in Bangla Films’ was on July 21, 2021. Some days back, Shri Arunkumar Deshmukh sent me a list of Bangla films with Hindi songs. On checking, I found that barring one song, all Hindi songs in the list were already covered under this series. In this article, I have taken up the only Hindi song from Bangla film, ‘Sandhya Deeper Sikha’ (1964) from the list which is not covered on the Blog.

Today’s song is from the eminently obscure film Sanskar-1958.

What is the meaning of ‘Sanskar’ in English ? There is no single exact word for it. You can roughly say” building Values”. Sanskar is an important part of Indian culture, irrespective of religion. For example, our sanskar is ‘to touch the feet of our elders’. It is prevalent in Hindus, Sikhs, Christians, Boudhs, Jains etc.etc. in India. Those who are india’s original residents follow these customs, as Sanskars are not connected to any religion. These are the ways of life in India. These are handed down, rather taught from generations to next generations. Sanskars are always positive and a guide to a happier life.
