One thing about life that amazes me is its unpredictability. Let me explain. See when I got the email from Sudhirji in April 2014 informing me about the approaching 10K milestone I had decided to send as many songs as possible to Atul for reaching 10000 as soon as possible. And in right earnest I sent 4 songs over a week in my (personal) “March unto 10000” mission. And I must say Atul was good to me by posting all of them instantly. Then came my unexpected tour of Delhi; and I took a break from my list of romantic songs and sent a Delhi based song. This is one incident that proves that we plan something and we end up doing something else.

Though 1950 was “only” six decades ago, it looks like that was an entirely different world altogether from what it is today. For one, things were much simpler and un complicated and moreover, people seemed to have all the time in the world at their disposal. Imagine riding on a slow moving bullock cart and taking entire day to cover a distance of may be 15 miles, that one can now cover in a few minutes. Yes, one used to measure distances in miles those days.

I am surprised to see that as many as two memorable Holi songs are from 1980s. But when I look at the credentials of the lyricists and the music directors of these songs, I realise that they were very much throwbacks of the past, and so one should not necessarily be surprised that they came with such evergreen songs on the wrong side of the golden era of Bollywood music.
