Hullo To all in Atuldom

A very happy Janmashtami or Gokulashtami or Sri Krishna Jayanthi as it is called in the various parts of the country. It is celebrated with a lot of prasads, bhajans and jagrans (in some regions). Jagran means keeping awake. The thought behind this is that Lord Krishna was born in the dead of the night so the devotees keep vigil till that hour. As per mythology it was raining heavily at the time of the Lord’s birth and most of the country is having a good monsoon at this point.

Mohammed Rafi : The Incomparable (II) – Song No. 14
———————————————————-

Remembering Mohammed Rafi Sahab on his 39th death anniversary :

No need to keep a reminder in the mobile.  I come across Rafi Sahab’s name or reference to or one of his songs every day.  The figure is at 2955/4845 on the blog’s stats page.  The excel sheet of Rafi Sahab’s songs that I have says total 5373 songs.  The difference between the two figures is more than 500 songs.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2009-19) – Song No. 37
——————————————————————————————

This day, ten years ago – as such sections are generally titled in newspapers that carry a review of their news content from 50 or 100 or 150 years in the past. Well yes, our antecedents are more modest, and so we hark back 10 years into our collection on the blog. On 4th July, ten years ago, the films that got posted were,

 

Jauhri 1951
Dholak 1951
Chaand Mere Aaja 1960
Bank Manager 1959
Faulaad 1963
Jawaab 1970

 

Of these six films, three had made their debut on that date. The debut making films are ‘Jauhri’ (1951), ‘Chaand Mere Aaja’ (1960) and ‘Jawaab’ (1970).

Mohammed Rafi : The Incomparable (II) – Song No. 12
———————————————————-

This particular ghazal, as some other Mirza Ghalib ghazals, has been sung by various singers.  Some of the famous renditions by KL Sehgal Sb, Suraiyya and also by Jaddanbai are already posted in the blog:

https://atulsongaday.me/2012/11/20/nuktaa-cheen-hai-gham-e-dil/      KL Sehgal (‘Yahudi Ki Ladki’, 1933)

https://atulsongaday.me/2010/04/17/nukta-cheen-hai-gham-e-dil/        Jaddanbai (Non-Film song, 1930)

https://atulsongaday.me/2011/03/13/nukta-cheen-hai-gham-e-dil-2/         Suraiyya  (‘Mirza Ghalib’, 1954)

Another rendition of the golden era is yet to find its way into the blog, so here is the Rafi Sahab rendition.  This is a very small simple ghazal with only the four sha’irs being rendered.

Today’s song is from a less known film – ‘Zindagi ke Mele’ (1956). The reason for selecting this song is that it is a duet of Shamshad and Rafi and is composed by my favourite composer Chitragupt – The King of Melody. For this film, his assistant was Dilip Dholakiya.

The pace could have been faster, yes, but well, we have what we have. 🙂
