Today (9 July 2025) is the birth centenary of Guru Dutt (9 July 1925-10 october 1964). What a coincidence that today is 6200th day of the blog as well.

Guru Dutt had already carved a niche for himself in Hindi film industry by the time he was gone. He was just 39 years old when he expired. He had a very troubled personal life which took its toll on him (as well as on his wife Geeta Dutt). Both of them legends, but both of them were taken away when so young. Guru Dutt left for the heavenly abode at the age of 39, Geeta Dutt was 41 when she departed. Both of them already have two decades of stellar accomplishments behind them and both had become legends by the time they departed.

It is worth noting that almost all movies where Guru Dutt figured have already been YIPPEED in the blog. Only exception being “Lakharani” (1945) which was his debut film, and “Sailaab”(1956). His other films, viz. “Hum Ek Hain”(1946), Girls’s school”(1949), “Sangram” (1950),”Baazi”(1951), “Jaal”(1952), “Baaz”(1953), “Aar Paar”(1954), Mr and Mrs 55 (1955), “CID”(1956),’Pyaasa”(1957), Kaaghaz Ke Phool”(1959), “Chaudhvin Ka Chaand”(1960),”Saahib Bibi aur Ghulam”(1962) ,”Bahurani”(1963) and “Saanjh aur Sawera”(1964) have already been YIPPEED in the blog.

This article is his 1400th contribution in the blog as a guest poster.

This is my 1400th post on this Blog. For me, it is like a big dream. I feel I will wake up and find that this figure was only a dream figure ! But looks like it is all real.

While I am glad for this new Milestone, it is still a mystery how it has happened. When I retired from my service in 1998 and later from all professional activities in 2010, I was thinking what to do now. Then one day I remembered about my old notebooks in which I had written about the old films which I saw in my younger days and I opened those Pandora’s boxes. A new world opened before me. I bought a Laptop and learnt how to operate it from my grandchildren, who seemed to be born with that knowledge ! I was 71 years old then.

Today’s song is from the film Aan Baan-1956.

1956 was the year of the Silver Jubilee of the Talkie films. The ” Golden Era” of Hindi film music was on its peak and many memorable films were made in 1956. The Bangla version of Hindi film Jagte Raho had won the Grand Prix award at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. Other notable films were Nai Dilli (one of my favourite films),Ek hi raasta, Bhai Bhai from AVM, Chori-Chori- also from south, C.I.D., Hum sab chor hain ( another from my favourite’s list), Basant Bahar, Toofan aur Diya, Funtoosh, Hateemtai, Taksaal, Bandhan, Jaldeep, Rajhath and Inspector.

Today’s song is the last and final song from the film Chand ki Duniya-1959.

The year of 1959 was an year when the musical field in Hindi films was almost ruled by 6 Male singers (Rafi, Mukesh, Talat, Manna Dey Hemant kumar and Kishore Kumar) and 4 Female singers (Asha, Lata, Geeta and Shamshad). Of course occasional singers like S.D.Batish, Subir Sen, Pradeep, Suman,Usha,Mubarak Begum, Sudha Malhotra, kamal Barot etc were also heard. But it was a complete domination of the few top singers. It was not because they were preventing others, but because they were such experienced, perfect and hard working singers who fulfilled the needs of all the Music Directors.
