Hullo to all friends

I know it is rather late in the day to wish a ‘Happy Friendship Day’; but as the saying goes ‘Better Late Than Never’.

This morning my husband had a confused look on his face when he started receiving Friendship Day messages. He asked me “when is this day?”. The reason behind the question was – he had received friendship day messages last weekend too, on July 30th to be exact.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 72
————————————————————————————–

This date ten years ago (viz 20 July 2012) saw nine songs from nine different movies getting covered in the blog. So, instead of resting on the laurels (as previous day was fourth birthday of the blog), we posted songs with renewed enthusiasm on this day. 🙂

Here are the details:-

Blog Post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
6270 Kaun sa taara chaand ko pyaara Zalzala(1952) Movie YIPPEED by now
6271 Bulbul mere chaman ke Heer (1956) Movie YIPPEED by now
6272 Sambhal sambhal ke chalna Ten O Clock(1958) Movie YIPPEED by now
6273 Ruk ruk ruk kahaan chali deewaani Do Ustaad (1959) Movie YIPPEED by now
6274 Takra gaya tum se dil hi to hai Aan (1952) Movie YIPPEED by now
6275 Tum kahaan le chale ho Poonam Ki Raat(1965) Movie YIPPEED by now
6276 Man kyun behka ri behka aadhi raat ko Utsav(1984) 2 songs covered out of 4 by now
6277 Jabse dekha hai tumhe Dil Aakhir Dil Hai(1982) 2 songs covered out of 5 by now
6278 Thhokar mein hai meri saara zamaanaa Shehzaada(1972) 4 songs covered out of 5 by now

As many as six movies (out of nine) whose songs were covered on 20 July 2012 have since been YIPPEED. That leaves us with only three movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge ten years later on 20 July 2022.

Today 19th of July 2022 we celebrate the birthday of this blog. Regulars on the blog are aware that this blog was started on 19th of July 2008. So, today the blog celebrates its’ fifteenth birthday.

Normally on this occasion we enjoy birthday songs, ‘saalgirah’ songs, ‘party’ songs, or sometimes ‘bringing memories back’ songs or songs that are filled with ‘nostalgia’ as I have shared them earlier on the birthday of the blog.

But, today, I am approaching this post differently and I will not repeat what I have earlier said about the blog and my love for this blog and how this blog has become a part of my life since I become associated with it.

Hullo Atuldom

19th July- our blog turns an year older. I have been writing for the occasion for a few years now. (Think the habit set-in in 2015 or 2016). But I seem to have missed writing a post in 2021. Here is my post from 2020. Whatever I have said in that post still holds true for me.

I am still thankful that I discovered the blog and thankful that Atulji gave us this platform where novices like me have a place to post our thoughts. Thankful that Atulsongaday gave me a new set of HFM loving friends who have a wealth of information which has enriched us. There are some among the regulars who I have met a few times and some whom I have never met – Atulji included. Let us hope we have a grand party where all Atulites and Satulites congregate. As Rajaji has said in the comments to my post (on 19th July 2020), and I quote “We all might have got onto this journey at different stations but it has been a wonderful journey, with lots of memories and shared experiences.”

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 57
————————————————————————————–

Welcome all to this post under ‘blog ten year challenge 2012-2022’.

Today we are celebrating eighty-third birth anniversary of one of the greatest music genius of our country Rahul Dev Burman  (27 June 1939 – 4 January 1994), or ‘Pancham’ Da as he is fondly known by all of us. Today we do have a movie under ‘Blog Ten-Years challenge’ where he has composed music. And in fact all the movies presented ten years back in 2012 on this day i.e. 27th June have their music composed by RD Burman only.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 49
————————————————————————————–

Welcome all to this post under ‘blog ten year challenge 2012-2022’.

Today’s(30 May 2022) song is from the movie ‘Jheel Ke Us Paar-1973’.

One song from this movie was presented on the blog on 30.05.2012 alongwith two more songs as listed below.

Song Title Name of the movie (year) Remarks
Chhod chale pyaari duniya ko Bhaagam Bhaag(1956) All songs covered
Maine dekha usne dekha pyaar ho gaya Aaya Saawan Jhoom Ke(1969) All songs covered
Baabul tere baagaan di main baabul Jheel Ke Us Paar(1973) 4 of 6 songs posted

We can see from the above table that only three songs were posted ten years back on this day (still better than the current rate in the same month ten years later in 2022, which is one song per day 🙂 ).

The average of the month ‘May-2012’ was 4.12 songs per day which means a total of 128 songs were covered in the month of ‘May-2012’.

If we look the figures of songs posted in the month of ‘May’ since the inception of the blog we get the following figures.

YEAR May
2008 0* (Blog started in the month of July’2008)
2009 194
2010 64
2011 107
2012 128
2013 142
2014 75
2015 61
2016 35
2017 81
2018 67
2019 40
2020 60
2021 55
2022 33*

We can see that the highest score for the month of ‘May’ is 194 in the year ‘2009’. And the lowest score of ‘May’ is 35 in the year ‘2016’. In the current year this month the figure stands at 33 so we can hope that it will either go past the lowest figure of ‘35’ or it may even end up in a ‘tie’ for the lowest score for the month. In these fourteen years ‘May’ has seen four centuries 194, 107, 128, & 142 in the year 2009, 2011, 2012 & 2013 respectively. There have been seven half centuries – 64, 75, 61, 81, 67, 60 & 55 in the years – 2010, 2014, 2015, 2017, 2018, 2020 & 2021 respectively.

Pancham’s Music – Eighties (1981-1990) -6 (1986)

From this year onwards we can see noticeable drop in number of movies where Pancham Da had composed music. Compared to the seventeen movies in 1984 and eighteen movies in 1985, in 1986 Pancham Da composed music for only seven movies .
