#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #

#Remembering the Divine Voice – Mohd Rafi#
————————————————————————
(Lyricist Kavi Pradeep-30)
——————————-
Regulars on this blog are aware that I am trying to bring as yet unrepresented Kavi Pradeep songs on the blog. Today I am presenting a song penned by Kavi Pradeep and sung by Mohd Rafi. This song is in fact a very familiar song to me that I have listened to many times, mostly on radio. But, I am surprised that this song is yet to be presented here. Today we are paying our tributes to the divine voice Mohd Rafi who passed away on this day in 1980. I take this opportunity to present this song sung by Mohd Rafi and written by Kavi Pradeep. Music for this song is composed by C. Arjun. This song is from the movie ‘Aankh Kaa Taaraa-1977’.
“Aankh Kaa Taaraa-1977” had Sachin, Bindiya, Om Shivpuri, Bindu, Ajit, Baby Pallavi, Dulari, Manisha, Nirupa Roy, Bharat Bhushan, Gajanan Jagirdar, Gufi, Mukri, Abhi Bhattacharya, Manhar Desai, Tun Tun, Preeti Ganguly, C.S. Dubey, Paintal, Baby Dimple Saigal and others.

Hullo Atuldom
July 29th was the 22nd death anniversary (already that many years!!) of the actor Johnny Walker who was much adored as a comedian. The characters that he typically played were of “Drunkards” & he excelled at them, inspite of not touching a drop of alcohol throughout his life.
He was born Badruddin Jamaluddin Kazi in Indore, in present-day Madhya Pradesh. He was part of a family, that had 12 children, which moved to Bombay (of those times) when his father lost his job. He got a job as a bus-conductor in Bombay Electric Supply & Transport (BEST- Bombay’s bus service). He was spotted by actor Balraj Sahni entertaining his passengers with his comical way of calling out bus stops and his hilarious impressions and antics. Balraj Sahni introduced this fan of Noor Mohammed Charlie to Guru Dutt. Balraj Sahni told Kazi to demonstrate his drunkard act to Guru Dutt. From that meeting, he gained a role in ‘Baazi’ (1951).

Remembering the Legend – Mohammad Rafi Sahab on his 45th Death Anniversary
Rafi Sahab’s birth centenary year just got over, and we are now commemorating the 45th death anniversary. Within a few years it will be 50 years since he left this mortal world. What a short life he lived here and the impact of his life, singing, conduct and his progeny which he left in the world, is multi-fold and multi-dimensional. One can’t thank the Almighty for the blessings upon us all.

Hello everyone!
It has been SUCH a long time since my last post here that I’ve forgotten how to even write posts.
So this one will most probably be a short one, unlike my past marathon posts.
I say “most probably” because I might intend a short post, but once I start writing, my thoughts end up having a life of their own. I would be an editor’s worst nightmare. 😊
Anyway, let’s see how it goes.
Ok, so the main reason for this post is a sort of coincidence that I’m taking as a sign to make me write.
