Rajesh Khanna – The Phenomenon – 13
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –- – –

‘1983’ to ‘1988’ was the ‘peak time’ for me for watching Rajesh Khanna movies. From ‘1983-1985’ I was studying (? 🙂 ) in 11th-12th standard and staying at Akola with my grandparents. There was our group of friends who shared common interests of cricket and Kaka. Couple of my friends in this group were bigger fans of Kaka than me.Following the success of ‘Avtaar’ and ‘Souten’, earlier movies of Rajesh Khanna were also re released in theatres, and we used to watch them in theatres.

(12th Remembrance Anniversary Day of Rajesh Khanna – 18th July’2024)

Today 18th July 2024 is the ‘Twelfth remembrance’ anniversary of Rajesh Khanna. He was born on 29th December’1942 and he passed away on 18th July’2012.

On this occasion, as a tribute to him, here is a song from the movie ‘Aanchal-1980’. Regulars on this blog must have noticed that majority of the Rajesh Khanna songs from his earlier movies (1967-1976) were covered on this blog in the initial years of this blog. These song-posts then were read with much interest and some regular commentators would post their comments on these posts with passion. And why not, some of them were big fans of Rajesh Khanna. Among these regulars used to be one of our senior team-members Raja Saab. He also wrote many heartfelt posts on Rajesh Khanna on this blog. In recent years he has taken a break from writing on the blog, and I hope that and wish that he will make a comeback in future on the blog.

Songs Repeated in Hindi Films – 31
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

Reuse phenomena is quite a prevalent feature in Hindi cinema. We are already at the 31st episode of this series, and I must say we have just scratched the surface. There are reuse songs, there are partial reuse songs, there are medleys of songs, and even in some cases, there is a wholesale reuse in the entire film. A great example is the 2002 film ‘Dil Vil Pyaar Vyaar’. Bharat Shah, the producer of this film is an out and out die hard fan of Pancham Da, and this film showcases a dozen earlier hit songs of RD Burman.

Hullo Atuldom

Anand Bakshi …. a poet & lyricist who was nominated for the Filmfare Best Lyricist award 40 times that resulted in 4 wins. Poetry writing was a hobby for him in his younger days which became an occasional activity after he joined the Indian Navy due to paucity of time. He came to Bombay to try his luck at writing songs and singing for films. He got his first break in a Bhagwan Dada starrer in 1958; from then he kept getting to write songs every year.

Yesterday (on 18th March 2023) evening, Peevesie’s Mom ji called me to tell me how once again I got a ‘song’ posted on the blog that she had on her mind. It happened when she herself was about to start writing her write-up having done lots of background research (e.g. watching the movie etc). No, she was not remonstrating with me, rather she wondered how the both of us thought on the same wavelegth including selecting the same song for the same occasion. This had happened not once but twice on recent days.
