My tribute to the Greatest singer ever – Lata Mangeshkar

I’m delayed by a couple of days to give my shradhanjali to the great departed soul, Lata Mangeshkar. Voices like hers don’t belong to a single era; they belong to eternity. Her melodies will continue to echo in our hearts forever.

For over seven decades, her voice floated through radios, cinema halls, wedding stages, lonely train journeys, and quiet midnight moments. It was the sound of first love, of longing, of devotion, of patriotism, of heartbreak that was beautiful rather than bitter. When Lata ji sang, emotions didn’t feel performed — they felt remembered.

There was something almost otherworldly about her voice. Crystal-clear yet deeply human, delicate yet unwavering, it could carry the innocence of a young girl, the grace of a devoted lover, or the quiet strength of a woman who had endured life’s storms.

As the nation is celebrating 77th Republic Day on 26th January, 2026, I have found yet another patriotic song by Mohammed Rafi sahab. I had zeroed in on another song, the sound quality was not so good. Suddenly this song came up on the feed, as a newly found song. I have checked; it is available on youtube for many years.

Another special thing is that it is a non-film song, written by Rajinder Krishan. Music directors name and the Album name is missing from the list of Rafi song as well as on the links available on youtube.

Today’s song is from a social film Ferry aka Kashti-1954.

Produced and directed by Hemen Gupta for his own banner Film trust of India, Bombay, the film had music by hemant kumar. In this film, his assistant was Ravi (Ravi Shankar Sharma), who soon made his Debut as an independent Music Director with the film ” Vachan “-1955. However, for many films even after ‘Vachan’, he continued to be an assistant to Hemant Kumar. Wherever possible, he also used Hemant Kumar as a Playback singer in the films wherein he was the Music Director.

The cast of the film was Geeta Bali, Dev Anand, Ram Singh, Gulab, Chand Burke, Premlata, Janaki Das, Master Babu, Baby Bula and many others. Geeta Bali’s name appeared before Dev’s, because this was her 48th film compared to 35th film of Dev Anand, thus she was senior.

#the Decade of Fifties – 1951 – 1960 #
————————————————

The song in this post is from the movie ‘Bandhan-1956’. I do not remember to have listened to the songs from this movie earlier or maybe I have forgotten them. The video of this movie is now available on internet which I guess was not the case years back when other songs from this movie were posted on the blog. I have not watched this movie so far, so can’t say much about this movie. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 05.11.1956.

‘Bandhan-1956’ was directed by Hem Chander for ‘Sarkar Productions, Calcutta’. It was produced by D.K. Sarkar. The cast of this movie has Meena Kumari, Pradeep Kumar, Shashikala, Motilal, Achala Sachdev, David, Kammo, Natwar, Nana Palsikar, Meenu, Bhupendra Kapoor, Leela Mishra, Shaikh, Sarita Devi, Shivjee Bhai, Pt Tulee, Ranu Mukherjee, Asit Sen, Zahar Ganguly and others. Music for this movie was composed by Hemant Kumar. This movie has seven songs which were all written by lyricist Rajinder Krishan. The playback singers for the songs of this movie were Hemant Kumar, Bela Mukherjee, Lata Mangeshkar, and Asha Bhonsle. So far three songs from this movie have already been posted on this blog.

Today, January 5, 2025, is the 44th Remembrance Day of Ramchandra Narhar Chitalkar, popularly known as C Ramchandra as a music director and Chitalkar as a playback singer. He regaled the connoisseurs of Hindi film music with his melodious musical compositions in the 1950s and 1960s. He was the pioneer of introducing popular foot-tapping songs with western musical influence and western musical instruments like saxophone and guitar in his compositions as early as in the 1940s. At the same time, he was composing classical raag-based as well as folk-based songs. He was trained in Hindustani classical music for six years first under Vinayakbua Patwardhan and later Shankarrao Sapre.

Despite producing many melodious songs especially in the 1950s, it is unfortunate that C Ramchandra did not get any award – whether National Film Award or Filmfare Award as a music director. The first Filmfare Awards were announced in April 1954 for films released in 1953. But his film, ‘Anarkali (1953) was not in the reckoning for the best music director’s award. His film, ‘Aazaad’ (1955) and ‘Paighaam’ (1959) were nominated for the Filmfare Award in best music director category but did not win. But the fact remains that many of his melodious and rhythmic songs of 1950s are still popular among the current generation which itself is a great award to a creative genius.
