78th Independence day – 15th August, 2024

The nation grows older by one more year on 15th August. And hopefully wiser too. Among the nations formed in 20th century, post world wars scenario, we have indeed come a long way, and hopefully shall grow, by leaps and bounds.

The cultural conflux and amalgamation, is what makes this country what it is, that the world looks up to us for the colourful heritiage, for the values of humanity, for intellectual and literary wealth.

Commemorating 100 years of Rafi – 44th Death anniversary on 31st July, 2024.

basti basti parbat parbat
gaata jaaye banjaaraa aa
le kar dil ka ek taaraa aa

There are iconic songs in the Hindi film songs, and then there is this song (film ‘Railway Platform’ – 1955). Really. For my generation of Hindi film music fans, this is the iconic one. Like one comment in the blog post says “Vividh Bharati song, Is geet ko koi bhi sachcha listner kaise bhool sakta hai….ek ek shabd, ek ek piece sangeet ka, dil, aur dimaag ke andar record kiya hua hai. Mujhe yaad hai aise bahut log hain JINHONE apni zindagi men PEHLA Hindi geet YE GEET suna, aur Hindi geeton ke deewaane ho gaye. AAJ TAK WOH DEEWANE HAIN.”

Today’s song is from a social film Albeli-1955.

This is a very rare song and I spent more than a month searching for this song, but could not get it. Finally, on my request I got the audio MP3 format of this song from my friend Syed Zafar Shah ji. He has always been very helpful to me. I have few other well known song collectors like Girdharilal Vishwakarma ji, Vishwas Nerurkar ji and Deepak Choudhari ji, who extend their help whenever I request them. I consider it my good luck to know them so well.

Today’s song is a song sung by Kishore kumar in his inimitable style, from the film Dilli Ka Thug-1958.

1958 was the year when so many musical films came. One could see the excellence of lyricists and the art of the Music Directors making those songs popular. In those days the active lyricists were Shakeel Badayuni, Sahir Ludhianvi, Shailendra, Majrooh, Hasrat Jaipuri, Bharat Vyas, Rajendra krishna, Prem Dhawan, Kaifi Azmi, Pradeep to name a few.

Hullo Atuldom

There are some celebrities who’s birthdays & anniversaries become national events. The media goes crazy in trying to show case their work and remind the film-crazy public about the body of their work, and bring them into public domain. I don’t grudge these celebrities their popularity. All of the concerned actors, actresses, music directors, singers etc have a huge fan following because of their work only.

Then there are those who reach milestone birthdays quietly, without much fanfare. 23rd September happens to be one such date. It is the date of birth of 3 actors whose work I have been following since I started seeing films consciously.

Today’s song is from a religious film Prabhu ki Maya (1955).

This film was made by the well known Filmistan studios. It was directed by Vithaldas Panchotiya and the Music Director was Ravi Shankar, for whom it was his only second movie as an independent composer. He went on to do 112 Hindi films composing 796 songs. He also sang 21 songs in 18 films and in addition wrote66 songs in 21 films as a Lyricist. So, what remained was Acting and Directing a film, which he never tried ! He also had a stint as an MD in Malayalam Films with the name ” Bombay Ravi “.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No.114
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years ago (6 May 2013), six songs from six different movies (plus one non film song) were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Post No Song Title Name of the movie Remarks
8046 Bhala thha kitna apna bachpan Hemant Kumar NFS(1941)
8047 Raushni apni umangon ki luta kar chal diye Naadaan (1943) 4 songs covered out of 11 by now
8048 Kis tarah bhoolega dil unka khayaal aaya huaa Village Girl (1945) 11 songs covered out of 12. Final song not available as of now
8049 Najariya mein aaiho Nadiya Ke Paar (1948) Movie YIPPEED in the blog with this song
8050 Wohi rota hua ek dil Lahore (1949) 9 songs covered out of 10 by now
8051 Jahaan jaayenge deewaane wahin mehfil jamaa lenge Isi Ka Naam Duniya Hai (1962) 3 songs covered out of 8 by now
8052 Dil haarne waale aur bhi hain Dil Diyaa Dard Liyaa (1966) Movie YIPPEED in the blog with this song

We observe that two movies (out of six)) whose songs were covered in the blog on this date ten years ago (on 6 May 2013) have since been YIPPEED in the blog. Both these movies in fact got YIPPEED on this very day ten years ago. That leaves us with four unYIPPEED movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge.

“Isi Ka Naam Duniya Hai”(1962) is one of the BYTC eligible movies today.
