I have been doing some research on the works of Gopaldas Saxena ‘Neeraj’ – both as a poet and a lyricist for Hindi films. Being an admirer of this great poet and lyricist, I have been reading his poems that are available on the websites and also going through the available songs that he wrote for Hindi films. Suffice it to say here that he wrote over 100 songs for about 40 films during his stint in Hindi film industry. After 1975, The rate of his song writing for films had dwindled considerably since 1975, when he began to work from his home in Aligarh. The last time that he wrote a song for a film was for his close friend Dev Anand’s ‘Charge Sheet’ (2011).

#The Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
——————————————————————————————–
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # 11 # Duet-1 Hemlata, Suresh Wadkar
——————————————————————————————–

For this post I was specially looking for a ‘duet’ and I think this ‘lighthearted’ and ‘typical Ravindra Jain musical’ fits in this series of ‘seventies’ very much.  This one is from the 1978 Film ‘Madhu Maalti’ sung by Suresh Wadkar and Hemlata. Listening to this song reminds us of the popular  “Vrishti Pade Tapor Tupur” from the film ‘Paheli’ (1977), by same team.

One of the important targets that I chase on a regular basis these days is seeing that all songs of movies get covered and then that movie title in coloured orange in the list of songs. Often it so happens that I cover all songs of a movie but I forget to colour the title of movie red in the list of songs or forget to include the name of the movie in the list of ” movies with all songs covered”.

Today (6 january) is the birthday of Rameshwari. Rameshwari who ? Many people among younger generation may look askance on the mention of her name. But there was a time during 1977-78 when she was one of the hottest property in Hindi movies when she made her debut in Rajshree Production’s endearing movie “Dulhan wahi Jo Piya Man Bhaaye” (1977). This movie turned her into an overnight sensation. People (especially women) would throng to watch this movie. When this movie was released in my town, I did not take any notice of it because the title of the movie did not appeal to me and in any case I was more into watching Amitabh Bachchan movies those days. But when I noticed that this movie was having a longer run in the town that what even “Sholay” (1975) managed, then I was intrigued and I bunked my college to watch this movie. And I was bowled over ! I then watched this movie four more times, and it was only for Rameshwari.

What can you say about a twenty-five-year-old girl who died? Thus starts the very first line of one of the most famous novels ever written. “Love Story” by Erich Segal first published on 14th February 1970 has sold more than a 22 million copies worldwide and has been translated into more than 20 languages.

=====================
Raag Maalikaa in Hindi Films – 6
=====================

This is a unique RaagaMaalika composed and ably written by music director Ravindra Jain. I have no words to describe the greatness of Ravindra Jain in his excellence to create this truly very different type of composition. His selection of singer Yesudas for this very difficult heavy classical genre is also very very appropriate.
