We know that S D Burman sang about 150 Bengali NFSs in the beginning of his career. Most of them became very popular. In Hindi, the number is about 25. We have 5 of them on the blog.

Today on the occasion of Gandhi Jayanti, here is a lesser known SDB song. I couldn’t get much detail. Looks like it must have been recorded in the year 1948, in the days following Mahatma Gandhi’s assassination. However some sources on internet mention the year as 1960 for this. Also this seems to be album containing more songs and titled as ‘Gun Dhaam Hamaare Gandhi jee’. I would request knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this song and its details please.

Hullo Atuldom

It is 13 years since the passing of the first Superstar of Hindi cinema. I shall hold back the adjectives that are normally showered on this ICON who had a way to charm the audiences. His smile, emoting eyes etc. had the film viewing public, specially the female viewers swooning all over him, his images and even his CARS. A kind of mania no other actor has managed to replicate since then. He walked into their hearts riding an open top jeep, singing a song composed by S.D. Burman, in the voice of Kishore Kumar. Though that was not his first foray into films.

Let me first clarify that we are remembeing actor/producer Rajesh Khanna who veered towards politics (he contested the 1991/1992 Lok Sabha elections & won the ’92 Bye-election) briefly.
He was a winner of the 1965 All India Talent Contest, organised by United Producers and Filmfare magazine. Actors turned filmmakers Subhash Ghai & Dheeraj Kumar were also contestants in that year.

Today’s song is from the film Chhupa Rustom-1973.

This was a Dev Anand film. Once upon a time, when I was very very young, I was very fond of his every film. He looked so cute, handsome and a real film Hero ! As the years rolled by, I saw less and less films. The last film that I enjoyed in which Dev was a hero was, perhaps, Guide -1965. Thereafter Dev Anand’s cute looks started fading, age was showing on his face and probably on his brain too, because he refused to accept that he was no more a cute looking actor. The result was saddening. Further, he was adamant in writing his own film stories, directing them and acting also as a Hero.

Today’s song is from the comedy film titled ‘Chalis baba Ek Chor’ (1954).

Obviously, the famous and popular story from the Arabian Nights – Alibaba aur Chalis Chor, has been used here for a parody of the film title. The film was produced by K Arts, a banner owned by the producer Kamini Kaushal (real name Uma Kashyap). Being the producer, she had the right to be the heroine of the film too ! The hero of the film was a misfit – Balraj Sahni. Undoubtedly, he was an excellent actor, but his personality, looks and his role history made him unfit for the comedy or romantic films. Some actors create an image with their early films and it sticks with them. After sometime, the audience finds it difficult to accept them in the roles diagonally opposite to their established image.

Kaun kambakht hai jo bardaasht karne ke liye peeta hai… main to peeta hoon ke bas saans le sakoon.

This famous dialogue in the film, ‘Devdas’ (1955) was written by Rajinder Singh Bedi, the Urdu short stories writer, playwright and the novelist. In the aftermath of the partition, he had landed in Hindi film industry mainly for the betterment of his financial conditions apart from creative contributions to the extent possible. But once he knew the realities that the film writers have no much freedom, Rajendra Singh Bedi turned producer-director in Hindi films to fulfil his creative desire.

We often hear this lament from oldtimers that things were simpler in their days and they have become complicated now a days. As a fresh entrant into the club of oldtimers, I tend to agree. Things were really simple in the old days. And they were easy to remember as well if you were a student who was required to remember these facts.
