Today’s song is from a Religious film- Sant Tukaram-1965.

The period 1961 to 1980 is called the “Golden period” of Indian Cinema, because the way films were made was very close to people’s sentiments, aspirations and lifestyles. Such Closeness never came again. The Indian film industry gave a tough fight to Hollywood in techniques and made meaningful films which the world appreciated. By this time, the Indians migrating to foreign countries increased manifolds and they helped spread the popularity of Indian Cinema.

This was the period when colour film making increased manifolds, but the spread was very slow. In 1960 only 3 colour films were made and in 1961 only 7 films. The number crossed the 10’s mark only in 1965.

We observe that four movies (out of eight) whose songs were covered in the blog on this date ten years ago (on 1 May 2013) have since been YIPPEED.Two more movies have only one song left to be covered, but these songs are not available. So practically only two unYIPPEED movies are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today on 1 May 2023.

“Sant Tukaram”(1965) is one of the BTYC eligible movies today.

I have received quite a few e mails today reminding me that today (1 may 2013) is the 94th birth anniversary of Manna Dey and that no Manna Dey songs have been discussed on the occasion so far. Have no worry, I was aware of the occasion and I fully intended to discuss quite a few Manna Dey songs on the occasion. It is just that it has taken me a bit longer to do that.
