Hullo Atuldom

Today is 4th August. We are celebrating/ remembering the maverick actor, singer, music director, producer, director of Hindi Films on his 95th birthday. I think he was first a singer who was coaxed into acting and eventually turned a producer/director of films. I think he composed songs only for films that he made. (I don’t mind if fans of his correct me 🙂 )
I am sure I need not spell specifically that I am talking of Kishore Kumar (Khandlawala).

Also, I need not mention that he was the brother of Ashok Kumar & Anup Kumar & Sati Devi who was the wife of Sashadhar Mukherjee (founder of Filmalaya Studios). It is common knowledge that all his four wives were actresses & his son Amit Kumar is also a singer/actor/ music composer.

In the hierarchy of Hindi film actors, apart from lead and supporting actors, there is one category of actors who falls between supporting actors and extras. One may call them ‘small role actors’. I found it difficult to identify many actors in this category especially when some of them would be uncredited in the films. One such actor is Ram Sethi whom I had seen in some films of 1970s and 80s. It is only when I joined this Blog in 2011, I came to know that Pyarelal of ‘Muqaddar Ka Sikandar’ (1978) was Ram Sethi. I have also seen him with Amitabh Bachchan in some more films like ‘Laawaaris’ (1981), ‘Yaaraana’ (1981), ‘Kaalia’ (1981), ‘Namak Halaal’ (1982) and ‘Jaadugar’ (1989).

#the Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Kraanti-1981’. This was one of the biggest movies of our times when people like me were still growing up or had just entered their teens. I still vividly remember the summer of 1981 when we had watched this movie in the near-by city Akola (Maharashtra). This movie was passed by Censor Board on 28.01.1981. Unlike now, when movies are released simultaneously in all places, it would take two-three months for the movies to reach the theatres then.

7802 Aayi milan ki bahaar re Naiyya (1947) 3 songs covered out of 6 by now
