There have been various songs on Shaadi and the various rituals connected to it. For example a very good bidaai song is “Chal ri sajni ab kya soche” from “Bambai Ka Babu”. Then there are songs of mehndi; in recent times a lot of Yash Chopra movies had them (do we need to enumerate them here). There are also songs where the sister is teased by a younger sibling (Sun Sun Sun Didi from Khoobsurat) or a jiji Jija song as in “Hum Aapke hain Kaun.” Then there is the iconic song in Chaudvin Ka chand “Mera Yaar bana hai dulha” by Mohd Rafi which has stood the test of time.

Khaamosh! Now that is what most mimicry artists would like us to remember this star by. But actually he is more loved for his stylized acting which was not or never a copy of any of the then reigning superstars…. Dilip Kumar- Raj Kapoor- Dev Anand or for that matter Shammi Kapoor. He had a great voice, didn’t have the classic good fair looks of the Pathan descendant actors of those times. Yet he always managed to keep his fan following in the face of stiff competition of Amitabh, Dharamendra, Rajesh Khanna Vinod Khanna etc. And he didn’t mind doing blink and you miss roles at the start of his career. Remember the inspector or havaldaar (don’t remember which he was) assisting Raj Mehra in Saajan (1969- Manoj Kumar Asha Parekh starrer)? He was also seen in a bit role in Pyar Hi Pyar (1969 Dharamendra starrer) (Wikipedia says that he was there in that movie, I have not seen it).

“Friendship” is a concept of relationship. It means different things to different people. For me, it is a space where I can be myself, no pretense and no expectations of always being well behaved. And certain amount of taking each other for granted, as I believe I do for all my relationships. I have been lucky in my friends that they tolerate my taking them for granted, at times. And consider themselves to be punching bags, when I am in full flow on some matters/issues. And one of them dutifully registers all my complaints, and tries to find solutions, and gives valuable suggestions. So much so that it makes me feel guilty for worrying her in trivial matters.

EID MUBARAK to all our readers, wherever they are on this Globe. Today is a Happy day for the celebrations.
Having grown up in HYDERABAD-the Muslim state of the Nizam- in the 40s,( Hyderabad was annexed to India in 1948,after Patel’s ‘Police Action’), I have very fond memories of Eid. Though Hyderabad merged with India, It was an independent state till 1-11-1956, therefore the Muslim customs, manners, festivals, education and Eating habits continued to have a major influence on Hyderabad public. (In Nov 1956, Hyderabad was Trifurcated. 5 districts of Marathwada merged with Bombay state, 3 Kannada speaking districts merged with Karnataka and remaining 8 Telugu speaking districts merged into the newly formed Andhra Pradesh.( and again now these 8 districts are separating from Andhra Pradesh to form Telangana State !).

There are songs for various occasions, like festivals, and also for certain days, viz the first day of the month, but I was not aware that there was a Hindi movie song for the last day of the year too.

“Kotwal Sahab” (1977) is a movie which is directed by Hrishikesh Mukherji. This movie was different from the usual Hrishikesh Mukherji movies. Instead of his usual his usual breezy, humerous, sensitive kind of direction that one is used to, Hrishikesh Mukherji has took up a more serious topic in this movie. In this movie, Shatrughan Sinha is a no nonsence honest police officer. His wife Aparna Sen has a dark past and she does not know how to share that past with her husband, because she fears that it may complicate matters. Utpal Dutt, playing a unscrupulous politician who is aware of Aparna Sen’s past is out there to take advantage of her plight.

Tumhaare bin guzaare hain kai din

“Aatmaram” (1979) is a recent movie bty the standards of this blog, but this movie is nearly as obscure as many movies of much older vintage. The reasons are not far to seek. The movie was a smaller budget movie with actors like Shatrughan Sinha, Vidya Sinha,Bindiya Goswami,Amjad Khan etc in it. The movie was directed by Sohanlal Kanwar and the movie sank without a trace.
