The sudden demise of Nana Patekar on October 08, 2026, at Goa prompted me to watch his recent films which I have not so far watched with an intention to write a tributory article on him. I was looking for a film which broadly reflected his real personality. Of course, some of his films do reflect some shades of his real personality in films like ‘Ankush’ (1986), ‘Prahar’ (1991), ‘Khamoshi’ (1996) and perhaps few more films which I have not watched.

Today’s song is from an obscure film – Ahinsa-1947.

1947 was a very momentous and memorable year in the annals of Hindi film Industry. Many talented actors, directors,singers, composers, lyricists, writers and technicians left India, opting to migrate to Pakistan. The year 1947 actually started with a bad Omen. K L Saigal died on 18th January 1947. The country was on the threshold of Partition and Independence for two countries. The film industry, which was a true Secular industry, started harbouring doubts about each other.

This is my 1900th post on this Blog. This is the second fastest century. For the 16th century, it took me only 119 days, whereas today’s century took 127 days. For me, it is like a dream. I still can not believe that I wrote 1900 articles on this Blog alone. Add to it another 100+ articles on other blogs and sites. Add to it my 13 books published. Add to it scores of books mentioning me and referring to my writings. Add to it countless friends I have gained in the last 14 odd years. Add to it…..

The list would be too long. When I look back, I wonder how all this happened. After retirement, generally people find it difficult to spend time. Here I was, sometimes I had to strive hard to manage time to cope up with my work. At the age of 86 years, I could do all the above, in addition to my work as an Independent Director on the Board of Directors of two major Pharma companies. For this I thank The Almighty and pray that He continues to provide the required energy to me to go on further, till I am destined to be here.

Continuing the series on actresses whose names start with A and who have lip-synched to Asha Bhosle’s songs, we come today to Aarti Gupta. I think she was more famous for her modelling career in the 1980s than for her acting career, although she was quite well known in the horror genre, particularly for her appearances in the Ramsay Brothers’ Samri series.

The Samri series began with Purana Mandir (1984). The character Samri became such a hit with horror fans that he was revived, even though he had been eliminated in the climax of the original film. I am not a big fan of the horror genre, particularly the bloodthirsty variety that tends to dominate the scene.

I present one of the most popular ghazals, ‘kal chaudhveen kee raat thhee’ (1979) composed and rendered by Jagjit Singh. The ghazal is written by Jalandhar-born Pakistani poet, humourist, journalist and travel writer, Ibn-e-Insha (1927-1978).

I had a faint memory of this ghazal sometime in 1980s but at that time, there were other popular ghazals of Jagjit Singh which have remained in my memory like ‘ishq mein ghairat e jazbaat ne rone na diyaa’, ‘duniyaa jise kehte hain’, ‘baat niklegi to phir door talak jaayegi’, etc. It is only during the last 2-3 years that I have listened to this ghazal online umpteen times and have started admiring this ghazal for its soulful rendition.
