This time it’s a duet of Asha Bhosle and Usha Mangeshkar. The song is “Lo Chal Gaya ….. Kahin Aar Kahin Paar”. It is written by S H Bihari and composed by Ganesh.

All the details of this movie and its story are mentioned in my earlier post “Jaam Honthon Se Laga Loon” from the same film.

Hullo Atuldom

18th August 2025. It is the 92nd birthday (completes 91) of a most revered lyricist/ poet, writer and film director of Hindi Films. He was born Sampooran Singh Kalra in a Sikh family in the small town of Dina (now in Pakistan). Deeply engrossed in literature and poetry right from his school days, he avidly listened to Hindustani music, attended concerts by Pt. Ravi Shankar and Ustad Ali Akbar Khan.

His family moved to Delhi after Partition, but Sampooran moved to Bombay to pursue his ambition to become a writer. He started working as a mechanic in a garage and wrote poetry in his free time under the pen name (first) Gulzar Deenvi & later on (simply) Gulzar. All this is public knowledge.

(Lyricist Kavi Pradeep-33)
—————————–

I have been presenting songs penned by Kavi Pradeep which are yet to be posted here on this blog. We are all aware that Kavi Pradeep mostly wrote songs for movies from ‘mythological genres’. In such movies there are songs related to ‘mythological stories’ and ‘incidents’ which Kavi Pradeep brought to us in lyrics form with nuances such that one can easily visualize the incident happening in front of him/her. Picturisation of such songs is also a treat to watch. Readers might be remembering the recent song about ‘Krishna-Sudama meet’ which was posted here on the ‘world friendship day’. This song is a wonderful song both in terms of lyrics and picturisation.

Today, Janmashtami– the birth festival of Lord Krishna, is being celebrated all over the country. On this occasion I am presenting a song which is about the baal leelaa(s)’ of Lord Krishna. This song is sung by Usha Mangeshkar and chorus and the picturisation of this song has several child artistes and female artistes performing on it. The location of this song and the visuals around are lovely and they help in bringing to us the childhood innocence, playfulness and fun that the friends of Krishn and the Gopees are having.

YouTube is an American social media and online video sharing platform owned by Google. It is an amazing tool that helps us in our blogging expedition. Based on our previous search history, it keeps suggesting links to videos.

That means, for followers of ATULSONGADAY, YouTube will keep suggesting videos of Hindi Fillum Sangeet. The suggestions may also be based on any particular actor, movie or artist, specially if we have looked up for songs of the concerned artist.

So, as I was browsing through YouTube yesterday, I came across a song which had Sunny Deol trying to shake a leg in tandem with Sridevi for a song that was playbacked (I am sure there is no such word in the English dictionary) by Suresh Wadkar and Asha Bhosle. It had Meenakshi Seshadri & Anil Kapoor, standing among the people who were watching the proceedings. On looking up for details, on our blog of course, I found that it has found its place on the blog in 2022 with this post by Avinashji.

Today’s song is from a C grade stunt film Khooni Khazana-1965. The film was directed by A.Shamshir and the music was by S.Kishen. The cast included Vijaya Chaudhari ( real name Qurasha Begum), Sudhir, Bhagwan, Madan Puri, Shaikh Mukhtar, Bela Bose, Jeevan Kala, Heera Sawant and many other small-time actors. This C grade film was among the last few stunt action films, which were on their way to the end of their era.

I was a great fan and admirer of C grade action/stunt/costume films from my young age. The decorative sets and the unusually long, shining and attractive costumes in the films, the daredevil stunts and the hand or the sword fighting in these films impressed me. Unfortunately, as I grew older, the number of such films was reducing and by the time I almost stopped running after films by the 1970 beginning, C grade action, stunt and Costume films almost disappeared from the theatres. Perhaps their regular audience thinned out or the stuntmen became old or producers of such films turned to other more respectable Genres. Whatever the reason, reality was that the end of such films had occurred !

Hello everyone!

It has been SUCH a long time since my last post here that I’ve forgotten how to even write posts.

So this one will most probably be a short one, unlike my past marathon posts.
I say “most probably” because I might intend a short post, but once I start writing, my thoughts end up having a life of their own. I would be an editor’s worst nightmare. 😊

Anyway, let’s see how it goes.

Ok, so the main reason for this post is a sort of coincidence that I’m taking as a sign to make me write.

Today’s song is from the film Piya Milan-1958.

The 50’s decade was full of a deluge of films from the south. After S.S.Vasan proved that it was possible to capture the All India Hindi Audience market for South-made films, there was a mad rush and almost all major and minor film companies from south tried to get at least a small piece of the “Hindi Audience Cake” for their films. Films came in the shapes of Bilinguals, remakes and dubbed ones. Bilinguals – when a film is made in 2 languages at a time, one language being Hindi, remakes were new Hindi films made on old Hit films of South Indian languages. Dubbed films were films made in the southern language, with a sound track of Hindi language.

Regulars on the blog are aware that I am very fond of Qawwaalees from our Hindi films and I have been presenting them whenever I find an opportunity to do so. Also I try to bring Qawwaalee songs here that are lesser heard or never heard songs, whenever I came across such songs.

The Qawwaalee song under discussion is one such song. It is from the movie ‘Jawaan Mard-1966’. This movie was directed by Ishwar Lal for ‘Kedar Lakshami Productions, Bombay’. The cast of this movie has Dara Singh, Mumtaz, Madhumati, Aruna Irani, B.M. Vyas, Sapru, Gopal Sehgal, Ratnamala, Babu Raje, Tuntun, Sabina, Anwari Bai and others.
