It is quite common for me to remark that many of the songs being posted are songs that I came across only recently. And I also find myself remarking frequently that I found these songs to be gem stuff, even though the movies as well as the songs contained in these movies failed to get [...]

Suno ji suno hamaari bhi suno

Dilip Kumar, Raj Kapoor and Dev Anand were the three biggest male stars of Bollywood movies for nearly two decades. Considering that song and dance plays such important roles in Bollywood movies, including the movies in which these actors acted, it is interesting to note that Raj Kapoor and Dev Anand successfully dodged dancing in [...]

In old Bollywood movies, most leadng actors would be shown seated on a grand piano and singing a song. Now it is not possible to sing and play a grand piano simultaneously, but when you are lip syncingto some one else’s voice and music is someone else’s creation, as are the lyrics,then nothing is impossible [...]

When one is looking for musical gems from the past, there are just too many of them. One big source of such great songs is the so called B and C grade movies. Look for the music of the music directors of such movies, and you will strike pay dirt.

“Kan Kan Mein Bhagwaan” (1963) was a mythological movie, and as such movies went, it was a B grade movie. Few people remember this movie or its songs, but I find that the songs of this movie were as good as the music of any A grade movie.

People who judge India by Bollywood movies and by its songs, could well assume that boys and girls in India spend most of their times meeting each other and romancing. Having grown up in India, I assure you that the facts are much different from what is depicted in these movies.

Maazandaraan Maazandaraan

I became aware of this song only recently when I read a review of “Rustam Sohrab” (1963) at MemsaabStory . The Prince of Turannak hatches a plot to Kidnap the Shah of Iran at the behest of the king of Mazandaraan. The prince goes to Shah’s court disguised as a poet and sings praises of [...]

“Akeli Mat Jaiyyo” (1963) was one of those movies that failed at the box office despite boasting of names like Rajendra “Jubilee” Kumar and Meena Kumari. Madan Mohan yet again had the mortification of watching his music go down the drain because his songs from this movie failed to take off as a result of [...]
