That these names are all MUSIC DIRECTORS who ,amongst others, also made Lata ji sing and some great songs if their era.
@y_kale , continuing his spellbinding article brings it sequel this time. But do read the first part before reading this one and feel as numb as I did.
Sequels of some movies or novels are always awaited but this time around, I was waiting expectantly for @y_kale to write the second part.
I am not a fan of 40s or even many 50s songs. I find many of then boring but then I am not Yogesh!
This guy delved so deep in his amazing
Research and came up with this article. Words are less....some songs and respective music directors have been showcased but what a detailed write up.
And @y_kale is so good at selecting songs and MDs who we would otherwise not even cared to know about.
And like he rightly says
"Though none of these composers had a lion’s share in her career, a few golden bricks that they contributed to the edifice of the Empress’s magnificent musical empire cannot be certainly overlooked".
On #AirForceDay , I recall a film that left a long lasting impact on me. Mind you, the film was sans the usual glamour attached with any film based on defence.
Vijeta!
Directed by the brilliant Govind Bijlani and produced by Mr. Shashi Kapoor, who I consider one of the finest
Ever film producer in Bollywood. Almost every film of his was a class. I use the wird Almost because Shashi Kapoor also produced the forgettable Ajooba (a nice take on Arabian nights).
Coming back to Vijeta, the film is about a confused young man (Kunal Kapoor) who plays the
Role of Angad, son of Shashi Kapoor ( portraying the role of a c grade film producer ) and Rekha.
The boy joins Air Force, much to the chagrin of his father.
The training, the war sequence and the way planes were shown, only someone like Nihlani could.
