ज़े-हाल-ए-मिस्कीं मकुन तग़ाफ़ुल
दुराय नैनाँ बनाए बतियाँ #AmeerKhusro
As most of us are exposed to Ghulami song penned by #gulzar which has nothing but four three words in Common, it it important to know the original work of Legendary Ameer Khusro, the 13th century saint-poet… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…
यकायक अज़ दिल दो चश्म जादू
ब-सद-फ़रेबम ब-बुर्द तस्कीं
किसे पड़ी है जो जा सुनावे
पियारे पी को हमारी बतियाँ

न नींद नैनाँ न अंग चैनाँ
न आप आवे न भेजे पतियाँ #AmeerKhusro

सखी पिया को जो मैं न देखूँ

@swanandkirkire@IAmSudhirMishra Now coming to the Class of #AmeerKhusro, this ghazal is a showcase of the genius of Amir Khusro, who like a master craftsman crafted and given it a unique dimension with the use of multiple languages without breaking the flow..

सपीत मन के वराय रखूँ
जो जा के पाऊँ पिया की खतियाँ
Coming back to Qawwali versions, #AmeerKhusro was a big favorite for many legendary qawwals for the sufiyana poetry. So many qawwalis are attributed to Khusro and this… twitter.com/i/web/status/1…

तुम्हारी पलकों से गिर के शबनम
हमारी आँखों में रुक गयी है #gulzar
Closing the Ze haal e miskin #AmeerKhusro thread with #NotByKhusro moment, the very popular film version by #Gulzar for JP Dutta's Ghulami composed by Laxmikant-Pyarelal.
Last week while talking at an international conference on Insolvency organised by ILA, had mentioned this in the context that some real life stories are even more interesting than cinema.
This strange one surely is a Film in Waiting
#Delhi hearts & "hides" some very interesting chapters of our History.
The long dense SouthRidge Jungle in heart of Delhi spans from Delhi Cantt to Jhandewalan.
Every day almost a few lacs people travel on the ring road alongside the #MonkeyForest [Shot from ITC Maurya Rooftop]
Next morning after my session, I got up early on Sunday at the Sunrise, as the Delhi jungle was just in front of me. I really wanted to explore a poignant tale of the History, with a twist of a Dark Comedy. After crossing the Simon Boliver statue, I could see a narrow entry point
My father's departure in Dec 2020 for Covid, took a lot away from within me. I developed a certain kind of detachment from watching Cinema. It stopped exciting me ever since & Have rarely seen Cinema & OTT stuff in last 2 yrs & even gave long break to our Podcast @ChaalHaal#MOMD
@ChaalHaal I did see 5-6 much awaited & recc'ed films like TheDisciple, MinnalMurali & Sherni & some segments from Anthology films of @ghaywan@Vasan_Bala, @AratiRaval & @ashutoshc06, still wasn't as excited abt new stuff as ever. But VasanB & @varungrover's new work is reviving interest
Finally am excited about a film after long as dear @Vasan_Bala's Monica O My Darling has arrived last night on @netflix. Tonight started watching & m surprised by a Kick-Ass opening sequence that it delivers. But stopped on the Titles when his name popped up, just for this thread
माफ़ कीजिये मगर मेरे हिसाब और रिसर्च से ये कन्हैया लाल मुंशी वाली कहानी अधूरी है. पिछले साल मैने कुछ पुराने दस्तावेज खंगाले हैं. और हंस का प्रचलित इतिहास विश्वस्त नहीं है. Sharing a few bits in this thread- गुस्ताखी माफ़ @profapm@MrinalPande1@irfaniyat@varungrover@asadkidwai
@profapm@MrinalPande1@irfaniyat@varungrover@asadkidwai प्रेमचंद ने अपने नाम के आगे 'मुंशी' शब्द का इस्तेमाल खुद कभी नहीं किया। न किसी ख़त में इसका ज़िक्र मिलता है न किसी समकालीन लेखकों के संस्मरणों में, हां, साल 1937 की 'हंस' पत्रिका में वो अपने उपनाम 'नवाबराय' पर मज़ाक करते हुए ज़रूर पढ़े गए।
'हंस' शुरु में तो प्रेमचन्द ने खुद ही निकाली थी, बनारस में सरस्वती प्रेस से, और 1943 की बायोग्राफी के मुताबिक, 1935 में के. एम. मुंशी पहली बार को-एडिटर बने.. उससे पहले के अखबारों में प्रेमचन्द के साथ मुंशी लिखा गया (1934 की कटिंग)
Jaan.E.Mann was a terrific album of its time with an amazing set of songs which were Poetic, Melodious, Youthful, Visual & Experimental with a sane #AnuMalik at work with #Gulzar & Sonu as the key drivers
My fav is the grand musical innovative take where d song becomes interesting tool for story telling to convey d back-story of protagonists (romance-marriage-career- mistakes-separation-divorce) in just 8mins song #JaanEMann
The quiz questions are available in the link but anyway sharing d answers (random order) & will also try to bring some value in the answers in d thread, with interesting answers received
@niketan_r@indranath@paddythemuse@ShiivZ Q09 was the toughest question of the lot [Who mentored Shankar Jaikishan during making of their debut Barsaat] & only two @ChhatrasalSingh & @anandsivasankar gave the correct Answer: Husnlal-Bhagatram - Shankar had assisted them in early yrs, so they came for review/suggestions
