I am part of a music group devoted to Hindi songs, film and non-film. We have a weekly host who runs a theme, around which members have to post songs. I had a theme related to lyricists with place names-Indori, Jaipuri, Bhopali, Sultanpuri etc. This was my report at the end of that week.
Theme Owner Report for
Bhopal se Jaipur.
Behno aur
bhaiyo,
Is hafte
phir JCB jaag utha. An Uttar Bharat discovery tour! Pilibhiti, Kashmiri, three
Jaipuris and a couple of Lakhnavis were unexpected. Ek Hyderabadi bhi nikla,
dhoondhne ke baad. With a tadka from Panipatis and Dewasis and so on.. Gorakhpuri
and Kanpuri were somewhat expected. And some were really far out, unknown to me
at least. Shows how committed to digging our members are- even more than
Bangalore (or Chennai) road-diggers! Came up with gold. Heartening for me were
also the plethora of black and white era songs, most of which were both lyrical
AND tuneful. Naturally! MSMTans ko Soorma (Bhopali) ghoshit kar diya jaaye,
after this sterling performance. Binaca geet mala style bigul bhi bajaaya jaaye,
is Khushi ko zahir karte hue..
I started
out imagining that 5-6 mainstream poets/lyricists would dominate. How wrong I
was, and happy to be! Good to have Indira back, and Ratnamadhavi, adding 4
moons to the theme. Students ki last minute entry ki aadat ab tak barkaraar
hai, ye Ishita ne saabit kar diya. 😊
Admins. ko
salaam, aur sabhi doston ko Ram ram, meri agli theme tak. I am hoping to meet
at least one MSMT member this weekend, magar let it remain a secret till it
happens.. 😊
