Muse & Music
Most film loving folks think that the music made for films from 50’s through 80’s represents golden age of music. This may be debatable. However, one thing is certain. Several great musicals emerged during this period and we saw the rise of many singing legends during this time. One way to take a closer look at the music of the Golden Age is to look into the period through the female stars who were popular in this time frame. Because it is just about impossible to cater for all the stars, I came to a conclusion that probably the following 12 stars will sufficiently represent movies that are part of this golden era. These are: Asha Parekh Hema Malini Mala Sinha Mumtaz Nutan Rekha Sadhana Saira Banu Sharmila Tagore Vyjayanti Mala Waheeda Rehman Zeenat Aman Others may come up with a different list. But for the music of the Golden Age I want to share with our fellow members these stars probably make a fair representation. Let us look at filmographies of these actresses and see if we can come to some conclusions. I will present the filmographies in the order listed above. |

Pandava Vanavasam (1964) - A Telugu Movie
Hema Malini made her debut in this Telugu mythological movie in a dance number. This movie starred three late great actors of Telugu cinema. Savitri, its leading lady, is one of the most accomplished actresses of our time. Rama Rao, who later entered politics and became the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, played many such mythogical roles in his career. Ranga Rao, another great character actor of Telugu cinema, also had a major role in this movie. This movie has many songs and several verses totalling nearly one hour of time duration. I was able to procure all these songs from CD, LP, and DVD. They all are of great quality. I will upload these in three separate back to back posts. The third post mainly consists of verses. Here is a description of the songs from the first post ... Attached image(s) |
