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. |

The telugu film Jaya simha came in 1955 where as hindi one was released in 1959. I believe that the telugu film was dubbed into Hindi....and needless to say, the film sank without a trace.
TV Raju is the original composer no doubt. Ramesh Naidu was give the task to make the music for hindi version. the reason might be that Ramesh naidu was well versed in Hindi and could take the work without any qualms.. Just my two pence.. After silence that which comes nearest to expressing the inexpressible is music.
