Saat Saath
Musings & Amusings

With threads on the "Muse & Music", "Three Reigning Queens", and "One of a Kind" in steady progress, I thought I will divert my attention to some other actors of the last half of the last century whose work has resulted in some great music. I received feelers from several members to start something like this, even though not at this scale. With these thoughts in mind, I have selected to look into the works of seven actors. These are:

Amitabh Bachchan
Dharmendra
Jeetendra
Manoj Kumar
Raaj Kumar
Rajendra Kumar
Sunil Dutt

Between them they made nealy 1200 movies. Starting today, I will post albums from their movies, probably one for each day. I happen to have CDs of most of this work, but may need occasional help. The Forum members have been gracefully great in cooperating. Thank you for all your suport. I am hoping I will continue to get similar support for this thread as well.

Now let us look at the individual filmographies of these actors ...

(Raaj) Ghamand (1955)

There were so many good music directors came and gone during 40's and 50's who provided a glimpse of their skills, but alas in only a few movies. Take for example, the music director for this movie, Gulshan Shafi. I was so intrigued in finding more details about him after listening to the three songs I have from this album. But I couldn't find anything to write home about. (He provided music for "Rangila Jawan" in 1940.) Apart from the three songs I am uploading here, it appears like I am missing seven songs. If anyone of you kind souls can share these, we will be thankful to you.

I've always been quite confused about this MD. Is his name Gulshan Shafi or Gulshan Sufi? Or are they 2 separate individuals? Can anybody shed some light on this?

Thanks

probably two. Ghamand seems to be only movie done by Gulshan Shafi.
while Gulshan safi did his work in the 40s.
