No sensible discussion has happened around it.” Faye says, “We are living in a post-truth world where ridiculous claims take root and attention spans have shrunk too much for nuanced conversations.”On the Congress's response to allegations about links with Soros, Manisha says, “Their communication is stale. You can't keep repeating the same thing without innovation.” She points out that news channels have been quoting dubious sources like “nancho.net” to accuse Sonia Gandhi of collusion with Soros.The panel then discusses the misuse of dowry laws and the tragic case of a techie's suicide in Bengaluru. Anand says, “Lawyers often weaponise these cases, and the Supreme Court has already intervened to mandate preliminary investigations before arrests.” Faye emphasises the need for balanced discourse. On media coverage of the issue, Abhinandan says, “The TikTokisation of news has taken over.” On the Kapoor family's meeting with Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Manisha says, “The event was supposed to honour Raj Kapoor, but it ended up being all about praising Modi.”This and a lot more.

Dive into the life of Mukesh Chand Mathur, one of India's most beloved playback singers. In this episode of my radio podcast, I explore his incredible journey, from his humble beginnings to becoming a voice that defined an era of timeless Bollywood classics. Join Rajesh Thakur on Tune India Radio as he celebrates the iconic songs of Mukesh, shares personal stories about his legacy, and plays some of his all-time favorite tracks that continue to evoke nostalgia and emotion. Mukesh Chand Mathur, known mononymously as Mukesh, is synonymous with soulful melodies that continue to resonate with music lovers worldwide. Born in 1923 in Delhi, Mukesh's musical journey began with his early training in classical music, but his breakthrough came when he entered the film industry in the 1940s. His deep, emotive voice struck a chord with listeners, and he quickly became a favorite playback singer for Bollywood's leading stars, particularly Raj Kapoor. Mukesh's songs, including the timeless classic "Kabhi Kabhi Aditi," have since earned him a revered place in the hearts of millions. What sets Mukesh apart is his ability to convey raw emotions through music, whether it's the longing of love, the pain of separation, or the joy of life. His voice became the quintessential expression of romanticism in Hindi cinema. Over his illustrious career, Mukesh gave us unforgettable tracks that remain classics in Indian music history. His contribution to Bollywood music is celebrated even today, and his legacy lives on through the generations of music lovers and artists who continue to be inspired by his remarkable career.

It is a film which we both(Saahil and Saqib) feel deserves to be in all lists that cover great hindi films. By some definition it is also film noir and by most definitions it is a social commentary of a very young nation. The story telling and the larger message still remains very poignant even in today's much complex society and its social equations.

हिंदी सिनेमा के मशहूर लेखक और पत्रकार, ख्वाजा अहमद अब्बास की टिपण्णी सिनेमा के स्टॉक किरदारों पर और साथ ही किस्सा एक ऐसी अदाकारा का जो परदे पर भले ही बेईमान वैम्प का रोल निभाती थी, लेकिन असलियत में अपने काम और हुनर की तरफ उसकी शिद्दत काबिल-इ-तारीफ थी. कौन थी ये मशहूर एक्ट्रेस? -------------- Khwaja Ahmad Abbas was the “genius” writer behind most of Raj Kapoor's superhit (and on one occasion flop) films- Awaara, Shri 420, Ram Teri Ganga Maili and Mera Naam Joker. However these came later. K.A Abbas had already proved his mettle as a writer with Shantaram's ‘Dr. Kotnis ki Amar Kahani' and Chetan Anand's ‘Neecha Nagar'. He helped “strugglers” like Dev Anand and later Amitabh Bachchan. His stories were often considered not “literary” enough but he stood steadfast in his belief about telling the stories of everyday people in language that was theirs. -------------------- Look for other stories on StoryJam by K A Abbas: Ababeel Tiddi --------------------- Listen to Hindi kahaniyan and Urdu Kahaniyan by famous as well as lesser known writers. You will find here stories from everyone from Premchand to Ismat Chughtai ; Suryabala to Mohan Rakesh, Kaleshwar and Mannu Bhandari. ----Social Media Links: ---- Facebook : https://www.facebook.com/StoryjamArti Instagram : @arti_storyjam Club House : @artijain --------------------- #khwajaAhmadAbbas #KAAbbas #rkfilms #vshantaram #chetananand #Awaara, #Shri420, #RamTeriGangaMaili #MeraNaamJoker #rajkapoor #devanand #writer #hindicinema #bollywood #IPTA #ProgressiveWritersMovement #punjab #urdu #urdustories #urdukahani #listenstories #Hindi #hindikahani #radiostories #storyjam #hindistories #urdustories #hindikahani #khwajaahmadabbas #shri420 #ramterigangamaili #progressivewriters #urdukahani #hindishortstories #shortstories #bedtimestories #audiostories #Bollywood #bollywoodkahani #KAAbbas #rkfilms #rajkapoor #chetananand #cinema #hindicinema #rajkapoormovies #films #filmi --- Send in a voice message: https://anchor.fm/storyjam/message

Next up in our series Women Superstars of Indian Cinema: Waheeda Rehman! We LOVE Waheeda Rehman—and frankly we're not sure we can be friends with anyone who doesn't, but does such a person even exist? The major films discussed today are Guide (1965) Kohraa (1964), and CID (1956, her first Hindi role). Neither of us could handle a rewatch of Pyaasa or Kagaaz Ke Phool, no matter how great they are. It seems like this series is also, inadvertently, going to include at least one truly annoying man per episode. Last time it was Raj Kapoor, and this time it's Dev Anand—who, to be fair, is way less irritating than Raj Kapoor and way less irritating in the films we watched than he would be later in his career. Nevertheless, he persisted. https://open.spotify.com/show/7Ib9C1X5ObvN18u9WR0TK9 or Apple Podcasts https://podcastsconnect.apple.com/my-podcasts/show/filmi-ladies/aacadcfe-4195-40a4-ba16-e528118ec892 @filmiladies on Instagram and Twitter Pitu is @pitusultan on Instagram Beth is @bethlovesbolly on Twitter Email us at filmiladies at gmail Our logo was designed by London-based artist Paula Ganoo @velcrothoughts on Instagram https://www.art2arts.co.uk/paula-vaughan
