A still from the film The train
In popular 1970s Hindi cinema, the train became central to an imagined world of infrastructural achievement and finesse. Sadly, we re still content to live in the dream
In the 1960s and ’70s, the train in
India cinema starts to appear as a space of sophistication and luxury. Whether in art films’ like
Satyajit Ray s Nayak (which I mentioned last week), or a full-on commercial Hindi film like the racy Rajesh Khanna-starrer The Train, the upper class railway compartment represents high standards of comfort and hospitality. This is true despite the fact that Ray, ever the realist, has a senior Calcutta executive in Nayak express annoyance that he can t even get a beer on the AC Deluxe Express – precursor to the Poorva Express, the train between Calcutta and Delhi before th ....

Dishonouring his legacy: Sahir Ludhianvi’s handwritten notes, letters, poems and photographs were found from a scrap shop in 2019 in Mumbai
Renu Sud Sinha
Born Abdul Hayee a hundred years ago, he called himself Sahir (meaning sorcerer, wizard, enchanter and magician) when the world started taking note of the magic of his words. As was the literary tradition those days, like Urdu poets Majrooh (Sultanpuri), Josh (Malihabadi), Firaq (Gorakhpuri), Daag (Dehlvi), he added the city of his birth as takhallus (pen-name) and a magician was born. In the preface to his book, ‘Sahir: A Literary Portrait’ (2019), Surinder Deol calls him ‘a mystery wrapped in an enigma’. ....

Remembering Sahir Ludhianvi

Remembering Sahir Ludhianvi
Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaye toh kya hai?’ ‘
Main pal do pal ka shayar hoon’, ‘
Chalo ek baar phir se ajnabi ban jayen hum dono’. However, I wonder if many will remember the lyricist on this day or mark the occasion in any meaningful manner, except for a small band of die-hard fans.

Part of a small clutch of highly talented lyricists like Majrooh Sultanpuri, Kaifi Azmi, Shailendra, Shakeel Badayuni and Rajendra Krishan, who ruled the Hindi film world in the 50s and 60s, the golden era of the Hindi film song, Sahir has written some brilliant songs that are difficult to forget. The Hindi film song, though not always great poetry, still needs to be taken seriously, if for no other reason than that it has touched and influenced millions of ordinary Indians, uneducated and illiterate though they may have been and has connected with listeners who may not even have watched the movie to which the songs belonged. Hindi film song ....

100 years of Sahir Ludhianvi: An essential, timeless poetic voice

100 years of Sahir Ludhianvi: An essential, timeless poetic voice
EDITOR S NOTE:
Firstpost s ode to the people s poet , through a collection of video tributes by seven leading Hindi film lyricists from Varun Grover to Kausar Munir, Irshad Kamil, Shellee, Raj Shekhar, Mayur Puri and Hussain Haidry. Each of these lyricists has picked the verses that speak most to them, explaining why Sahir s words resonate even three decades after his death.

MY FATHER had a great fondness for Mirza Ghalib. He would often read a couplet and provide an interpretation, which for a high schooler like me at that time was difficult to comprehend as Urdu had not been a part of my curriculum. By the time I entered college, Sahir was everywhere. His songs were heard on the radio, his movies attracted large audiences, and his poetry was the topic of conversations among friends. I was drawn to Sahir’s work in a way that I hadn’t been to Ghalib’s. One day I walked into a bookstore a ....
