Aap Hi ke Geeth - 519

       

              

               AAP HI KE GEETH 


While browsing through the NET on YouTube the other day , I came across Yesteryear’s PURANE FILMON KE SANGEETH and AAP HI KE GEETH Signature Tune of RADIO CEYLON . This was a pleasant surprise and brought back many old Happy Memories . 

PURANE FILMON KE SANGEETH used to commence every morning at 7.30 am and end with the evergreen final KL SAIGAL song before the 8.00 am deadline . 

AAP HI KE GEETH at 8.00 am would have the Been Tune of MERA MAN DOLAY  ——KAUN BAJAYE BAANSURIYAAN of the old Film NAGIN as its Signature Tune . This one hour program used to have all the popular songs of that span played at the request of the listeners . There were names of places like Rajnandgaon , Nanded and Jhumri Talaiyya with which people became acquainted with , thanks to the repeated mention of these places along with the names of the people who made a request for a popular song . 

Both these were extremely popular programs and almost all the houses would be tuned into Station Radio Ceylon from 7. 00 am till 9.00 am everyday . 

These programs had an unmatched charm of their own and there was an anxiety and suspense about the next song that was going to be played . 

I guess the present generation will hardly be in vibe with this practice as listening to the Radio is very much a thing of the past as the NET now makes it possible to listen to any song at any hour of the day or night at the flick of a few buttons on your Mobile Phone . The Radio now finds place in the Attic of a house or at best as an antique showpiece in the Drawing Room of a few well to do houses . 

There is no RADIO CEYLON  , PURANE FILMON KE SANGEETH or AAP HI KE GEETH now but for old timers like me , it surely brings back fond memories of a Golden Age of Music on the Radio.

AYODHYA YAATRA DAY 1 - 702

 AYODHYA YAATRA  DAY - ONE     Sundar Holiday Travels  As instructed  by Mr Ashok of Sunder Travels , we were dot on time at 9.00 thanks primarily due to smooth flow of traffic from Vadapalani to the Chennai  Airport .  Other Yatrees also slowly trooped in . Ashok seemed to have his way with the Indigo Airways . Group Check in saved us a lot of time . Lunch packet Distribution done we were on our way and were before time at Lucknow .  Lucknow was a lot different from what I had imagined , airport was spotlessly clean as was their baggage handling services .  Mr Ashok saw to it that we were off on a Bus to Ayodhya in a flash . It was a near Two and a Half Hour journey and we reached the Resort by 5.30 pm .  Our Chennai to Lucknow Flight  was by The  Indigo Airbus A 320 Flight 6E 515  Aircraft with a capacity of 180 Passengers.  That , we from the Sunder Travels made up for the larger part of these Seats made ...

Ayodhya Yaatraa Day -3 - 704

Image
                  Ayodhya Yatra - Day 3  The highlight of the day was to be the Holy Dip in the Triveni Sangamam .  For the uninformed Triveni Sangamam is the place where the Three Rivers Ganga Yamuna and Saraswathy converge into one . It is the place where Veni Daanam is given after a bath in the River .  The 20 Minute Boat Ride takes you to this place of convergence of these three rivers . The Boatmen help you to take a dip in the water . Old set of clothes are discarded symbolising the discarding of everything bad and the start of a new fresh life .  Ganga is slightly murky while the Yamuna is clearer , Saraswathy is Antervaahini and it converges under water .  The Dhambadhi Pooja after the Dip in the Holy Waters  was performed with all the diligence that the occasion demands . The Sastrigal performed the Ritual which is an almost second time Marriage where vows are taken to lead a life in all happiness and be...

 VAIKOM VISIT - IN GODS OWN                     COUNTRY  Kerala has always been my favourite place of visit over the years . Its cleanliness , its greenery,  waterways , not to forget its spirituality and beautiful people in more ways than one  have always held  a special attraction for  me . We , that is me and my Better Half have visited Kerala before  and visited many of  its  Temples and Tourist Attractions.  One place missing in this list has been the Viakom  Sri Mahadeva Temple . We decided to embark  on  a visit to this place and Mami was spot on to point out that there was a direct Train from Ambasamudram to Vaikom Road by the 16792 Palaruvi Express starting from ASD at 11.57 PM and reaching Vaikom Road Station at 7.30 Am the next morning . Nothing could be better ,  We made the Reservations for both the Up  and Down Jorneys on the 11 th and 13 th Jun...
