Film Song Compilations Part II by by Girdharilal Vishwakarma

Due to a clerical error by me, about half of the lists in the book started with a wrong number like 48, 54 etc. The mistake was pointed out by the author, it has been corrected and a new reprint is now available. I regret the error.

For the curious: When you copy an ordered list from one document to another keep your eye on the starting number. Lists have minds of their own and may continue without warning. I did check the first 100 pages, they seemed to be OK. Lesson leaned, check ALL pages in a document with lots of lists.

Hindi Films: Pictures of the Cast 1971 Part B

Kharag Singh
and
Professor Surjit Singh

 

In November 2022, I was surprised by an email from Kharag Singh from Ghatsila, Jharkhand informing me that he had captured thousands of pictures of Junior Artists and Background Dancers from hundreds of movies. He asked for my help in identifying them. I sent him books on these people published by me. He was very happy.

Naturally I asked him if he would help me with a similar project, he gladly agreed. I requested him to capture pictures of the cast from 1971-1980. Within days he stared sending me a large number of photos from movies. I realized that he is capturing so many photos that a book on 1971 alone will run to almost 500 pages! So we decided to split 1971 into many parts. This second one is for movies beginning with the letters I to M.

When you peruse the book you will realize that he has become an expert on recognizing obscure and small faces; obviously he has studied the books I sent him on Junior Artists and Group Dancers very thoroughly. I am proud to say that he can recognize people better and faster than me.
