        Song: Din Hai Suhana Aaj Pehali Taarikh Hai
                Khush Hai Zamaana Aaj Pehali Taarikh Hai

        Film:   Pehali Tarikh (1955)
        Music:  Sudhir Phadke
        Lyrics: Rajendrakrishna?
        Singer: Kishor Kumar
        *ing:   Kishor Kumar, Ashok Kumar?, ?

This is a good choice for today, as today is  1st  September.  In
immortalising  this  number,  more  than  Kishor  Kumar or Sudhir
Phadke or Rajendrakrishna, Radio Ceylone has  played  far  bigger
role!  As some of you know, this song is aired even today at 7:30
am on first day of every month.

Kishor Kumar, sung this  song  in  his  typical  style.  No,  not
yodelling;  but  the  kind of energy and joy he usually fills in.
For Sudhir Phadke, this must be a  unique  composition,  in  that
it's  quite  different  from  his  style  and  reminds  me  of  C
Ramchandra.
