This is a beautiful song sung by Pt. Kumar Gandharva from a marathi movie 'Zakol' Urmila Matondkar happens to be in the audience. Her age would be around 8-10 then.
On the Holi festival day, Kumar Gandharva used to give a free concert in Indore. Since the concert hall was behind my house, I attended all of his cocerts. He was musical God to us youngsters. I also had the pleasure to listen to Ajay Pohonkar as a young artist. Mr. Kirkire, with the tanpura, was a family friend. He & his wife were disciples of KG.
आज अचानक गाठ पडे भलत्या वेळी भलत्या मेळी असता मन भलतीचकडे नयन वळविता सहज कुठेतरी एकाएकी तूच पुढे दचकुनि जागत जीव नीजेतच क्षणभर अंतरपट उघडे गूढ खूण तव कळून नाकळून भांबावुन मागे मुरडे निसटुनि जाई संधीचा क्षण सदा असा संकोच नडे
Deshpande introduced free style --Muktachhand (मुक्तछंद)-- poetry to Marathi literature. He also introduced in Marathi Dashapadi (दशपदी), a new genre of sonnets comprising ten lines. His collection of poems with the same name Dashapadi (दशपदी) received a Sahitya Akademi Award in 1977.
@yogeshwaryogeshwaryo. I agree that KG is musical divinity incarnate, but due precisely to that WE rather than he should bow, don't you think ? What a heavenly experience, indeed, listening to KG any time singing in any raaga ! outstanding upload, Avinash Desai.
@amindeepika Kavi Anil was a milestone in Marathi Poetry.father of Dashapadi, his earlier poetry was both romantic and idealistic. His critics had a complaint- "he is too easy to understand!"-tyanchi kavita Subodh aahe- durbodh naahi! I am however also an admirer of your granny- Kusumavati bai. I read their Kusumanil - a unique experiment this too- very early in life! Ajuni rusoon aahe- was it really a sort of obituary for Kusumavati?
This poem is by Kavi Anil - A.R. Deshpande - my grandfather.

आज अचानक गाठ पडे
भलत्या वेळी भलत्या मेळी
असता मन भलतीचकडे
नयन वळविता सहज कुठेतरी
एकाएकी तूच पुढे
दचकुनि जागत जीव नीजेतच
क्षणभर अंतरपट उघडे
गूढ खूण तव कळून नाकळून
भांबावुन मागे मुरडे
निसटुनि जाई संधीचा क्षण
सदा असा संकोच नडे
Anilanche geet wa kumar gandhatwanche swar mhanje dudhat khadi sakhar...aprateem..

No. This poem was written in Aug 1947, when Kusumavati was very much by his side
Ulhas Deshpande
Isn't this Bhimpalasi?
