We all know about Binaca geetmala.And I have posted on Binaca geetmala 1971 final in the past as well.We saw in that geetmala that every song was as good as the other, and more importantly, every song is still popular with people familiar with those songs. It was a golden year for Bollywood music and for Binaca geetmala.
But was this the best year as far as Bollywood movie songs are concerned? No, it was not. There were even better years than 1971. If 1971 was a golden year then there were platinum and titanium years as well.Now, which year was the titanium year in the history of Bollywood movie songs ? ( Assuming that titanium is the most precious metal of them all). Which was the year, in which every song was memorable and remains so till this date ?
After going through the list of all songs figuring in all finals from 1954 onwards ( it is available on internet), I have no doubt in my mind that the year 1968 was the absolute zenith in the history of Bollywood movie songs and Binaca geetmala.Remember, there used to be 32 songs figuring in the final two weeks of the year, and when I say that the year 1968 was special, I am talking not just for the top 16 songs, I am talking about 32 songs. All 32 songs were extremely popular, and remain so till this date.
And I feel that it is my duty to bring Binaca getmala 1968 to the notice of all those who were obviuosly too young at that time ( including me). Read on,listen to the songs, and enjoy. I am sure you will enjoy this Binaca geetmala just as much as the people lucky enough to listen it live at that time must have felt.

Hey Atul..this is Raja from CF.
Seeing this 1968 Binaca Geetmala collection - that too presented by you in your style - makes me ecstatic. Each song can be put in the evergreen category.
Great to see your blog - I am sure you will get many visitors who will enjoy your writing style. There is something about it - we at CF know and now others will also hopefully realise it.
Good luck with your blogging efforts.
Thanks a lot,Raja.You are the first visitor and commentator on my blog. And I am privileged to have you as the first one to do so.
