Atul ji,
The actress in the above song is DURGA KHOTE.
VILLAGE GIRL (1945),produced by Ramanik Production was a very entertaining movie and was a good grosser.Directed by K.Amarnath,its cast was-Noor Jehan,M.Nazir,Jagadish Sethi,Durga Khote,Rama Shukul,Anant Marathe,Rajkumari Shukla,Rajkumari Kapoor,Bikram Kapoor,F.M.Khan etc.
The story was that Jaani (M.Nazir) is a vagabond and his mother(Durga Khote) suffers due to his misdeeds.Once he goes to neighbouring village and meets Bibbo(Noor Jehan).They fall in love.One Hari(Jagdish Sethi) is also loving
her.He gives a loan to her father.Jaani wants to reform and starts doing kheti,but Hari gets him arrested for a theft and murder.Jaani is freed after Bibbo helps to find the murderer.Jaani goes and joins Army,when he comes back Bibbo is about to marry Hari.It is then proved that Hari has impregnated another girl and then everything is fine with Bibbo Marrying Jaani.
The film was so successful,that after migrating to Pakistan,M.Nazir remade the film in Punjabi titled ” Pherey ” in 1949.This too was successful and became the first Silver jubilee film of Pakistan.

Hi Atul,
It was wonderful to listen to such an old Bhajan. The lady singing appears to me to be Durga Khote…whom we have seen in mother roles in a lot of movies. She was basically a Marathi actress. I am going by the charming, dimpled face in the video… almost certainly it appears to be Durga Khote…maybe our other friends can confirm.
