An obscure film ‘Ranee’ (1943), which was a bi-lingual film made by Calcutta’s Barua Productions.
The film was produced and directed by PC Barua for Barua Productions, Calcutta. The music was by Kamal Dasgupta. Barring a few big movies, the Hindi-Bangla bilingual films did not become as successful as their Bangla versions. I feel the reasons were mainly two. One was that the cast of such films consisted of most names, with which the Hindi audience was not familiar. The second point was the style of acting and the dialogue delivery of the Bangla actors was deemed strange in Hindi belt. The Hindi used in films made in Bengal was too pure to be of the liking of people who were used to Hindustani language. The audience preferred ‘pyar‘ or ‘muhabbat‘ to ‘prem‘, for example.
The cast of this film was Jahar Ganguli, Kalavati, PC Barua, Jamuna, Patience Cooper, Bikram Kapoor etc. The music of the film was not popular. The year 1943 was a year when lots of films provided melodious music. There were films like ‘Aabroo’, ‘Ishara’, ‘Kanoon’, ‘Kismat’, ‘Nadaan’, ‘Nai Kahani’, ‘Najma’, ‘Namaste’, ‘Naukar’, ‘Panghat’, ‘Poonji’, ‘Prithvi Vallabh’, ‘Ram Rajya’, ‘Sanjog’, ‘Shakuntala’, ‘Tansen’, ‘Taqdeer’ etc. Songs of popular singers like Saigal and Noorjehan were on everyone’s lips. In this situation, films like ‘Ranee’ with music below par could not make any impact.
The movie has nine songs in it. Three songs have been covered in the past.
Here is the fourth song from the movie to appear in the blog. The song is a duet sung by an unknown male voice and an unknown female voice. Pt Madhur is the lyricist. Music is composed by Kamal Dasgupta.
Only audio of the song is available.
I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the identity of the singers and also on the picturisation of the song.
I have not been able to get a few words in the lyrics. I request our readers with keener ears to help fill in the blanks/ suggest corrections in the lyrics as applicable.

Lyrics
ummeed kya ho geet ki
jab toot jaayen taa aa aa aar
murjhaaye huye dil mein rahe
kis liye bahaar
murjhaaye huye dil mein rahe
kis liye bahaar
sisken na bhare saaz pe
kaisa ye raag hai
sisken na bhare saaz pe
kaisa ye raag hai
mausam hai suhaana
gulshan hai deewaana
thhandi hawa mein aaj kyun
behti ye aag hai
thhandee hawaa meinaaj kyun
behti ye aag hai
aahon se dil ke saaz ko
suljha raha hoon main
aahon se dil ke saaz ko
suljha raha hoon main
in do se apne aap ko
behla raha hoon main
in do se apne aap ko
behla raha hoon main
achcha naheen hai aag ko
yoon dil mein chhupaana
achcha naheen hai aag ko
yoon dil mein chhupaana
kyun hote ashqbaar
aayegi phir bahaar
kyun hote ashqbaar
aayegi phir bahaar
roney ke baad hansne ka
aata hai zamaana
roney ke baad hansne ka
aata hai zamaana
rone mein mazaa le rahe hain
ishq aur armaan
rone mein mazaa le rahe hain
ishq aur armaan
ab to hansi bhi ban gayee hai
dard kee mehmaan
ab to hansi bhi ban gayee hai
dard kee mehmaaaaan

उम्मीद क्या हो गीत की
जब टूट जाएँ ता॰॰आ॰॰र
मुरझाए हुये दिल में रहे
किस लिए बहार
मुरझाए हुये दिल में रहे
किस लिए बहार
सिसकें ना भरे साज पे
कैसा ये राग है
सिसकें ना भरे साज पे
कैसा ये राग है
मौसम है सुहाना
गुलशन है दीवाना
ठंडी हवा में आज क्यों
बहती ये आग है
ठंडी हवा में आज क्यों
बहती ये आग है
आहों से दिल के साज को
सुलझा रहा हूँ मैं
आहों से दिल के साज को
सुलझा रहा हूँ मैं
इन दो से अपने आप को’
बहला रहा हूँ मैं
इन दो से अपने आप को’
बहला रहा हूँ मैं
अच्छा नहीं है आग को
यूं दिल में छुपाना
अच्छा नहीं है आग को
यूं दिल में छुपाना
क्यों होते अश्क़बार
आएगी फिर बहार
क्यों होते अश्क़बार
आएगी फिर बहार
रोने के बाद हंसने का
आता है ज़माना
रोने के बाद हंसने का
आता है ज़माना
रोने मैने मज़ा ले रहे हैं
इश्क़ और अरमान
रोने मैने मज़ा ले रहे हैं
इश्क़ और अरमान
अब तो हंसी भी बन गई है
दर्द की मेहमान
अब तो हंसी भी बन गई है
दर्द की मेहमान
