Mukesh and His Composers – 31

Continuing with the series, we introduce the works of composer Madholal Damodar Master’s association with Mukesh. Well, the composer’s name doesn’t seem to be very familiar, but he has his own place, fame and history in the annals of pioneering days of HFM.

Shri ArunkumarDeskmukh ji has a good synopsis of him in his post for the song “Kariye Kasrat Ka Prachaar Jai Bajrang Pukaro” from the 1940 film ‘Diamond Queen’. It is also interesting to note that the composer’s grand daughter has added information in the comments section. Also, some additional information has been provided again by Arunkumar ji (comment no. 15) on the Songs-of-Yore blog post on ‘The Best Songs of 1942‘.

On looking for more information about the composer on the net, I found a very interesting FB post which provides a brief biographical sketch and details the many films for which he composed music.

Our blog has a few films and songs covered under his compositions. I request interested readers to visit the ‘List of Songs – Movie Wise‘ section.

For today’s post, I take back readers to my post for the song “Ae Dil Tu Kahin Le Chal” from the film ‘Shole’ (1953) – Mukesh and his Co-Singers – 5.  This post featured the versatile Shamshad Begum duets with Mukesh and is one of my favourite posts.

Two relatively unknown and unheard songs were introduced in the table in which 29 soulful songs of the duo were enlisted. One from ‘Shole’ (1953) was featured in the post itself which leaves us with S. No 02 in the table, featuring a song from ‘Shatranj’ (1946). This is the last duet of the combo and dates back to 1946.

In my post, I have written the names of the composers as Madhav Lal and Baldev Nayak for this particular unposted duet from Shatranj (1946).

I don’t remember from where I picked up these names and especially the spelling of the composer. However, I shall go by the details provided in latest edition of MGK by Shri Harish Raghuvanshi. There is only one name provided for the composer and that is of Madholal Damodar Master. I see Baldev Nayak’s name associated with a few more songs of Madholal Damodar Master and request knowledge readers to throw more light on this matter. The lyrics are from the pen of GS Madhup.

I was under the impression that this is the only song of Mukesh for the composer, but MGK-II has provided an additional information that the NFS enlisted in the table below was also composed by Madholal Damodar Master.

I shall take up the NFS in the next post and request readers to provide me more details, complete list of films scored by Madholal Damodar Master or frequent singers and lyricists that he took for his compositions.

There is little doubt that his works require more coverage, recognition and appreciation.

Coming to the duet itself, it was a surprise discovery traced by our Sudhir ji when I was doing the post on Shamshad Begum and Mukesh’s duets. He had shared the audio of the song from his archives for my “listening pleasure” at that time. I now take the opportunity of bringing it forth to the pleasure of all readers.

About the film. ‘Shatranj’ of 1946 was directed by GS Poddar and Vaju Kotak, for the banner Acharya Art Productions, Bombay. The list of actors as per Geet Kosh is Krishna Kant, Leela Chitnis, Mitra, Sunetra, Master Amritlal, Padma Bannerji, Nand Kishore, Leela Pandey and others. Looking at the list of actors, it is a very good possibility that this song is picturized on Krishna Kant and Leela Chitnis. That would be a wow – 1946, and Mukesh giving playback for Krishna Kant. We are all familiar with Krishna Kant in many character roles in later films. In this film, he is the hero and is wooing Leela Chitnis. Oh how I wish the video of this film was available.

The film has seven songs as per Geet Kosh listings. This is the first song of this film to be showcased on our blog – ‘Shatranj’ of 1946 makes its debut today.

So, here is one of the oldest songs of Mukesh from 1946 that remained un-posted till date. It is probably his last duet with Shamshad Begum to be covered on the blog.

I thank our Sudhir ji and present herewith, two great voices which are nearly 8 decades old.

[Editor’s Note: In the available edition of the Geet Kosh volume II (1941-50), the details of singers and music director of this film are not listed. And this song is also not listed in the first edition of the Mukesh Geet Kosh. These details came to light much later once the physical gramophone records of this film surfaced in public domain. I think it was Girdharilal ji of Jodhpur who first made these recordings available, and confirmed the names of the music director and the singers.]
