Today’s song is from an imaginary (Kalpanik) film – Hatimtai ki Beti-1955.

The film was produced and directed by Nanubhai Vakil for his own banner Vakil productions, Bombay. Music was by A.R.Qureshi, assisted ably by the yesteryear’s composer, Damodar Sharma. Sharma was one of the well known Music Directors of the early era films. Among the old era MDs, Damodar Sharma was different, in the sense that his songs were always unlike those of his contemporaries. When you hear his songs, you will notice that difference. From 1934 to 1948, he gave music to just 41 films. All his films were C grade films made by Paramount, Liberty, Ramnik Productions, Mohan Pictures and others. After 1948, he stopped getting films, so he worked as assistant to MD A.R.Qureshi till 1964.

The cast of the film included Chitra, Mahipal, Daljit, Krishnakumari, Kamal, Kammo, Heera Sawant, Helen, Ruhi, Tun Tun, Naaz,Maruti, Sunder, Kesari, W.M.Khan and others. The guest artistes were Heeralal, Ram Singh, Al Nasir etc. Lyricists were Shevan Rizvi and Kaifi Azmi.

Today’s song is from a Costume film – Nagma E sahra aka The song of Desert- 1945.

The film was produced and directed by Master Bhagwan, for his own banner, Jagriti Pictures, Bombay. In those days the name of Master Bhagwan was well known for making C grade films for the lovers of stunt and action films. He had come up the hard way in this field. We know Bhagwan as a bulky comedian, but can you believe that Bhagwan had a great muscular body in the early days of his career ? He was not much educated, but he was not illiterate. He could not speak English like others, but he used to see English films regularly to get new ideas for his stunt films.

Today’s song is from a costume film Yahudi ki Ladki-1957. The film was produced and directed by S.D.Narang for New oriental Pictures, Bombay. Music was by Hemant Kumar, ably assisted by Ravi, who had already started giving music to films independently since film Vachan-1955. The Lyricist was S.H.Bihari. The film cast included Madhubala, Pradeep Kumar, Gajanan Jahagirdar, Heeralal, Sunder, S.D.Narang, Smriti Biswas, Krishnakant, Helen and many others.

When Talkie films started, films made in Bombay had two major influences. One influence was films made from Calcutta ( in my opinion,every Hindi film coming from Calcutta was like watching a Bangla film with Hindi dialogues,using Bookish Hindi language) and the second influence was that of the Parsee Theatre stories. Parsee Theatre was very active from 1850 to 1930s. With their costumes, sets,stories and dialogues they influenced theatres of all languages of India. Plays were in Gujarati,Hindi,Urdu and English, but its impact was widespread. The Parsee Theatre dramas spread from Bombay to Karachi, Lahore, Dacca, Lucknow, Aligadh, Meerut, Delhi, Calcutta, Jodhpur and Hyderabad. The active theatres lasted till the 40s, but then most big drama companies started film companies like Imperial, Minerva,Wadia and Madan from Calcutta. They borrowed stories from Parsee Shahnama, Arabian Nights, Mahabharat, Shakespeare etc. They employed paid drama writers.

#the Decade of Fifties – 1951 – 1960 #

The song in this post is from the movie ‘Bandhan-1956’. I do not remember to have listened to the songs from this movie earlier or maybe I have forgotten them. The video of this movie is now available on internet which I guess was not the case years back when other songs from this movie were posted on the blog. I have not watched this movie so far, so can’t say much about this movie. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 05.11.1956.

‘Bandhan-1956’ was directed by Hem Chander for ‘Sarkar Productions, Calcutta’. It was produced by D.K. Sarkar. The cast of this movie has Meena Kumari, Pradeep Kumar, Shashikala, Motilal, Achala Sachdev, David, Kammo, Natwar, Nana Palsikar, Meenu, Bhupendra Kapoor, Leela Mishra, Shaikh, Sarita Devi, Shivjee Bhai, Pt Tulee, Ranu Mukherjee, Asit Sen, Zahar Ganguly and others. Music for this movie was composed by Hemant Kumar. This movie has seven songs which were all written by lyricist Rajinder Krishan. The playback singers for the songs of this movie were Hemant Kumar, Bela Mukherjee, Lata Mangeshkar, and Asha Bhonsle. So far three songs from this movie have already been posted on this blog.

Hullo Atuldom

Back after a year of inactivity. My last post was on 27th December 2025. Since then the calendar has changed and we are into 2026- a New Year. Even if the gap has been of only a few days, it feels like I have been away forever- feels like an Year of Inactivity. 🙂

“Inspector” (1956) was a film that had 9 songs with the song ‘dil chhed koi aisa naghma’ having two versions – in Hemant Kumar’s & Lata Mangeshkar’s voices. The following songs of the film are present on the blog:-
