#the Decade of Fourties – 1941 – 1950 #

Regulars on the blog are well aware that I have been sharing songs sung by Sulochana Kadam for a long time. Our blog statistics page does not mention the total number of songs sung by her. I guess that the correct figure is yet to be confirmed. However we have so far covered more than one hundred songs sung by her. I have noted that coverage of her song has slowed down after her century of songs was reached in the blog.

I am on the look out for songs sung by her that are not yet covered on this blog. Today I came across this song which was for long considered as a lost song. However, a music lover has uploaded this song on internet. It is from the movie ‘Krishna Sudaama-1947’.

#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #

Today’s song is from the year 1947. I had once taken up the task of sharing songs from this year. The undiscovered musical treasures from this year fascinate me because of the importance of this year when India achieved its freedom. Our inhouse encylopeadia Shree Arunkumar jee has informed us repeatedly that this year held the record for maximum Hindi movies released till that time. This information is another reason why I became interested in trying to find all the available songs from movies of 1947 that are not yet represented in the blog. In the process, I hope to gather more information about the movies and songs of 1947.

Today’s song is from a Costume imaginary film Gul Bakawali-1947.

The year 1947 is a reminder not only for the Independence of India, but also for the upheaval that took place in the film industry that time. More than in any other industry in India, Muslims were plentiful, working in different sections and departments of the Hindi film industry. Majority of them migrated to the newly formed Muslim Nation of Pakistan. This did create a lot of disturbance in the film industry. Right from the beginning of 1947, there were signs that soon the British would leave India – after dividing it into two Nations, India and Pakistan. When the month and date became known for the Partition, there was a great hurry among the filmmakers to complete their projects on hand and in process, compromising many factors like quality of the film, number of songs and such other things.
