Today’s song is the last and final song from the social film ‘Khoj’ (1953). With this song the film has all songs covered and it is Yippeee’d !

The film was made by Dogra films, Bombay, a banner owned by the producer of this film CR Dogra. The film was directed by Balwant Bhatt, elder brother of another director Nanabhai Bhatt. Music was by Nisar Bazmi who migrated to Pakistan and became a big name there. The cast of the film was Shammi, Mahipal, Satish, Kammo, Rajan Kapoor, Omkar Devaskar, Helen (Richardson), Rajni and many others.

Today’s song is one of the better songs of the film, but due to some dispute, it was removed from the film after  6 months of  release. A record (No. N-50555) was also issued and the song is mentioned in  HFGK.

The story of the film was woven around the theme of look-alikes. This is one of the most popular and successful themes of Hindi films and many such films became hits. The first double role with look-alikes in a talkie film was ‘Awara Shehzada’ (1933) (In Marathi this film was titled ‘Ghatkecha Raja’), with  Shahu Modak in the lead role. The look alike stories give birth to double roles in films. Such films are best suited for crime stories or comedy films. Films like ‘Don’ and ‘Ram Aur Shyam’ are examples. Not only males but even female double roles like in ‘Seeta Aur Geeta’ became popular. The first female look-alike theme based talkie film was ‘Muqabla’ (1942), in which Fearless Nadia did the double role.

Here is a statistics collected from the Internet about Double roles….

1. The first ever double role was in the silent film, ‘Lanka Dahan’ (1917), in which actor Anna Salunkhe did the roles of both Ram and Seeta !

2. The first double role in a talkie film was done by Shahu Modak in the film,’Awara Shahzada’ (1933). The film was based on Hollywood film ‘The Prince and the Pauper’ (1929).

3. From 1931 to 2014, there were 318 films having double or multiple roles.

4. From 1957 to 2014 there was at least one film every year, having double roles.

5. In the decade of the 90s. maximum-81 films had double roles.

6. In 1974 , maximum films-12 came with double roles.

7. maximum double role films are done by 
Amitabh Bachhan – 15
Kader khan-14 (from 1988 to 1995, one double role film every year)
Rajesh Khanna-11
Mithun Chakravarty-11
Dharmendra-10
Govinda-10…..
There are many other actors in the list.

8. In the film ‘Trikaal’ (1985), 5 actors had double roles.

The story of the film was…..

It was a miracle of nature that two young men – Suraj and Ranbir, not having any blood relation, were look-alikes. Suraj was a rich and noble man, whereas Ranbir was a well known, ‘wanted’ dacoit. After knowing this similarity, Ranbir plans to take advantage of this.

Suraj loves a simple girl Kusum and is engaged to her. Ranbir sends his moll Mohini to lure Suraj. As expected Suraj falls prey to her and marries her. The very next day, Suraj is arrested by police on suspicion that he is Ranbir. Now all his wealth is in the hands of Ranbir. Next day, Suraj escapes from jail and goes to Kusum, who tries to save him and hide him. However the goons of Ranbir trace him and take him to their hideout. Ranbir decides to kill him now.

Meanwhile Mohini repents and tells everything to the police before she is killed by Ranbir. However the police reach his hideout, kill Ranbir in the encounter, find and save Suraj. Now Suraj and Kusum get united and all is well.

Actress Shammi, popularly known as Shammi Auntie, was the heroine in this film. It is difficult to believe, but she was the heroine in a few films in her early career. Such unexpected matters do happen in Hindi Films. Can you believe that another auntie/grandmother Deena Pathak was also heroine in early films and that she sang 2 songs also in the film ‘Paraya Dhan’ (1943) ?

Nargis Rabadi (24 April 1929 – 6 March 2018), better known by her stage name Shammi, was a Parsi  actress who appeared in over two hundred Hindi films. Shammi remained a sought-after actress with filmmakers when it came to goofy and comic roles, especially in the period 1949–1969 and later from 1980–2002. Her famous films as supporting actress included ‘Dil Apna Aur Preet Parai’, ‘Half Ticket’, ‘Halaku’, ‘Samaj Ko Badal Dalo’, ‘Khuda Gawah’, ‘Coolie No. 1’, ‘Gopi Kishan’ and ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’ and films with Rajesh Khanna like ‘The Train’, ‘Aanchal’, ‘Kudrat’, ‘Red Rose’, ‘Awara Baap’ and ‘Swarg’. She had been a leading actress playing main female lead or second female lead in Hindi films between 1949 and 1955 as well. Later, from 1986 till 1998, she appeared in many popular television serials such as ‘Dekh Bhai Dekh’, ‘Zabaan Sambhal Ke’, ‘Shriman Shrimati’, ‘Kabhi Yeh Kabhi Woh’ and ‘Filmi Chakkar’. Shammi was married to film producer and director Sultan Ahmed for seven years, before they were divorced. Shammi was the younger sister of fashion designer Mani Rabadi.

She was born on 24-4-1929 in Bombay. Her father was a priest in an agyari (Parsi fire temple) and died when she was around three years old. After her father’s death, her mother used to cook food at all the religious functions organized by the Parsi community to earn money. Rabadi had an elder sister Mani Rabadi, who was a fashion designer and worked extensively with many actresses as their dress designer in Hindi films between 1967 and 1994. Her mother’s younger sister lived with her. They stayed in Tata Blocks in Parel, South Mumbai in 1930–47 period. Her sister joined Johnson and Johnson as a secretary after completing her secondary school education.

In 1942, Johnson and Johnson manufactured tablets and Rabadi was employed in the packing department. Her job was to collect the tablets that were not sealed in the tablet case, and had fallen off from the machine. She had to put them into big bottles which would go to hospitals for free distribution to patients. She was paid Rs 100 per month for doing this job.

She got into films by chance. A family friend Chinnu Mama was working with filmmaker Mehboob Khan. Chinnu was very friendly with actor and producer Sheikh Mukhtar. At that time, Mukhtar was looking for an actress for the second lead, in a film he was to start with Begum Para as the main female lead. Chinnu Mama asked Nargis whether she would like to join films and asked her to meet Sheikh Mukhtar in the studios the next day. Mukhtar was concerned about her Hindi speaking skills as she was a Parsi. Nargis immediately told a worried Sheikh that she would be talking with him in Hindi itself, and that he should point out any flaw if he was able to find any. Sheikh Mukhtar was quite shocked, but was impressed. The next day, she was called to Mahalaxmi studios for her screen test for a film. She was advised by director Tara Harish to change her name to ‘Shammi’ as there was another actress named Nargis in the industry. Her monthly salary was Rs 500. She was asked to sign a three-year contract with a condition that she couldn’t work outside without their permission. She was just 18 when she signed her first film, ‘Ustad Pedro’, in January 1949. ‘Ustad Pedro’ had Sheikh Mukhtar opposite Begum Para and Mukri as the comedian and it was directed by Tara Harish and this film was a hit at the box office in 1949.

She had to attend the studio every day and practice acting even when she had no shoot. Shammi had to read dialogues of other films and Harish, the film’s director, taught her a lot of things since he was an actor himself. Harish was directing another film with Mukesh in the lead as the hero, called ‘Malhar’. Shammi was given the main lead in that film. Since the director was the same, Shammi was allowed to work outside the Sheikh Mukthar banner. She got good reviews for ‘Malhar’. The music of ‘Malhar’ was a super-hit and ‘Malhar’ made Shammi a famous star. Shammi was financially stable now, so they shifted to Bandra. During the shooting of ‘Malhar’, she met Nargis (later known as Nargis Dutt) through Jaddan Bai, who was the mother of Nargis. They became good friends. After that meeting, Nargis would frequently call Shammi to her house in Marine Drive. Nargis was her best friend and later, because of their friendship she got a supporting role in the film ‘Miss India’. She quoted in an interview “Nargis was the first actor to be paid Rs 1 lakh; even Dilip Kumar did not get that kind of money then. It was the talk of the industry. Actors like me who did supporting roles would get anything around Rs 10,000 to Rs 15,000.”

Her third film was with Dilip Kumar and Madhubala, called ‘Sangdil’. It was released late in 1952 and was only a moderate success. Since ‘Sangdil’ was unpopular with the audience, she did not get work for seven months. Shammi used to play the main lead or second lead in films from 1949 to 1952, but after ‘Sangdil’, she started taking whatever work came to her and took a few films with vamp roles. She quoted in an interview: “Many people scolded me when I did that but I was clear in my mind that I had to work. Sitting at home would not help me since I was the breadwinner of the family.” She got roles as the leading heroine opposite heroes such as Mahipal, Manhar Desai and Karan Dewan. After the release of K. Asif’s hit film ‘Musafirkhana’, she was flooded with similar roles. Her role opposite comedian Johnny Walker was appreciated in this film.

Some of her successful movies as supporting actress in this were ‘Ilzam’ (1954), ‘Pehli Jhalak’ (1955), ‘Bandish’ (1955), ‘Azaad’ (1955), ‘Halaku’ (1956), ‘Son of Sinbad’ (1955), ‘Raj Tilak’ (1958), ‘Khazanchi’ (1958), ‘Ghar Sansar’ (1958), ‘Aakhri Dao’ (1958), ‘Kangan’ (1959), ‘Bhai-Bahen’ (1959) and ‘Dil Apna Aur Preet Parai’ (1960). The rest of her films released from 1952 to 1960 were deemed as commercial failures. In the period 1962 to 1970, her comedy and vamp roles made an impact in successful films such as ‘Half Ticket’, ‘Ishaara’, ;Jab Jab Phool Khile’, ‘Preet Na Jane Reet’, ‘Aamne Saamne’, ‘Upkar’, ’Ittefaq’, ‘Saajan’, ‘Doli’,’Raja Saab’ and ‘The Train’.

Shammi became pregnant two times, but both times she miscarried, and therefore she and Sultan Ahmed did not have any children. This had an adverse effect on their marriage, which lasted for seven years. During that period, the couple had bought a house and Sultan wanted to put the house in her name, but Shammi was of the opinion that since her sister-in-law was not doing anything, Ahmed should put the house in his sister’s name. Ahmed’s brother in law’s family resided with them. Sultan’s brother’s wife was uneducated, so Shammi took care of the child. Shammi admitted the child to a school in Shimla. Due to some differences, she broke up with her husband in 1980. She walked out of the house without any cash in hand, and left without her car too. She had the old house where she stayed with her mother in Bandra, so she shifted there. Nargis Dutt was upset when Shammi separated from her husband. She helped Shammi get a role in ‘The Burning Train’ within 8 days after Shammi had left her house. Her friend Rajesh Khanna helped her get small roles in films with him in the lead from 1980 such as ‘Red Rose’, ‘Aanchal’, ‘Kudrat’, ‘Awara Baap’ and ‘Swarg’. These films again got her noticed as a supporting actress and hence revived her career.

To help her recover from the losses, Rajesh Khanna, who was producing television series then, helped Shammi get a few shows to produce on Doordarshan. She was getting paid well for her roles in the films and in television serials and she started saving money. From her very first movie, she never went asking for work—the work came to her through close friends. Her performances in serials such as ‘Dekh Bhai Dekh’, ‘Zabaan Sambhal Ke’, ‘Shriman Shrimati’, ‘Kabhi Yeh Kabhi Woh’ and ‘Filmi Chakkar’ were appreciated. She was very much in demand from 1990 to 2000, appearing in many successful films such as ‘Coolie No 1’, ‘Hum’, ‘Mardon Wali Baat’, ‘Gurudev’, ‘Gopi Kishan’, ‘Hum Saath-Saath Hain’ and ‘Imtihaan’. Her portrayal of the role of a drug addict in Mahesh Bhatt’s ‘Lahu Ke Do Rang’ had stunned the audience. Movie offers, however, stopped coming to her after 2002 since she was aging. She was rarely approached for roles from 2008 to 2011. In all, Shammi acted in 222 films, directed 1 film ‘Pighalta Aasman’ (1987), and sang 2 songs in 2 films.

She made a comeback with ‘Shirin Farhad Ki Toh Nikal Padi’ in 2013; as Bela Sehgal, the director, wanted her to do it because it was the role of a Parsi woman. She died in her sleep on 6 March 2018, from natural causes at the age of 88.

Here is the last and final song from the film ‘Khoj’. Now all songs from this film are covered on this blog, and the film is now Yippeee’d ! It is sung by Shamshad Begum and chorus. Enjoy….

Blog Day :6574Post No. :20462

Today’s song is from a ‘un-released’ movie from the decade of 1970s. According to the link of this song the year for this movie is mentioned as 1969 and from what the song is all about, I guess this year should be correct for this movie and this song. The title of this movie is ‘Chautha Paalnaa’.

The information about this movie is given in HFGK Vol-V (1971-1980). It only mentions about the banner for this movie which is ‘Education & Social Reform’. The list of the songs has only one song which we are discussing here today. Only one song title is mentioned on this movie-page leaving space indicating possibility of more songs from this movie. The name of the lyricist for is mentioned as Balkavi Bairagi and music composer as SN Tripathi.

From the title of this movie, one can easily guess what the film must be all about. It was in those years of the seventies when India was pushing its family planning program vigorously. I was born in the year 1968. I have vague memories of the hoardings in hospitals and around, about the red triangle or laal trikon (inverted) and the various advertisements talking about “small family is a happy family” or “bachche do yaa teen achchhe” when I was growing. This song seems to be the part of these family planning programs or social awareness (or propaganda?). The lyricist of the today’s song is Balkavi Bairagi who is a known for his affiliations with the Congress Party which was in power in India then.

The song seems to be from the period of end-sixties. The lady singing this song is advising her ‘bhabhi’ that ‘chautha palnaa mat baandh angana’ which means it is still allowing to bear three children minimum. So this movie must be planned around the same period or few years or maybe a decade earlier to push the family planning program. There were also animated short films and various media advertisements too in print media and radio in those years. I am not remembering them all and hence not mentioning them here, though they are available on internet if one tries to search for them.

The issue of population growth might sound irrelevant to talk about today, as nobody (and I mean the government and responsible citizens too), likes to discuss this issue now. But if one gives serious thought to the social ills that have already spread in our society and the social issues and crimes happening around in our society one will realize how the issue of population control needs to be addressed on war footing basis by enforcing laws immediately and strictly. The changing climatic conditions, the natural resources this much population will require, and there depletion proportionate to the ever-increasing population is another important issue if one likes to take it into account and study this issue.

In 2023 our country became the most populated country in the world. It was around April 2023. While some will take pride in what our country has achieved. But coming to think of it that India was the first country in the world to start family planning programs, it will make us ashamed of what we have achieved (?) or where we have reached so far.

Moreover, this subject is never taught in our school curricula, so people are never educated on this subject in our country any more.

If I am correct, I guess that it was the decade of the 1970s only, when there was a concentrated effort on this subject of family planning. (Seniors and knowledgeable readers might be able to throw more light on this subject).

But, now after almost 50-60 years the situation has changed so much that instead of going for family planning some of our states are going to reward for increasing the population and declaring incentives for population growth. And very recently one news channel had mentioned about the falling fertility rate in India and about the changing demography in our country. The study also throws light on how the dropping fertility rate will reduce the young population in our country in the coming future.

Here is a table (with the extracted text) from the ‘Wikipedia’ page which gives details of our census by decade and showing the percentage wise population growth rate where one can notice that the years from 1961 to 2001 had above twenty percent growth of population during those decadal years. It is only in the decade of 2011 or 2001-2010 that population growth rate had a decline after the decade of sixties onwards. (I hope this is near to accuracy and realistic).

India’s population has grown from approximately 361 million in 1951 to over 1.47 billion in 2026. While the population continues to increase, the rate of decadal growth has been steadily declining since the 1981 Census, reflecting a successful demographic transition towards lower fertility rates. The official Census of India tracks population figures every ten years. The decadal census data from 1901 to 2011 outlines this historical trajectory:

20111,210,854,977+17.64%

Current Context & Recent Projections (2021-2026)

Due to disruptions, most notably the deferment of the 2021 Census, official decadal government statistics are currently sourced through projections. According to estimates from agencies like the Worldometer India Population Tracker, the population crossed the 1.47 billion mark by 2026. The UN and CEIC Data project continued but slowing growth, with the decadal growth trajectory expected to further flatten over the coming decades.

As mentioned above the lyricist for the today’s song is Balkavi Bairagi. He was born as Nand Ramdas Bairagi on 10th February, 1931. He was a prominent Hindi poet and film lyricist and a politician too. He was instrumental in promoting the maalwi language, a dialect spoken in the Maalwa region of Madhya Pradesh. He gave a stage to this dialect and also brought it in Hindi poetry scenario. He was popularly known as ‘Rashtrakavi’ among several who have been hailed with the same title. He passed away on 13th May, 2018. He represented Madhya Pradesh as a member of the higher house in Parliament i.e. Rajya Sabha from 1998 to 2004.

The composer for the today’s song is SN Tripathi who has given this intriguing composition which keeps growing on one and one craves listening to it more and more. Here is a brief about SN Tripathi as mentioned by our in-house encyclopedia Shri Arunkumar ji in one of his posts. He had given a detailed biographical sketch of . Tripathi in his post. I have extracted a brief from his post here.

In the 50’s decade, SN Tripathi, music director was a multi-faceted artiste. He was an actor, composer, director and a singer too. He had acted in 83 films, sang 13 songs in 7 films, directed 18 films and gave music to 111 films, composing 863 songs in all. He was the MD in all the 18 films, which he had directed, from ‘Ram Hanuman Yuddh’ (1957) to ‘Sant Gyaneshwar’ (1981). By the 50s, mythological films were replaced by historical and period films. SN Tripathi was in great demand. He gave soulful music in several films.

He was an actor, singer, composer, story and screenplay writer and filmmaker. He was a man of many parts and talents. Many creative artistes have achieved greatness and immortality in the Indian film industry but only a few have displayed the range of versatility that SN Tripathi did with such consummate ease. His main field of endeavor were the much-neglected, much scorned mythological films to which he brought an aura of credibility thanks to his scholarship and painstaking research. Of course, much more would be required before SN Tripathi’s immense contribution to the Indian film industry can be assessed properly. Shri Nath Tripathi was born in a Brahmin family of Kashi (Benaras, U.P.) on 14th March 1913. SN Tripathi died on March 28, 1988 at the age of 66.

The singer of the today’s song is Asha Bhonsle. And she has sung it with such passion, and naturally being a female and the plight of the Indian women in those days seem to have reflected in her singing and in her voice. It is a nice hummable song.

After listening to this song carefully, some questions come to my inquisitive (?)  mind

We often treat our Hindi cinema as the mirror of our society and so the lyrics of this song and overall intention and feelings behind this song also bring some questions about our society and prevailing social conditions then …

We normally consider India as  a patriarchal society then why the responsibility is passed to the females only? In this song the lady singing is very intelligently passing on the responsibility to prevent the ‘fourth child’ on the woman only i.e. her bhabhi.

She mentions her brother as deewana, pagla, and she further adds that he is not even sayaana and she dares to ask ‘who says he is sayaana?

So, were the girls in those days still more responsible than men, and ahead of them – in the decades when there were no such slogans like “beti padhaao or beti bachaao“? The girls were still ahead of boys as they have been in the recent years or decades?

The lyrics also throws light upon the plight of the common Indian woman in that period as to how they have to suffer carrying pregnancies and keep producing more and more children. May be our country was not educated to that level of using birth prevention and birth control methods or the population then was not aware of where they were heading to?

The song also has a reference to China whose population was more than us. The protagonists says

ek do ya zyaada se zyaada bhabhi teen
ho kaahe basaati hai angana mein cheen?

That was in 1970s and today we have already overtaken China in terms of the highest populated country in the world…

Think, ponder and enjoy the song. Gen Z is the buzzword nowadays in all topics related to our social life and they are the future of this country who needs to decide which way and how to go? We might not be there to see how it has taken shape finally
And the results so far

Today’s song is from a Costume film ‘Awaara Shahzadi’ (1956).

1956 was the Silver Jubilee year of Indian Talkie Films. This year, the most successful films were entertainers. There were of course some films carrying social messages. One of them was ‘Jaagte Raho’ (‘Ek Din Ratre’ in Bangla), which tried to bring out the upper middle class hypocrisy in a metro city like Bombay. Initially, the film did not make any ripples, but after it won international awards, it became very popular. (People of other nations have to tell us that our film is good !). A social message, excellent music and solid story – the hallmarks of an RK film were all there in it.

Today’s song is from the film Gaon-1947.

After the II World War was over, it was clear that the British were unable to rule India anymore, due to the war effects on their own country – which was their first priority to mend and develop now. Most Indians felt that the British were leaving India because of Gandhi and Nehru. The respect for these two affected the film industry too. Films on what Gandhi taught about villages and village life and farmers were made. Film gaon-1947 was also one of these films, which tried to emphasize that life in the villages was better than cities and the Indian culture can thrive only in villages.After the exit of Gandhi, Nehru’s philosophy was followed in the films of post 1948 and the decade of 1950’s. Major producer- directors like Mehboob Khan and Bimal Roy, for example,were true followers of Nehru’s Socialist Philosophy, which prompted them to make films like Mother India and Naya Daur etc. Lets not go into discussing politics, post independence. This is not a platform for that.
