“But Taraash” (1947), forgotten movie by now had an interesting history behind it.
Here is what Mr Arunkumar Deshmukh, our beloved inhouse encyclopaedia has to say about this movie:
The story and history of film BUTT TARASH is very interesting. Here it is……
Butt Tarash and Khana Badosh were being made in Lahore in early 1947. Butt Tarash had Pran, Manorama, Suresh, Irshad and Khana Badosh had Pran, Manorama, Kalawati and Ajmal. Both films were directed by Afzal Jahangir and Ghulam Haider was Music Director for both films.When partition took place all activities of films in Lahore stopped.
Most Hindu actors etc had shifted to India and Muslim actors to Pakistan.
Just after the partition, Pran, Manorama, Nasir Khan, Suresh, Begum Para, Himalayawala, Shahnawaz, Najmul Hussain, Sadiq Ali(Minerva king), Ghouri, Charlie, Luddan, Ghulam Mohammed etc went back to Lahore, for settlement of dues, property etc.
After observing the poor conditions and dark future of Lahore and Pakistan film industry, Pran, Manorama, Suresh, Begum Para and Nasir Khan returned to India. But before returning, Nasir Khan acted in Pakistan’s First film Teri Yaad as a hero, Suresh completed Shahida and Do Kinarey and Pran and Manorama completed both their films, viz Butt Tarash and Khana Badosh.
Butt Tarash was not released in Lahore but is listed as an Indian film, and there was no trace as to what happened to Khana Badosh.
Both these films’ names do appear in the Golden Jubilee List of Pakistani Films, published in 1986, as Pakistani films. But the prints of these films are untraceable anywhere.
Since all the 11 songs of Butt tarash were recorded by Ghulam Hyder in India, before going to Pakistan, these records are available here but no records of Khana Badosh-whose songs were recorded in Lahore, are available there.
The son of director Afzal Jahangir is Mehmood Jehangir, who is a Pakistani film director of repute.
Two song from “But Taraash” (1947) have been discussed in the past. Here is the third song from this movie. This song is sung by G M Durrani. Ghulam Haider is the music director.
No information seems to be available about the lyricist of this song. I request our knowledgeable readers to tell us about the lyricist of this song.
Lyrics of this song were sent to me by Avinash Scrapwala.

Lyrics(Provided by Avinash Scrapwala)
Ab kaun hai ae
ab kaun hai
Is toote huye dil ka sahaara
ab kaun hai
Is toote huye dil ka sahaara aa
tu hi ye bataa kya kare
taqdeer ka maara aa
tu hi ye bataa kya kare
taqdeer ka maara
ab kaun hai is toote huye dil ka sahaara
ummeed ye kehti hai
ke jeena hai jiye ja aa
ummeed ye kehti hai
ke jeena hai jiye ja aa
Lekin tere gham karte hain
marne ka ishaara aa
tu hi ye bataa kya kare
taqdeer ka maara
ab kaun hai
Is toote huye dil ka sahaara
taqdeer ne kyun mujhse tumhe
chheen liya hai ae
taqdeer ne kyun mujhse tumhe
chheen liya hai
ik tum hi to thhe
meri mohabbat ka sahaara aa
tu hi ye bataa
kya kare taqdeer ka maara aa
tu hi ye
bataa kya kare taqdeer ka maara aa
ab kaun hai
is toote huye dil ka sahaara
