“Aaina”(1944) was directed by S M Yusuf for D R D Productions. This movie had Trilok Kapoor, Husn Bano, Kaushalya, Yakub, Gope, Yashodhara Katju, Rajkumari Shukla, Sulochana Chatterji, Mirza Musharraf, Leela Mishra, Sayyad Ahmad, Bibi, Sultan Bawa etc in it.
The movie had eight songs in it that were composed by two music directors. HFGK mentions three songs as composed by Fareh Ali Khan and two songs as composed by Gulshan Soofi. Music directors for three remaining songs are not known.
Two songs (both composed by Fateh Ali Khan) have been covered in the past.
Here is another song from “Aaina”(1944). This song has two versions. One version is sung by Kalyani and other by Shama. sung by Zohrabai Ambalewaali and Gope. Pt Phani is the lyricist. This song was composed by Gulshan Soofi.
Only one version of the song (sung by Kalyani) appears to be available though one can find youtube links passing on the same voice as that of Kalyani as well as Shama in different links. 🙂
I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the picturisation of this song.
PS-Now, Mr Sadanand Kamath, our own inhouse old song expert, has made available the Shama version of this song. One can notice that her voice is clearly distinct from that of Kalyani Bai. Moreover, her version of the song has one stanza less than in the Kalyani Bai version.
With this song, Shama makes her debut as a playback singer in the blog.

Lyrics

Kalyani Bai version
——————————–
misl-e-khayal aaye the
aa kar chale gaye ae ae
duniya humaare gham ki basa kar chale gaye
phoolon ki aas jin se lagaaye huye thhe hum
phoolon ki aas jin se lagaaye huye thhe hum
kaante wo raaste mein
bichha kar chale gaye ae ae
misl-e-khayaal aaye thhe
aa kar chale gaye
aayi na thhi humaare chaman mein bahaar abhi
aayi na thhi humaare chaman mein bahaar abhi
wo aag aashiyaan mein laga kar chale gaye ae
misl-e-khayaal aaye thhe aa kar chale gaye
bhoole se bhi kabhi na jinhen hum bhula sake
bhoole se bhi kabhi na jinhen hum bhula sake
dil se humen wo apne bhula kar chale gaye ae
misl-e-khayaal aaye thhe aa kar chale gaye ae
duniya humaare gham ki basa kar chale gaye

Shyama Bai actually sang in Sunehra Baal 1938, Confluence 1941, Amrita 1941, Aaina 1944, Prabhu Ka Ghar 1945, Parshuram 1947, Gharana 1949, and Gulnar 1950. Shyama Bai is not to be confused with the famous actress Shyama, and the lesser known singer Shyama Sharma.

Atul ji,
Please upload video of Kalyani Bai version of the ghazal.
I agree that on YT Kalyani Bai, version of the song has been uploaded as that of Shama. I have sent you by e-mail, mp3 clip of Shama version of the ghazal.
There is also some confusion whether this ghazal was written by Pt. Phani or Fani Badayuni. Kamalakar Pasupuleti .in his book ‘ Music and Arts of Hyderabad Deccan’ has mentioned that this ghazal was written by Faani Badayuni who was a regular visitor to his grand father’s house in Hyderabad. This ghazal as well as other ghazals of Faani Badayuni used to be played on Deccan Radio which were mostly composed by Rauf Osmania. He has also stated that his ghazal was used in the film ‘Aaina’ (1944).
My take on the authorship of this ghazal is that it is quite possible that the ‘matla’ of the ghazal may have been taken from Faani Badayuni’s ghazal and rest of part of the ghazal may have written by Pt. Phani. For me, the ghazal as a whole appears more as filmy ghazal than the literary one in terms of language
Incidentally, I had sent an article on Faani Badayuni in Feb.2018 which is yet to be posted on the Blog..

As far as I know the singer’s name is not शमा.
It is Shyama or Shyamabai ( श्यामा / श्यामाबाई )
She was a Maharashtrian Muslin singer from Kolhapur.
She sang in Film Aaina-44,Tilasmi Duniya-46, Parshuram-47 and Gulnar-50.
She migrated to Pakistan after this.
