(A tribute to Bhimsen Joshi)
Today 24th January’2023 is the twelfth ‘Remembrance Anniversary’ of great vocalist Pandit Bhimsen Joshi.
He was born on 04th February’1922 and passed away on 24th January’2011.
As a tribute to Bhimsen Joshi I am presenting a song from the 1959 Un-released movie ‘Pativrataa’.
Music for this movie was composed by famous music director of Marathi films Ram Kadam.
I was longing to introduce this movie on the blog, though un-released movie it is, because this the fourth and final movie where music director Ram Kadam composed music for Hindi films other than the movies, ‘Raaste Aur Manzil-1968’, ‘Sant Tulsidas-1972’ and ‘Pinjra-1973’(already represented on the blog).
HFGK Vol-III (1951-1960) does not mention any details for this movie ‘Pativrataa’ except listing of two songs from this movie in ‘unreleased movies’ section, name of the music director, singers, and production company.
However, since this movie was also made in Marathi (year 1959) I guess the same cast was there in the Hindi movie. I am giving details below herewith of this movie in Marathi.
‘Pativrataa’ was directed by Datta Dharmadhikari for ‘Alhad Chitra’.
Datta Dharmadhikari was also the producer of this movie.
‘Patrivrataa-1959’ (In Marathi) had Sulochana, Chandrakant, Jayshree Gadkar, Suryakant, Vivek, Indirabai Chitnis, Neelam, Damu Anna Malwankar, Vasant Shinde and others.
Raja Nene, Adhik Shirodkar, had guest appearances in this movie. And the movie also had child artistes Amrendra, Chhaya and Pratibha.
Editing of this movie was done by Anand Dharmadhikari.
Bhimsen Joshi, Asha Bhonsle, Lakshami Shankar and Janaki Aiyyar had given their voices to the songs in this movie.
As mentioned above music for this movie was composed by Ram Kadam.
Lyricist name for the songs in this movie is not mentioned in HGK Vol-III and also I didn’t find it mentioned in the titles of the ‘Marathi movie-Pativrataa’.
I would request our seniors on this blog and other knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this movie and its songs.
Today’s song is sung by Bhimsen Joshi and Lakshami Shankar and music is composed by Ram Kadam.
Our tributes to Bhimsen Joshi, one of the greatest vocalist of this country, and one of my favorites.
With this song this movie ‘Pativrataa’ makes its debut on the blog.

This is a traditional bandish in raag Miyan Ki Todi. Pandit Bhimsen Joshi had sung more elaborately in concerts and had also recorded this bandish:
In the lyrics,it is ‘sataar’ (Sitaar, the musical instrument) and not ‘sadaa’.
