#the Decade of Fifties –1951 – 1960 #
——————————————————————

Today we get introduced to yet another obscure movie of yesteryear of Hindi Cinema or rather from the ‘golden years’ of Hindi Cinema. The movie is ‘Baghaawat’ from 1951.

Though this write-up was ready couple of months ago, it was not posted. And when it was not posted I had a doubt if the movie was an Indian movie or Pakistani movie? So, I noted it as a point to be discussed during the Gangout at Mumbai on 2nd June, 2023. However I forgot and it came back to my mind only when Atul ji had already left for his flight. But, then Sudhir ji, Bakshish Singh ji and Guru ji were still there. So I raised this query to them asking about my doubt.

I also told them that this song was uploaded by IMARC Jodhpur. Sudhir ji immediately confirmed that then it is surely authentic. IMARC Jodhpur is the channel belonging to Girdharilal Vishwakarma ji, whose research is meticulous. He also checked in his collection and informed that he has total six songs of this movie. Thus we can now proceed with introducing this movie on the blog.

After coming back from Mumbai trip I checked for more information about this movie on the sources as suggested by our Shri Arunkumar ji. Here I am sharing the information I have gathered so far.

HFGK Vol-III (1951-1960) mentions this movie in the list of ‘released movies’ of 1951. It also mentions this being a ‘costume drama’ genre movie presented by Ranjana Pictures.  However there is no information about the producer, director, cast, lyricist and music director of this movie. The date of passing by Censor Board for this movie is mentioned as 31.12.1951.

The total number of songs is also not mentioned and only one song with the title “Jawaani Aani Jaani” is given in the list of songs of this movie. After checking with Girdharilal ji, Sudhir ji confirmed that now four 78 rpm gramophone records have been identified for this movie, which means that eight songs of this movie are now available. Some songs are already available on internet, uploaded by Girdharilal ji. Myswar.co also mentions eight songs for this movie with the names of lyricist/s, and composers of the songs along with the names of the singers for each song.

Based on the information from the record labels, the banner of this movie is identified as as Shahida Art Films. The name of two music directors are identified as MH Khusro and S Islam. The names of the lyricists for are identified as Jameel Mazhari, Mahjoor Shamsi, and Naseem Kazmi. The label for these records is ‘Columbia Records’.

Out of the three lyricists, two of them viz. Mahjoor Shamsi and Naseem Kazmi seem to be ‘one film wonders’ only and I could not find songs written by them for any other movies in Geet Kosh. Same is the case with the two music directors i.e. MH Khusro and S Islam. They seem to have given music to this one movie only as per the information available.

There is an interesting twist about this title ‘Baghaawat’. As advised by Guru ji I checked this movie title in the ‘History of Pakistani Films’ website – pakmag.net. And here there is a ‘twist’. There is not movie with this title ‘Baghaawat’ listed in the years 1951 to 1960. But a movie with this title is listed in the year 1947 and it is mentioned that this movie was made in Bombay (now Mumbai). The company name is mentioned as Sheeda Arts which sounds so very similar to Shahida Arts as mentioned above. Further this page also mentions the name of the director and actor for this movie as Shaida Imam and the name of the music director as Muzammal Khursheed.

For Shaida Imam pakmag.net website mentions that he was producer and director of some movies in Pakistan and India – ‘Baghaawat’ (1947) in Hindi and Urdu and ‘Sitaaron Ki Duniya’ (1958) in Urdu are the two films to his credit. [Editor’s Note: ‘Sitaaron Ki Duniya’ (1958) is a Pakistani movie.]

Is this movie ‘Baghaawat’ the same movie made in 1947 and released later in 1951 by Ranjana Pictures?  We do not know.

Now coming to the lyricist Jameel Mazhari. Here is a brief about him as mentioned by Sudhir ji in his post for the song “Henna Motia Aur Khus Bechti Hoon” from the movie ‘Baap’ (1946).

The name Jameel Mazhari is not new to our blog, and there are four songs penned by him already showcased here.  As I tried to find more information about this poet, I came across a brief about him on the internet.  Jameel Mazhari was a man of literature.  He was born in 1904 in Patna.  Son of Syed Khurshid Husain, young Jameel had his schooling at Motihari (Bihar) and later studied at the Calcutta University from where he did his Masters in Persian. He began his career as a journalist in a Calcutta daily. He was actively involved in the anti-British movement. His friendship with Josh Malihabadi brought him briefly to the film industry where he had short stints as lyricist and story writer in films at all the three main centers, i.e. Bombay, Lahore and Calcutta. In 1946, he became lecturer in Urdu at Patna College from where he moved to the Patna University where he served in different capacities till 1974. Jameel Sb composed ghazals, nazms, rubai, qata, marsia and host of other forms of poetic expressions.  Jameel Sb was a disciple of Vahshat Kalkattvi and also considered Iqbal to be his mentor and guide. His major works include Naqsh-e-Jameel (1953), Fikr-e-Jameel (1958), Wijdan-e-Jameel (1979), and Irfan-e-Jameel (1979).  Jameel Sb passed away in 1979.

On this blog we already have songs written by Jameel Mazhari posted which are from the movie ‘Kurukshetra’ (1945). And one song from the movie ‘Baap’ (1946) has also been posted. Earlier we considered that Jameel Mazhari might have written songs for only one movie – ‘Kurukshetra’ only. But here I would like to mention the details as given below wherein the movies he wrote lyrics are given. He has the following movies to his credit.

Sl. No Movie Title Year Music Director No of songs written
01 Kurukshetra 1945 Pandit Ganpat Rao 14
02 Baap 1946 KP Sen 4
03 Jhoothhi Kasmein 1948 GA Chishti 11* (with G.A. Chishti)
02 Baghaawat 1951 MH Khusro 5
03 Jawaani Ki Aag 1951 GA Chishti 10* (with G.A. Chishti)

*Two song writers are mentioned but which song is written by whom in not specified.

The lyricist for today’s song is Naseem Kazmi and as mentioned above he has written only one song which is being presented today.

The singer of today’s song i.e. Nazneen has sung three songs in this movie and these are the only songs sung by her in films as per information available. However she has been credited for acting in the movie ‘Baap Re Baap’ (1955) as per information available on ‘myswar’.

As per the information available movies with this title ‘Baghaawat’ were made in 1951, 1960s or 1964, 1971 and 1982. Recently we introduced the movie with same title, which was an un-released or shelved movie made in the decade of 1960s. Before this post we already have the movies made in 1982 and 1964 (UR) represented on the blog. The movie made in 1971 again seems to be a very obscure movie. But now couple of its songs is available and I am going to bring them here in following posts.

For today let us welcome this movie ‘Baghaawat’ of 1951 on the blog with its first song being presented today. This song is a nice song to listen to. As mentioned above, today’s song is sung by Naazneen and lyrics are by Naseem Kazmi. Music is composed by S Islam.

I would request knowledgeable readers to add more information about this movie and its songs.

Only the audio for the today’s song is available.

Avinash ji,
Well done.
You seem to have gone the extra mile to collect information on this film.
I am impressed . For your information, when the famous Collector of records, Syed Zafar Shah asked me information on this film, I gave him link of your this post. He read it and was satisfied.
This is the result of taking efforts to get right information from reliable sources, before writing a post.
Do continue your likeable new style of writing
