Today’s song is from a film made almost 90 years ago….Maaya-1936.
This was a presentation of New Theatres, Calcutta, founded by its owner B.N.Sircar on 10th February 1931. In a span of just 24 years, it had made 150 films in Bangla, Hindi and some other languages. New Theatres actually was like an Academy for training film industry personnel in the Indian subcontinent. B.N.Sircar, though the owner of the company, had a very restricted role in its film making, once it started shooting. After the story was approved and the required finance was provided, he never interfered in the making of the film, rarely even visiting the shooting floors. This freedom helped many talented composers, directors, actors and the technical staff to learn how to face problems and solve them. There was a “Family” feeling among the workers.

Ameen Sayani (21 December 1932- 20 February 2024) recently left for the heavenly abode on 20 february 2024. It goes without saying that Ameen Sayani was easily one of the most important personalities in the field of HFM. Instead of coming up with a hastily prepared article as a tribute to Ameen Sayani, I thought that I should pay him a tribute by discussing Binaca geetmala, a programme that was a musical phenomenon of our times. When we think of Ameen Sayani, we think of Binaca geetmala and vice versa.

Today’s song is from a Romantic cum Mystery film – Apradhi-1949.
Although HFGK labels it as a ‘Social’ film, I found that this film is half-way through a Romantic film and the second half is full of Mystery, hence I called it a Romantic cum Mystery film.
