#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
————————————————————————
(Lyricist Kavi Pradeep-9)
—————————–
Today’s song is from the movie ‘Amrapali-1945’. It was directed by Nandlal Jaswantlal for ‘Murli Movietone, Bombay’. It was a movie from the genre of ‘Historical movies’. The cast of this has Prem Adib, Sabita Devi, Jeevan, Arun, Jagdish, Badri Prasad, Sankata Prasad, Gulab, Kabeer and others.
Here is a brief about this movie as mentioned by our inhouse cinema encyclopaedia Shree Arunkumar jee :-
In film Amrapali-45, the film story was by Ramchandra Thakur. Actually, this was based on Thakur’s own famous novel Amrapali. The dialogues were by Munshi Dil. The film, made under the banner of Murli Cinetone, was shot entirely in the Andheri studios of Lakshmi productions. The story of Amrapali is a real story, which took place in the times of Gautam Buddha. Although the original novel of Ramchandra Thakur depicted the reality in his book very nicely, the film story was twisted and under the guise of taking ‘Cinematic liberty’, the main events of the story were drastically changed, twisting the history. Comparatively, the film ‘Amrapali’ made later in 1966 was much better. At least it did not change the original story. Amrapali or Ambapalika’s story is mentioned in old Pali language Texts and Buddhist literature.
‘Amrapali-1945’ has eleven songs written by Kavi Pradeep where he wrote the songs under the name of Miss Kamal, B.A. Here is what Shree Arunkumar jee has written about his in his above post:-
The 11 songs of the film were written by Miss Kamal, B.A… Most readers who are knowledgeable about the vintage films of the 40’s know that Miss Kamal, B.A. was a pseudonym of Kavi Pradeep. At that time, he was under contract with Bombay Talkies and could not use his real name. Under this Pen name, he wrote lyrics for four films, namely Kadambari-44, Amrapali-45, Sati Toral-47 and Veerangana-47. Incidentally, all these films were directed by Nandlal Jaswantlal.
Music for ‘Amrapli-1945’ was composed by Saraswati Devi. Geet Kosh Vol-II (1941-1950) mentions the name of the singer for eight songs, namely Ameerbai Karnataki – six solo songs, G.M. Durrani and Khan Mastana one solo song each.
So far three songs from this movie have been posted on this blog. Today I am presenting the fourth song from this movie which is in the voice of Khan Mastana. It is a simple devotional song. Only audio of this song is available.
Let us now listen to this song …
