#The Decade of Fifties – 1951 – 1960 #
————————————————————————
“Dashaavtaar-1951” was directed by Jayant Desai for J.K. Films, Bombay. It was produced by Kikubhai Desai. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 14.08.1951. The cast of this movie had Nirupa Roy, Trilok Kapoor, Niranjan Sharma, Umakant, Vasantrao Pahalwan, Praveen Kumar, Baby Tabassum, Murad, Master Dhulia, Revashankar, Satya Narayan, Chandabai, Charubala, Neerja, Nagolkar, Pt Iqbal, and others. Actor Jeevan had made a guest appearance in this movie.
This movie ‘Dashaavtaar’ was amythological movie. Here is what our beloved in-house encyclopaedia Shree Arunkumar jee had mentioned about the ‘Ten incarnations’ or the ‘Dashaavtaars’ of Lord Vishnu in his post with a song from this movie earlier.
There are hundreds of religions in the world, but one thing is common with them. Followers of any religion are usually blind followers and do not know much about their religion. Why go far? Ask 10 Hindu persons known to you the names of the 10 Avatars of Vishnu and I can confidently say that the majority will not be able to give the correct answer. You can try this on yourself and find out if YOU can tell all the 10 Avatars in the proper serial!
The 10 Avatars in proper serials were Matsya, Koorm, Varah, Narsimha, Waman, Parshuram, Shri Ram, Shri Krishna, Buddha and Kalki. The first of 9 avatars have taken place and only Kalki is remaining. It is said that Kalki will come on Earth, dissolve all the world and start again from the beginning. Lord Shri Krishna has explained why Vishnu had to take Avatars. He had said” यदा यदा हि धर्मस्य ग्लानिर्भवति भारत। अभ्युत्थानमधर्मस्य तदात्मानं सृजाम्यहम्” (Whenever There Is A Decline In Righteousness and An Increase In Sinfulness, O Arjun, At That Time I Manifest Myself On Earth.) This is a long Shlok and singer Jagjit Singh has cut a record of the full shloka.
“Dashaavtaar-1951” has twelve songs in it. The lyricist for the songs in this film are Saraswati Kumar ‘Deepak’ (five songs), B.P. Bhargav (five songs) and Munshi Sagar Hussain (two songs). The singers for this movie are Geeta Dutt, Mohd Rafi, Sulochana Kadam, Asha Bhonsle, Badrinath Vyas, and A.R. Ojha. Geet Kosh mentions in its foot note for this movie-page that one song ‘o mere maalik, bolo kab aake mujhe bachaaoge…’ was later removed from the film. This song has already been covered on this blog. So far six songs from this movie have already been posted on the blog.
Today I am presenting the seventh song from this movie. This song is a lively song about the full moon night’ and the ‘raas leela’ on the banks of river jamunaa. The composition is based on folk music of Gujarat. Sulochana Kadam is the singer, accompanied by chorus. Lyrics are by B.P. Bhargav and music is composed by Avinash Vyas.
Let us now enjoy this lovey-lively song … I have not been able to note correct words at places where I have marked a (?). I would request readers to provide correct words at such places please.
