Today’s song is the Last and final song from the Family Drama film Saas bhi kabhi Bahu thi – 1970.

The title of the film immediately reminds us of the popular TV serial Saas bhi kabhi Bahu thi which continuously ran from 3-7-2000 to 6-11-2008 in its first run and then the Season 2 started from 29-7-2025. Though the name of the serial and this film are similar, there is no connection between them. Of course, as the name suggests both were about the sour relationships of the Mother in law and the Daughter in law, which finally end in the sweet way – as expected by the audience and provided by the producers !

Sas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi (1970) is a classic Bollywood family drama-comedy that delves into the eternal, generation-spanning conflicts between mothers-in-law (saas) and daughters-in-law (bahu). Produced and Directed by V. Madhusudan Rao and featuring music by R. D. Burman, the film serves as a lesson in how misunderstanding can fracture a home and how empathy ultimately rebuilds it.

Today’s song is the last and final song from a not so well known, but deserving film – Saudamini (1950).

In Hindi (and in almost all Indian languages) films, well known and popular dramas, Novels, Stories and the famous writers have played a significant role in providing material to make logical and meaningful films with a message to the people or a particular society. I can say that films based on famous and popular writings have been made into more qualitative presentations than films on Folk stories and Historical Myths.

The cast included Raj Babbar, Sanjay Dutt, Amrita Singh, Alok Nath, Paresh Rawal, Neelu Phule, Mahesh Anand, Mushtaq Khan, Kamal Chopra, Anupam Kher, Dimple Kapadia, Akash Khurana, Tiku Talsania, Disco Shanthi, Avtar Gill, Akhtar Masood, Deepak Qazir, Manek Choudhry, A.C.

However, their father, Nanabhai Bhatt was credited as the producer of the film.

The story, screenplay and dialogues were written by Salim Khan which was said to have been inspired from the Hollywood film ‘On the Waterfront’ (1954) starring Marlon Brando. A decade later, Vishesh Films made ‘Ghulaam’ (1998), almost a remake of ‘Kabzaa). Both the Hindi versions of the Hollywood film were customised into the Indian socio-political scenarios in which ordinary citizens faces the wrath of the criminals.
