The decade of the 1950s was a time when, having got our independence in 1947, the whole nation was now busy reconstructing our country to our choice. This was the time when family values, importance of joint families, religion, law and order, Nehru’s socialistic pattern etc. were being reestablished. With all this, the turmoil in the society could not be isolated. It had its effects on the social atmosphere, markets, businesses, housing and of course the films.

When we discuss songs in the blog, sometimes they are accompanied by statistics. We can notice that discussions sometimes become clearer when we deal objectively (in numbers )rather than subjectively(using adjectives). We can give the facts, let the readers can judge for themselves.

Today’s song is from Raj Kapoor’s flop film Baawra-1950.
When I started collecting information on this film, I got a Zero at every attempt that I made to get its story. Disappointed, I left that point and wanted to know more about the film’s director G. Rakesh -a name I had never heard in the last many years. I was wondering that a film of Raj Kapoor and an unknown director ? कुछ तो गडबड है !

When we discuss songs of 1930s and 1940s, we tend to think that those days that are now 80 to 90 years behind us were similar to present days, as far as listening to songs was concerned. This assumption is highly incorrect. Today everyone is able to listen to any song that is available online. Those days technology was far less advanced. Forget internet, even Radio and TV were in their infancy. Record players and movies were the only means to listening to songs. Record players were very expensive. Only rich people could afford them. Even Radio was expensive. Even if Radio was there, there were very few Radio stations that played film songs. For majority of people, visiting movie halls may have been the only way they would be ale to listen to a song. If the movie was a hit movie, then getting entry into the movie hall was a tall order. One needed to brave big crowd and somehow jostle one’s way to the ticket counter and shove one’s hand, with money in it, inside the round counter measuring less than six inch in diameter and tell the counter clerk how many ticket you required.

Today (13 June 2023)is the birth centenary of Prem Dhawan (13 June 1923-7 May 2001).
When I was growing up, I knew him as the lyricist of patriotic songs. Among his most well known songs to me were “O mera rang de basanti chola” from “Shaheed”(1965), “Ae mere pyaare watan tujhpe dil qurbaan” from “Kabuliwala”(1961) and “Chhodo kal ki baaten kal ki baat puraani” from Hum Hindustani(1960). Though I knew him mainly as a lyricist, sometimes he would double up as lyricist cum music director, as in “Shaheed”(1965) and “Pavitra Paapi”(1970).
