‘Sutradhar’ (1987) was an off-beat film which was directed by Chandrakant Joshi. The main cast of the film included Smita Patil and Nana Patekar in the lead roles, supported by Girish Karnad, Gajanan Jagirdar, Nilu Phule, Ashalata Wabgaonkar, Madhu Kambikar, Kamalakar Sarang, Shrikant Moghe, Irshad Hashmi, Master Hrishikesh Joshi etc. Sudheer Moghe wrote lyrics and composed the songs for the film. The film was certified by Censor Board on 31/01/1986 and may have been released a year later as the film’s credit title starts with the film being dedicated to the late Smita Patil who passed away on 13/12/1986. As far as I know, this was the only film in which Smita Patil and Nana Patekar acted together in the lead roles.

I was not aware of a film titled ‘Parinati’ (1986) which is pronounced in Hindi as परिणति (Inevitable). In fact, when I came across the title of the film on the internet a few days back, I was subconsciously reading it as ‘Parineeta’. The film was available for viewing on one of the video sharing platforms. I watched the film last week and found it to be gripping and heart wrenching.

Today’s song is a traditional bhajan from a Mythological film Shabri-1947.

This was a Mythological film, the story of which we all know since our childhood. This was a film made in Calcutta by Rajeshwari Kala Mandir. The film was directed by R.C.Deepak. He seems to be a “One film wonder” in direction. Lyricists names are not mentioned in HFGK or internet. The Music Director was Pt. Ganapat Rao. There are 12 songs, but details of only 3 songs (including one two sided song sung by Jaganmoy Mitra aka Jagmohan Sursagar) are available. The cast of the film was Molina, Gopal Mehra, Biman Banerjee, Kishore, Premkumari, Beena, Preetidhara and Sunder singh. All these, except Sunder, look like Bangla artistes, for whom information is difficult to collate, barring Molina.

Hullo Atuldom

27th June – a favorite music director, singer and one-time actor would have turned 84. His name at birth was Rahul and his parents were Meera & Sachin Dev Burman.
