Today’s song is from an extremely obscure film Chhoti Duniya-1953.

The reason this film is so obscure is that the film was made by an unknown banner – Meera Productions, Ahmedabad. The producer’s name- D.M.Sheth- was as unknown as this film’s director- cum – Hero, Uday Kumar. The entire list of the starcast was almost full of less known or unknown artistes like Uday Kumar, Leela Kumari, Nannoo, Ranjit kumari, Ashwini Roy, B.Lalwani, Mulji Khushal, Babu, Chander, Asha etc. Since it was a film produced in Gujarat, it is possible that some of the artistes may be from Gujarathi films or stage dramas. If so and if any of the readers know it, kindly mention it in the Comments column.

Today’s song is from the film Sipahiya-1949.

When India got independence in 1947 and the British Rule ended, the Indian public breathed a sigh of relief. Especially, the film industry felt like coming out of a prison. During British rule, there were so many restrictions, specially during the war period, on the filmmaking – like, you can’t show the British in bad light, you can’t speak about Independence openly, you can’t criticise Government policies etc etc. Even the wordings of songs and dialogues were under a sharp lens. The best example of this oppression was the song in the film ” Kismet”-1943, ‘Aaj Himalay ki choti se ‘ written by Kavi Pradeep. He had to go underground to avoid arrest for this song !

Today’s song is from the film Garib-1942.

This film was made by the National studios, which was formed after Sagar movietone was closed down. Because of this the artiste who were contracted with Sagar were now bound with National Studios. Music Director Anil Biswas, actor Surendra, Sankatha prasad, Ramchandra Thakur and few others who worked for this film were ‘carried forward’ from Sagar Movietone. Most of them freed themselves to work for other studios or became Free lancers. But Music Director Anil Biswas, while in contract withNational studios, gave music to a film ” Basant ”, made by Bombay Talkies and the name of his brother in law, Pannalal Ghosh was used as the MD of that film. After the closure of national studios, Anil Biswas openly joined Bombay Talkies leaving all his loyal friends of Sagar Movietone, jobless. This became the cause of a rift between once close friends Mehboob Khan and him as Khan never pardoned Anil Biswas for this selfish act. (ref…book “Mehboob Khan” by Shashikant Kinikar).

‘Teesra Kinaara’ (1986) is one of those films of 1980s which faded into oblivion despite having a good story and music. The film has become so obscure that it is not available for viewing on video sharing platforms. Despite my best efforts, I did not find the film on OTT platforms also. Fortunately, the video clips of a couple of songs are available besides mp3 clips of all the songs.

The first social drama TV serial (also called soap operas) on Doordarshan was ‘Humlog’ (1984). The huge success of this TV serial prompted other producers to come out with soap operas which needed to be telecasted only on Doordarshan as no private TV channels were in operation at that time. They had to find the free slots on Doordarshan which became difficult as years passed. Doordarshan generally accepted the TV serials ranging from 13, 26 and at most 52 episodes with few exceptions. The restriction of the number of episodes meant that more number of TV Serial makers could be accommodated apart from ensuring the TV serials were not unnecessarily stretched at the cost of their qualitative contents.

Today’s song is from the film 25th July-(1951).

This is the second film in succession having a title, beginning with only a number, from which I have discussed songs. Surprisingly, as per the Film Title Index book by Hamraz ji, there are as many as 53 films , whose titles start with numericals, during the period 1931 to 2012. I am not considering film titles starting with “Ek”, because though a number, it is written in words – for example Ek thi Ladki etc. Such films are actually 206 in numbers for the same period. Let us take a look at a few film titles from the lot of 53 films….
