If one looks at professions, we find that different professions have enjoyed popularity during different times. As new inventions were made, new professions came about. The profession of film actors, technicians etc were created when film making started. Singers have been there in the past as well but they typically used to be patronised in royal court. with the invention of gramophone recording, singers’ songs could be recorded and played even at remote locations where the singer would never go. That way this invention revolutionised the spread of music. As Radio was invented, these records could be played on radio stations and the same songs could reach a vast audience who did not need to possess these records themselves. So Radio, along with records, enabled dissemination of music, as well as news etc at a level that was revolutionary in human history.

Today’s song is from the film Baraat-1942.
The film was made by Kirti Pictures, Bombay and it was directed by Dada aka V.M.Gunjal (25-1-1904 to 16-11-1968). The music was by the brothers Ratanlal and Khemraj – a pseudonym taken by Khemchand Prakash to hide his identity legally, because at that time he was under contract with Ranjit Studios from 1940 to 1945. This was an attempt by Khemchand to help Ratanlal learn and become an independent Music Director. However, it helped in a very little way.

My post is coming after almost 15 days’ gap. It was not because I was out of station, but due to the Laptop problem. The Laptop could not be repaired despite all efforts and I had to go for a New one. This is the first post from my New Laptop.
Today’s song is from the film Badi Maa-1945.
One of the favourite film titles of the filmmakers was the word ‘Maa’. There were 4 released and 1 unreleased film titled plain ‘Maa’. There were also 23 films starting with the word ‘Maa’, like Maa Baap (4 times), Maa, Behan aur Biwi, Maa beta, Maa beti etc. There was ‘ Maa ki Saugandh’ for Hindi lovers and ‘Maa ki Qasam’ for Urdu lovers. In addition there were other varieties of ‘Maa’ like, Badi Maa, Chhoti Maa, Sauteli Maa, Meri Maa, Teri Maa, Iski Maa, Uski Maa, Sabki Maa etc ending with Maa tujhe Salaam. Jokes aside, are titles for films in shortage or they just wanted to milk the cow by trying to arouse sentiments of a gullible audience ?

Today’s song is from the film Holi-1940.
The film was made by Ranjit Movietone, Bombay. The director was A.R.Kardar and the Music was by Khemchand Prakash, who had taken over from Gyan Dutt in the beginning of 1940. The first paid composer of Ranjit was Gyan Dutt from 1937 to 1940. In this period he gave music to 15 films. Khemchand Prakash gave music to 20 films in his period from 1940 to 1945, when Bulo C Rani took over in 1945 onwards. The film cast included Motilal, Ishwarlal,Keshavrao Datey, Lala yakub, Mirza Musharraf, Khursheed, Sitara, Tarabai, Dikshit and Ghori and many others. Actually the major stars of this film , Motilal, Ishwarlal, Sitara and Khursheed were all well known singers. However it was strange that Ishwar lal sang in the voice of Kantilal and Khursheed got the playback of Kalyani in this film, without getting a single song for themself.

1-10-2012.
This is the date which I shall never ever forget in my life. There are dates for several milestones in one’s life, like date of Birth, Date of graduation, Date of Marriage, Date of retirement etc etc. barring a few, one forgets all other dates, because those dates have no relevance to his current or future life.
Certain dates one can never forget, because those are the dates when one’s life had taken a turn – like a Marriage date or a Retirement date etc. 1-10-2012 is neither my date of Birth nor my marriage nor retirement date. So, what is there that makes it so unforgettable ?
