Today’s song is from a Mythological film Hanuman Pataal Vijay-1951.

The film was made by Basant Pictures of Homi Wadia, who was the Producer and the Director of this film. It is very strange that a person who separated from his own brother on the issue of making stunt/action films- which he advocated- resorted to making social and Mythological films and his brother, who advocated making films other than stunt/action films, continued to make stunt films ! One wonders why at all they separated then !

The film had music by the Wadia favourite – S.N.Tripathi, who also expertly acted as Hanuman in such films. The cast of the film included Meena Kumari, Mahipal, Niranjan Sharma (a fixed actor as Ravan in every Wadia film), S.N.Tripathi, Dalpat, H. Prakash, Amarnath, Rajni (daughter of Bhudo Advani’s brother) and many others. The 4 Lyricists of the film wrote 8 songs.

The song being presented in this post is from the movie ‘Ahinsa Path’ from the year 1949. Very less information is available about this movie. HFGK Vol-II (1941-1950) lists six songs of this movie, but there is no information on its cast and director.

As per Geet Kosh “Ahinsa Path-1949” was a movie presented by ‘Aruna Productions, Bombay’. Harish Bharadwaj was the composer for this movie. The six songs are sung by Poornima Chatterjee, Harish Bharadwaj, Sahana Maitra and chorus. Lyricist’s name for the songs is not known except for one song which has been covered earlier on this blog. Some sources on internet mention Aruna BA as lyricist for the song under discussion.

(Debutant Movie- Batohi-1949)

I was specifically looking for a devotional song. While going through the Geet Kosh Volume –II (1941-1950), I come across this pleasant surprise which I am presenting here today.

I had come across this title ‘Batohi-बटोही’ in Geet Kosh (1941-1950) in the past under the list of Un-Released movies. (Those days the songs from this movie were not available on internet ).

Searching for word ‘‘Batohi-बटोही’ on this blog yields only one result. This word appears only in the famous song ‘kaun disaa mein leke chalaa re batohiyaa’ from “Nadiya Ke Paar”(1982)

Coming to the movie ‘Batohi-1949’, very less information is available about it in the Geet Kosh. The name of the director for this movie is not given. However some sources on internet mention the name of the director as Kumar Menon. He directed this movie for T.K. Screen Classics. The cast of this movie had Bharat Bhooshan, Indu Pal, Krishna Murari, Beena Pal, Kesari, Shivraj, Sapru and others.
