Things do not get any more rare than this.  Plus celebrations like today’s, also do not get any more better and rare.

Milestones is a habit now long forgotten on this blog. No, I do not mean to say we do not celebrate. But it has now become a matter of routine. However, a milestone such as today, came to fore after a journey of more than 17 years. And that too – we can just bask in this glory for a few hours more. Night will fall, the sun will rise, and this milestone will be left behind – forever.

In five decades of recorded data (1931-80), there is an estimated approximation – about 45 thousand songs, give or take. Beyond that, another 45 years of an industry that I and more in my category have not tracked sincerely. But taking just a crude estimate, let us say, another 40 thousand songs. We are talking of a huge repository that is about 85 thousand songs. I am sure, it is a number that cannot be matched by any other segment of the industry world wide. And if I take a look at the counter on the top of this article, a whopping 20+ percent of that repository is already showcased on Atul-Song-a-Day.

A moment it takes to absorb this. Time to ruminate, to contemplate and to let this number sink in inside.

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 Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
————————————————————————

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.
