‘Roti’(1942) was directed by Mehboob Khan for Mehboob Productions, Bombay. The movie had Chandramohan, Sheikh Mukhtar, Sitaaraa Devi, Akhtari Fayzabadi, Ashraf Khan, Kayam Ali, Jamshedji, Misra,Wasker, Chobeji, Nawab, Agha Jani etc. in it.
‘Roti’ (1942) had 14 songs in it. Ten songs have been covered so far.
Here is the 11th song from movie to appear in the blog. The song is sung by Akhtari Faizabadi. Aarzoo Lucknowi is the lyricist. Music is composed by Anil Biswas.
Akhtari Faizabadi, who acted as well as sang her songs in the movie, later went on to become a legendary ghazal singer – “Malika e Ghazal” under the name Begum Akhtar. She was a recipient of Sangeet Natak Academy award in 1972. She was also a recipient of Padma Shree and Padma Bhushan.
The movie has three lyricists, namely Aarzoo Lucknavi, Dr.Safdar ‘Aah’ Sitapuri and Behzad Lucknawi. This song is penned by Aarzoo Lucknowi.
Aarzoo Lucknowi (1874 – 16 April 1951) was born as Sayyad Anwar Husain Kazmi in Lucknow. It was his guru Ustaad Jalaal Lucknowi who suggested to him to use Aazoo Lucknowi as his pen name.
Miss Jahananra Kajjan, the famous singer of those days (1920s), recommended the name of Aarzoo Lucknowi to Maadan Theatres owner. That is how Aarzoo Lucknowi came to Calcutta (now Kolkata) and began his career writing plays for Madan Theatres. In 1931, when movies began to talk and the Talkies era began, Aarzoo Lucknowi began to write lyrics for Hindi movies.
For the first decade, he was active in Calcutta. There, he wrote songs for movies like ’Manzil’ (1936), ‘Khudaai Khidmatgaar’ (1937), ‘Mukti’ (1937), ‘Abhaagin’ (1938), ‘Adhikaar’ (1938), ‘Ban Ki Chidiya’ (1938), ‘Street Singer’ (1938), ‘Dushman’ (1939), ’Jawaani Ki Reet’ (1939), ‘Kapaal Kundla’ (1939), ‘Aandhi’ (1940), ‘Haar Jeet’ (1940), ‘Nartaki’ (1940), ‘Qaidi’ (1940), ‘Doctor’ (1941), ‘Lagan’ (1941), ‘Maasoom’ (1941) etc.
Then he shifted base to Bombay. Here he penned lyrics from movies such as ‘Jawaani’ (1942), ‘Lala Ji’ (1942), ‘Roti’ (1942), ‘Yaad’ (1942), ’Fashion’ (1943), ‘Nai Zindagi’ (1943), ‘Najma’ (1943), ‘Paraaya Dhan’ (1943), ‘Parakh’ (1944), ‘Milan’ (1946), ‘Rangbhoomi’ (1946), ‘Shaahkaar’ (1947), ‘Tohfa’ (1947), ‘Laal Dupatta’ (1948), ‘Shauhar’ (1948), ‘Duniya’ (1949),’Raat Ki Raani’ (1949), ‘Saawan Aaya Re’ (1949), ‘Sipahiya’ (1949), ‘Beqasoor’ (1950), ‘Khel’ (1950), etc.
To my mind, he is arguably the first lyricist to pen a tonga song, car song and rail song in HFM. All these songs were in ‘Doctor’ (1941).
On out Blog, Aarzoo Lucknow has been in the ‘nervous ninetees’ since 17 June 2020 (day 4372 of the blog). He has spent 996 days on nineties ! Not any longer. Here is his 100th song in the blog.
Music of this song is composed by Anil Biswas. It was the first movie of Aarzoo Lucknowi with Anil Biswas. Subsequently they would collaborate in ‘Jawaani’ (1942), ‘Milan’ (1946) and ‘Beqasoor’ (1950) as well.
Let us listen to this song from ‘Roti’ (1942). Lyrics of the song were sent to me by Prakashchandra.
It may sound like just another song, but it is a song that marks the entry of yet another artist into the blog century club. Aarzoo Lucknowi becomes the 34th lyricist and 96th artist overall to complete century of songs in the blog.

Some established producer-directors generally have their wish list to make a film or two on the subjects that are close to their hearts. The fulfilment of their wishes gets postponed until such time the producer-directors are able to make the successful films in normal course of their career. After all, they need the financial security to take risk in producing films of their personal choices irrespective of the outcome at the box office.

Forgotten Melodies of the 1940s – 2

In the history of Rajputs, the name of Panna Dai has become immortal because of her supreme sacrifice. I first came to know about the story of Panna Dai in the Rajput history lesson during my school days. The only thing I remember of the story till a few days back was that Panna Dai sacrificed her own son to save the future Maharana of Mewad, Udai Singh for whom she was the Dai (Nanny). The detailed story of the 16th century nursemaid Panna Dai is available on Wikipedia.

This is the story of a diva who, despite being in the midst of very adverse family circumstances in her formative years and facing the conservative society, created a niche for herself in the field of classical and ghazal singing. It is also the story of a woman who, despite fame and adulation showered on her by millions of fans, felt lonely all through her life.
