Today’s song is from the film Chand ki Duniya-1959.

Man has always been curious about the unknown matters like his future, after death existence or the various planets. Maybe this age-old desire promoted study of the Occult and the various Fortune telling sciences, everywhere in the world in different civilisations over thousands of years. Whether Fortune telling is a science or not is a matter of debate, but the fact remains that almost every person believes, at the back of his mind, that such sciences, in fact, were much developed in the early stages of mankind.

Most people wish to know about their future and thus the ” Neem Hakeem” ( people with half knowledge ) type of Astrologers and Palmists cropped up. When you go to them, they will use some worn out statements like ” actually you are very intelligent but people have no value for you ” or ” you are very good-natured, but people take undue advantage of your goodness ” etc. etc. Of Course, I am not doubting your intelligence or good nature. I know you are very intelligent really. So here is a small exercise for you.

From 1931 to 2000, about 7000 actors and actresses worked in films. In addition from 1931 till today, about 15000 or so films were made. What you have to do is just write down names of 100 Films on a paper in 2 hours’ time. Ok. You can take 4 hours. No cheating please ! Do not refer to any book, HFGK, Internet or an expert. Done ? Now check how many names of films you could write. Disappointed ? Take another test of writing just 50 names of Hero/Heroines in Hindi films, which you remember. This is easier, so only 2 hours are given.

Most people will realise that it is not as easy as one would imagine. The point I wish to make is that it is difficult to remember titles of films or actors’ names because it is not in our everyday schedule. We do remember some titles of films which are very easy, or connected to our memory. We remember films either for their stories, songs, actors or when films are seen with ” Special ” companions. This is about the usual films. But C grade stunt and action filmmakers have different thinking in giving titles to their films. They felt that odd titles would evoke curiosity and would attract an audience. Therefore there were very strange and odd titles of such films.

Did you ever see films like, Khooni Khanzar, Dagabaj Doctor, Shaitaan ka paash, Char chakram, Daku Rani Talwarwali, Jaadu ka Dandaa, Zinda Laash, Revolver Rani, Sindbad-Alladin-Alibaba, Flying man, Fighter Sheela, Khooni Darinda, Tarzan aur Jadugar, Tarzan aur Jadui Chiraag, Golden Gang, Murde ki jaan khatare mein, or Jadui Putli ?

When the Talkie films started , here too Mythologicals led the list. However the First Action Film in Talkie was ” Dagabaz Aashiq”-1932, closely followed by another action film “Do Badmash” made by Imperial and Ranjit respectively. After this there was no looking back. There was enough material available for Mythological, Historical, religious, social, fantasy and Costume films in India,with its rich Heritage, but for Action and Stunt films, movie makers looked to the west.

The legendary King Arthur, Robin Hood, William Tell, Zorro and Tarzan etc all became sources of inspiration for action and stunt films in India. Skillful adaptation and Indianization of western Heroes coupled with the fertile imagination of story writers in our studios provided enough fodder. It is through this that emerged the ideas of ‘Masked men’,’Hunterwali’ and various Baghis.OUT OF THESE THE TARZAN STORIES WERE MORE POPULAR AS THEY COMBINED MYSTERY, JUNGLES, SUPERHUMAN POWERS AND GREAT STRENGTHS WHICH TAMED THE WILD ANIMALS. COUNTLESS FILMS WERE MADE WITH TARZAN AS THE CENTRAL CHARACTER.

When the normal titles finished, the imaginative writers combined Tarzan with Aladdin, Delialah, Rocket, Gorilla, Mermaid, King Kong, Hercules, Cobra, Circus and even Fairyland. When this too was exhausted, they joined him with places like Delhi, spies like 303 etc. They gave Tarzan a Daughter also. When the Indianisation of Tarzan was complete, in came ZIMBO !

Whatever the title, the script ideas were more or less the same. It ensured that the Hero’s supernatural powers and strength was used and wild animals were shown in abundance.

Otherwise totally unknown, unheard of composers like, Momin, Ibrahim, Talwar, Peter-Nawab, Nisar,Tan Mohan, Prem Tandon, Vijay Honavar, Harbans, Motibabu, Shri Ram, Bipin Datta, S Madan, Saadat, S.Kishen, N.Chaudhari,J P Kaushik etc would give music to C grade films. Once in a while,Hansraj Behl, C.Ramchandra, Ravi, Chitragupta, Roshan etc were also found in C grade films.

When Russia sent its Sputnik 1 and Sputnik 2 with dog Lyka into space, this gave a new subject for the filmmakers all over the world and the Indian filmmakers too were not behind them Some 2 or 3 films about space travel were made quickly within 2-3 years. One such film was Chand ki Duniya-1959. I had not seen this film and I could not get its storyline also anywhere. However from the information available , it seemed to be a Rocket going and landing on the Moon and returning safely with the astronauts. A love story was woven around space travel.

The film was made by Filmistan , obviously as a quicky. It was directed by Mohan Sinha – grandfather of actress Vidys Sinha, famous for the film Rajnigandha. Music was by S.D.Batish using his pseudonym Nirmal Kumar. The cast was Sohan kapila, Nalini Chonkar, p. Kailash, Ram Avtar, Badri prashad, B.M.Vyas Husn Banu and many others Qamar Jalalabadi wrote all the 6 songs.

NALINI is an interesting name. I said it was interesting, because, in Hindi films, as many as 12 NALINIs acted/ sang in films at slightly different times. Add to this list, the name of a Male actor ‘ Nalini Ranjan Roy ‘, who, thankfully, acceded to the suggestion to change his name to ‘Kanu’ Roy. ( It is another matter that even this name clashed with another artiste, Kanu Roy, who was MD, in the same period…causing serious ” Same Name Confusion”. ) The different NALINIs were…

Actress Remarks
Nalini Tarkhud many films
Nalini Jayawant many films
Baby Nalini Mera ladka-43
Nalini Nagpurkar Krishnarjun yuddha-34, Chacha Chaudhary-53
Nalini Chonkar many films
Nalini Borkar singer
Nalini Dhere Nagad Narayan-43
Nalini Gupte Ankh ki sharm-43
Nalini Mulgaonkar Didi-48, nakli Baap-49
Nalini Rao Talash-43
Nalini Saraf (later Seema Deo) Anand-70
Nalini Korgaonkar singer

Additionally, there were actresses called SuNALINI and MriNALINI too. You can also find names of some Baby Nalini s in the HFGK.

These Nalinis did not cause any Same name Confusion, because, being Marathi artistes, they wrote their names with Surnames, so their names remained different always. Easily, this name is the most ‘appeared’ name for different artistes, in the Hindi Film History !

Nalini Chonkar was the daughter of actor singer Krishnarao Chonkar, who sang and acted in Marathi and Hindi films and also sang on Radio. Nalini was born on 12-6-1938 in Bombay. She learnt Bharat Natyam for about 6 years as well as learnt singing from experts. Thus she became proficient in Song and Dance, both.

Her musical career started as a Playback singer in Marathi films in 1955. By then she had also acted in the film Bhanudas-53. She acted in few Marathi films as a Heroine. She used the name ” Neelambari ” in Marathi films. Her first Hindi film was Lalkar-56. She acted in 21 Hindi films namely, Rani Roopmati-57, Do Roti-57,n Bhabhi-57, Saazish-59 Madam XYZ-59, Chand ki Duniya-59, Chand mere aaja-60, Shravan kumar-60, Jo huwa so bhool jao-60, Piya milan ki aas-61, Modern Girl-61, Madan Manjiri-61, Baje Ghungroo-62, parasmani-63, Namaste ji-65, Mera Bhai Mera Dushman-67, Tatar ki Hasina-68 and Mata Mahakali-68.

She stopped Hindi films and went to do Gujarati films till 1984. She returned and did her last Hindi film Pathar Dil-1985.

After this she stopped acting and dancing in Hindi, Marathi and Gujarati films. She started her own Dancing school called ” Nalini Chonkar’s Academy of Acting, Dancing and Singing” on Veera Desai Road, Andheri West, Mumbai-53.

Nalini Chonkar died on 26-5-2005.

Today’s song is sung by Asha Bhosle and Chorus. Enjoy….

‘Door Naheen Manzil’ (1973) was produced and directed by Hari Walia. The cast included Sanjeev Kumar, Reshma, Pradeep Kumar, Faryal, Durga Khote, Suresh, Ramavatar, Sadhana Khote etc, with special appearances of Manmohan Krishna, Hina Kausar, Joginder, and Maruti. The film was released on October 9, 1973.

It would appear that the film was in the making for a long time. The original music director was Roshan who had recorded a title song of the film. After his death on November 16, 1967, Shankar-Jaikishan were roped in. The film’s original cast included Nutan in the lead role. However, she withdrew from the film after she had some problem with Sanjeev Kumar while working with him in the film ‘Devi’ (1970). Nutan was replaced by debutant Reshma. Some online references mention her to be one of the sisters of Bindu. Reshma does have some facial resemblance of Bindu.

There may be about a dozen Hindi films with the stories of two brothers falling in love with the same girl, generally with one responsible brother and the other, the brat. Finally, one of the brothers get the girl. But in ‘Door Naheen Manzil’ (1973), the circumstances makes the elder brother to take care of the girl who is supposed to be abandoned by a man the elder brother is not aware. It is only when they meet after a long time that the man is none other than his younger brother. The girl comes to know about the circumstances and now she is caught between a younger brother whom she loved and his elder brother who has given her shelter when she needed badly being an orphan. How does this tangle get resolved?

The story of the film is as under:

Kewal (Sanjeev Kumar) is a pilot in Air India on international routes. He is in love with Anjali (Reshma) who is an orphan and works as a Nurse in a hospital. Whenever, Kewal comes back to Mumbai from his international travels, he meets Anjali and spend times with her. In one of such meetings, they were required to spend a night together in a hotel because she was late for returning to her hospital quarters whose gate closes early in the night. He intends to marry her on his return from the next international flight as she carries his child in her womb.

Shankar (Suresh), his childhood friend who is also in Mumbai has become an alcoholic and a womaniser. Many times, Kewal has caught Shankar in inebriated conditions during which he was trying to molest ladies. He has warned Shankar to desist from such acts. For this reason, Shankar is angry as well jealous with Kewal for his relations with Anjali. Shankar plans to retaliate.

Anjali meets a Dadi Maa (Durga Khote) in her hospital whose grandson, Guddu (Master Ratan) has been admitted here. Anjali tends Guddu in the hospital and after his discharge, she meets Dadi Maa and Guddu periodically in their temporary residence in Mumbai to enquired about the well-being of Guddu.

One day, Anjali sees a photograph of Kewal with a lady in a newspaper with a caption that they are going to get married. Anjali is shocked and she has no one to share her trauma except Dadi Maa who suggests her to join her on her return journey to thier native place and spend sometime to get over the trauma. Anjali resigns from her job and goes with Dadi Maa and Guddu.

In the native place, Dadi Maa lives in a palatial house where her son Ashok (Pradeep Kumar) is in timber business and owns a large chunk of land. Guddu is his son from his wife who had ditched him after having extra-marital relationship with a man. This has created hatred for woman in the mind of Ashok. As a result, he resents the presence of Anjali in the house. Days pass and there is always some conflicts between him and Anjali about her singing, placing more idols of Gods in the house etc.

After knowing the reasons for his bizarre behaviour, Anjali tries to pacify him by saying that just because of the wrong doing of one woman, it is not right to treat all women in the same yardstick. Gradually, Ashok mellows down and starts behaving normally with Anjali when he comes to know that like him, she is also the victim of a man who have discarded her after she had become pregnant from him. Ashok assures Anjali that he would take care of her and also of her child when born.

When things have nicely settled down for Anjali, she faces yet anther litmus test. Kewal after returning from the international flight, comes to know that Anjali has resigned from her job and has left the city for some unknown destination. He gets worried as she has no one in the family or friends to guide her. After not finding her anywhere, Kewal decides to visit his native place for a change which he had abandoned long time back.

One day, Anjali is shocked to find Kewal sitting in her house. Soon Dadi Maa and Ashok come to the house and are delighted to see Kewal after a long time. Kewal is the second son of Dadi Maa and the younger brother of Ashok. Anjali is in a piquant situation. She is caught between two brothers – one, whom she loved and the other, who gave her the shelter. In this milieu, Anjali leaves the house without the knowledge of anyone. At nick of the time, Ashok reaches the railway station where she is waiting for the train to arrive. He takes her back to the house but she does not disclose the reason for abruptly leaving the house.

Anjali’s closeness to Ashok creates a doubt in the mind of Kewal. He fails to get the reasons from Anjali for her unusual behaviour with him. He goes to a local bar for a drink where he meets Shankar who has also come to the native place to meets his blind grandfather and his sister (Faryal). Kewal is worried that Shankar may spill the beans about his relations with Anjali to Ashok. His fear becomes true as Shankar, in an inebriated condition, goes to Ashok and Shankar follows him. When he is about to spill the beans, Kewal pounced upon him. After a brief fight with Kewal, Shankar manages to kidnap Anjali to drive her out of the place. But his sister comes on the way and injures Shankar by firing from the revolver belonging to him. The police team comes and arrest him.

Before he is taken to the police station, Shankar requests the police to allow him to make a confession in the presence of Ashok, Kewal and Anjali. He reveals that just to create a rift between Kewal and Anjali, it was he who got published the fake news in the papers with the photograph of Kewal and a lady with the caption that they are going to get married. The film ends with Ashok performing the ritual of uniting Kewal and Anjali.

From the story, I feel that with Nutan being the original lead actress, it was planned to be a woman-oriented film. With Reshma taking Nutan’s place, her role seems to be somewhat watered down. The film suffers from some continuity problems probably arising out of a long delay in completion of the film during which the film’s shooting may have been halted for a long period. The move over from one scene to another in couple of places does not appear to be linear narrations nor the flashback. Probably, it may be some kind of editing errors while converting the film from VHS tapes to VCD. It was only when I watched the second half of the film, I could get some connection in the story. For example, I did not understand what is the role of Shankar (Suresh) in the first half of the film – a villain or a supporting character who comes in contact with Kewal (Sanjeev Kumar). It was only in the second half I came to know that Shankar and Kewal belonged to the same native place and they were childhood friends. But later on, Shankar had developed a hatred for Kewal out of jealousy.

‘Door Naheen Manzil’ (1973) had 5 songs with one song spread over to 3 different scenes in the film. The songs were written by Anjaan (3) and Indeevar (2) which were set to music by Shankar-Jaikishan (4) and Roshan (1). Except the one, I found rest of the songs melodious. Two songs have already been covered on the Blog. I present the 3rd song, “Liye Chal Gadiyaa O Mere Mitwaa” to appear on the Blog. The song is written by Indeevar and is rendered by Suman Kalyanpur on the music direction of Roshan. It is a ‘boat song’ (or a raft song?) picturised on Reshma and Sanjeev Kumar when they go for a ride during their romantic sojourn prior to their forthcoming marriage. Incidentally, this is the last released song of Roshan after his death in November 1967.

The film’s soundtrack has three antaras of the song while the audio clip has two antaras. This is a typical Roshan composition with sitar and flute recitals dominating in the prelude. The rhythm pattern used in the song gives a feel of a boat song.

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #

# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Debutant Movie-Chemmeen Lehren -1980)

# Desh ki mitti ki khushboo-5 #

Today’s song is from the ‘1980’ movie ‘Chemmeen Lehren’. This movie was dubbed in Hindi from the original Malayalam movie ‘Chemmeen-1965’. The movie originally made in ‘1965’ in Malayalam language is a milestone movie of the History of Indian Cinema and is considered as the pride of Malayalam Cinema. It was a turning point in the history of Malayalam Cinema. It was directed by Ramu Kariat.

The Malayalam movie was based on the novel by the same name ‘Chemmeen’ written by Thakazi Sivasankara Pillai, first published in 1956. Since this movie was based on the story of Thakazi Sivasankara Pillai an acclaimed literary personality in India and Malayalam Literature, let us have some information about him in brief. He also wrote the screenplay of this movie.

Thakazi Sivasankara Pillai was born on 17th April 1912 at Thakazi (Alleppey, Kerala). He has written many novels, novellas, and short stories in Malayalam which mainly focused on the societal conditions of Kerala of mid-twentieth century, and the lives of the oppressed classes. He started writing at an early age and his first novel came in 1934 which was “Thyagathinu Prathiphalam”. His novel ‘Chemmeen’ was published in 1956 for which he was awarded the prestigious ‘Sahitya Academy Award’ of 1957. His novel ‘Chemmeen’ and subsequently the movie with the same title got him national and international fame. This novel was later translated in more than eighteen languages of the world and it was also adapted for movies made in several countries. Films were also made based on his works like ‘Enippadikal -1964 (Rungs of the Ladder), ‘Anubhavangal Paalichakal-1966’. In 1984 he was awarded with the highest literary award – the ‘Gyanpeeth award’ for his novel ‘Kayar’. He was also the recipient of the third highest civilian honor ‘Padma Bhushan’ of Government of India. Thakazi Sivasankara Pillai passed away on 10th April 1999.

The movie ‘Chemmeen-1965’ made in Malayalam language was the first south Indian movie to win the National Award i.e. the ‘President’s Golden Lotus’ for the best film. The presentation of the movie and its’ artistic and technical values pioneered the growth of Malayalam Cinema in these aspects. It also paved the way for making of more movies based on the literary works in Malayalam language.

The success of this movie was because of coming together of some of the best talents and stalwarts of Indian Cinema. The cinematography of this movie was done by Marcus Bartley (supported by U. Rajagopal). Editing of this movie was done by Hrishikesh Mukherjee. Music for this movie was composed by none other than the legendary music director Salil Chaudhary. Since the readers on the blog are aware about Hrishikesh Mukherjee and Salil Chaudhary let us have brief information about the other lead members of the crew of this movie, which I feel necessary here as a tribute to these great talents who made a deep impact on the audiences with this movie and set new benchmark for regional cinema as well as Indian Cinema.

Marcus Bartley (22.04.1917-14.03.1993) was an Anglo-Indian Cinematographer mainly working for Telugu films. He was born in an Anglo-Indian family of doctors in Yercaud (Tamilnadu). Bartley started as an amateur photographer while he was in school. He later moved to Bombay in 1940 to join as a press photographer for ‘The Times of India’. From there he became a ‘Newsreel Cameraman’ for the British Movietone under the patronage of ‘The Times of India’. He did not have any formal training in photography but learn his craft on the job with sheer dedication and hard work. His first film as cinematographer was ‘Swarga Seema-1945’ with Pragati Studios, Madras. Other than the Telugu language films he also worked for few films in Hindi, Malayalam and Tamil. He worked as a cinematographer for some of the classic films like ‘Shavukaru-1950’, Paathala Bhairavi-1951’, ‘Missamma-1955’, ‘Maya Baazaar-1957’, ‘Gundamma Katha-1962’, ‘Chemmeen-1965’, ‘Ram Aur Shaym-1967, etc. ‘Saathi-1968’, ‘Ghar Ghar Ki Kahaani-1970’, ‘Yahi Hai Zindagi-1977’ and ‘Zindagi Jeene Ke Liye-1984’ are other Hindi movies where he worked for. He won the ‘National Film Award for Best Cinematography’ and the Tamilnadu State Film Award for best Cinematographer in 1970 for “Shanti Nilayam-(Tamil, 1969). He was the first Indian to win the Best Cinematography award ‘Gold Medal’ at the ‘Cannes Film Festival’ for the movie ‘Chemmeen’. His photography for the movie ‘Chemmeen’ was highly praised and it had a major role to bring the essence of the story & canvas on the screen. However he did not receive the national award for this movie. Bartley was known to be a perfectionist and he treated everybody with same respect as he didn’t believe in ‘hierarchies’.

The dialogue writer S.L. Puram Sadanandan (15.04.1928 – 17.09.2005) was a prolific scenarist and major playwright of Malayalam cinema. He worked with the director Ramu Kariat for ‘Chemmeen-1965’ and for ‘Nellu-1974’ (where he had done the adaptation of the story by P. Vatsala for the film).

“Chemmeen Lehren-1980” was directed by Ramu Kariat for ‘Kanmani Films, Cochin’. It was produced by Babu Ismail. The cast of this movie included Sathyan, Sheela, Madhu, Kottarkkara Shridharan Nair, S.P. Pillai, Lata, Adoor Bhawani, Adoor Pankajam, Rajakumari, Eddie, Kottayam Chellappan, J.A.R. Anand, Paravoor Bharathan, Kothamangalam Ali and others. This Hindi movie was passed by Censor Board on 03.09.1980. Story and screenplay of this movie was written by Thakazi Sivasankara Pillai and dialogues were written by S.L. Puram Sadanandan. Lyricist for this movie was Vyalar Rama Verma. Manna Dey, Santha P Nair, Leela P., K.P. Udayabhanu and K.J. Yesudas were the playback singers for this movie. Lyrics for the songs in Hindi are written by lyricist Yogesh.

“Chemmeen-1965” (aka ‘wrath of the sea’ aka ‘shrimp’) tell us a tragic love story against the backdrop of the fishing village and life of a fishing community in a village of Kerala their beliefs, faith and traditions… The Encyclopedia of Indian Cinema mentions it as the ‘melodrama which put Malayalam Cinema on the map of Indian Cinema’.

Here is the gist of the story of this movie –

Chambankunju (S.K. Nair) is a Hindu fisherman who is helped by his daughter Karuthamma (Sheela) in his fishing trade. Karuthamma loves Pareekutty (Madhu) who is a Muslim Trader. However given the traditions Karuthamma cannot marry Pareekutty and is married to a stranger Palani (Sathyan). The village people have doubts over the chastity of Karuthamma because of her affair with Pareekutty. But Sathyan believes that she didn’t have any physical relationship with Pareekutty. The villagers criticize and censured Palani. Once Karuthamma and Pareekutty met and they make love. Palani is out in the sea for fishing and battling with a shark. Palani gets into a whirlpool and dies. This is attributed to the wrath of sea goddess Kadalmma who exacts revenge for the infringement of prevailing chastity codes of the fishermen community.

Mentioning about the presentation of this story on screen and the technical aspects of this film ‘The Encyclopedia of Indian Cinema’ mentions that “Known mainly for the remarkable performances of its entire lead cast (notably Sathyan), the film was made as a sprawling epic matching the scale of one of Malayalam literature’s most famous novels. The editing, done by Hrishikesh Mukherjee virtually as a salvation job for a production that had apparently got out of hand, is extremely tight, but the film still retains the frontier realism of a fishing community battling the forces of nature, myth and uncontrolled emotion as dictated by the script. Novelist Pillai’s highly mystical end in the book, as Palani battles the shark while his wife betrays him, nevertheless remains too complex for predominantly realist melodrama. Composer Salil Chaudhary’s Malayalam debut was remarkably successful, and both songs and background score are integral to the scale of the drama.”

Let us now get to know a brief about the director of this movie i.e. Ramu Kariat (01.02.1927 – 10.02.1979). He was born in Engandiyur, Thrissur- Kerala into a farming family. He started writing poetry and prose when he was still in his teens.

He started his career with the theatre group ‘Kerala People’s Art Club’. He debuted in Malayalam movies by co-directing the movie ‘Thiramal’ with director Vimal Kumar and P.R.S. Pillai. He directed many films from the 1950s to 1970s in Malayalam Cinema and his films were in the broad context of the cultural renaissance spearheaded by the ‘Kerala People’s Art Club’. Many of the movies which he directed had the stories based on the prominent litterateurs of Malayalam language. His movies won several awards and brought accolades for him (e.g. ‘Neelakuyil’, ‘Mudiyanaya Puthran’, and ‘Chemmeen’). Ramu Kariat was the member of the jury at the ‘9th Moscow International Film Festival’ in 1975. He directed around fifteen films in his career.

Coming to the lead actors who acted in this movie now i.e. Sathyan, Sheela, Madhu and K.S. Nair (who plays the role of the father of Karuthamma), they all have been stalwarts in their field and their respective film career where they have left the indelible mark on the audience and had been a reason of joy for their audience and people who liked their acting and love them. However discussing about these actors would take considerable space here. I would have loved to write about them in this article but I am leaving it for future otherwise this article will become a ‘long documentary’ article  So we will have the information about them in other posts with the remaining songs of this movie.

Let us now enjoy the song where we can see fishermen setting out for the sea for fishing and on the other side Karuthamma and her ‘sahelis’ where they are singing the story of the ‘myth of the sea’ in this song. The fishermen on the other side are singing and ready to face any challenge in the sea. Today’s song is sung by Suresh Wadkar, Antara Chaudhary and chorus. Lyrics are by Yogesh and music is composed by Salil Chaudhary.

(Sources of information – ‘The Encyclopedia of Indian Cinema’ by Ashish Rajadhyaksha & Paul Willemen, ‘History of Indian Cinema’ by Renu Saran, ‘Wikipedia’, and several articles available online media related to the movie ‘Chemmeen’.)

Let us welcome ‘Chemmeen Lehren-1980’ on the blog. I was unable to note correct words at many places which I would request knowledgeable readers to kindly provide please. I could not find the Hindi dubbed version of this movie online, however, the movie is available in Malayalam language online.

Enjoy the song ‘pennaale pennaale’  (i.e. in Malayalam) we will now have the Hindi dubbed version of this song which is a nice song to listen to …

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No.80
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years ago (19 April 2013), eight songs from eight different movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Post No Song Title Name of the movie Remarks
7927 Uthho uthho hey Bharat Bharat Milaap(1942) 3 songs covered out of 11 by now
7928 Ab Raam raaj ki aage suno kahaani Jai Hanuman (1948) 2 songs covered out of 12 by now

7933 Tosey naina lagaa ke main haari Ishaaraa (1964) Movie YIPPEED by now
7934 Baar baar haan bolo yaar haan Lagaan (2001) 4 songs covered out of 7 by now

We observe that two movies (out of eight) whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (on 19 april 2013) have since been YIPPEED in the blog. So we have six unYIPPEED movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (19 April 2023).

That date ten years ago happened to be Ramnavami. On that occasion, a couple of Lord Ram related songs were covered from Lord Ram related movies.

“Bharat Milaap”(1942) was one such movie. This movie y Vijay Bhatt for Prakash Pictures, Bombay. The movie had Durga Khote(as Kaikeyee),Shobhna Samarth(as Sita),Shahu Modak (as Bharat), Prem Adib (as Sri Ram), Vimla Vashisth(as Manthara), Umakant Desai(as Lakshman), Nimbalkar(as Dashrath), Shantabai Kothare(as Kaushalya), Pande(as Vashistha), Ratnamala (as Madavi-Rajkumar Bharat`s Wife), Amirbai Karnataki(as Kewat Patni), Kelkar(as Sumanthra), Vasant Kaanse(as Nishadh Raj), Kaushalya (as Rajkavi`s daughter), Madhusudan(as Rajkavi`s son), Chiman Seth(as Shatrughna), Indumati Pathak(as Shrutikeerthi), Premkumari(as Urmila-Lakshman`s wife), Athavale(as Raj jyothishi),Gadadhar Sharma(Rajkavi), Sukumar(as Kewat), Rammurthy (as Saarathi), Anusuya Bai Jadhav(as Sumitra), Seetharam, Teekaram etc in it.

The song takes place when Lord Ram (Prem adib), along with Sita (Shobhana Samarth)and Laxman (Shahu Modak) have started their vanwas. While proceeding south, they come across River Ganga and they need to cross the mighty river. It is here that they meet the Kevat(boatman) and his wife. This song takes place at that time. The song is lip synced by the Kevat (played by Sukumar) and his wife (played by Amirbai Karnataki). The song is sung by an unidentified male voice and Amirbai Karnataki. I request our knowledgeable readers to help identify the male voice. Is it sung by the male actor himself like how the female character, the one and only Amirbai Karnataki has sung for herself ?

Lyrics are by pt Indra Chandra. Music is composed by Shankar Rao Vyas.

Lyrics of the song and other details were sent to me by Prakashchandra.

The oldest of these unYIPPEED movies is “Naiyya”(1947).

“Naiyya”(1947) was directed by Aslam Noori for Mohan Pictures, Bombay. The movie had Mazhar Khan, Munawwar Sultana, Ashraf Khan, Anwar, Shehzadi, Suman, Balakram, Siraj etc in it.

The movie had six songs in it. Three songs have been covered so far.

Here is the fourth song from “Naiyya”(1947) to appear in the blog. The song is sung by Master Ramesh. HFGK is silent about the lyricist of the song. Music is composed by anil Biswas.

Only audio of the song are available. I request our Knowledgeable readers to throw light on the picturisation of the song.

#the Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————
(A tribute to lyricist Nida Fazli on his ‘Remembrance Day’)

Today we pay our tributes to lyricist Nida Fazli on his ‘seventh’ ‘Remembrance Anniversary.

He was born on 12th October’1938 and he passed away on 08th February’2016.

As a tribute to him today on his ‘Remembrance Day’ I presenting a song penned by him for the movie ‘Naakhuda-1981’.

This movie has six songs and all the six songs were written by Nida Fazli.

We have some beautiful compositions composed by Khayyam Saab to the equally beautiful lyrics by Nida Fazli in this movie.

“Naakhuda-1981” was directed by Dilip Naik for ‘Yashraj Enterprises’. It was produced by Yash Chopra.

It had Kulbhushan Kharbanda, Raj Kiran, Madan Puri, Yunus Parvez, Mac Mohan, Bharat Kapoor, and Javed Khan. They were supported by Sudhir Dalvi, Vikas Anand, Mahaan, Murlidhar, Bandini, Nandini, Umesh, Murari, Chand, Raj Verma, Chandu, Pardesi, Madhu Malhotra, Amarnath, Rajesh, Rauf Khan and others.

This movie introduced Swaroop Sampat. Asha Sachdev had a guest appearance in this movie.

This film was written by Mushtaq Jalili. Editing of this movie was done by B. Mangeshkar.
(Ranjan Suryawanshi was the chief assistant editor and Deepak Sareen was the chief assistant director for this movie).

This movie was passed by Censor Board on 17.02.1981.

As mentioned above this movie has six songs written by Nida Fazli and music for five songs was composed by Khayyam .
One song was composed by Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan and this song had the voices of Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Mujahad Ali and chorus.
The songs had voices of Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsle, Mahendra Kapoor, Nitin Mukesh, Jagjit Kaur, Pamela Chopra, and S.K. Mahaan.

Following is the list of songs this movie had.

S.No. Song Title Singer/s Posted On
01. Allaah beli…sahaara hai naakhuda Mahendra Kapoor, chorus
02 Tujhe maroongi phoolon ki maar sajna Mahendra Kapoor, Asha Bhonsle
03 Suno ik baat bolen Lata Mangeshkar, Nitin Mukesh 28.09.2014
04 Rangeen hai fazaayen… aa jaa yaar habibi Mahendra Kapoor, Jagjit Kaur, Pamela Chopra, S.K. Mahaan
05 Tumhaari palkon ki chilmanon mein Lata Mangeshkar, Nitin Mukesh 27.06.2020
06 Ali ali shaah e mardaan ali Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan, Mujahad Ali, chorus

Two songs from this movie ‘Naakhuda-1981’ have been posted on the blog earlier as mentioned in the above table.

Today’s song is sung by Mahendra Kapoor. Sudhir Dalvi is seen lip-syncing this song on screen.

Lyrics noted are as per the audio link (which is a longer link and may have repetition of lines of chorus and stanza lines too).

The picturisation of the song is shown in the background of the movie titles where we can see Sudhir Dalvi (as a ‘Fakir’) and other devotees (?) sailing in a boat.

The song relates the ‘captain of the boat/ship’ – ‘Naakhuda’ to God and says that he is the sailor, captain, rescuer, and director like the God in the hour of ‘crises. He is the commander of the ‘fate’ or ‘destiny’ of the travellers in the boat and also he is as great as God and treat all equally with love and shower his love on all irrespective of their caste, creed and religion.

Let us enjoy this wonderful song…

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Missing movies of 1973-12)
——————————————-——————————
(A tribute to Ramesh Deo)

Today(30 January 2023) we introduce the movie “Hum Junglee Hain” from the year ‘1973’ on the blog.

Today 30th January’2023 is the ninety-seventh birth anniversary of yesteryears’ film actor Ramesh Deo.
He was born on 30th January’1926. If he would have been alive today he would have turned ninety-six today. He passed away last year on 2nd February’2022.

In his long career in Hindi and Marathi film industry he acted in many movies, and also in Marathi Stage Plays.

We have fond memories of his roles like Dr Kulkarni in ‘Anand’ and many other character roles and especially the negative roles he played in the Hindi movies.

I am not going into the details of his filmography in this post. Our Respected Shri Sudhir ji had done a detailed post on Ramesh Deo last year which I would like every ‘movie-buff’ should read. This post can be read here.

Ramesh Deo was a part of many movies of the ‘seventies’ when we were growing watching ‘Hindi movies’. He had a played a role in today’s movie, where I guess his role was of a ‘second lead’ in this movie. I have never watched this movie till now and I was not aware about its song till the preparation of this post. Though, I am yet to listen to the other songs from this movie. I had come across this song about a month back and since then I was holding it for presenting it on this occasion today.

On screen it is Ramesh Deo performing on this beautiful song with Vijaya Shree.

Here is a brief about the today’s movie.

“Hum Junglee Hain” was directed by P. Subramaniyam for ‘Rani Productions, Madras’.

This movie was produced by V.C. Jain and G.C. Lalwan.

The cast of this movie included Kiran Kumar, Manish, Sapru, Paintal, Birbal, Aparna Choudhury, Kavish, Shanti, Viraj, Brahmachari, Santosh Kumar, Annamma and others, with Ramesh Deo and Vijaya Shree.

Anand and Cho were introduced in this movie.

This movie was written by C.L. Kavish. Story of this movie was by P. Subramaniyam who also directed this movie.

Hrishikesh Mukherjee had done the supervision for editing of this movie. Editing was done by Gopalakrishnan and Babu.

This movie was passed by Censor Board on 22.11.1973.

As the title of this movie suggests it is based on a story involving ‘Jungle’ and the ‘animal’ there. Even there is a song in this movie ‘haathhi ke daant le lo’…
The titles of this movie mention that this movie has been shot in the ‘Jungles’ of ‘Kerala’.

This movie has seven sound tracks including six songs. All the songs for this movie were written by Vedpal Verma who also composed the songs of this movie.
Background music for this movie was composed by Pugazendi.

Here is the detail of songs in this movie :-

SNo Song Title Singer/s
01 Jab se dekha hai tumko Mohd Rafi, Usha Mangeshkar
02 Laa laa …main mehndi rachaaungi Asha Bhonsle
03 Haathhi ke daant le lo P. B. Shrinivas, L.R. Eswari
04 Baaton baaton mein mere dil ko… Mohd Rafi, Usha Mangeshkar
05 Khilaa re … chaand khilaa taare khile Mahendra Kapoor, Usha Mangeshkar, chorus
06 Laa laa … naa mehndi rachaa saki Asha Bhonsle
07 Dance Music

The titles of this movie mentioned Asha Bhonsle, Mohammad Rafi, Mahendra Kapoor, P.B. Srinivas, and L.R. Eswari as playback singers for this movie.

That means the titles of this movie does not mention the name of Usha Mangeshkar as playback singer for this movie.

However HFGK Vol-V (1971-1980) gives credit to Usha Mangeshkar for three songs in this movie. Today’s song is one of them.

The audio-video links of the today’s song and HFGK Vol-V (1971-1980) mention Mohd Rafi and Usha Mangeshkar as singers for the today’s song.

As mentioned above on screen it is Ramesh Deo and Vijaya Shree performing on this song. I think this song is a nice song and it should be a better-known song. But I do not remember to have heard it even on radio over these years.

With today’s song this movie ‘Hum Junglee Hain-1973’ makes its debut on the blog today.

Let us remember Ramesh Deo and pay him our tributes today and listen to this song picturised on him.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No. 9
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years back viz on 22 January 2013, six songs from six movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Blog post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
7383 Main dekhoon tohe din raati Naina (1953) 3 songs covered out of 7 by now
7384 Jaani re hum jaani re Saanwariya(1949) 8 songs covered out of 10 by now
7385 Sab din hot na ek samaan Senapati(1961) 2 songs covered out of 7 by now
7386 Ham pyaar ki baazi haare Sazaa (1951) Movie YIPPEED with this song
7387 Mera antar ek mandir hai tera Tere Mere Sapne (1971) Movie YIPPEED by now
7388 Maine tumko chaaha pehli baar Double Cross (1973) 2 songs covered out of 5 by now

We observe that two movies (out of six movies) whose songs were covered ten years ago on this date (viz 22 January 2013) have since been YIPPEED. That leaves us with four movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (22 January 2023).

Three of the four movies that are eligible for Blog Ten Year challenge have already been taken up today and their songs covered in the blog.

The final BTYC eligible movie of the day is “Double Cross”(1973). The movie was produced by Yash Kohli and directed by Gogi Anand for Pasupti Pictures Private Limited, Bombay. The movie had Vijay Anand, Rekha and Asha Sachdev in lead roles. The movie also had Devkumar, Madan Puri, Rajeeta Thakur, Kuljeet, Sulochana(Ruby), Mohan Choti, Sunder, Indra(Indira) Bansal, Capt.Manmohan, Polson, V.Gopal, Birbal, Raj Kishore, Habib, Mama, Ramesh, Lala Nazir, Jullien, Sammi, Shanti, D.Kumar, Dhanna, Baby Nalina, Sujata, Ratna, Zarina, Marie, Pushpa Varma, Parvati Shirodkar etc in it. David and Manmohan had made guest appearances.

Today is the 89th birth anniversary of Vijay Anand (22 January 1934-23 February 2004). He not only acted as hero in this movie, he was also involved in the movieas screenplay writer, Dialogue writing and Editing !

The song under discussion is a highly appropriate song for the occasion. The dialogues that precede the song has Vijay Anand breaking this news to Rekha that it was his birthday today. And then the duo break into this song in celebration. 🙂

Here is this song. It is sung by Asha Bhonsle and Kishore Kumar. Majrooh Sultanpuri is the lyricist. Music is composed by R D Burman.

It is a song that I am listening for the first time, some 50 years after this song was created. It sounds as fresh and lively as it must have sounder 50 years ago. That is what is called timeless music.

Lyrics of the song and other details were sent to me by Prakashchandra.

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
————————————————————————
# Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Missing movies of 1973-5)
——————————————-——————————

Today we introduce the movie “Pyaasi Nadi” from the year ‘1973’ on the blog.

It was directed by Shankar Kinagi for ‘Ishwar Art International’.

This movie was produced by M.N. Bakia.

This movie introduced actor Vikram and actress Vani Ganpati (as mentioned in the titles of this movie).
It also had Gulshan Arora, Prashant (in special appearance), Shahina and Helen. They were supported by Bipin Gupta, Asit Sen, Murad, V. Gopal, Chandrakant Gokhale, Tribak Joshi, Narsi Patel, Albert, Barot, Daksh Dave, Puroshottam Shah, Himanshu Patel, Ashok Khanna, Vasu Naik, Chimanlal, Shantilal, Jagdish, Shrimati Bhasin, Kewal, Jadhav, Ramesh Jani, Seema Kapoor, Shefali, Hansa Chokshi, Urmila Bhatt, Bhola, Das, Raj, Ravi, Kallu Khan and others.

Story of this movie was written by Ranu and Screenplay was written by Ram Kelkar. Dialogues of this movie were written by Gulshan Jalalabadi and Ram Kelkar.
A.Javeed was the Dialogue Instructor of this movie. Editing of this movie was done by Ramrao Ghatke.

This movie was passed by Censor Board on 03.08.1973.

This movie has five songs. They were written by Gulshan Bawra (two songs), Mahendra Dehalvi (one song) and Tajdar Taj (two songs).

Music for this movie was composed by Ratandeep-Hemraaj.

Here is the list of songs from this movie.

SNo Song Title Lyricist Singer/s
01 Laakh yugon ka ek baras ho Tajdar Taj Asha Bhonsle
02 O re sajanwa, saagar mein kyun aate toofaan Tajdar Taj Mukesh, Chandrani Mukherjee
03 Zaalim ne pilaa de hai Mahendra Dehalvi Asha Bhonsle
04 Three six, two four, .. phone karo aur Gulshan Bawra Asha Bhonsle, chorus
05 Meri jaan kah ke log Gulshan Bawra Chandrani Mukherjee

Today’s song is sung by Chandrani Mukherjee and Mukesh. It is lip-synced on screen by Vani Ganpati and Vikram. It is a sweet song happening on a boat sailing in a river.

I am not aware of the context in which this song takes place happens, but in the video of the song Vani Ganpati utters some dialogues for Vikram and that can give us some clue, I think.

Lyrics for today’s song are written by Tajdar Taj and music is composed by Ratandeep-Hemraaj.

Let us listen to today’s duet in the voices of Mukesh and Chandrani Mukherjee now…

With today’s song this movie ‘Pyaasi Nadi-1973’ makes its debut on the blog.

Lyrics

o de de tu sahaara
o maanjhi
kinaara bana ke baahon ko
dilon ke milne se ae
zamaana jaltaa hai ae
ho mohe dar laage
ye bairi naa roke
hamaari raahon ko

o o o o o o
duniya se dar ke
main naa rahoongi
saare bandhan tod doongi
teri chaah mein ae
o ri sajaniya
o ri sajaniya
kya hoti hai
saawan ki pehchaan

tere mere samaan
ho raama ho ho o

maanjhi re ae ae
O maanjhi ee ee

mere man aangan pe
tu aise barsi hai
o jaise dharti pe ye kaali
niraali ghataa rimjhim barse

mera dil kehtaa hai
main teri hoon sainyyaan
o aise lag jaaun
jaise
nadi ka milan ho saagar se
ho o o o o
waada kiya to
karke nibhaana
phool ban ke muskuraana
meri raah mein ae ae

o re sajanwa aa

pyaasi dhaara
chaand ko chaahe
tere mere samaan
