Today’s song is from an obscure film Vakil Saheb-1943.

The second world war started in 1939 and ended in 1945. The effects of wartime started being felt to people in the world, whether involved or not in the war. Shortages of essentials due to transport restrictions and Petrol shortages were acute when the war continued unabated and spread to almost every part of the world. Major powers like England , Japan, Europe, Russia and America dragged countries which were under their rule or influence and those who were friendly to them. This included India too.

Like all other industries, the film industry was also affected by the war fever,in India. The rule ‘where there is action, there is reaction’ applies here too. As such, in general, society affected films and then films reflected the society in their stories. The government not only brought strict censorship but also a drastic cut in the availability of Raw film allocation. In addition the government announced a concession in price of Raw film and sanction of extra quota to those producers who made films supporting British War Efforts. To avail this facility, few films like Lieutenant-1944, Panna-1944 and Badi Maa-1945 were made. Actress Geeta Nizami even got a prize of Rs.9000/- from the Government for her acting in the film Panna-1944 !

1943 was an year in which the II world war was in full swing. Both sides were almost equal. The effects of the war on India were… it faced the infamous Bengal Famine, caused by the war profiteering. Controls on film production were tightened by the Government. I.P.T.A. became operative with its first staged play “Navaanna”. Film “Kismet” became one of the biggests Hits ever. V.Shantaram’s Rajkamal Kalamandir debuted with “Shakuntala”, as did Mehboob with his film “Najma”. Government made showing of Newsreel before any film mandatory. Film “Raj Nartaki”s english version “The Court Dancer” was exhibited in the USA, first time for an Indian film.

1943 produced 105 Hindi films, the highest number during the war years, 1939 to 1945. Many landmark and musical films appeared in this year giving a respite to the war torn audience of Indian Cinema. Let us take a look at some of these films.

Film “Bhaichara” had music by the only other “Sursagar” musician – Himangshu Dutt ( the more well known being the singer Jagmohan Sursagar).

C.Ramchandra had his first musical hit with film “Bhakta Raj”, made by Jayant Desai productions.

Film “Gauri” from Ranjit became Monica Desai’s first Hindi film in Bombay. It was a very successful film with songs by Khemchand Prakash, based on Bangla Folk tunes.

Kanan Devi gave some sweet songs in the film “Hospital”, under Kamal Dasgupta’s baton.

Bombay Talkies film “Hamari Baat” was the last film in which Devika Rani acted. Anil Biswas was the composer.

Music Director Khurshid Anwar brought Gauhar Sultana from Lucknow to sing some songs in the film “Ishara”. Naushad'[s musical film “Kanoon” had some good Suraiya and Shyam duets.

Film “Kashinath” was Nitin Bose’s last film in New Theatres, after he developed differences with B.N.Sircar.

Anil Biswas gave his career best musical Hit film “Kismet”- the longest running film from Bombay Talkies.

Nurjehan’s musical film “Nadaan” was popular with songs from composer K.Datta. Director Mehboob made his first film “Najma”, under his own banner Mehboob productions.

Yet one more musical from Naushad- film “Namaste”.

At last a musical hit for composer S.N.Tripathi- “Panghat” from Prakash Pictures. Rajkumari Shukla sang her only Hindi song in this film;. (the film was remade as Chitchor-1976).

Film “Paraya Dhan” had music by Bengal’s famous musician Gyan Prakash Ghosh. Deena Pathak sang her only 2 songs in this film as Deena Sanghavi.

Ghulam Haider makes merry again with Shamshad hit songs in film “Poonji” from Pancholi, Lahore.

One more superhit film – “Ram Rajya” from Prakash Pictures had very good songs from composer Shankar Rao Vyas. Saraswati Rane gave 2 melodious songs. Yashwant Joshi and Yashwant Nikam sang the famous song ” Bharat ki ek Sannari ki katha”. “Ram Rajya” had also a distinction as the only Hindi film that was seen by Mahatma Gandhi, on 2-6-1944.
( before this Gandhi had seen ” Mission to Moscow-43″ an English film, in Wardha, according to The Hindu (Kathmandu Ed.) dt.8-2-2010). The film had early songs by Manna Dey also.

Naushad was in full swing with his third Musical “Sanjog”, where Suraiya gave playback to Mehtab, the Heroine.

Vasant Desai gave excellent songs in the hit film “Shakuntala” by V.Shantaram.

“Hospital”- excellent songs by Kanan Devi.

“Kanoon”- another hit from Naushad.

“Mera Khwab”- MD Ghulam Mohammed’s Debut film

“Najma”- Mehboob Khan’s first film, on Muslim society.

“Nurse”- Gyan Dutt gave an excellent song of Rajkumari-‘ Vo gaye nahin’

“Prithvi Vallabh”- A big budget costume drama made by Minerva, based on story of K.M.Munshi. It had songs by Minakshi Shirodkar.

“Tansen”- Saigal’s first film in Bombay. Khurshid matches him song by song.

“Taqdeer”- Nargis aka Baby Fatima debuted as an adult. However her name comes third in the credits, after Motilal and Chandramohan.

Film Vakil Saheb-1943 was directed by Mohan Sinha (grandfather of actress Vidya Sinha) and the music was provided by Annasaheb Mainkar and P. Madhukar. The cast included Madhuri, Trilok Kapoor, Ghulam rasool, Rajkumari Shukla, Shehzadi jr., Badri Prashad, Mumtaz Begum (younger sister of singer Mubarak Begum), Khan Mastana etc.

Today’s song is composed by P.Madhukar. He was one of those Music experts who tried their hand at Hindi films. He gave music to only this one film and then returned to his original expertise – classical vocal and instrumental music in Marathi.

Madhukar Gangadhar Pednekar, (27 February 1916 – 20 July 1967) was popularly known as P. Madhukar. He was a master in playing Harmonium. He was a harmonium player and noted music director. He composed music for Marathi, Hindi and Telugu feature films.

P. Madhukar was born in a family of musicians on 27 February 1916 in Bombay, Bombay Presidency, undivided India, now Mumbai, Maharashtra. He began his initial training in harmonium at the age of eight under his maternal uncle, Shankarrao Rajapurkar (Gunijan). His rigorous practice and talent won him appreciation when he received a gold medal from the noted vocalist Sawai Gandharva. Later, Madhukarrao started taking lessons from Bahulkar, a well-
known harmonium player of Mumbai.

P. Madhukar’s passion to attain the best led him to becoming a disciple of Annasaheb Mainker of Sangli, a harmonium player and noted music director. Madhukarrao benefited immensely from his association with Annasaheb Mainkar. Belonging to a wealthy family, Mainkar had spent a huge fortune in pursuing his love for music. Luminaries like actor-singer and theatre producer Bal Gandharva, tabla player Ahmed Jan Thirakwa and sarangi player Qadir Baksh Khan often stayed at Annasaheb’s residence. Recitals featuring such reputed artistes left an indelible mark on Madhukarrao and enriched his playing. He was also influenced greatly by Mainkar’s progressive thinking, his imagination and his quest for experimentation in music. Mainkar had made a departure from the routine parameters of harmonium playing and introduced several new techniques in his playing.

P. Madhukar also assisted Mainkar in composing music for cinema & gradually became a successful music director himself. He composed music for Marathi, Hindi and Telugu feature films like Chokha Mela, Chaliteel Shejari, Vakil Saheb, Dharampatni, Savitri, among others and also composed music for theatre. In c. 1934, he was employed by His Master’s Voice Company.

P. Madhukar’s playing displayed unimaginable speed and forcefulness, which were a result of his natural technique and the lightness with which his fingers were positioned on the keyboard. He had diligently practised special paltas to gain total command over the instrument. He had also composed unique gats, which he practised at various speeds.

P. Madhukar’s consummate skill rendered it possible for him to accompany vocalists in keeping with the stylistic features of their gharanas. At ease with any raag and taal being presented, as well as with any tempo, form of music or key that the vocalist chose. Madhukarrao would also add some of his musical ideas to the performance.

P. Madhukar improvised on and experimented with the art of playing harmonium and devised a unique way of presenting the instrument on the concert platform. He incorporated various phrases like dir-dir of the sitar and draan of veena and played different sitar jhala patterns on the harmonium. There was therefore a more lively combination of tantkari and gayaki in his performance style. His command over laya was equally good.

Harmonium playing became second nature to him and the magic in his fingers permitted him to achieve what would otherwise have seemed impossible. He composed many gats for harmonium solo and repertoire, which reflected his keen aesthetic sense and understanding of the intricacies and finer points of art music. He was well versed with minute aspects of vocal music like alaap, upajang, gamakang, taan, boltaan and could reproduce and express the same with precision and ease. His taanpaltas have broadened the vision of harmonium playing.

P. Madhukar also made a thorough study of gayaki, raga rules and shrutis, and regarged Acharya Brihaspati as his guru in matters related to theory. A devotee of the Kirana gayaki, he looked up to Ganpatbuva Behre as a mentor.

P. Madhukar was an extraordinarily intelligent, imaginative and hard-working artiste. An outstanding researcher, he had mastered the art of tuning and making the instrument. In his efforts at establishing a respectable place for harmonium in the world of music and at enhancing its functionality, he had tried to produce meend by placing a string in response to every note in the instrument. Much before synthesisers became popular in India, Madhukarrao attempted to adapt modern technology by electronically displaying the notation of music played on the harmonium. His experiments with introducing electric attachments to several instruments had met with success. He was one of the earliest musicians to have introduced the clavioline to North Indian art music, which he had bought for a sum of Rs. 6000/-.

Madhukarrao played many instruments & started a music class at his residence, called Tansen Sangeet Vidyalaya. His harmonium demonstrations had been recorded by the committee appointed by the All India Radio for reassessing the decision to ban harmonium from AIR broadcasts.

P. Madhukar died on 20 July 1967, but left behind noted disciples like Anant Kemkar, Tulsidas Borkar, Vishwanath Pendharkar, Chandrachud Vasudeo, Anant Rane, Datta Jogdande, Lavekar, Laxman Kanse and Arondekar. These disciples have propagated his style and have in turn trained a large number of students, many of who are rapidly gaining recognition on the contemporary concert circuit.

( based on information sourced from Dr. N. R. Marulkar, Gomantakiya Sangeetkar Swarmanch, Madgaon (Goa),Marathi Chitrapat sangeetkar Kosh by Madhu Potdar and my notes).

Director Mohan Sinha directed 32 films from “Fashionable India”-1935 to “Shaan E Hind”-1960. As a Lyricist, he also wrote 62 songs in 7 films. Today’s song is also written by Mohan Sinha. Its mukhda reminds us of an old film ‘Charnon ki Dasi’ made in 1941 and also in 1959. However, its similarity ends there only.


Song- Charnon ki daasi hoon main (Vakil Saheb)(1943) Singer- Raj Kumari, Lyricist-Mohan Sinha, MD- P Madhukar

Lyrics

‘Dev Kanya’ (1963) was a directed by SN Tripathi for Sur Sagar Chitra, Bombay. This movie had Mahipal, Anita Guha, BM Vyas, Krishna Kumari, Babu Raje, Mukri etc in it.

The film  had seven songs in it. Two songs have been covered in the past. Interestingly, Asha Bhonsle was the only female playback singer in the movie but there were as many as three male playback singers in the movie. Each of them had sung one duet each with Asha Bhonsle. The duets of Mukesh and Rafi with Asha Bhonsle have been covered in the past.

Here is the third (and final) duet from the movie. It is sung by Mahendra Kapoor and Asha Bhonsle.

BD Mishra is the lyricist. Music is composed by SN Tripathi. This rare song is quite a catchy song and it appears like a dance song.

Only audio of the song is available. It would be interesting to know why three duets in the voices of three male singers were recorded with Asha Bhonsle being the common female voice. It could well be that the lead actress playing Dev Kanya sings there three duets with three different suitors. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the movie as well as on the picturisation of this song.

————————————————————————————–

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

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.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2010-2020) – Song No. 35
—————————————————————————

This date ten year ago, viz 8 June 2010 was a relatively prolific day by the then prevailing standards of the blog. As many as four songs were covered that day. Here are their details:

Song Movie title-Year Remarks
Nadi kinaare baithke aao Jaageerdaar (1937) 3 songs covered out of 10. The movie made its debut on this date.
Bhar bhar aayen ankhiyaan

Samrat Chandragupta (1958) The movie has been YIPPEED by now
Aapne yoon hi dillagi ki thi

Mehndi Lagi Mere Haath (1962) The movie has been YIPPEED by now
Aao jhoome gaayen

Paraaya Dhan(1971) The movie has been YIPPEED by now

One can see that four songs from four different decades were covered on 8 june 2010. It was my standard practice in the past to cover around six songs in a day, all belonging to different decades. This practice had become difficult to follow during the last months of 2009 and initial months of 2010 because of disruption due to my transfer. By June 2010, I was finally settled in Nagpur and I was trying to regain the glory days of the blog. And this date was the one when I perhaps decided to shift gears and press the accelerator.

It is to be noticed that the first song of the day was from the decade of 1930s. 1930s was the earliest decade of HFM. Songs of that decade were difficult to come by and so very few songs of that decade were covered by that time. Sudhir Jee has the details. According to him:

On 8th june 2010, the fiilm “Jaagirdaar” of 1937 had made its debut. It was the 690th day of the blog. “Jaagirdaar” was only the 11th film from the 1930s to appear on our blog. And the song was only the 19th song from that decade. Almost two years into this endeavor, and the blog had just scratched the surface of the decade of 1930s. Today that count stands at 210 films and 443 songs from the years 1931-1940. Just for additional information, the approximate total availability of the Hindi film songs of 1930s in public domain is in the range of around 1100.

So we have added considerably to the songs tally of 1930s in the blog and by now we have about 40 % of all available songs of 1930s in the blog.

Coming back to “Jaageerdaar”(1937), this movie was directed by Mehboob Khan for Sagar Film Company, Bombay. The movie had Surendra nath(B.A.L.L.B), Motilal, Bibbo, Maya Bannerjee, Ramchandra Marathe, Yaqoob, Pandey, Sankata, Ziya Sarhadi, Pesi Patel, Bhudho Advani, Mani, Jaaver Bhai Qaiser, Soli Kapadia, Miss Gulzar, Rajkumari etc in it.

The movie had ten songs in it. Three songs have been covered in the past. Here are the details of the three songs covered in the blog:-

S N Song Post number in blog Date of posting
1 Nadi kinaare baithke aao 2521 8-June-2010
2 Pujaari morey mandir mein aao 7951 22-April-2013
3 Baanke bihaari bhool na jaana 13656 14-October-2017

The movie made its debut on this date ten years ago. As “Blog ten year challenge”, here is another song from the movie. It is sung by Rajkumari. Zia Sarhadi is the lyricist. Music is composed by Anil Biswas.

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

Lyrics of this song were sent to me by Prakashchandra.

Today (31 january 2018) is the last day of the first month on the year 2018. The new year began just 31 days ago. It already appears to most people that first january 2018 was long long ago. 🙂 Most people have already given up on their new year resolutions by now, assuming that they actually made such resolutions in the first place.

I am far more disciplined and determined as far as sticking to my resolutions are concerned. My two new year resolutions for the blog were –
(a) to post one “debutant”” movie song every day.
(b) to post one YIPPEE movie song every day.

We have so far managed to stick to our resolutions.

Our regulars have been a great help in the cause of introducing “debutant” movies to the blog as some of the articles contributed by them are the first song of movies. There are still a couple of thousand movies that are not yet covered in the blog so introducing “debutant” songs on a regular basis is a resolution that one can stick to without much problem.

The “YIPPEE” resolution is rather more challenging. It basically means covering ALL the songs of a movie. While it is possible to get a few songs for many movies, getting ALL the songs of a movie is a tough challenge. There may be some movies where all songs are easily available, but most movies turn out to be such where one or two songs are quite rare and are unavailable online. Locating these elusive songs becomes a challenge – and a time consuming challenge at that. The fact that we now a days post only about three or four songs a day, and not six or seven as was the case in the past, can be partially explained by the fact that we give considerable thought to YIPPIABLE movies these days, which was not the case in the past.

I have a list of movies that have just one or two songs left in them. So at any given day, I have several movies to pick from for YIPPYing. This choice sometimes comes to our rescue. For instance, it turns out that not one but two movies with suitable final song that we thought were YIPPiable on 26 January turned out to contain another song in them. Still, I was able to post another appropriate song from another movie that turned out to be the YIPPEE movie of that day. I in fact had one more movie as YIPPEE backup for republic day. 🙂

While posting YIPPEE movies daily, we cannot neglect those movies that have three or four songs left in them. We need to regularly cover these songs so that we have more number of movies with just one song left so that we can have a steady supply of YIPPiable movies.

The final song of some of these YIPPIable movies are so great that I am tempted to hold them back. The song under question is one such song. This song is from “Gauhar” (1953).

“Gauhar” (1953) was directed by F H Hasan for All Indian Pictures production, Bombay. The movie had Bina Rai, Rehman, Agha, Vijaylaxmi, Chaman Puri, Charlie, Cuckoo etc in it.

This movie had six songs in it. Five of these songs have been covered in the blog in the past. This sixth and final song is a rare song, and one that sounds like an archtypical puraani film ka song. I have liked this song so much that I toyed with the idea of this song being utilised as a century song, and even as a thousandth song for the blog. But finally I have decided that we cannot hold on to our YIPPIable songs just like that. Sooner or later we have to cover these songs.

So finally, I am letting go of this superb song from “Gauhar” (1953). This song is sung by Shamshad Begum and Sudha Malhotra. Shakeel Badayuni is the lyricist. Music is composed by Ghulam Mohammad.

Only the audio of this song is available. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the picturisation of this song.

With this song,”Gauhar” (1953) joins the list of movies that have all their songs covered in the blog.
