Today’s song is from a re-made costume film from the South – Nishan-1949.

Besides being a Musical films’ year, 1949 was also an year when the South Indian filmmakers, especially S.S.Vasan, became active after the film Chandralekha-1948 became a successful one and brought in huge profits. It became an attraction for the filmmakers in the South. They understood that the Hindi film market was many times bigger than the Southern film market and that it was possible to capture a part of it with their south made Hindi films.

Initially, in the early era, Bombay was the biggest centre for film making. When the Talkie films started, other smaller centres in those times, like Lahore and the South, woke up. For Lahore, language was not a problem and so there was a traffic between Lahore and Bombay film people for work and technology. Thus few centres for film production prospered in Lahore-like Pancholi and Shorey etc.

Today’s song is from a social film, Rangeela-1953.

The film was produced and directed by Master Bhagwan for his own banner Bhagwan Art Productions, Bombay.The cast included Bhagwan, Poornima,Vivek, badri prashad, Baburao pehalwan, heera Sawant, Madhav Kale, Kammo, Cuckoo, Indira and a host of Bhagwan’s regular artists. Unlike other films of Bhagwan, C.Ramchandra did not give music to this film as he was busy with the film Anarkali-1953. So, Jamal Sen was the Music Director. Though a gifted and talented musician, he was known to be an unlucky Music Director.

Hello everyone!

It has been SUCH a long time since my last post here that I’ve forgotten how to even write posts.

So this one will most probably be a short one, unlike my past marathon posts.
I say “most probably” because I might intend a short post, but once I start writing, my thoughts end up having a life of their own. I would be an editor’s worst nightmare. 😊

Anyway, let’s see how it goes.

Ok, so the main reason for this post is a sort of coincidence that I’m taking as a sign to make me write.

Today’s song is from the Cult film Ram Rajya-1943.

This is one film which I must have seen many times. I was too young when it was released, but in its “n’th run during the 1949 to 1954 period, I led the groups of seniors in the family to see the film several times. My friends used to laugh at me and ask if I was not bored. Honestly, I was never tired of seeing this film.

Hullo Atuldom

June 22nd 1965, a young ‘approximately’ 18 year old girl, from a small town in Andhra Pradesh, got married and relocated to the metropolitan city called Bombay. After about 23 years, another young girl ‘approximately’ 22 years old, from Bombay got married & relocated to an ‘even more’ small (i.e. smaller than the Andhra Pradesh town mentioned in the opening sentence) town in Tamil Nadu. I mean a case of ‘ulti Ganga’. But we shall not talk of the second girl in this post, the subject of this post is the first girl.
