Today’s song is from a religious film Ishwar Bhakti-1951. The other name for this film was ” Shani Mahatmya”.

There are certain words/phrases in our religion which terrorise the common innocent people, who have total faith but not much knowledge about their religion. But then, there are such people in almost every religion. On an average only about 10-15 % people in any religion will be found who have read their religious books completely. Most people tend to depend on the Pujaris, Mullas, Priests and other religious heads to spoon-feed them about their religion. Now don’t ask me how many of these religious heads have read their religious books !

Today’s song is from an extremely obscure film Bombay-1949.

This film is so obscure that the names associated with this film, from the production House – National Artists, Bombay – to names from other heads like the Director. Music Directors (4 MDs), the Lyricists to its cast members (except Shashikala, Mirza Musharraf and Bhudo Advani) all are almost never heard of and are least known !

Today’s song is from an early film of Geeta Roy, from a stunt film- Jeene Do-1948.

If the 50’s decade was that of Religious films, the 40’s decade was dominated by Action, Stunt and Costume films. As many as 28 such films were made in 1948 alone, which gives an average of more than 2 films every month, which is quite high. The reasons were many for such films being made in abundance. The audience for stunt/action films generally belonged to the lower middle class, poor, daily wage earners and labourers. They looked for fights,stunts, dances and cheap humour in these films.

This film was made by Sandesh pictures and its producer’s name was also Sandesh Adhikari. Luckily, the director was not any Sandesh. It was Bal Gajbar, a director not known in Hindi cinema, but he was a celebrated director in Marathi films. he did only 3 films in Hindi as a director namely, Mere Laal-1948, Sandesh-1952 and Gokul ka Raja-1954….his last film in Hindi.It’s Marathi original was Gokulcha Raja ( गोकुळचा राजा ) made in 1950, which was also directed by Bal Gajbar only.

Today (28 January 2023) is the 16th remembrance day of O P Nayyar (16 January 1926 – 28 January 2007). He ruled the roost in HFM during 1950s and 1960s, and that too on his own terms. Imagine not using the voice of Lata Mangeshkar in his songs and still managing to create great songs. Curiously, he found his playback singer of choice in Lata Mangeshkar’s family itself, in the form of her younger sinter Asha Bhonsle. There is no doubt that it was O P Nayyar who offered Asha Bhonsle the opportunity to become a playback singer second only to her illustrious elder sister.

This new year 2023 has seen lots and lots of debutant movies being introduced to the blog. As many as seven movies made their debuts in the blog in this new year. One of the movies had just one song in it. So its debut coincided with its getting YIPPEED as well. We did not have a “proper” YIPpying of the movie so far.

Hullo Atuldom

“Sohni Mahiwal” (1984) was a Indo-Russian historical romance drama film based on the story of ‘Sohni Mahiwal’ – one of the four popular tragic love stories of Punjab & Sindh region; the other three being Sassi Punnun, Mirza Sahiban, & Heer Ranjha; I am sure there may be more such stories in folklore.
