Today’s song is from the Mythological film Navratri-1955.

Made by Bhagyodaya Pictures, Bombay, it was directed by Raman B. Desai. It was produced by R.U.Patel and Natwar Shyam. The music was by the king of Melody – Chitragupt, ably assisted by Dilip Dholakia. The cast of the film was Nirupa Roy, Manahar desai, Sapru, S.N.Tripathi, Lalita Pawar, Kumkum etc. Songs were by G.S.Nepali (6) and Bharat Vyas (2).

Two major actors, who featured in many religious films in Hindi were Manhar Desai and Shahu Modak. You may be surprised to know that both were Christians. Actors who were not Hindus and doing Hindu Gods’ roles in Hindi films, is not new. I remember, there was an actor, Syed Hasan Ali Zaidi aka Mijjan Miyan, with New Theatres, Calcutta. He did the role of Bhakta Pooran in a film with this title in 1933. Just before the release of the film, there were communal riots in Calcutta.

The street songs comprising any public places have been a part of many Hindi films which became prominent in 1950s and 60s. Such songs generally get picturised on lesser-known actors. Within the category of street songs, there is an interesting sub-category in which the street singer conveys the inner feelings of the main actors, usually hero/heroine present to watch the street singing performance, who keeps them within their hearts. Usually, a male actor would be playing harmonium or any other musical instrument and the female actor would be dancing. The onlookers will be the bystanders among whom the film’s main actors who would be witnessing the performance. There are many songs under this sub-category of street songs. I have listed below few such songs of 1950s and 60s:

Hullo Atuldom

I have undertaken a rather difficult task- writing a post to remember the legendary Guru Dutt & trying to pay a tribute to him in my own humble capacity as I am someone who got acquainted with the actor, director, producer, choreographer, and writer much after his time on this earth.

He was born on 9th July 1925, in Bangalore, to Shivashanker Rao Padukone who was a headmaster and a banker & Vasanthi, a teacher and writer. At birth he was called Vasant Kumar & his family was, essentially, Konkani Chitrapur Saraswat Brahmins; but as his family shifted to Bhowanipore (Calcutta) when he was a child, he learnt & spoke fluent Bengali. (That possibly explains why I initially thought he was a Bengali). He had a sister Lalita Lajmi- (a painter) and 3 younger brothers, Atma Ram (a director known for ‘Umang’, ‘Aarop’ etc.), Devi (a producer known for ‘Masoom’, ‘Aakrosh’ etc.), and Vijay. Vasant Kumar’s name was changed to Gurudatta Padukone following a childhood accident, the belief being that it was an auspicious choice. Director & screenwriter Shyam Benegal is second cousin of Vasant Kumar a.k.a. as Guru Dutt & Amrita Rao (actress of the new generation) is the grand daughter of Guru Dutt’s cousin.

In a recent article, I had discussed some Hindi film songs which were ‘inspired’ from foreign language songs/music. In this article, I will take up some Hindi film songs and music which have become ‘inspirations’ for some foreign language songs. Incidentally, in Western musical parlance, it is called ‘sample’ songs/music in which a part of the original song/music tune is sampled in their songs.

In the last few days, I have gone through many foreign songs as well as small clips of a few English films on the video sharing platforms in which Hindi films songs/music have been sampled in music videos as well as in films in the background. A few samples of Hindi film songs/music used in foreign music/film albums is discussed in the following paragraphs.
