There are some prominent Hindi film actors whose names are mainly associated with ‘middle of the road’ and ‘off-beat’ cinemas though they have also worked in mainstream Hindi films. The names that comes to my mind are Naseeruddin Shah, Om Puri, Girish Karnad, Shabana Azmi, Smita Patil, Dipti Naval etc. Almost all of them made their Hindi film debut under the direction of Shyam Benegal. I was not aware that Rajeshwari Sachdev was also one of such actors until recently while checking her filmography. She has worked on stage, television and films. She is also a singer and a dancer.

Today’s song is from the comedy film titled ‘Chalis baba Ek Chor’ (1954).

Obviously, the famous and popular story from the Arabian Nights – Alibaba aur Chalis Chor, has been used here for a parody of the film title. The film was produced by K Arts, a banner owned by the producer Kamini Kaushal (real name Uma Kashyap). Being the producer, she had the right to be the heroine of the film too ! The hero of the film was a misfit – Balraj Sahni. Undoubtedly, he was an excellent actor, but his personality, looks and his role history made him unfit for the comedy or romantic films. Some actors create an image with their early films and it sticks with them. After sometime, the audience finds it difficult to accept them in the roles diagonally opposite to their established image.

Today’s song is from a costume film ‘Raj Pratigya’ (1958).

This is yet another film, with a story of King and Queen. I have seen this film and have its story with me. Otherwise also, the film’s title and the cast are a clear giveaway enough to declare this film as a Raja-Rani film. The only difference is, this film’s story is based on the background of 2 warring kingdoms, Magadh and Malawa, which existed in olden times in India. After seeing such films, one gets the answer why and how the Mughals or the Europeans could win in India and managed to rule it despite the population being majority Hindus and the rulers in a disciplined minority. The majority was busy fighting among themselves rather than with the invaders jointly !

Today, January 13, 2024, is 94th birth anniversary of music director, Sardar Malik. In his childhood, he had wished to be a singer, but the fate turned him toward music direction. He did not have a prolific career. He never got opportunity to work with top film banners in spite of talents which was reflected in most of the songs he composed. Recently, I had gone through his interview on Vividh Bharati which was probably conducted after his ‘retirement’ from the film world. From his talk, I could visualize him to be a man of principles, a man of least resistance and a man of self-respect which will not allow him to indulge in networking. Lastly, he was a sensitive person who refrained from hurting anyone even if he had suffered from wrongdoings.
