Today’s song is from a Mythological film – Shiv Kanya-1954.

The decade of the 1950 was known for 2 things. As we all know, the first thing was that it was the peak of “The Golden Era” of Hindi film music. Secondly, it was also the peak of Mythological and Religious films (124 films in 10 years). So, there was atleast 1 such new film every month continuously for the next 120 months !

When so many Mythological films are made, naturally many stories are repeated in some way or the other. Usually stories from the 18 Puranas, 18 Up-Puranas and 2 Epics- Ramayana and Mahabharat are used for films. Fed up with the usual stories, some filmmakers tried to find unused new stories from the puranas,while some tried to cook up own stories by using the Mythological names and mixing several stories.

After the holy month of shraavan, Ganesh Utsav, Eid and other regional festivals it is time for celebration of another big festival all over the country.

It is time for Mahaalayaa. From tomorrow onwards, nine day long or ten day long nav-durgaa festival will commence all over India. In the state of Gujarat where I have been residing for last twenty-one years, people take ‘pad yaatraas’ (walking on foot) during this festival and offer their prayers to the Goddess Ambe (Amba jee), Chamunda Devee (Chotila), Kalika Maataa (Pavagadh) and many other shrines.
