In this post I present a song from the movie ‘Krishna Sudaamaa-1957’.

This movie had made its debut on the blog on 05.12.2016 with its song ‘chal more manwaa shyaam ke dwaare’. This song remains the only song posted on the blog from this movie so far.

‘Krishna Sudaamaa-1957’ was a ‘mythological movie’ directed by Shanti Kumar for ‘Tajviristan’, Bombay. It was produced by Lekhraj Bhakri.

It had Nirupa Roy, Balraj Sahni, Rajkumar, Prem Adeeb, Umakant, Nand Kishore, Malay Sarkar, Santosh, Madhvi, Vimal Ghaisas, Sinha, Indira Bansal and others.

This movie was passed by Censor Board on 24.01.1957.

As per HFGK Vol III this movie has ten songs composed by Husnlal-Bhagatram. Lyrics for these ten songs are shared by Qamar Jalalabadi – six songs, Pt. Radheshyam – two songs and Ramesh Gupta – two songs.

Music for this movie was composed by Husnlal-Bhagatram.

Here is the list of songs in this movie:-

SNo Song Title Lyricist Singer/s
01 Ratan hain do anmol hamaare Radheshyam Mohd Rafi, Madhubala Zaveri
02 Gurukul ka jeewan bhi apna Radheshyam Madhubala Zaveri, chorus
03 Shyam ki yaad mein.. chale gaye Qamar Mohd Rafi, Madhubala Zaveri
04 O krishna bigdi banaa de Qamar Lata Mangeshkar
05 Bujh gaye aashaa ke deepak Qamar Lata Mangeshkar
06 Chal more manwaa Qamar Mohd Rafi
07 Sudaama mandir dekh dare Qamar Mohd Rafi
08 Jis rang raakhe prabhu usi rang Qamar Mohd Rafi, chorus
09 Moorkh man laakhon yatan kare Ramesh Gupta Not mentioned
10 Kyaa kahoon sakhi aaj … Ramesh Gupta Not mentioned

(HFGK Vol-III (1951-1960) mentions in the footnote of this ‘movie-page’ that the recording of songs of this movie was completed in ‘July-‘1954 itself. This movie was passed by Censor Board in 1957).

Today’s song is a duet song sung by Mohd Rafi and Madhubala Zaveri.

This song is about the ‘story of friendship of Krishna and Sudaama’ and their ‘bond of true friendship’ which remained intact even as they grew up under different circumstances where Krishna prospered and Sudaamaa remain a poor Brahmin.

Both of them were friends from their days at the ‘gurukul’ and both of them loved each other and their friendship remained immortal till their end.

(Since this ‘legend’ is specific to our country, I have included it in ‘Desh Ki Mitti Ki Khushboo’)…

Let us now listen to this sweet melodious song composed by Husnlal-Bhagatram. Only the audio of this song is available.
