Today’s song is from the film Gumashta-1951.

Gumashta is an Urdu word. Being from and having grown up in Hyderabad, I know the meaning of this word, from my childhood. In those days the family Doctors did not charge the patients every time they visited him. Instead, he used to note his charges in a diary, where a separate page was reserved for that patient. At the end of every month, the total was done and a man was sent by the doctor to the patient’s house to collect the amount. That man was called ” Gumashta” or a Bill Collector.

Today’s song is from the comedy film Hangama-1952.

1952 was an year which was going through a lean period for Hindi films. Increased costs of Film production, escalating rates of stars and music Directors, establishment of Star System in place of earlier Studio System, increasing taxes, decreasing number of Cinema Halls etc caused a worry in the film industry. Financiers with Black money were making films – in 1952 the number of Hindi films made went up to 105 from 97 of 1951, but dropped again to 98 in 1953. Most films were of lower quality. Because of superior music there were some great films too, but the situation was grave nevertheless.
