Hullo Atuldom

Back to writing a post after a full month, last one was on 6th November to pay tribute to Sanjeev Kumar. In this period I have been getting gentle nudges by our Guruji, enquiring about the lull in my writing. He even suggested that I strike a deal with Sadanandji, about pacing our landmark posts (at that point Sadanandji was four short of his century). I assured Arunkumarji that by the time I get back to writing Sadanandji would have hit his century and gone far ahead; he is sitting on 1014 currently.

I have been a little pre-occupied attending a few weddings, accompanied with learning to shake a leg for the dances to execute at the pre-wedding sangeet and other wedding related celebrations. A few of my nephews got married in this wedding season.

As usual, I cannot keep away from Rafi songs for long. I stumbled upon this movie in the list of songs movie-wise and saw only 7 songs are posted out of 12. The movie is Mastani (1955), the middle of 50’s decade when Rafi Sahab was still finding his niche in the industry and was adding variety of flavourful spices in each new song, he sang for each new actor. The talent of instilling mischief and new murkiyan in the rendition, became the highlight of each music score, who ever be the composer. It also put the other male playback singers in the shade because none could compete. Not the old brigade of singers of 40’s, who sedate style of singing was soon to become obsolete. Mid 50’s was also the time when music score with Rafi sahab as solo male singer started.

Some thought he could find his core strength in playback and people can bracket him into a comic singer, or a theme song singer, or faqeer baba singer. But it was soon clear, that there was no genre of song that the MD could compose and Rafi Sahab could not sing. This was the voice of hero, in romance and sadness, voice of the character actors, and voice anyone else having a song to sing in the films script.

#the Decade of Thirties – 1931 – 1940 #
————————————————————————
(Debutant Movie-‘Double Cross-1938’)

Today I am presenting a song from a movie of 1938. Regulars on this blog will be surprised to see a write-up from me presenting a song from a movie which is around eighty-seven years old. I have been sharing older songs but this must be the oldest of them. I had come across this song more than a year back.

This song is from the movie ‘Double Cross’ from the year 1938. Most of us are aware of the movie titled ‘Double Cross-1977’. This movie of 1977 has a song that is part of my childhood and I had shared that song on this blog. Adding songs from movies with same title is one of my missions, and that is the reason for this post as well. With this post ‘Double Cross’ of 1938 joins the ‘Double Cross’ of ‘1977 🙂 on the blog.

“Double Cross-1938” was directed by M. Bhawnani for ‘Bhawnani Productions, Bombay’. M. Bhawnani was also the story writer of this movie. The cast of this movie had Bimla Kumari, S.B. Nayampalli, Faity (Fatty?) Prasad, Ameena, David, Kishore, A.S. Gyani, R. Dilawar, Master Hussain, Rai Mohan and others. This movie has eight songs as listed in Geet Kosh Vol-I (1931-1940). However the lyricists name is not known for this movie. Music for this movie was composed by Pt Badri Prasad and Walter Coffman was the ‘orchestra organizer’(as mentioned in Geet Kosh). Singer’s names for all the eight songs are mentioned in Geet Kosh. They are Gauhar (Bikaner), Bimla Kumari, Bashir Qawwaal, Faity Prasad, and Ameena.

It will be interesting to know if all songs from this movie can be located. So far, only this song is available. It is a duet song and one of the oldest example of a ‘nok-jhonk’ song.

Let us now listen to this song. The man likens himself to vegetables and likens his sweetheart to sweets. 🙂 Faity Prasad and Ameena are the singers of this song. Lyricist is not known whereas music is composed by Pt Badri Prasad.

I was not able to note correct words at some places.I would request knowledgeable readers to kindly suggest the correct words at those places.

Only audio of the song is available. Seeing that the singers had also acted in the movie, one can guess that the song was picturised on themselves in the movie.

With this song, let us welcome ‘Double Cross-1938’ on this blog !!!


Song-Suno pyaaree suno pyaaree zaraa aaahistaa aahistaa (Double Cross)(1938) Singers-Fatty Prasad, Ameena, Lyricist-Unknown, MD-Pt Badri Prasad

Lyrics

suno pyaaree ee

agar pahle main kathal thhaa to
ab main rah gayaa bhaataa
chalaa do prem pichkaaree
zaraa aahistaa aahistaa

bukhaar aayaa hai mujhko prem kaa
ae jaan meree pyaaree
tere paanee chhidakne se
huyee hai aur bedaaree
na kar aashiq kee tu khvaaree
zaraa aahistaa aahistaa

hua King kong hai
Shaitaaan yaa ulloo gadhaa hai tu
manaa karne pe bhee jo
sar ko mere kha rahaa hai tu
naa karnaa mujhse hoshiyaaree
zaraa aahistaa aahistaa

meree chamcham
meree barfee
meree revdee
meree paapad
agar tujhko sataaun main to
de denaa mujhe jhaapad
banaanaa meree ???kaaree
zaraa aahistaa aahistaa

ye sun lo phir
mere nanhe se dil ko gar sataaoge
banegee khub gat apne kee
ye ki aap paaoge
jab aayegee meree baaree
zaraa aahistaa aahistaa

suno pyaaree ee
suno pyaaree ee
zaraa aahistaa
aahistaa

(laughters)

Some years ago, I did start to write post of some colourful songs, shot outdoors. There are so many of them in hindi films, especially in colour movies, that they are countless. I have a weakness for scenic waterfalls, mountains, lakes, snow peaks, rivers, huge trees etc.

Today, I have dropped two posts in preparation, as I realized belatedly that they are posted. One had Dharmendra and other had Vinod Mehra, incidentally, singing Rafi solos, in Kashmir.

In my posts of the song “Jiya Jiya Re” (Jab Tak hai Jaan) I have mentioned that there must be reels and reels of footage shot of mountains, rivers of naturally beautiful locations in Kashmir, which were not used. For photographers would not be able to resist. In fact in one of the songs mentioned above, they had used shot visuals in the song, without the actors actually going there and shooting for the song. The shots looked like amalgamated with the actors singing in greenery.

Today’s song is from an exceptional Hindi Horror film – House No. 13..1991.

When you say Horror film, only one name comes to mind prominently and that is Ramsay Brothers. They became famous for making C grade horror films, for the C grade audience. The quality of their horror films was not worth discussing, nevertheless, they did good business. Not that such attempts were not made earlier by anybody else. But Overall, Horror films in Hindi Did not have the class it attained in horror films made in western world, especially Hollywood. Even Master Bhagwan had tried his hand at making a horror film – Bhedi Bangla-1949.

Today’s film was made by DVF Investments, Madras. It was completely shot in the Vauhini Studios of madras Actually the film was a remake of the hit Tamil film ” Pathimoonam Number Veedu”-1990. When I saw the credits of the Tamil film, I was surprised that it was directed by Baby, the screenplay was by Baby and the story was also by Baby. We are not used to seeing such confusing names. Not knowing if this ‘Baby’ was a Male or a Female, I found that the full name was A.G.Baby and HE was a well known director of offbeat Tamil films. The producer was G.A.Sheshgiri Rao. This film was released in theatres on 16-8-1991.
