Continuing with the series on Asha Bhosle singing for actresses whose first names begin with the letter “A”, we arrive at the name Ashwini Bhave. I had already mentioned Ashwini Bhave in the post on the song gharwaalee banaa le mujhe.
When the film Henna (1991) was launched, RK Films organized a major talent search. This was heavily publicized by the studio’s PR department. When Zeba Bakhtiyar was selected and announced as the heroine in the title role, a footnote was attached to many articles stating that RK Films was still searching for an actress to play the second heroine. In various interviews, Rishi Kapoor and Randhir Kapoor complained that many established heroines had declined the offer. They argued that the second heroine’s role was as important as the title role and was comparable in significance to Rajendra Kumar’s role in Sangam (1964). Various names were circulated as having turned down the role. If I remember correctly, Juhi Chawla, Meenakshi Seshadri, and Madhuri Dixit were among those mentioned. Eventually, the role went to Ashwini Bhave, who was not yet widely known in Hindi cinema.

Today’s song is from the social film Albeli-1945.
There were 3 Same Title films in 1945, 1955 and 1974. To match it, there were 4 films titled Albela in 1851, 1971, 1990 and 2001. There was also Albela mastana in 1967.
This was a Talwar production, Calcutta film. Directed by its owner R.C.Talwar, it had music by G.A. Chishti. There were 2 lyricists – Shanti Swarup ‘Kaif’ and Chishti himself. HGFK, however, does not credit any song to any Lyricist or any singer. Thus, one has to depend upon his own judgement about the singer or believe the uploader’s mention.
The cast of the film was Ramola, Rooplekha, Manorama, Usha, Sunder, Heeralal and others. Film Albeli’s review came in the March – 46 issue of Film India magazine. As usual, Baburao Patel had nothing good to say about this film. The film’s story centred around the love affair of a street girl and a Gypsy boy, who is loved by two more girls. The film was released on 22-12-1945 at Central Cinema, Bombay. The story was by Talwar himself. Dialogues and Screenplay was by J.S.Casshyap. The film’s hero was Satish.

Today’s song is from an obscure film called Paigham aka Message-1941.
The film was made by Chimanlal Desai’s banner Amar Pictures, Bombay. This Chimanlal Desai was the same person who had established Sagar movietone, along with Dr. Ambadas patel. In its time, Sagar was a famous studio, making several hit films. Chimanlal lost Sagar due this habit of gambling. The film was directed by his son Surendra Desai. Amar Pictures was named after the son of Surendra desai-Amar. Just being the son of a producer does not make one a good director. Surendra was an average director. His elder brother Virendra Desai was a good director, but he spoiled his own as well as Nalini Jaywant’s life, when he married the 16 year old Nalini. He was already married and had 2 children also.
Film Paigham 1941 had music by Gyan Dutt. The cast of the film included Sadhana Bose, Surendra, Anil Kumar, Protima Devi, Ansari, Sulochana Chaterjee and others. There were 11 songs in the film, written by Pt. Indra, Safdar Aah and Balam. There were 3 solos of Surendra and 3 duets with Sadhana Bose, 2 solos of Sadhana, 1 solo of Bulo C.Rani and 2 duets of Bulo C.Rani.
