Today’s song is from the film Apni Chhaya-1950.

The literal meaning of this film title is ‘our own shadow’. However, after reading the film’s story, one wonders what way this title is related to what happens in the film /. This is not the only example. There are several such misleading or confusing film titles. Maybe the producers were fond of fancy titles irrespective of the film’s content. It is also possible that there were changes in the film story during the shooting and thus the relation between the film content and the film title deferred like Ravan and Bibhishan !

The film, made by Chitralaya Ltd. Bombay was ably directed by P.L.Santoshi – who also wrote the lyrics for this film. During this time period Santoshi was completely enamored with one of his Heroines – Rehana. When I saw Santoshi’s name as a director, I looked into the cast of the film, but did not find Rehana’s name in the list.

The cast of the film was Sulochana Chatterjee, Balwant Singh, Radhakishen, Sajjan, Mumtaz Ali (Mehmood’s father), Ramsingh, Dulari, Neelam, Jawahar Kaul and others. The music was mostly by Husnlal-Bhagatram, except 2 songs which were composed by Pt. Hanuman Prasad (he discovered Geeta Roy in 1946).

‘Duniya Kyaa Jaane’ (1971) was produced and directed by C V Sridhar under his banner, Chithralaya Pictures. The cast included Bharti, Pramendra, Anupama, Krishnakant, Nazeer Hussain, Sulochana Chatterjee, Mumtaz Begum, Manmohan, Mac Mohan, Iftikhar etc. It was a remake of C V Sridhar’s Tamil film, ‘Avalukendru oru Manam’ (1971). Bharti was the only common actor in both the versions. While, the Tamil version was a box office hit, the Hindi version did not attain the same status on the box office.

Hullo Atuldom

Today is the birth anniversary (100th) of the legendary filmmaker, actor, choreographer of the 1950s & early ’60s. I found this article in today’s Times Of India.

As I was writing my previous post on Guru Dutt I came across this article on the internet. It spoke of K. Asif’s magnum opus “Love And God” which initially had Guru Dutt playing Qais (Majnu). But the movie halted with the death of the actor in 1964.

After a while K Asif revived “Love and God”; this time with Sanjeev Kumar playing Majnu (Qais). Nimmi was still Laila. The film again came to a halt with the passing of K. Asif in 1971, the film was about 70% complete.

My post is coming after almost 15 days’ gap. It was not because I was out of station, but due to the Laptop problem. The Laptop could not be repaired despite all efforts and I had to go for a New one. This is the first post from my New Laptop.

Today’s song is from the film Badi Maa-1945.

One of the favourite film titles of the filmmakers was the word ‘Maa’. There were 4 released and 1 unreleased film titled plain ‘Maa’. There were also 23 films starting with the word ‘Maa’, like Maa Baap (4 times), Maa, Behan aur Biwi, Maa beta, Maa beti etc. There was ‘ Maa ki Saugandh’ for Hindi lovers and ‘Maa ki Qasam’ for Urdu lovers. In addition there were other varieties of ‘Maa’ like, Badi Maa, Chhoti Maa, Sauteli Maa, Meri Maa, Teri Maa, Iski Maa, Uski Maa, Sabki Maa etc ending with Maa tujhe Salaam. Jokes aside, are titles for films in shortage or they just wanted to milk the cow by trying to arouse sentiments of a gullible audience ?

Mukesh and his Actors – 06

Navin Nischol was amongst the new breed of actors to grace the silver screen from the early 70’s. He made his debut with the film Sawan Bhadon (1970) in which he was paired with none other than Rekha who was also making her debut in Hindi films.

His popular films and even more popular songs are well known. Without going into the details of his films and his successful foray into television media, I direct readers to his wiki page where ample details are provided.

In this post, we shall deal with Mukesh’s playback for Navin Nischol. There are only 3 films in which Mukesh sang a total of 5 songs for him. Here is the table of their collaboration.

Mukesh and his Composers – 38

Ek raat mein do do chaand khile
ek ghoonghat mein ek badli mein

Who has not heard this lovely romantic duet featuring Nanda and Anant Marathe?

The poet talks about a moon in the ghoonghat and another amongst the clouds. Nanda with her reticent and infectious crescent moon smile is all over the song.

Have I written about Nanda? Well, maybe just a comment here and there.

Many of her songs come to mind instantly but that will have to wait for another day to see if I can pull off a post on her career.

Coming to the topic in hand, today we shall see the collaboration of Mukesh with famed composer Chitragupt aka “King of Duets”.

In the context of Hindi film music, we have often heard the word ‘plagiarism’ for copying tunes, melodies, orchestrations and even the lyrics. The plagiarism in Hindi film music has become more pronounced from 1980s onwards during which some of the new generation of Hindi film music directors faced the allegations of plagiarism in their compositions of many songs. It came into open when two songs of the same tune, ‘thamma thamma loge’ in ‘Thanedaar’ (1990) and second, ‘jumma chhumma de do’ in ‘Hum’ (1991) were released within a short gap which were said to be inspired from ‘tama tama’ by Mory Kante (1988). Some of the music directors have dismissed the allegation of plagiarism by saying that such song compositions have not been copied but have been ‘inspired’ from original sources.
