In Hindi films, in addition to heroines, there would be one or two secondary female characters. For examples, in the love triangle involving the hero, there would be ‘other woman’. To create a rift between hero and the heroine, there will be a vamp. Then, Hindi films’ model box office formula stories also require female characters of seducer, westernised women of high society, courtesans, hero/heroine’s sister and friend etc. There were some popular actresses who were known for doing such character’s roles like Kuldeep Kaur, Shashikala, Nishi, Aruna Irani, Helen, Bindu, Faryal, Naaz, Nazima and many more during 1950s to 1970s. There were some lesser known actresses doing such roles, one of them being Lolita Chatterjee. This diva from Kolkata with her glamorous look, drew the attention of Hindi film makers during mid-1960 to mid-1970.

Today’s song is from a Special Film – Raj Laxmi-1945.
The film was made in Calcutta by M.P. Productions. It was directed by Premendra Mitra and the music was by 2 MDs namely, Robin Chaterjee and Dhiren Mitra. Lyricist was Suresh Chaudhari. The cast of the film included Kanan Devi, Chhabi Biswas, Poornima, Jahar Ganguly, Iftekhar Ahmed, Puri, Talat Mahmood etc etc.
I called it A SPECIAL FILM, because it was Talat Mahmood’s first Hindi film in which he sang a Hindi song. Earlier he had sung a few NFS and a few Bangla songs in Calcutta. The film was made in Calcutta by M.P.Productions, so everyone connected to the film was from the Bangla cine world.

Today I present a ‘sensuous-seduction’ song by Asha Bhonsle sung for the movie ‘Gumraah-1976’. As mentioned earlier this movie seems to be an obscure movie of its time but it has now been made available on internet.
Our dear Satyajit jee has mentioned about the story of the movie in brief while presenting a song from this movie on the blog.

A R Rahman – The Musician of 21st Century – 7
The revival of the series on A. R. Rehman is beginning with this post. The last post in the series was this song.
I apologise for my tardiness in leaving the series like this for 2.5 years. None but myself to be blamed for not taking the targets/tasks seriously. Maybe that is the reason none of my series appear in the list of series posted in the blog.
Koyi nai, I plough on doggedly. Not that it is a hard task to find ARR gems, sometimes forgotten in decades old fog. Take the songs of “Saathiya” for instance.

“Bombay Talkie” (1970) is a film by Merchant Ivory Productions, with a screenplay by Ruth Prawer Jhabvala and James Ivory. The movie starred Shashi Kapoor, Jennifer Kendel, Aparna Sen, etc
Matinee idol and popular hero of Hindi films Mr Shashi Kapoor played the role of Vikram, hero of Hindi movies, who is philanderer and spoiled brat. Despite, he being married with beautiful Mala (Aparna Sen), he falls in love with a visiting journalist Lucia (Mrs Jennifer Kendall Kapoor). Extra martial affair, as we have experienced always ends with violence and in this case also the outcome was no different .

#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
————————————————————————
Today’s song is from the movie ‘Batohi-1949’. This missing the beloved song is sung by Shrimati Ghosh.
I have earlier presented a song from this movie ‘Batohi-1949. This movie is an un-released movie of its time. Very less information is available in the Geet Kosh page for this movie. The name of the director for this movie is not given. However some sources on internet mention the name of the director as Kumar Menon. and the banner as ‘T.K. Screen Classics’. HFGK gives the cast of this movie as Bharat Bhooshan, Indu Pal, Krishna Murari, Beena Pal, Kesari, Shivraj, Sapru and others.
Geet Kosh lists six songs for this movie, leaving space for the possibility of more songs for this movie (yet to be known). Music for this movie is composed by S.K. Pal. The lyrics writers for this movie are Bharat Vyas, Vishwamitr Aadil, Ratan Piya, and Bharti Devi. Records for the songs for this movie were released by Columbia Records. Out of the six songs listed in Geet Kosh lyricist name is mentioned for only two individual songs, leaving blank for other four songs. Singers for these songs are Rajkumari, K.C. Dhawan, Manna Dey, Geet Roy/Dutt and Shrimati Ghosh.

#The Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
———————————————————————
Today 27th November 2025 is the seventy-third birth anniversary of Composer Singer Bappi Lahiri (27.11.1952-15.02.2022). On this occasion as a tribute to him I am presenting a song from the movie ‘Sinhaasan-1986’.
I got to listen to this song earlier this year when I was still at Vadodara and was travelling from the city to my workplace around 47 kms from the city. I had earlier presented filmography of Bappi Lahiri for his Hindi Films from the 1970s and also for few years of the 1980s. However I did not include it in my series of Bappi Lahiri songs where I had presented songs that are part of my memory till 1985, because this song did not fall in that category.
Today’s movie ‘Sinhaasan-1986’ was directed by Krishna who also produced it for ‘Padmalaya Studio, Madras’. So this is one of those movies of actor Jeetendra where he was a part of many films coming from the southern part of the country. Bappi Lahiri too was the regular music composer for such films. I have not watched this movie, so can’t say much about it. However it seems to be a ‘fantasy’ movie. The cast of this movie has Jeetendra, Jaya Prada, Pran, Kader Khan, Mandakini, Shakti Kapoor, Bharat Bhooshan, Dr Shreeram Lagoo, Amjad Khan, Sujit Kumar, Gulshan Grover, Gurbachan Singh, Praveen Kumar, Waheeda Rehman, Radha and others.

Rest in Peace – Dharmendra (8/12/1937 – 24/11/2025)
During last week I have written posts of two Dharmendra -Hema Malini songs, and as I said, youtube was throwing up more such songs at me. I have saved many songs now featuring Dharmendra. Some of these are outdoor songs, showing refreshing locations, like riverside, mountains, trees etc.
Dharmendra has left this mortal world, where everything is mortal. We can hope that some memories will remain immortal till this “faani” intelligent humanity’s existence. So “Lafaani” is nothing. Dharmendra himself was among many things, an urdudaan, and wrote shayari in urdu. During his heydays as a star, he appeared shy of media. Only lately he has been giving some interviews and appearing on TV shows. That is when the real personality has come to light.
