Today’s saawan song is from the movie ‘Krishna Leela-1946’. When I came across this song, I was surprised that it was still missing on this blog, because the singer of this song is none other than Kanan Devi.

‘Krishna Leela-1946’ was directed by Devki Bose for Geetanjali Pictures, Bombay. It had Kanan Devi, Paresh Bannerjee, Devi Mukherjee, Ranjeet Roy, Parvati, Suprabha, Kamal Mitra, Gokul Mukherjee, Tandon, Kapoor, Krushto Dhan and others.

Today’s saawan song is from the movie “Ghamand-1955”. What a wonderful ‘saawan composition this is. The composition soaked in the delight of saawan is by Gulshan Soofi, while the verses swinging in the spirit of saawan are by Naqsh Lyallpuri. Asha Bhonsle’s singing will take you far away from the world to the world of saawan.

“Ghamand-1955” was directed by Deepak Asha for Kirtan Pictures, Bombay. It was produced by Rijhumal Sewaram. It had Shyama, Sheela Ramani, Rajkumar, Kamal Mehra, Ramlal, Seeta Bose, Mohini, Manjeet Kumari, Shakeel, Thakur, Ishwar, Bajaj, Jaani, Murad and others. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 15.01.1955.

#Desh Kee Mittee Kee Khushboo#

The month of saawan is at its peak. Activities like visiting temples, offering prayers, having get-togethers and visiting nearby tourist places reach their peak in this season. This Sunday there a was trip arranged by the family club of the colony at my new workplace. However, I could not participate in that due to other priorities. People from my department who were part of this trip told me that the place they visited had a big farm with a ‘lake/pond’ around and a temple of goddess. The snacks and lunch were arranged from the canteen at our work place only and people enjoyed ‘antaaksharee’, housie, playing games and relaxing in the midst of lush green fields around. We in India celebrate nature, and we celebrate seasons. We pay our respect to nature through many customs and rituals. Different religious and spiritual activities are practiced during this period. People all over the country follow these customs, rituals, and traditions with some local variations.

Today’s song is a chorus song from the Mythological film Hanuman Patal Vijay-1951.

I liked to see and enjoyed Mythological films. This was primarily due to the exposure to such films since early childhood. Thanks to the elders in our huge joint family, I got appointed as their caretaker who would take a group of elders to see such films. That is why from childhood I developed a religious mindset. However, my father ensured to impress on me that Religion is strictly a personal matter and one must decide how much importance one should give to Religion in one’s life. I have followed this principle till today and I treat all religions with the same reverence. Excess or exhibition of Religion must be avoided. This is my opinion.

Today’s song is from the Mythological film Navdurga-1953.

!953 was a year Music ruled the films. Various genres were tried by filmmakers to attract the audience. After the Partition, the new blood flowing in all sections of filmmaking was trying new ideas and experiments. However, in all these changes, one genre still ruled the audience and that was the Religious films. Besides the “Golden Era of Film Music”, the 50’s were also the decade for the religious films. From 1951 to 1960, for a period of 10 full years, as many as 124 Mythological films were made, averaging one new religious film every month for 10 continuous years.

Navdurga-1953 is a story of Navratri and the power of Maa Shakti in 9 different forms. Navratri, literally a celebration of nine nights, is a festival that actually occurs once in every quarter, i.e. four times a year. Of these, the celebration that occurs in the month of Chaitra and the month of Ashwin are the better known and more popular Navratri celebrations. The Chaitra navratri ends with the celebration of Ram Navami, the birthday of Lord Ram. The Ashwin Navratri is followed on the next day by Dushehra, the celebration of the victory of Lord Rama over Ravana, the King of Lanka. Besides these two, the navratri celebrations also occur in the months of Aashaad and Paush / Maagh. These are also called the Gupt Navratri, or the lesser known or secret Navratri.
