Today, May 26, 1926, is the 34th Remembrance Day of producer-actor, Ashalata Biswas. On this occasion, I have a picked up one of the songs from ‘Baazooband’ (1954) which was produced by her and the last film under her banner, Variety Productions, by which time she was separated from her husband, Anil Biswas.
Ashalata Biswas (17/10/1917 – 26/05/1992), born as Mehrunissa Bhagat in a Gujarati Muslim family based in Bhuj, started her filmy career as an actress in ‘Sati Toral’ (1935) with the screen name of ‘Ashalata’. While working in the film, ‘Manmohan’ (1936), Ashalata and Anil Biswas, the film’s music director got married. She continued to work in films which included ‘Jwaala’ (1938) with Chandramohan, ‘Premveer’ (1938) with Master Vinayak, ‘Deepak’ (1940) with Prithviraj Kapoor, ‘Zindagi’ (1940), ‘Sukhi Jeewan’ (1942), ‘Chaar Aankhen’ (1945) among 20 odd films till 1949.

Today’s song is from an obscure but good film Apni Chhaya-1950.
The film APNI CHHAYA-1950, literally means ‘our own shadow’. The story is such that what happens to the father when he is young, happens to his son as well. Only difference is he is the hero in the first case and the Villain in the second phase. The film was made by Chitralaya limited Bombay. The story and Direction was by P L Santoshi, who had also written all songs of the film. The music was by Hanuman Prasad and Husnlal-Bhagatram. There were 10 songs and 7 singers were used. The cast of the film was Balwant Singh, Sulochana Chatterjee, Radhakishen, Mumtaz Ali, Sajjan, Tiwari, Jawahar Kaul etc. Except perhaps the Husnlal Bhagatram duo, major contributors to music, direction, lyrics, acting etc were on the declining stages in their careers.

Today’s song is from a “special film”- Akashpari-1958.
I have called this film a ‘Special film’ for not so honorable reasons. This film was produced by S.P.Srivastav and M.S.Geete. It was directed by Mohan Sinha (grandfather of actress Vidya Sinha). The cast of the film consisted of Kusum Pradhan, Mahipal, Ram Singh, Maruti, Kamal (they were husband and wife in real life), Krishnakumari and many others.

Today’s song is from the film Ghayal-1951.
This social film was produced and directed by Ramchandra Thakur. The music was by Gyan Dutt. In this film, there were 11 songs-including a 2 part song-but unusually there were 7 Lyricists whose songs were sung by 6 different singers. While 5 singers were well known, the sixth name ” Bhola ” was unknown. For a long time no one knew who this Bhola was. Many people thought that Bhola was Bhola Shreshtha, the M.D., but it’s not true. This Bhola was Bulo C Rani,M.D. He joined the industry to be a singer. Khemchand Prakash gave him an opportunity to sing in the film Mehmaan-1942. Later, the same year,Gyan Dutt also gave him songs.Bulo C Rani sang 34 songs in 19 films – initially in his own name, and from 1944 onwards as ‘Bhola’, as he had become a Music Director himself by then, with the film Moorti-1944.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No.124
————————————————————————————–
On this date ten years ago (25 May 2013),two songs from two different movies was covered in the blog. Here are the details:-
| Post No | Song Title | Name of the movie | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| 8127 | Is duniya mein sab chor chor | Bhai Bhai (1956) | Movie YIPPEED in the blog by now |
| 8128 | Aa jaa aa jaa o jaane waale | Sabak (1950) | 8 songs covered out of 10 by now |
We observe that one movie (out of two) whose songs were represented in the blog on this day ten years ago (on 25 May 2013) has since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with one movie which is unYIPPEED and is therefore eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (25 May 2023).
That movie is “Sabak”(1950).
