Today’s song is from a 75 year old Mythological film- Shri Ganesh Mahima aka Shri Krishna Vivah-1950.

The film was made by Basant pictures, Bombay and it was directed by its owner Homi Wadia.

It is ironic that while Homi Wadia separated from his elder brother J.B.H. Wadia and consequently from the company- Wadia Movietone on the issue of insisting on continuing making stunt films, was now making Social and Mythological films and Nadia, who also left with him was working in Stunt and action films of other producers.

The Music Director was S.N.Tripathi. The cast of the film was Meena Kumari, Mahipal, S.N.Tripathi, Moolchand, Dalpat, Amarnath and others.
