Today’s song is the last and final song from the film Ratnavali-1945.
The film was made by Amar Pictures, Bombay, owned by Chimanlal Desai, who was the owner of Sagar Movietone earlier. The films made by this company were generally directed by Virendra Desai, his son. The life story of Virendra Desai was very bad. While he was at the peak of his career, with a wife and 2 children, he fell in love with his Heroine – Nalini Jaywant, who was 15 years younger to him. After completing the film Adab Arz-1943, both of them eloped to Calcutta and got married there.

In this short write-up, I present the last song, ‘aaya hoon gharbaar chhod main ban ne filmi star’ to be covered on the Blog from an obscure film, ‘Bahke Kadam’ (1971). The song is written by Dharmesh Dutt which is set to music by Usha Khanna. The film was produced and directed by Dharmesh Dutt who also acted in the film and wrote the songs. The cast included Agha, Aprajita, Dharmesh Dutt, Madan Puri, Jagirdar, Sundar, Mridula, Sulochana, Kanu Roy etc. This appears to be the only film of Dharmesh Dutt as a producer, director, actor and song writer. The VCD/DVD of the film is not available on any video sharing platform.
The song under discussion is rendered by Mohammed Rafi. Since video clip of the song is not available, I can only make a guess based on the lyrics that the song may have been picturised on Agha. Two features of this song are that in the last stanza, suddenly the mukhda part of the song, ‘dil dekhe dekho’ gets incorporated. Incidentally, the old song was also rendered by Mohammed Rafi and set to music by Usha Khanna.

#the Decade of Sixties – 1961 – 1970 #
———————————————————————
The song in this post is from an unreleased movie ‘Rani Chandravati-1960s’. One song from this movie has been presented on the blog earlier by our Shree Sudhir jee.
Not much information about this movie is available in Geet Kosh Vol-IV (1961-1970) where this movie is mentioned under the section of Un-Released movies. Geet Kosh lists six songs leaving space for the possibility that more songs might have been recorded for this movie. The singer’s names for all the six songs have been mentioned. And they include Suman Kalyanpur and Subir Sen; with Suman Kalyanpur having three solos and one solo by Subir Sen. Music for this movie was composed by S.N. Tripathi. Out of the six songs in the movie two have been identified as penned by lyricist B.D. Mishra.

Today’s song is the last and the final song from the film Sunehre Din-1949. The film made by Jagat Pictures was directed by Satish Nigam and the music was by Gyan Dutt. The cast of the film included Rehana, Raj Kapoor, Nigar Sultana, Haroon, Heera Sawant, Ramesh Sinha and others.
The songs of this film were quite enchanting and a few of them became very popular. Especially the solo song “Baharon ne jise chheda” by Mukesh and the duet “Maine dekhi jag ki reet ” by Mukesh and Shamshad Begum are heard even today by song lovers – which includes me too ! For the film’s 10 songs, Gyan Dutt had used 8 singers like Geeta Roy, Shamshad Begum, Sulochana Kadam, Kalyani, Mukesh, Khan Mastana, Durrani and Surinder Kaur. Today’s song is by Surinder Kaur.

In this short write-up, I present a duet song, ‘gulaabi nazaare nazaare gulaabi’ rendered by Mohammed Rafi and Suman Kalyanpur from an obscure film, ‘Lakhpati’ (1991). It was the only film produced and directed by Jal Baliwala. The film was certified by Censor Board on April 5, 1991, but it could not get the theatrical release. Later, the film was released on VCD. I have given the story of the film in my earlier article while covering the song, nashe mein choor nazar hai mujhe.
The musical composition of at least three songs including the one under discussion gives a feel of the golden period of Hindi film music of 1960s and I am not completely off the mark. Music director, Iqbal Qureshi came into prominence in the 1960s. Lata Mangeshkar was not singing with Mohammed Rafi in most part of 1960s. The song under discussion is a duet of Rafi with Suman Kalyanpur.

Hrishikesh Mukherjee has been known to make the family-oriented and ‘slice of the life’ types of films such as ‘Anuradha. (1960), ‘Anupama’ (1966), ‘Aashirwaad’ (1968), ‘Satyakam’ (1969), ‘Anand’ (1970), ‘Guddi’ (1971) and many more. When the film, ‘Sabse Bada Sukh’ (1972) was announced to be produced and directed by Hrishikesh Mukherjee, it became a topic of discussion in the film magazines at that time because it was a sex comedy which was a departure from the usual theme of his films. It was a low budget film probably because Hrishikesh Mukherjee was taking a risk of experimenting with a story which was out of his comfort zone. The cast included Vijay Arora, Faiyyaz, Robi Ghosh, Naarghita, Rajnibala, Utpal Dutt, Asrani, Keshto Mukherjee, Tarun Ghosh, Meena Rai etc.
