Today’s song is from a film – Naya Kanoon-1965 – which had an offbeat story on current affairs of IPC. Unfortunately due to several reasons the film was not successful. Two reasons were there. First was, in 1965 so many iconic and milestone movies were made that anything less than their standard was unlikely to have acceptance of the audience. Secondly, the film had inherent lacunae which downgraded it.

Today’s song is from a Mythological film – Tilottama-1954.

Made by Basant Pictures of Homi Wadia, it was directed by the Trick Master Babubhai Mistry. Music was by the multitasking expert S.N.Tripathi. The cast included Chitra, Kailash, Maruti, Babu raje, Indira Bansal, Heera Sawant, B.M.Vyas and a long list of small time actors, who were regulars in such films. The Lyrics were by G.S.Nepali.

Tilottama was an extraordinarily beautiful apsara from the Swarga. She was especially created by Vishwakarma on Brahma ji’s suggestion. The first chapter of mahabharata – The Adi Parva – mentions that Maharshi Narad detailed the story of Tilottama to Pandavas and warned them that one Draupadi as a wife to 5 Pandavas could become a cause of conflict and that they must be careful about it.

#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
—————————————————————

‘Hans Ke Jiyo-1950’ (or 1941-1950) was an unreleased movie from the decades of 1941-1950. As per information available in Geet Kosh Vol-II (1941-1950) this movie was made in the decade of 1941-1950. But, there is very less information available about this movie. The name of the production banner for this movie is mentioned as D.M.G. Films. Director of this movie is not mentioned. Likewise, no information is available about the cast of this movie. However Geet Kosh lists seven songs for this movie with singer’s name for each song. Again the lyricist name for the individual songs is mentioned for two songs only which is Chhabi Kumar ‘Mast’, and rest songs have been left blank against the lyricist’s name. The singers list for this movie includes Sulochana Kadam, Sadashiv Gujar, Suman Purohit, and Vinod Kumar.

Atuldom is a lovely place to be. We have some like-minded film music lovers who make the job of post writing very easy. Let me explain.

I was planning a post on a song from the 1999 released, Milan Luthria directed and Ramesh Taurani & Kumar S. Taurani (under their banner of Tips Cassettes) produced film “Kachche Dhaage”. I was planning the post as a tribute to Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan whose death anniversary happens to be on 16th August. He passed away on this date in 1997 when he was only 49.

Kamsune/Unsune songs of Asha Bhosle – 38

“Ba Babalu Ek Main Ek Tu” by Asha Bhosle from “Agni Rekha” (1973). The song is written by Kavi Pradeep and composed by Kalyanji Anandji.

“Agni Rekha”(1973) was produced by K S Melwani and directed by Mahesh Kaul for Mel-Kaul Films. The movie had Sanjeev Kumar, Sharada(known in South Indian film Industry as Urvashi Sharada), Bindu, Helen, Durga Khote, Asrani, Sajjan, Jankidas, Yashodhara Katju, Suresh Chatwal, Chand Usmani, Kumud Tripathi, Lalita Kumari, Harindranath Chattopadhyay, Pal Mahendra, Radheyshyam, Chandrima Bhaduri, Indrani Mukherjee etc in it.

Agni Rekha deals with social stigma, morality and the possibility of redemption for a woman with a troubled past. The film focuses on the emotional conflict of a man who marries a widow with a child, only to discover a dark truth about her past. It’s a sensitive portrayal of how society often refuses to forgive a woman’s mistakes, no matter how much she reforms.

(Lyricist Kavi Pradeep-33)

I have been presenting songs penned by Kavi Pradeep which are yet to be posted here on this blog. We are all aware that Kavi Pradeep mostly wrote songs for movies from ‘mythological genres’. In such movies there are songs related to ‘mythological stories’ and ‘incidents’ which Kavi Pradeep brought to us in lyrics form with nuances such that one can easily visualize the incident happening in front of him/her. Picturisation of such songs is also a treat to watch. Readers might be remembering the recent song about ‘Krishna-Sudama meet’ which was posted here on the ‘world friendship day’. This song is a wonderful song both in terms of lyrics and picturisation.

Today, Janmashtami– the birth festival of Lord Krishna, is being celebrated all over the country. On this occasion I am presenting a song which is about the baal leelaa(s)’ of Lord Krishna. This song is sung by Usha Mangeshkar and chorus and the picturisation of this song has several child artistes and female artistes performing on it. The location of this song and the visuals around are lovely and they help in bringing to us the childhood innocence, playfulness and fun that the friends of Krishn and the Gopees are having.
