Today’s song is from a so called “social” film made by Filmistan. The story of this film clearly indicates that it was a “Costume” film about the usual King, Queen and a wicked Vazir. I am surprised how they could do such a blunder. Surely, the posters would have given away the real Genre of the film and no one would have accepted this film as a Social film, as claimed by Filmistan. Maybe it was an error by HFGK itself.

Today’s song is from a controversial film, released at the end of the 1940’s decade – Hanste Aansoo-1950.
First of all the title itself seems to contain contrasting emotions. One smiles when he is happy and one has tears when he is hurt or sad. I feel we get tears when we are sad or hurt of course, but even when a person is too happy he gets tears in his eyes. For example, when a child is away for many years, the mother feels sad and weeps in his memory. But when he comes back after many years and hugs his mother, she gets tears at that time also, with happiness !

Today’s song is from the film Gumashta-1951.
Gumashta is an Urdu word. Being from and having grown up in Hyderabad, I know the meaning of this word, from my childhood. In those days the family Doctors did not charge the patients every time they visited him. Instead, he used to note his charges in a diary, where a separate page was reserved for that patient. At the end of every month, the total was done and a man was sent by the doctor to the patient’s house to collect the amount. That man was called ” Gumashta” or a Bill Collector.

Today’s song is from the comedy film Hangama-1952.
1952 was an year which was going through a lean period for Hindi films. Increased costs of Film production, escalating rates of stars and music Directors, establishment of Star System in place of earlier Studio System, increasing taxes, decreasing number of Cinema Halls etc caused a worry in the film industry. Financiers with Black money were making films – in 1952 the number of Hindi films made went up to 105 from 97 of 1951, but dropped again to 98 in 1953. Most films were of lower quality. Because of superior music there were some great films too, but the situation was grave nevertheless.

Today’s song is from the film Maaya-1936.
The film was made by New Theatres, Calcutta, which was a leading filmmaking studio in India. The film was directed by P.C.Barua. The lyricist was Asghar Hussain Shor and the music directors were R.C.Boral and Pankaj Mullick. There were only 6 songs in this film, whereas the average number of songs in the period 1931 to 1940 was 9 songs/film. A total of 931 films were made in this decade, with an average of 9.3 films/yr. Total 8247 songs were in these films. Incidentally the lowest average of songs was 4.6 songs/film in the period 2011-2020 ( as per the statistics provided by Shri Girdharilal Vishwakarma ji in RMIM in January 2022.) I find that the number of songs in Hindi films made in Bengal were less compared to films made at other centres. This was apart from melody and popularity resting with Calcutta made films, on an All India Basis for the same period.
