Today’s song is from the film Daasi-1944.

This film was made by Pradhan films, Lahore.

In the Pre-Partition period, there were some important film centres like Bombay, Poona, Kolhapur, Calcutta and Lahore, as far as Hindi/Urdu films were concerned. Though comparatively Lahore was the youngest center, having made its first silent film only in 1924, experts across the border and in India claim that Lahore had the potential of becoming, if not bigger, but as big a center as Bombay ! In that era Lahore did make a lot of contribution in the field of acting, direction and music. Several experts have written long articles on Lahore’s standing in Hindi and Punjabi film making.

Today’s song is from a Cult Film ” Har Har Mahadev”-1950.

I have mentioned several times here that our family was a Kattar Shiv Bhakt. So, it was no wonder that we all saw every film collectively, which had some connection to Lord Shiva. Film Har Har Mahadev-1950 was afterall a ‘Cult’ film, so there was no count how many times we saw this film. In the later years too, whenever this film came for the 2nd, 3rd or ‘N’th re run, I had seen it.
