Today’s song is from the 86 year old film Bhabhi-1938.
Writing with fervour and emotions on old films is like being a doctor with a very odd and unknown speciality, e.g. Medical geneticist, which is a very rare type of speciality. In the entire USA there are less than a thousand such specialists. Another odd speciality is Aviation Medicine. In the USA, there are hardly 500 such specialists. For a common man these specialities are a waste of time and these are not big income earners. Nowadays, everything is measured in terms of earning money. Liking and choice have no value. I am sure, in India specialists of the above two categories may not have marriageable values even !

Today’s song is a duet from an 85 year old comedy film-Ladies Only-1939.
This film was made by Sagar Movietone. Sagar came up very fast in the film industry and then it got eclipsed also very fast within about 10 years. Starting with Sagar Film Company, it made 12 silent films. Its first Talkie film was Veer Abhimanyu in 1931. By 1940 , Sagar had made 52 Hindi films, 5 Tamil films, 4 Gujarati films, 3 Telugu films and 1 each in Punjabi and Bengali languages.

Today’s song is from a social film “Pyaas”-1941.
Films with the title “Pyaas” were made in 1941, 1968 and 1982. Interestingly, there were 45 films having the word ‘ Pyas/Pyasa/Pyasi’ in its title as the first word. I always advocate that when a film is mentioned, for whatever reason, it is absolutely necessary that its year is also mentioned along with the title of the film. In Hindi films, it is a common phenomenon that many films with similar titles are produced in different years. I have quoted many times that a film titled ” Insaf” was produced 7 times in different years. Like the ‘ Same Name Confusion ‘ of film actors, a film itself can be a victim of ‘Same Title Confusion’ if the specific year is not mentioned.

Today’s song is from the film Apna Ghar-1942.
This film was the remake of the Marathi film “आपले घर ” (Aaple Ghar i.e. Our Home). Very surprisingly, it was made in both languages by Circo Production, a film company famous for making Hindi films. Usually, the bilingual-Marathi/Hindi films were made in Poona and Kolhapur by either Shantaram’s Prabhat Films or Master Vinayak’s Huns Pictures at Kolhapur. But then, the owner of the CIRCO (Cine Industries Recording COmpany), Chimanlal Trivedi was a person exclusive in the industry.He produced films taking the best from the industry- actors, directors or the music directors. He floated 5 successful film companies and one stage drama company. He had close relations with the top political leaders of India. After his death, his entire family settled in the USA. Normally, very few articles are written about exclusive producers (who are NOT usual directors). Here is more information on this unique personality.

Today’s song is from the film Thokar-1953.
Films with the same title were also made in 1939 and 1974. This film was produced and directed by Lekhraj Bhakri, for his own banner-Jubilee Pictures, Bombay. Lekhraj Bhakri was a multi-faceted artiste. He was a Lyricist, a story writer, dialogue writer and a screenplay writer, producer and a successful director. He helped many cine artistes to establish their careers like Ameeta, Manoj Kumar etc. The story of him finding an actor in Manoj Kumar is very interesting….

Today’s song is from the stunt film ‘Garma Garam’ (1957).
In Hindi films, many times the titles are given to the films just to attract the audience. Such films have absolutely no relevance to the core-story of the film. Sometimes there is an excess of certain emotions in the films. I had seen one Hindi film in which, by the end of the film all the major characters were shown as dead- including the lead pair. No wonder, the audience must have run away lest they would be the next in line !

Today’s song is from a Muslim Social film ‘Paak Daman’ (1957).
Why I am specifying Muslim social is because it was a film depicting the Muslim social culture in India. India is a country where there are many religions living together for hundreds of years. The major 8 religions in India are Hinduism, Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Jainism, Sikhism, Judaism and Zoroastrianism (Parsee). There are hundreds of smaller religions thriving in India , apart from these.

Today’s song is from a social film Albeli-1955.
This is a very rare song and I spent more than a month searching for this song, but could not get it. Finally, on my request I got the audio MP3 format of this song from my friend Syed Zafar Shah ji. He has always been very helpful to me. I have few other well known song collectors like Girdharilal Vishwakarma ji, Vishwas Nerurkar ji and Deepak Choudhari ji, who extend their help whenever I request them. I consider it my good luck to know them so well.
