Today’s song is from an old film Paak Daman-1940.
Actually, I need not have written ” from an old film”, because my name is now firmly connected with old films only. This is in spite of my posts on a fair number of films and songs from 1970 to 2016 also. However branding and the label has stuck to me pucca.

Today’s song is from an almost unknown film Daku Bhupat-1960.
This was a dubbed film, originally made in Telugu as ” Raja Nandini”-1958. The system of spelling the proper nouns in Southern languages is different from most western or North Indian languages. I believe it all depends on the type of alphabet a language has. Some alphabets which are present in Devanagari script languages (like Marathi or Hindi for example) are not present in southern languages. So sounds like T and TH are both spelled as th. Thus Lalita in Hindi becomes Lalitha in south.

Today’s song is from an obscure film Vakil Saheb-1943.
The second world war started in 1939 and ended in 1945. The effects of wartime started being felt to people in the world, whether involved or not in the war. Shortages of essentials due to transport restrictions and Petrol shortages were acute when the war continued unabated and spread to almost every part of the world. Major powers like England , Japan, Europe, Russia and America dragged countries which were under their rule or influence and those who were friendly to them. This included India too.

Today’s song is from a film made almost 90 years ago….Maaya-1936.
This was a presentation of New Theatres, Calcutta, founded by its owner B.N.Sircar on 10th February 1931. In a span of just 24 years, it had made 150 films in Bangla, Hindi and some other languages. New Theatres actually was like an Academy for training film industry personnel in the Indian subcontinent. B.N.Sircar, though the owner of the company, had a very restricted role in its film making, once it started shooting. After the story was approved and the required finance was provided, he never interfered in the making of the film, rarely even visiting the shooting floors. This freedom helped many talented composers, directors, actors and the technical staff to learn how to face problems and solve them. There was a “Family” feeling among the workers.

Today’s song is from a Romantic cum Mystery film – Apradhi-1949.
Although HFGK labels it as a ‘Social’ film, I found that this film is half-way through a Romantic film and the second half is full of Mystery, hence I called it a Romantic cum Mystery film.

Today’s song is from a semi Mythological film, Maya Bazar-1949.
I said ” Semi Mythological” film and there is a reason for it. Both Ramayan and Mahabharat are more than 5000 year old. Since generations,Indians have been infatuated with the various stories from these sacred books. Actually, Mahabharat is 4 times bigger than Ramayan. Ramayan contains stories of Loyalty, Obedience, righteous behaviour. Ideal Human Qualities, war against evil, Ideal democracy and good Just Governance. In short-everything that is ideal and good.

Today’s song is a duet by Rafi and Chitalkar from the social comedy film Hangama-1952.
This is my 1300th post on this Blog. Is it for real ? It is too difficult for me to accept that I have written 1300 posts on old film songs. How did it happen ? If someone had predicted, when I was 71 year old, that I would write a New Chapter in my life and achieve few Milestones, that my name will be known to many people all over India and other countries, and that I will even write a couple of books…. and all this on old films and its music, I would have laughed aloud for a long time ! But it did happen !!
