Imagine you are driving a car and your family is with you. You are about to visit an unknown place for the first time. You are going as per the guidelines given by your friend. Suddenly you come across a board in the middle of the road saying ” ROAD CLOSED”. You look left and right for a diversion – none exists. You turn around, stop near a small roadside shop and enquire. He does not know any other route.

I do not like getting bored. Do you ? I am sure, no one wants to get bored, forget liking it. Have you ever thought about what is ” Liking ” ? Psychology says, you like a thing when it is in line with your thinking, your values and your beliefs. For example – an old man does not ” Like ” the behaviour of ” Youngsters “, because they do not think on his lines, their values are adapted to current times and they believe only in practical ways and not emotional ways !

Just because I like old films and claim to know about the old films more than others, I do not consider New films worthless. Since the beginning – first the stage dramas and then the films always reflected what the current social scenes, problems and the aspirations of the young generation of the times showed. Old time films, to start with, were mainly made on Mythological stories and Folk tales. Later the focus shifted to Social themes. Still later it was music and then it was comedy and entertainment.

Writing on old films, its people and its music is an unusual hobby. Such people are very few and what they write is read by a limited but a large circle. This group of people are exclusive and generally they are not recognised by the society. Funnily, ” writing on old films” is mainly ( and wrongly) equated with old songs only. people are not aware that there is a world beyond old songs and music as far as old films are concerned.

Today’s song is from the film ‘Kaun Pardesi’-1947. As per HFGK this film was a ‘ Social Film’, but the makers of this film gave a different description of their film. In one of the posters of this film, it is announced that this film was ” A Stunt cum Magic and Music cum Dance Social film”. Possibly this was an ” all inclusive” film and what remained was to include ‘ Mythological’ and ‘ Historical’ words in its description !
