(Celebrating ‘Saawan’-2025-4)
——————————-

Today’s saawan song is from the movie “Ghamand-1955”. What a wonderful ‘saawan composition this is. The composition soaked in the delight of saawan is by Gulshan Soofi, while the verses swinging in the spirit of saawan are by Naqsh Lyallpuri. Asha Bhonsle’s singing will take you far away from the world to the world of saawan.

“Ghamand-1955” was directed by Deepak Asha for Kirtan Pictures, Bombay. It was produced by Rijhumal Sewaram. It had Shyama, Sheela Ramani, Rajkumar, Kamal Mehra, Ramlal, Seeta Bose, Mohini, Manjeet Kumari, Shakeel, Thakur, Ishwar, Bajaj, Jaani, Murad and others. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 15.01.1955.

Today’s songs from an unknown or a less known film – Paisa-1941. This was the first film, having the first word ‘Paisa’ in its title. After this film, every decade, there were films having the word Paisa in its title. In 1956 – Paisa hi Paisa, in 1957- Paisa, in 1969- Paisa ya Pyar, in 1974- Paise ki Gudiya, in 1985- Paisa yeh Paisa, in 1992- Paise ke Peechhe, in 2001- Paisewali, and in 2004- Paisa Vasool. Obviously, the importance of Paisa had established itself in the film industry !

Film Paisa-1941 was one of those Bilingual films (Hindi and Marathi), which just came and went without making a noise. Even the Marathi version, it seems, had the same fate. I have not seen this film and actually came to know about this film only after I purchased the HFGK Volume-2.

Hullo Atuldom

There have been a few incidents in recent times that highlight the Unpredictable Nature of life. There are ‘n’-number of whatsapp forwards that bring this to our notice.
The first one I received said this

“Life is so unpredictable..
You go for a vacation, and terrorists shoot you.
You go to a trophy parade and it ends in a stampede.
You go in a flight for work/vacation, and it crashes.
You are studying in your hostel, and the plane falls on you.”

Some one added
“You go on a honeymoon and are murdered “

Today’s song is from the first film of Filmistan Studio – Chal Chal Re Naujawan -1944.

A group of disgruntled employees – actors, directors, technicians etc -left their parent company studio, Bombay Talkies, in 1942 and established their own studio- Filmistan. In the year 1942, they were not the first or the only people to leave their parent studio and start their own ventures. There were many like them.

The main languages spoken in Bihar is Bhojpuri, Maithili and Magahi (Magadhi). Bhojpuri is spoken mainly in Western Bihar, spilling over to Eastern Uttar Pradesh, Western Jharkhand. In addition, Bhojpuri is also spoken in some parts of Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and the Tarai region of Nepal. Maithili is spoken mainly in North Bihar, North-Eastern Jharkhand and the Eastern Tarai region of Nepal. Magahi is spoken mainly in Southern Bihar and some part of North Jharkhand. The question arises as to why the film producers prefer making films predominantly in Bhojpuri. According to 2011 Census, among the three main languages, Bhojpuri is spoken by the largest number of people (5.06 crore) followed by Maithili (1.34 crore) and Magahi (1.27 crore). There are a large number of Bhojpuri speaking people who have migrated all over India. This should explain as to why among the three languages, the highest number of films have been made in Bhojpuri language.
