I came to know about a film made in 1940 with a title ‘Intezaar’ through Filmindia magazine. Later, it was given a new title ‘Sneh Bandhan’ (1940) and was released with the same name. I did not evince much interest in knowing about the film until I came across the mp3 clip of a beautifully worded song from the film.

There are many lyricists who joined Hindi film industry since the talkies came into being. While some of them became famous, many remained in the background though some of them were connected with the film industry for a considerable length of time. The result is we do not have much information about the latter category of lyricists as far as their their detailed profiles are concerned. In this category, the names of Dr. Safdar ‘Aah’ Sitapuri, Rammurti Chaturvedi, Bhutaram Sharma, Shams Lucknowi, Kaif Irfani, Shevan Rizvi and many more come to my mind. Among the ‘many mores’ is the lyricist Aziz Kashmiri about whom very little is known of his life before he joined Hindi film industry.

He was the son of Ustad Waheed Khan of Etawah Gharana who was a well-known sitar and surbahar player. The renowned sitarist Ustad Vilayat Khan was Khan Mastana’s first cousin.

Forgotten Melodies of the 1940s – 40
——————————————-
MOHABBAT KI JEET (1943) was produced under the banner of Girdhar Bahaar Productions and it was directed by Ramanlal Desai. The star cast included Nadia, Navinchandra, Leela Pawar, S Nazir, Shaqir, Agha, Munshi Kanzar, Vasantrao Pehlwan etc. From the star cast it can be safely assumed that the film belonged to the genre of stunt/action. I have no idea about the story of the film. But Nadia being the heroine in the film, one can expect that the story of the film would revolve around her role of striking out the forces of evil and restore goodness to the society. She would generally attain this by doing spectacular stunts and acrobatics which would please the front benchers in the theatres.

The pen that wrote the immensely soothing verses of “Haath Seene Pe Jo Rakh Do To Qaraar Aa Jaaye” (‘Mirza Sahibaan’, 1947), is the same pen that also produced such immensely fun and popular iconic number like “Laara Lappa Laara Lappa Laai Rakhdaa” (‘Ek Thi Ladki’, 1949) with music director Vinod, and such a comely and alluring blockbusters like “Huzoor e Waala, Jo Ho Ijaazat”(‘Ye Raat Phir Na Aayegi’, 1966), created with OP Nayyar.

THE VIBRANT 40s (Episode No. 15)LAST SONG OF THIS SERIES
——————————————————-

No one will remember that, but stories of Riches to Rags and death of an artist in total anonymity saddens the heart.
