The theme of a married woman who chooses her domestic responsibilities by giving up her flourishing singing career has been covered in some Hindi movies. The woman’s resultant emotional toll from her loneliness and the internal conflict between as a housewife and her unfulfilled aspirations was first explored in the film, ‘Anuradha’ (1960) as far as I know. In this film, Leela Naidu gives up her singing career to marry an idealistic doctor, Balraj Sahni who is completely engrossed in his work to serve the poor villagers. A somewhat similar situation is depicted in ‘Guide’ (1965) when Waheeda Rahman is forced to give up the dancing career by her husband, archaeologist, Kishore Sahu who is more passionate about his archaeological discoveries than about his wife. In Both these films, suppression of passion makes wife’s life miserable though the end result in both these films are different.
‘Abhinetri’ (1970) has a similar theme in which Hema Malini gives up her successful career as a dancer after her marriage with Shashi Kapoor. A scientist who gets completely engrossed with his research work in his laboratory. The film was produced and directed by Subodh Mukerji under the banner of Subodh Mukerji Productions. The cast included Shashi Kapoor and Hema Malini in the lead roles supported by Deb Mukerji, Nirupa Roy, Nazir Hussain, Asit Sen, Nazima, Badri Prasad, Bela Bose etc.

This is a role reversal to “Abhi na jaao chhod ke, ke dil abhi bhara Nahin”. Here Hema Malini is trying to stop Dharmendra from going to his job. She is calling him ‘Raja” and asking him not to leave her alone, take leave from work, or better to leave the job if he is not getting holiday. The filmy or flimsy situation, Lata Mangeshkar’s playback, Hema Malini looking resplendent in a red jacket/suit, begging. Dharmendra on his part is just trying to get away on whatever transport he can find and enjoying all the attention. All that bhav is good for the hero anyway. Songs like “haay haay yeh majboori”, “Na ja mere hamdam”, “bataa doon kya laana” and others convey the similar emotion in different ways.

Today’s song is from an inspirational film Shri Chaitanya Maha Prabhu-1953.
The film was made by Prakash Pictures, which started as makers of C grade action and stunt films, but ended as makers of top class Religious, Mythological and Social films of merit.
This film was directed by one of the owners – Vijay Bhatt. Music was by R.C.Boral. He was probably invited because the Main character belonged to Bengal. Perhaps it was expected to create a musical semblance to the atmosphere in the film suitable for the story. The cast of the film included Bharat bhushan, Ameeta, Durga Khote, Sulochana Chaterjee, B.M.Vyas, Madan Puri, Umakant, Pinakin Shah, Raaj Kumar and a long list of smaller actors.

We are moving a bit away from the Rare/Rarely Heard song series of Asha Bhosle and turn to a beautiful mujra by Lata Mangeshkar. The song is “Dil Ka Karar Layi” from “Kundan” (1972). The song is penned by Majrooh Sultanpuri and composed by Ganesh.
I used to love this song after its release and till about the early 1980s when it stopped playing on Radio Ceylon (SLBC). Recently when Atul Ji posted another song from the same movie, I suddenly remembered this song.
