This song is a wonderful fun song from the film Khel (1950). And a fitting finale, too. Of the nine songs in this film, eight are already posted here on this blog. This is the ninth song that is rare and obscure, so much so that it has not been posted on the internet yet. In the write up for the eighth song of this film published on this blog “Kahe Mujhse Jawaani Mere Dil Ki Kahaani” , Atul ji has mentioned that the one last song is yet to be discovered. That was almost two weeks ago. On searching through my collection, I am now able to locate this song; and it is now posted on YouTube.

Luteraa (1965) is a musical bonanaza that boasts of absolutely fabulous music by Laxmikant Pyaarelal, who had just arrived on the music scene two years prior.

Has anyone heard of a Hindi movie by the name “Black Tiger” (1960) ? I certainly had not. But just because I had not heard about it does not mean that this movie did not exist. This movie was very much in existence and it was a quintessential B grade movie. It was produced by an imaginatively named production house called Highway Pictures. The movie was directed by the legendary director of such movies, namely Akkoo. The “star cast” of this movie includes such B grade superstars as Nazma, Azad, Nadira, Habib, Sheikh etc.

“Haqdaar” (1964) was an archtypically B grade movie where utilisation of resources was kept to the bare minimum, with the result that the names of most artists involved in this movie are unfamiliar. The movie was a production of Shree Ganesh Films. it was directed by P S Wagle and the “stars” of this movie were Ranjan, Ratnamala,Nasreen etc, which I am sure were household names those days- in the households of these artists. 🙂
