Tere bharosey hey Nandlaala

After listening to some of the evergreen non-filmy songs during the last few days, I have come to the conclusion that non-filmy songs have their own style of compositions with tunes and melody getting primacy over orchestration. The musical instruments used in such songs are minimum. Most of these songs give a feel of devotional songs in one way or the other. In romantic songs, there is the devotion towards lovers/beloved. The patriotic songs are devotion to the country. Of course, the bigger canvass of the devotional songs (bhajans) is the spiritualism and devotion to the Almighty. In the 60s, ghazals and bhajans formed a bulk of the non-filmy songs.

Naachat jhoomat jaayen

GOPAL KRISHNA (1938) was produced under the banner of Prabhat Film Company both in Hindi and Marathi versions. The film was directed by V G Damle and S Fatelal. The star cast included Ram Marathe, Shanta Apte, Parshuram, Ganpatrao Tambat etc. I have not seen the full movie but based on a few short clips of the films including the video clips of the songs that are available on the internet, it is a mythological film with a subtle message of nationalism against the British rule in India. The conflict between Gokul villagers on the one hand and King Kansa on the other side was compared with that of Indians and the British rule. Some of the dialogues of Krishna were full of nationalist fervour. For instance, he says to Nand that if we continued the live under the fear of King Kansa, none of our work would be successful. In some other context, Krishna says that the King and his men have been blinded by an authority of absolute power and when Kans’s men drag our cows like dogs and keep with them without proper food, such ruler and his men need to be mauled.

Maiyya Yashoda ye tera Kanhaiyya
Posted by: Atul on: August 10, 2012
This article is written by Peevesie, a fellow enthusiast of Hindi movie music and a regular contributor to this blog.
Janmashtami is a festival that is celebrated all over the country by all hindu communities. It signifies the birth of Lord Krishna in the Jail where Devaki was imprisoned. The story is that after he was born Vasudeva transports him to Gokul to the home of Yashoda. Hence the next day, viz. the day after Janmashtami is celebrated as Gokulashtami with his life in Gokul being re-enacted as Dahi Handi. As Yashoda was the one who brought him up, she is often regarded as the Maiyya of Krishna. For me the festival entails having sweets being fried, and then stored in the house for me to eat in “krishna-style” for the next few days. 😀
