Today’ song is from an eminently resounding flop film from a highly successful film banner. The film was Ram baan-1948. It was made by Prakash Pictures, Bombay, who were famous for their outstandingly popular films on Ramayana stories. The failure of this Ram katha based film was a terrible shock not only to the banner, but its owner and director Vijay Bhatt, reportedly, went into a depression for some time !

Film Rambaan-1948 had almost the same winning team of the earlier two Blockbusters – Bharat Milap-1942 and Ram Rajya-1943. The lead pair of Shobhana Samarth, Prem Adib, and umakant and the Music Director Shankar Rao Vyas were the same The director was also the same- Vijay Bhatt. Even the writers, Lyricists and singers were the same. Then what went wrong ?

Today’s song is a duet from a Mythological milestone film – Bharat Milap-1942.

Mythological films have been an important part of Indian films for a long time and this was evident from the fact that there was hardly any production house that did not make a Mythological film. The period of 1940 to 1965 can be called an age of meaningful religious films. In this too, the 1950 to 1960 period was the peak period for this genre. Later on the production of such films dwindled and these days, of course, one has to make efforts to find such a film, with a large magnifying glass !

‘AANKHIN DEKHI-1978’ seems to be an obscure movie of its time as I could not find any video of this movie or its songs on internet. Not much information is avilable about the story of this movie or its trivia, except the details given in Geet Kosh Vol-V (1971-1980). Rajinder Singh Bedi ji was the director of this movie. It was a ‘Dachi Films, Bombay’ presentation and it was passed by Censor Board on 18.12.1978.

Today’s song is from a Religious film- Sant Tukaram-1965.

The period 1961 to 1980 is called the “Golden period” of Indian Cinema, because the way films were made was very close to people’s sentiments, aspirations and lifestyles. Such Closeness never came again. The Indian film industry gave a tough fight to Hollywood in techniques and made meaningful films which the world appreciated. By this time, the Indians migrating to foreign countries increased manifolds and they helped spread the popularity of Indian Cinema.

This was the period when colour film making increased manifolds, but the spread was very slow. In 1960 only 3 colour films were made and in 1961 only 7 films. The number crossed the 10’s mark only in 1965.

Today’s song is a rare song, but it surely deserved to be a well-known song, but it was not destined to be so, seeing that the movie it was meant to belong to could not be released. The title of this movie is ‘Hamaari Kahaani’ from the decade of 1970s. Sources have mentioned the year of this movie as 1973.

‘Hamaari Kahaani’ or ‘Hamaari Kahaanee-1973’ was directed by B.V. Algikar for ‘Navprakash Chitra, Bombay’. Geet Kosh Vol-V mentions the cast of this movie as Master Shripad, Baby Ragini, Master Vinayak, Master Kiran, Sulochana, Abhi Bhattacharya, Dhoomal and others. The movie page for this movie lists three songs for this movie, leaving space for possibility of more songs in this movie. Two songs are written by Asad Bhopali, and one song is written by Jaan Nisar Akhtar. Music for this movie is composed by C. Arjun. The singers for this movie are Usha Mangeshar, Manna Dey and Mohd Rafi.

‘Shree Ram Bharat Milan-1965’, a mythological movie was directed by Manibhai Vyas for R.M. Art Productions, Bombay. It was produced by Ratan and Mohan and presented by Pt Madhur and S.P. Mangal. As mentioned by me in my earlier posts for this movie’s songs, this movie covers the story of Ramayana starting from Seeta Swayamwar, Kaikeyi seeking the throne for her son Bharat, and vanvaas to Shree Raam in lieu of the two boons that Raja Dashrath had promised her earlier, Bharat not accepting the throne and instead carrying Raam’s paadukaa and worshipping it, and finally Raja Raam’s coming back to Ayodhya after fourteen years of vanvaas.

Prithviraj Kapoor played Raja Dashrath, Nirupa Roy played Kaikeyi, Sulochana was Kaushalya, Anita Guha was Seeta, actor Mahipal was Raam’, and actor Rajkumar (from south?) was Bharat. They were supported by the other cast members viz Saraswati, Balakram, Bhuvna, B.M. Vyas, Sunanda, Niranjan Sharma, Padma Rani, Arvind, Vanmala, Joirabhai, Anand Tiwari, C.N. Kapoor, Shekhar Purohit and others.

Today’s song is the last song from the film Prabhu Ki Maya-1955 to feature here, making the film Yippeed !

This film was made by the well known Filmistan studios. It was directed by Vithaldas Panchotiya and the Music Director was Ravi Shankar, for whom it was his only second movie as an independent composer. He went on to do 112 Hindi films composing 796 songs. He also sang 21 songs in 18 films and in addition wrote 66 songs in 21 films as a Lyricist. So, what remained was Acting and Directing a film, which he never tried ! He also had a stint as an MD in Malayalam Films with the name ” Bombay Ravi “.

The cast of the film consisted of Prem Adib, Vithaldas Panchotia, Mubarak, P.Kailash, Kanu Roy, Master Rajkumar, Ram Avatar, Chaman Puri, Parshuram, Uma Devi and many others.
