Today’s song is the last and final song of the social film Sitara-1955.
In India, from the time, when the first Cinema making started,especially after the Talkie films started, there was a new destination for the ambitious boys and girls to join it and become big stars. In those years any child of 10 to 20 years of age that ran away from the home, was sure to reach Bombay to try his/her luck. There are many such cases Most of such adventures failed and there are extremely few cases where the “Run-Aways’ made it to success. I know such cases, from Music Director Jaidev running away to Bombay in 1933 to actor Chandrashekhar-a Barber’s son from Hyderabad. Jaidev finally made it and he was the only Musician to win 3 National Music Awards for his films and actor Chandrashekhar became a well known hero and in later years president of Actors’ Association for many years.
It is not only the ‘Runaways’, who aspired to become big, but many singers in the chorus and small time actors in the mob scenes of films too had such desires. Today’s film is based on such a story where an ordinary girl in films-working as an extra- aspired to become a big star. (after Bhagwan Dada’s hit film Albela-1951, such films came in hordes !) Such stories are good to watch on screen with their happy endings, but real life is not so kind to all !

In Hindi films, a lori refers to a lullaby song sung within the story to soothe a child or express tender emotions such as maternal love, longing, protection, or sacrifice. These songs became a recognizable musical motif in Hindi cinema, especially from the 1940s through the 1980s, when film narratives often included strong family and motherhood themes.
