I have recently become aware of a movie called “Nishaan” (1949). This movie was a Gemini Combines Production. It was directed by S S Vasan. The movie had P Bhanumati, Nagendra Rao, J. S. Casshyap, Maya Banerji, B. Kalla, Ranjan, Narayan Rao etc in it. Judging the movie by its songs, this movie appears to be a great fun movie. I wonder why this movie is not all that well known.

“Panghat” (1943) is a Prakash pictures movie which was produced by Vijay Bhatt and directed by K J Parmar and Mahesh Chandra.

“Jungle Princess” (1942) was a Wadia Movietone Production. This movie had Nadia playing a female version of Tarzan. Unlike Tarzan, who gets raised by monkeys, here Nadia (playing Mala) is raised by Lions, no less. :). She has two lion cubs as her companions at childhood and then all three grow up. Watching a grown up Nadia flanked by two grown up lions is a great sight to behold. Our beloved Memsaab has written a wonderful review of this movie here and I keep revisiting this page every time I have to discuss a song from this movie.

When I saw the lyrics of this song from “Jogan” (1950), I thought that this song was discussed long back, but when I checked the list of songs of “Jogan” (1950) appearing in the blog, this song was missing much to my surprise. Then I realised that the song that I was confusing it with was the song Ae ri main to prem deewaani mera dard na jaane koye from “Naubahaar” (1952).
