Today’s song is from the film ‘Shikar’ (1955).
Films with the title ‘Shikar’ were made in 1955, 1965, 1999 and 2001. Then there were films called ‘Shikari’, made in 1932, 1946, 1963 and 1991. To top it all, there was a film with the title ‘Shikar Shikari Ka’ made in 2010. I am not giving these details for fun, but after you read this film’s story, you will yourself say that the title of this film should have been ‘Shikar Shikari Ki’ !

In the 1970s, Basu Chatterjee was one of those Hindi film directors who made films on the stories which a majority of the filmi audience could relate to their own every day life. Starting with ‘Saara Aakaash’ (1969), he made the classic films such as ‘Rajanigandha’ (1974), ‘Chhoti Si Baat’ (1975), ‘Chitchor’ (1976), ‘Khatta Meetha’ (1977), ‘Swaami’ (1977), ‘Baaton Baaton Mein’ (1979), ‘Shaukeen’ (1982) etc. But in 1990s and thereafter, Basu Chatterjee seems to have lost his magic touch to his ‘middle of the road’ cinemas.

Songs Repeated in Hindi Films – 30

Ah yes, another iconic song from the Golden Era is being reused. It no longer surprises me to continue discovering such reuse songs from the films of recent vantage. Here is this wonderful creation of Majrooh Sultanpuri and OP Nayyar Sb which is now used once again in the film ‘Bombay Velvet’ of 2015.

Today’s song is from the film ‘Baghdad Ki Raaten’ (1962).
The film is labelled as ‘kalpanik‘, (काल्पनिक) meaning based on an imaginary story. I would have loved to meet the writer of this story, who had such fantastic imagination, but the film mentioned that the story was by the ‘Story Department ‘ of the banner/studio. That explains ! It is not possible to imagine such stories by one single person. The Arabian Night stories were supposed to be told by Scheherazade-wife of the King Shehriar of Persia- to her husband at the rate of one story a night for continuously 1001 nights, to avoid her death. I am sure even she would gladly embrace death after hearing the ‘Arabian Stories’ made by the imaginative story departments of Indian films ! In this one department, we easily defeat the rest of the world’s filmmakers !!

Today’s song is from a costume film ‘Raj Pratigya’ (1958).
This is yet another film, with a story of King and Queen. I have seen this film and have its story with me. Otherwise also, the film’s title and the cast are a clear giveaway enough to declare this film as a Raja-Rani film. The only difference is, this film’s story is based on the background of 2 warring kingdoms, Magadh and Malawa, which existed in olden times in India. After seeing such films, one gets the answer why and how the Mughals or the Europeans could win in India and managed to rule it despite the population being majority Hindus and the rulers in a disciplined minority. The majority was busy fighting among themselves rather than with the invaders jointly !

Shakespeare’s plays have been one of the important sources for adapting them in Hindi films since the beginning of the Indian film industry in 1913. However, since very few films produced and released during the silent film era survived, it is difficult to say how many silent films were based on Shakespeare’s plays. A research paper on Shakespeare on Screen by Dr. Joseph Koyippally has identified 8 silent films based on Shakespeare’s plays that were released between 1923-30.

Happy birthday to actor-writer-director, Honey Irani who completes 74 years today (17 January 2024). She shares her birth date with her ex-husband, Javed Akhtar who turns 79 today.
