Today’s song is a child song from the social film Das Baje-1942.
Actually there were 2 films having this same title. The other film Das Baje or 10 O’ Clock was made in 1958. It was a Crime thriller. Then there was also a film titled 11 Baje or 11 O’Clock made in 1948. This was a Stunt film. Topping the clock another film called 12 O’Clock or Bara baje was made in 1958. This was also a Crime thriller.

Today’s song is from the film Gaali-1944.
When I saw the title of this film, I was stunned. I could not ever imagine that such a movie title could be given. I was wondering as to what must be there in the movie- a Gaali competition between 2 groups or is it about a person who can not speak a single sentence without including a gaali in it ? I could not fathom a reason for titling a film like this. Later in the early 50’s, I got a chance to see this film and I was totally and completely disappointed. Even after seeing the film I did not get answers to my original question. The story of the film was meaningless indeed.

I became aware of a Hindi film ‘called Virginia’ (1940) nearly 2 years back. My first impression was that the film may be based on some Hollywood movie. Google search for details of this film did not yield much as most of the results pertained to a few Hollywood films of the same name in or around that name. The film did not find mention in ‘Filmindia’ magazine pertaining to the years 1939-41. Later on, I did get some details about the film in ‘list of Bollywood movies of 1940’ on Wikipedia which described the film as an ‘action’ film directed by K M Multani with a star cast of Manjula, W M Khan, Rajkumari, Pratap and David. Khan Mastana was the music director.

Forgotten Melodies of the 1940s – 10
———————————————————
The history books of Maratha empire (1674-1818) tell us that the empire reached its zenith between 1720 and 1760 when about two-third of the Indian sub-continent was under their control. During this period, Madhavrao Peshwa, also called ‘Thorle’ (Senior) Madhavrao Pehswa or Madhavrao-I is credited with recovering the lost ground of the Maratha empire and for his administrative skills. During his reign, Madhavrao Peshwa appointed Ramshastri Prabhune (mostly known as Ramshastri) as ‘Mukhya Nyaayadheesh’ (Chief Justice) of the Peshwa court who was known for his honesty, impartiality and integrity. The highlight of his tenure was that he passed a judgement of capital punishment on Raghunathrao, the Peshwa-in-waiting, his involvement in the assassination of young Narayanrao Peshwa who was under his protection.

The association of Pankaj Babu and RC Boral starts from their coming together as artists and producers at Calcutta Radio. No specific dates are available, but the expected period is the second half of the 1920s. This period also coincides with the prime of the silent films in India. Calcutta had become a main production center. Being recognized as music directors at Radio Calcutta, it was natural for RC Boral and Pankaj Mullick to be called upon for creating the orchestral music for silent films. In the days of soundless films, the music and sound effects were presented live in the theatre, using a live orchestra. What we recognize as background music today, was very much a ‘foreground’ entity in those years. The mood and the action on screen, was duly accompanied by live music that was played by the orchestra sitting just below and front of the screen. Probably no recordings of such musical works were made, else that in itself would have been a very valuable treasure for lovers of film music. wo films from 1931 are identified as the ones for which this pair had prepared the orchestral ‘foreground’ music. Produced by International Filmcraft, the title of the films are ‘Chesher Maye’ (‘चेशेर मेय’) and ‘Chorkanta’.

Today (26 january 2014) is the 65th republic day of India. It is one of the most important and significant day in the history of Independent India, because it was on this day in 1950 that India became a democratic Republic unlike how it had been earlier. For the first time in the long history of India, all people were guaranteed equal rights and opportunities under the Indian constitution, something which was unimaginable till then.
