Today’s song is from the film Ghayal-1951.

This social film was produced and directed by Ramchandra Thakur. The music was by Gyan Dutt. In this film, there were 11 songs-including a 2 part song-but unusually there were 7 Lyricists whose songs were sung by 6 different singers. While 5 singers were well known, the sixth name ” Bhola ” was unknown. For a long time no one knew who this Bhola was. Many people thought that Bhola was Bhola Shreshtha, the M.D., but it’s not true. This Bhola was Bulo C Rani,M.D. He joined the industry to be a singer. Khemchand Prakash gave him an opportunity to sing in the film Mehmaan-1942. Later, the same year,Gyan Dutt also gave him songs.Bulo C Rani sang 34 songs in 19 films – initially in his own name, and from 1944 onwards as ‘Bhola’, as he had become a Music Director himself by then, with the film Moorti-1944.
