Today’s song is from a much less known film – Aai Bahar-1946.

1946 was an important year in the history of Hindi films. This was the period when the impending Independence of India was on the Anvil and everyone knew that in the year 1947 it would take place. At the same time when the country was to be divided on the basis of Religion and another muslim country Pakistan was to come into existence. Many of the muslims in the film industry were excitedly awaiting their departure from India to the Utopia. This would, naturally, create a lot of vacancies in every department of film making. However, there was enough talent available in the remaining India to fill up the void. Hence from the year 1946 itself there were several debutantes. This made the year 1946 an year of Debuts of several new actors, directors, MDs, Lyricists etc etc.

Today’s song is from a very old film- 87 year old- Baaghbaan-1938.

The film was directed by A.R.Kardar, for whom it was his first film as a director, in Bombay. The film had music by Mushtaq Hussain, who had an assistant called Naushad Ali from Lucknow. In the later years Naushad became a successful and very famous composer. Baaghbaan-38 had music by Mushtaq Hussain, who was considered an Ustaad in Classical Music in those days. Naushad, who became a well known Music Director later was assistant to Mushtaq Hussain in Baaghbaan and Industrial India-1938. Hussain started with Aurat ka pyar-1933 and went on to give music to films like, Step Mother, Balaa ki Raat, Zalzalaa, Bhedi trishul, Baaghbaan, Industrial India, Pati patni, Kkanyadaan etc, a total of about 30 films.

Nowadays, it’s very rare to come across a Rafi Saab’s solo which is not already posted here on the blog. So it came as a huge surprise that this song “Jaane Kahan Gaye Tum” sung by Mohd. Rafi Saab, penned by MK Javed (Manohar Khanna – Usha Khanna’s father) and composed by Usha Khanna, was not yet covered on this blog.

This song is from a C grade flop movie called “Aa Jaa Sanam” released in 1975.

The movie was directed & written by Yusuf Naqvi for producer S. A. Mahmood. The Music Director was Usha Khanna and there were three lyricists – Indeevar, M. K. Javed, Kafil Azar.

Today’s song is from a Mythological film – HariHar Bhakti-1956.

1956 was the Silver Jubilee year of Indian Talkie Films. This year, the most successful films were entertainers. There were of course some films carrying social messages. One of them was ‘Jaagte Raho’ (‘Ek Din Ratre’ in Bangla), which tried to bring out the upper middle class hypocrisy in a metro city like Bombay. Initially, the film did not make any ripples, but after it won International awards, it became very popular. (People of other nations have to tell us that our film is good !). A social message, excellent music and solid story – the hallmarks of an RK film were all there in it.
