#the Decade of Seventies – 1961 – 1970 #
————————————————————————
In this post I am presenting a song which is a ‘qawwali’ song from the ‘1964’ movie ‘Khufia Mahal’.
I become aware of this movie only through this blog and the Geet Kosh Vol-IV (1961-1970).
I had come across the video of this song which appeared interesting to me. I thought the characters were shown performing this qawwali in boats on the water, but it is not like that. The video of this movie is available on internet and though I have not watched the movie I looked for the picturisation of this song and this song is shown as a dream sequence of the actress where the characters are shown in ‘decorative boats’ flying in the sky with clouds around.
The actress Chitra (I hope I am correct) is missing her beloved (Jairaj) and while thinking of him she has this dream sequence. Also seen in the picturisation of this song are Sundar, Tun Tun, and other actors/actresses whom I am unable to identify.
This ‘qawwali’ composition is the regular ‘husn and ishq’ ‘muqaabla qawwali’ where they are teasing each other. The composition is very enjoyable with beautiful verses by Zafar Rahi and music by Pardesi. Manna Dey and Suman Kalyanpur are the main singers accompanied by chorus.
However the audio is not in sync with the video as appeared in this video link of the movie.
Here the brief about this movie.
‘Khufia Mahal-1964’ was directed by Akkoo for ‘Amar Films’.
Akkoo was also the producer of this movie.
It had Jairaj, Chitra, Shery, Sheikh, supported by Mohammad Ali Steelman, Kasim, Mohmmad Ghori, Nanak Singh, Akram, Mohammad, Rafiq, Baburao Pahalwan, with Tun Tun, Mohna, Jilani, Arvind Kumar, Malik, Maqbool, Joshibala, Mohan Modi, and Gope Raj with Pal Sharma.
Azad, Sundar, Ram Rasila, and Indira Bansal were the guest artists in this movie.
This movie also had the wrestlers King Kong, J.D. Goldstein, and wonders Apeman, Gorilla, Jin, Flying Horse, and Mahal. HFGK also mentions ‘Mermaid’ fish (16ft long) in the list of cast of this movie.
Shyam Hindi was the writer of this movie. And Kamruddin was the editor for this movie.
The lyrics for the seven songs in this movie were shared between Shyam Hindi (four songs) and Zafar Rahi (three songs).
Mohd Rafi, Asha Bhonsle (mentioned as Asha Mangeshkar in the titles of the movie), Usha Mangeshkar, Suman Kalyanpur, Tun Tun and Manna Dey had given their voices to the songs in this movie.
Music for ‘Khufia Mahal-1964’ was composed by Pardesi.
This movie had made its debut on the blog on 09.05.2017 with its song Sar se aanchal dhalakne laga hai . However no other songs from this movie have been introduced on the blog after that song.
Today’s song is the second song from this movie to appear on this blog.
As mentioned above today’s song is sung by Manna Dey and Suman Kalyanpur. Lyrics are by Zafar Rahi and music is composed by Pardesi.
Enjoy this wonderful ‘qawwali’ and enjoy the music…
I would request knowledgeable readers who have watched this movie to add more information about this movie and its songs.

#the Decade of Fifties –1951 – 1960 #
——————————————————————
#Debutant movie-Zaalim Teraa Jawaab Nahin-1960 #
——————————————————————
In this post we launch a movie from the year ‘1960’ on the blog. This movie is titled as ‘Zaalim Teraa Jawaab Nahin’.
This movie seems to be an obscure movie of its time and also I guess that the songs of this movie were not available on internet earlier. The couple of songs from this movie I came across have been uploaded only recently. I would like to thank the up-loader for providing the songs of this movie on ‘YouTube’.
“Zaalim Teraa Jawaab Nahin-1960” was directed by Ramanlal Desai for ‘R.D. Productions’. It was produced by G. C. Trivedi. This movie had Chitra, Azad, Agha, Vasantrao Pahalwan, Nazar, Saroj, Ramlal, Shyam Lal and others.
As per information about this movie provided in HFGK Vol-III (1951-1960), this movie was passed by Censor Board on 28.07.1960. So that is almost sixty-three years ago 🙂
“Zaalim Teraa Jawaab Nahin-1960” has seven songs in it which were composed to by S.D. Batish.
Three lyricist viz. Aziz Siddiqui (one song), Fareed Tonki (three songs) and Shadab (three songs) shared the writing of these seven songs for this movie.
| SNo | Song Title | Lyricist | Singer/s |
|---|---|---|---|
| 01 | Jab usko dekha… uthha ye shor ki zaalim tera jawaab nahin | Shadab | Sudha Malhotra, chorus |
| 02 | Suno ji mohe dar laage chalo haule haule | Fareed Tonki | Sudha Malhotra |
| 03 | Mere dildaar wai wai, hai tumse pyaar wai wai | Aziz Siddiqui | Not known |
| 04 | Goraa naa pade kaala naa pade | Fareed Tonki | Sudha Malhotra, S.D. Batish |
| 05 | Apne man ka raaja hoon main naam hain mera agha | Shadab | Not known |
| 06 | Aaj mere yaar ki tedhhi tedhhi chaal hai | Shadab | Not known |
| 07 | Maalik tere bandon ne kyon aisi khataa ki hai | Fareed Tonki | S.D. Batish |
(It can be seen from the above table that the singer’s names for three songs have not been provided with the details in HFGK or they are not known as of now.)
Today we listen to a song sung by Sudha Malhotra and S.D. Batish from this movie. This is a ‘nok-jhonk’ type song.
Lyrics are by Fareed Tonki and music is composed by S.D. Batish.
Let us now enjoy this song and welcome this movie ‘Zaalim Teraa Jawaab Nahin-1960’ on the blog…
Only audio of the song is available.

Today’s song is from the film Choron ki Baraat-1960. This is a very rare song from a film, which is making its Debut on the Blog with this song. There was another film having the same title ,in 1980 also. 26 film titles started with the word Chor…, from 1931 to 2012.
produced by Charanjeet, under the banner of K Pictures, Bombay, the film was directed by Pradeep nayyar and the Music Director was Manohar (Arora), whose assistants for this film were Sonik-Omi, who themselves became a reasonably successful MD pair with the film ” Dil ne phir yaad kiya”-1966. The cast of the film was Amarnath (Bharadwaj), Nazi, Shaikh, Nemo, Shakeela Bano Bhopali, Gulab, Jeevankala, Ram Mohan and many others.
Film Choron ki barat-60 was a story about a hidden treasure and different people who are after getting it and how they try to outsmart others. It is a strange coincidence that in this film, there are artistes who, in their real life, were fit to be in a Choron ki baraat. What I mean to say is that, one Lyricist and one singer from this film cheated the film industry, the audience and the common people by hiding certain facts. Not only these two, but some other famous actors, actresses, singers etc, have hidden their career matters from others – mind you, not inadvertently but intentionally ! I am providing details of some such cases here for your information.
There were 5 Lyricists for 6 songs of this film. One of them was “Gulzar Deenvi”, who was known as ‘ Gulzar’ – the famous poet, director , singer and actor in later days. One of the singers of this film was Mahendra Kapoor. These two are the culprits, who tried to hide and cheat everyone in not admitting honestly how they entered the filmline. Now read this –
Gulzar’s first song was not from Bandini – 63, as is always claimed by him, in every interview. He has written lyrics in films Choron ki Baraat-60, Diler Haseena-60 and Shriman Satyawadi-60. He wrote these songs as Gulzar Deenvi. But he also wrote lyrics in the film Kabuliwala-61 and Prempatra-62 in the name of Gulzar. Even then he claims Bandini-63 as his first film- which is wrong. There is enough proof that Gulzar Deenvi and Gulzar is the same person.
Born January 9, 1934, in Amritsar, Mahendra Kapoor spent the majority of his childhood in Mumbai, where he claimed top honors in the All-India Murphy-Metro Singing competition – 57, for Newcomers. His victory captured the attention of filmmaker Raja Nawathe, who used him in 1958’s Sohni Mahiwal. This also caused a controversy, because the contest was for new comers and Mahendra Kapoor had already sung songs in several films like Madmast-53, Madhur milan-55 Lalkar-56 and Heer-56 and also his first solo song in film Diwali ki raat-56. Later on he gave some lame excuse that he had not got any payment for that song etc etc.
Mala Sinha came from Calcutta to make a career in Bombay films. In Calcutta she worked in a Bilingual film ‘Chitrangadha-54’ in Bangla and Hindi. In 54 again,she did her first film in Bombay, Badshah-54, then came Hamlet-54, Riyasat-55 and Ekadashi-55. In all her interviews, Mala Sinha always quoted “Rangeen Raten”-56 with Shammi Kapoor as her first film in Bombay. She was ashamed of revealing that in film Riyasat-55, her Hero was Mahipal and in film Ekadashi the Hero was Trilok Kapoor. She always hid this fact. There are many Heroines who want to hide their struggling days. For example,in film “Professor”-62 Shammi Kapoor’s Heroine was Kalpana. Though touted as her first film,her first film was Pyar ki Jeet-62, opposite Mahipal- a fact which Kalpana always hid from everyone.
Similarly, A grade Heroine Meena Kumari also had done several Mythological and costume films before Baiju Bawra took her high up and above other Heroines. Filmslike Veer Ghatotkach-49, Shri Ganesh Mahima-50, Laxmi Narayan-51, Hanuman Paataal vijay-51 and Alladin aur Jadui Chirag-52 had Mahipal as her Hero. In her later years,she always hid her earlier film Heroes. Even comedian Johnny Walker,who is supposed to have made a beginning with Baazi-51, had earlier worked in “The last message or Aakhri paigham”-49. A C grade film. However this fact is not told by anyone.
Not only actors,but even singers do this. They hesitate to say that they first sang for C grade films. Take the case of Sudha Malhotra, who used to declare Arzoo-50 as her first film, under Anil Biswas,but she never told that earlier she had sung 3 songs in film Aakhri paigham-49, under the baton of Abid Hussein Khan, a less known composer.
It is very unfortunate that once the artiste becomes famous, he tends to forget his humble beginning with a less known film or a composer. This is because they are ashamed of it. Shri Girdharilal Vishwakarma ji,famous collector and a film Historian,rues that they do so. He feels the blame also goes to people who take their interview,because the interview taker does not do proper homework. Many times they do not know anything and simply listen to whatever is told by the artiste.
One of the names in the cast of this film is NEMO. Hardly any reader would remember this name, but he was a major actor in the Hindi films of New Theatres, Calcutta and some films of Raj Kapoor in Bombay. Incidentally, the film Choron ki Baraat-1960 was his last film in which he had acted, though in a small role. The film was released just 10 days after Nemo died in Bombay. Here is his Bio-data….
Mirza Muhammad Begg was born on 27th december 1903 at Calcutta. He passed his Senior Cambridge. One day he, along with some friends, visited New Theatres to see a film shooting. Mirza Muhammad Begg merely wanted to watch the shooting of ‘Yahoodi Ki Larki’ (1933) but, as luck would have it, his visit to the New Theatres studio in Calcutta led to a small role in the same film. The part was that of a Roman king and little did Begg know back then that he’d soon be turning to Latin to fish out a lasting identity.
A year later, he was invited by New Theatres’ founder B.N. Sircar to work as the production manager of ‘Karwan-e-Hayat’ (1935) and another chance role beckoned. A female actor who was supposed to play an old witch in the film failed to turn up for the shooting and Begg volunteered for the part. The make-up department stepped up to the challenge and Begg, unrecognisable in the get-up, did the job (and always considered it his best effort). What happened next is even more interesting. Once the film was ready, the makers felt apprehensive about revealing to the public that a man had played the witch’s role. Begg came up with a solution – a gender-ambiguous screen name for himself. And in a delightfully wacky move, he picked a name that means ‘nobody/nothing’ in Latin – ‘Nemo’.
The name stuck on and this was the beginning of Nemo’s steadfast association with New Theatres – one that resulted in a string of features like ‘Karodpati’, ‘Dushman’, ‘Doctor’ and ‘Zindagi’. He was Vidushak, the royal jester, in ‘Vidyapati’, a rigid but caring father in ‘Jawani Ki Reet’ and the devoted caretaker Dharamdas in P.C. Barua’s ‘Devdas’. These diverse characters earned him appreciation from audiences and critics alike. Further, the story of the Saigal hit ‘The President’ (1937) was based on his idea and he was duly credited for the same. Alongside his work in films, he also edited and published ‘Akkas’ – a very popular Urdu (and later, Urdu-English bilingual) film magazine in those days. Its surviving copies now serve as an important archive of the early talkies. His last film with New Theatres was Kashinath. When Calcutta was bombed by Japan in late 1942, Nemo migrated with his family to his ancestral hometown, Lucknow. He later went over to Bombay for a short while to work in Mazhar Khan’s ‘Pehli Nazar’ (1945), and then returned to Lucknow to settle into a life far removed from the studio lights.
In the middle of it all lies an extraordinary fact – at the time he entered the movies, M.M. Begg was a national billiards champion! He won the inaugural Indian Open Billiards Championship in 1931 and never left the game thereon, despite a busy and flourishing film career. He won the trophy again in 1937, and between the 2 wins, he was the runner-up thrice. Not to mention, he represented the country at international tournaments and also headed various administrative organisations related to the game. His contributions towards establishing and popularising billiards and snooker in India are widely mentioned, and always in glowing terms. He was also obsessed with Racing.
It was nearly a decade after ‘Pehli Nazar’ that Raj Kapoor managed to pull Nemo out of his sabbatical for 2 memorable final acts in ‘Shree 420’ and ‘Jagte Raho’. In both, Nemo played similar roles of manipulative, corrupt seths who hide their sinister designs behind a facade of respectability. If he was jittery about facing the camera after a long gap, it doesn’t show (unless Seth Sonachand’s trembling chin is not a mannerism ). He was particularly effective in ‘Shree 420’, where he puts on the most evil smile possible and hisses to Raj Kapoor, “Aap se mulaqaat ho gayi, is mein fayda hi fayda hai.” He also did 3 more films- Raja Vikram-57 and Nag Champa-58 and Choron ki Baraat-60.
Nemo worked for 19 films of New Theatres and 6 others, totalling 25 films in all. His Filmography – Yahudi ki ladki-33, Karwaan E Hayat-35, Devdas-35, Karodpati-36, Manzil-36, Vidyapati-37, Anath Ashram-37, President-37, Dushman-38, Dharati Mata-38, Abhagin-38, Jawani ki reet-39, Badi Didi-39, Zindagi-40, Haar Jeet-40, Doctor-40, Aandhi-40, Lagan-41, Saugandh-42, Paheli Nazar-45, Shri 420-55, Jaagte Raho-56, Raja Vikram-57, Nag Champa-58 and Choron ki Barat-1960
It is believed that he died in Bombay on 18-8-1960. Cinema, publishing, sports – Mirza Muhammad Begg distinguished himself in everything he touched. And chose to call himself NEMO – a nobody. ( based on information from Filmdom-1946, HFGK, muVyz and an article by Yasir Abbasi ji, with thanks.)
Today’s song is a duet sung by Suman Kalyanpur and Mahendra Kapoor.

Today’s song is from the film Milan-1958.
Films having titles as Milan were made in 1946, 1958, 1967, and 1994. Then there was Milan ki Aag-1991, Milan ki Pyaas-1989, Milan ki Raat-1967 and Milan Talkies-2019. Even during the Silent era 2 such films were made, one in 1924 and the other in 1929. Milan-1946 had a historical value as it was made in Hindi and Bangla and was based on Tagore’s novel ” Noukadubi”. This was a Debut film for 2 Heroines, namely Meera Mishra and Ranjana- both opposite Dilip Kumar. The more famous film was Milan-1967, starring Sunil Dutt and Nutan and it was a remake of a hit Telugu film ” Mooga Manasulu”-1963. Its song ‘ Saawan ka mahina’ by Mukesh and Lata was very famous. It had a ‘rebirth’ story.
Film Milan-1958 was not actually based on a Rebirth story, but its story was about a loving couple separated and joined together after some years. The Indian audience loves such stories. That is why films having ‘ Happy Ending ‘ are made 100 times more than ‘ Sad Ending ‘ films ! When Saigal featured in the film ” Devdas’ in 1935, in which he died at the end, there was a wave of films in which the hero dies at the end. Dilip Kumar was a victim of such 8 consecutive films. Though his initial fame came with these films, it also stamped him as ” Tragedy King” and he had to consult a Psychiatrist and as per advice he shifted to Comedy films !
Film Milan-58 was directed by Kedar Kapoor. Kedar Kapoor was born on 2-9-1927. Not much information is available about him. Kedar joined the film line in 1945 and did a small role in the film Bhakta Prahlad-46. Working as an assistant to many directors, he started his career by directing the film Lal Pari-1954. In all he directed 35 Hindi films, mostly B and C grade. He specialised in Dara singh films. He directed 8 films of Dara Singh in the 60s. Some of his films were, Miss Cocacola-55, Changez khan-57, Senapati-57, Dara singh-64, Patanga-71 etc etc. His last film was Bekhabar-83. Kedar kapoor died on 5-6-1987.
The film was made by N.C.Films, a family concern and it was produced by Gulshan Behl-his brother. My sincere opinion is that there were only 2 MDs who were real melody makers. They were Hansraj Behl and Chitragupt. In every film atleast 50% songs used to be very melodious. Unfortunately, both of them never ranked in the “A” grade or within the first 5 to 10 MDs. This was because, barring some exceptions, they were never attached to any famous or well known film houses. That is how the film industry worked !
Hansraj Behl and his brother, Gulshan Behl founded N.C.Films, on their father’s name-Nihal Chand- and produced B and C grade movies to which Hansraj gave his music. Hansraj was known as Master ji, in the industry. Only two people were known as Master ji…one was Ghulam Haider and the other was Hansraj Behl. Hansraj usually worked alone and rarely used any assistant while giving music.
Hansraj is remembered for giving initial playback singing breaks to Asha Bhonsle and Madhubala Jhaveri. He also gave a chance to his own friend Verma Malik-Lyricist. Malik used to live with him initially, in Bombay. He composed music for 62 films from Pujari-46 to Badmashon ka Badmash-79. One film “Insaaf ka Khoon” was released after his death,in 1988.
Hansraj Behl is one of the music directors who became successful in the post independence era. He composed music for not only Hindi films but also for Punjabi films. Hansraj was born on 26th November 1916 in Punjab. He got his basic education in music from Pt. Chunnilal. Then he opened his music school in Lahore and he had some non-film records released under the label of HMV. In 1944 Hansraj came to Bombay to try his luck in the Hindi film industry as a music director.
After one year of struggle he got his first film Pujari, made by Ardeshir Irani, in 1946. He got films like Gwaalan and Phulwari in the same year, but all these films could not do well at the box office. Behl tasted success in 1947 with the release of Lakhon Mein Ek and Chheen Le Azadi. ‘Moti Chugne Gayi Re Hansi..’ sung by Shamshad Begum and Mukesh from the film Chheen Le Azadi became very popular. In 1948 he came up with four films – Chunariya, Mitti Ke Khilone, Pardesi Mehmaan and Satya Narayan, of which Chunariya’s music was a hit especially the song ‘Dil-e-Nashaad Ko Jeene Ki Hasrat Ho Gayi..’ sung by Lata Mangeshkar. The song which placed him among high class music directors was ‘Sab Kuchh Lutaya Hamne Aakar Teri Gali Me..’ sung by Mohammed Rafi and written by Mulk Raj Bhaakri.
In the year 1949, he came out with Chakori, Raat Ki Raani, Zevraat and few more films. Lata sang one of her favourite songs, ‘Haye Chanda Gaye Pardes Chakori Yahan Ro Ro Mare..’ in Chakori, which became very popular and it helped Hansraj to gain popularity among music lovers. ‘Jin Raaton Mein Neend Ud Jaati Hai..’ sung by Mohammed Rafi in Raat Ki Raani was a nationwide hit.
In 1950-51 he gave many hit songs with Lata Mangeshkar, Geeta Dutt and Suraiyya. Songs of Kisi Ki Yaad became very popular soon after the release of the film. ‘Koi Mujhko Na Bulaye..’ and ‘Tadapta Chhod Kar Mujhko Kahaan Tum Reh Gaye..’ both sung by Geeta Dutt and ‘O Jaane Wale Ye Kya Kiya..’ by Mohammed Rafi gained immense popularity. In 1952 he introduced Madhubala Jhaveri as a playback singer in Apni Izzat and Jaggu. Madhubala sang ‘Dil Mere Tera Diwaana..’ with Talat Mehmood and ‘Meethi Meethi Loriyaan Main Dheere Dheere Gaoon..’ (both Apni Izzat) featured her solo voice. In 1954, he again came out with musical films like Dost and Khaiber. ‘Aaye Bhi Akela Jaye Bhi Akela..’ from Dost (1954) sung by Talat Mehmood was among one of his memorable compositions.
He continued to give his best in films like Rajdhani, Milan, Miss Bombay, Changez Khan and Saawan. Songs like ‘Bhool Ja Sapne Suhane..’ from Rajdhani (1956), ‘Mohabbat Zinda rehti Hai..’ from Changez Khan (1957), ‘ Jab Raat Nahi Katti..’ from Changez Khan (1957), ‘Zindagi Bhar Gham Judaai Ka..’ from Miss Bombay (1957), ‘Haseen Ho Khuda To Nahi..’ from Mud Mud Ke Na Dekh (1960), ‘Bheega Bheega Pyar Ka Sama..’ from Saawan (1959) and ‘Tujhko Dhundu To Dhoondu Kahan..’ from Milan (1959) crossed all the barriers of success and Hansraj Behl’s name was on the lips of every music lover.
After all these successful films he continued to give music till 1969 but failed to give any hit because his later films were either stunts or fantasy films with little scope for having good music. His last hit song was an all time great creation ‘Jahan Daal Daal Pe Sone Ki Chidiya Karti Hai Basera..’ which was sung by Mohammed Rafi for the film Sikandar-e-Aazam in 1965.
Hansraj Behl died of Cancer in Bombay on 20-5-1984.
The cast of the film Milan-1958 was Nalini jaywant, Ajit, Nishi, Helen, Tiwari, Tun Tun, Narmada Shankar etc. Nalini Jaywant worked with Ajit in 10 films and with Ashok Kumar in 11 films. In this matter Nirupa Roy beats all Heroines. She worked with balraj sahani in 12 films, With Jairaj in 16 films, with Trilok Kapoor in 18 films and ….hold your breath, with Ashok Kumar, she worked in 21 Films ! (By the way she acted as Amitabh’s mother in 12 films too !).
The story of the film was….
Ajit and Nalini love each other and get married. They also have one son. While the son is growing up, they have serious differences and they separate from each other. Nalini , with her son, shifts to another town and works as a Nurse in a Hospital. Ajit gets involved with another girl-Nishi. After a few months, Nishi cheats Ajit and leaves him. Ajit gets disgusted with his life and leaves the town. By coincidence he too lands in the same town where Nalini and his son are living. They do not know about each other’s existence in the same town. One day, Ajit meets with an accident and is brought to the same hospital where Nalini is serving. She is shocked to see Ajit. She looks after him with care and as soon as he is well enough to be discharged, Nalini resigns from the hospital and packs her luggage to shift to another town- to be away from Ajit. Ajit enquires at the hospital about her address and goes to her house. Ajit begs her pardon and pleads her to be with him again. Both weep a lot together and then accept each other happily !
Today’s song is a duet by Rafi and Shamshad Begum, who have sung some of the best duets in Hindi films. Together, they sang 160 duets in their career. I am sure, more than 50 % will account for my favourites. Let us enjoy this duet now….

98th birth anniversary of Mohammed Rafi sahab
Rafi Sahab’s Legendary Associations – 11
How the human mind works and the vagaries of human memory system, the scientists are still figuring out. I, for one, am very grateful that my memory brings forth to the mind a significant Rafi song to write a post at the most unexpected moment.
Since last few months, things have been very hectic at the domestic front, for no real tangible reason. They just are somewhat crazy, with stress levels running high on the work front too. Family events, travels notwithstanding, I should have written a few more posts this year, if only I could focus. So much so that I was on the verge of advising the HOD that the office needs a “self-help-stress management” “how to make the office atmosphere positive” “How to have healthy work relations with colleagues” sort of workshops/seminar. Not that I am going to do any such thing as advising the HOD, at-least I am trying not to. The thing is, a close friend expressed an opinion, if any such events are organised at the office, this will add to the stress levels of the already stressed-out officers.
I could also suggest some soothing music to be played on the non-existing PA system. There really are many classic music compositions, human civilization has produced. Many of them are having soothing qualities, some have the capacity to amaze the listener, that something like this could be created. There are many amazing and wonderful things, that we human can be grateful for. Sounds of music is one of them. The simplest things in life, which are free are to be valued and be thankful for. I thought the pandemic and tribulations it brought to humans, would make us all better humans, and teach us thankfulness, for many of the blessings which we all take to granted.
Post pandemic, as the world is back to normal, the massive restrictions during 2020 & 2021 are all but forgotten, which seem like a bad dream. Only sometimes I think of those days when work from home was possible, that was one advantage.
I honestly feel, it has had an impact on the evolution of humans. It has had huge psychological impact on young kids and elders. It is to be hoped that kids with the resilience of the young, will get past this bad dream. But the reminders of the bad dream are everywhere around us. The other day, I saw those round circles painted on the floor outside a supermarket. We were made to stand in queue to buy groceries, only a few people allowed inside at a time, to buy essentials for gods sake. If this was not a trial of psychological bondage training imparted to masses, then what was it? No wonder, humans, evolved after the pandemic are more disgruntled than before.
As the scientific community is grappling with the impact on the mental health (which is the new pandemic), lowered immunity in young and old, it is the responsibility and duty of able-minded people in the society to take great care, of their social surroundings, environment and individuals who may need a word or two, of care, of encouragement, of belief, of faith that things do not remain the same, they always change for the better.
No doubt that the research papers and thesis that come out on the impact of COVID – 19 on humanity, will point to the great stress it put on the psychological strength of the world’s populace. For this, the disease is not at fault, but the handling of the crisis, is the culprit. Having said this, I admit that being judgmental in hindsight is easy. But dealing with the aftermath is not going to be easy and it requires all the resilience of humanity.
I read about the voyager 1 & 2 sometime back and about the recordings of sounds to earth which they carried. With great hope I looked for the details of Indian songs in the 90 minutes music record. I found this Hindustani classical song is part of that.
| Bhairavi: Jaat Kahan Ho | Traditional | Kesarbai Kerkar (vocals) with harmonium, Tanpura and tabla accompaniment | Recorded in Bombay, April 1953 | Hindustani Shastriya Sangeet (Indian classical music) | 3:30 |
Hindustani classical music is an important component of sound of earth in all senses, so its inclusion in the above record is not a surprise. For our part, we have here a hindi film song which is a Hindustani classical song, by Mohammed Rafi Sahab. This is from the film Mrig Trishna(1975), written and composed by Shambhu Sen. This is a soothing, mental massage, critically acclaimed song. I was aware of the song and have heard it many times before today. I have also heard a great fan of Rafi Sahab, singing this song, and he was all praises for this rendition by the maestro. Obviously, he knows a great deal more about classical music than me. I had seen the song many times of TV too. So as soon as he said the mukhda before singing it, I was able to recollect even the filming of the song, and Hema Malini dancing to it. This was a few years ago. But today seeing the song again, I have also remembered reading somewhere, about the location shoot of the song. It is filmed at an actual location of some Haveli or fort is Rajasthan. The original art work and carpet and the carving in the pillars and jharokhas is visible in the hall.
Before starting this post I had checked and could not find the film Mrig Trishna (1975) in the list. But I just thought of checking it again, and now I find that 2 songs from this film are posted and this particular song is posted here.
So here we are, in the 99th year of Rafi Sahab, we are soon going to enter the 100th year of Rafi Sahab. I hope and pray, that we maintain the equilibrium as humanity and take inspiration from the personality of Rafi Sahab and his life’s principles.
Rafi Sahab, keep spreading happiness and peace to the world and beyond, even if the Voyager, has missed out on including your amazing voice. No doubt, as one of the super creations, Rafi sahab has made his contribution to this civilization and increased the ‘shobhaa’ of this ‘sansaar’.
I am posting this funny group song from the film Madhur Milan(1955), which the antithesis of Hindustani classical, which was my original idea for this post. Geeta Dutt and A. R. Ojha are giving company or having fun with Rafi sahab in the song composed by Bulo C. Rani. Raja Mehdi Ali Khan is the lyricist. Among the legendary associations, Geeta Dutt, is next to only Asha Bhonsle. Raja Mehdi Ali Khan was also part of Madan Mohan’s team for a time. While Bulo C. Rani has composed many sweet renditions by Rafi sahab in early 50’s, some of which I have posted.
So we enjoy this social comic song by this team on this birth anniversary occasion.
Song-Joru ne nikaala hai deewaala mere ghar ka (Madhur Milan)(1955) singers-Mohammed Rafi, A R Oza, Geeta Dutt, Lyrics- Raja Mehdi Ali Khan, MD-Bulo C. Rani

Today’s song is a duet from the film ‘Her Highness’ (1946).
The year 1946 was an year which saw many changes in the film industry. The 2nd World War had just ended. Rationing and control on many items had created black marketing. This made many people millionaires. The extra income started getting invested in film making. The increased cost of raw films made film making 7 to 8 times costlier. A film which was made in about 1 Lakh rupees in 1940, needed 8 Lakhs now. Studio system was waning and artiste rates increased in lakhs instead of thousands. In 1945, only 74 films were made. This number increased to 153 films in 1946. Some quality films were made in 1946, indicating the changing face of film making.
Film ‘Dharati Ke Lal’ (1946) was made by IPTA people and it became the first film to be exhibited in Russia. ‘Neecha Nagar’ (1946) won the Grand Prix award in the French Film Festival. Film ‘Dr. Kotnis Ki Amar Kahani’ (1946) was dubbed in English as ‘The journey of Dr. Kotnis’. It was shown in the USA and then in the Venice Film Festival. Two musical films – ‘Anmol Ghadi’ and ‘Shahjahan’ were made in 1946. Year 1946 also saw the debut of several stars and artistes. In fact one can call 1946 as the ‘debut year’ of the Hindi film industry. See this….
Nirupa Roy debuted in film ‘Amar Raaj’.
Geeta Bali debuted with a dance in film ‘Badnami’
Geeta Roy sang her first film song in film ‘Bhakta Prahlad’

So, you will find the year 1946 was truly an year of change. The winds of Partition were already blowing and the second line of supplementary artistes was ready to replace the migrators, after the Partition.
‘Her Highness’, a stunt film was made by Bharat Talkies. The cast of the film consisted of the usual members of action/stunt films. Sarla Devi, Dilawar, Mehdi Raja, Madhukar Gupte, Meerabai, Prakash, Agha Peerjaan, Narmada Shankar etc. Lyricists were Roopbani and Madhup Sharma. However HFGK does not credit any Lyricist for any specific song. It also does not mention the singers’ names of any song.
The film was directed by stunt film veteran – Balwant Bhatt. He was the elder brother of Nanabhai Bhatt, who too was an expert in directing B and C grade films. One sees this kind of close relatives following each other from the very beginning of the talkie films. Even Zubeida, heroine of the first talkie – ‘Alam Ara’ (1931) had her 2 sisters and mother in this profession. If I start listing such names, it will be a long list. One interesting feature of Balwant Bhatt was that he had also directed the film ‘His Highness’ in the year 1937. If there were films like ‘Momma Highness’ and ‘Papa Highness’, I am sure Balwant Bhatt would have directed those films too !
The elder brother of Nanabhai Bhatt, Balwant Bhatt was born at Porbandar,Gujarat on 13-1-1909. Balwant started his career by assisting Naval Gandhi in 1930-31 and Pesi Karani at Imperial Film company and then NB Vakil at Sagar Studios in 1932.
A prolific director of second tier, action oriented films, Bhatt’s first film as a director was Royal Film Company’s 1932 silent thriller ‘Passing Show’ which featured popular stunt-film actor Navinchandra. He turned director with the advent of talkie films and joined Prakash Pictures with ‘Bambai Ki Mohini’ (aka ‘Actress’) (1934) starring Miss Panna and Miss Alaknanda. His last one was ‘Nagin Aur Sapera’ (1966). He directed 33 films, mostly stunt and C grade films.
Bhatt directed action star Fearless Nadia in ‘Delhi Express’ (1949) and ‘Circuswale’ (1950) as well as the comedian Bhagwan in ‘Joker’ (1949) and ‘Jodidar’ (1950), and even had opportunities to work with bigger name’s such as Bibbo in ‘Suhaag’ (1940), Maya Banerjee in ‘Madhusudan’ (1941), and Prithviraj Kapoor in ‘Aankh Ki Sharam’ (1943). But the vast majority of Bhatt’s output was in the category of B-grade films.
He directed some Gujarati films like ‘Sansar Leela’, ‘Seth Sagsha’, ‘Divadandi’, ‘Snehlata’ etc. He was the producer of ‘Dillagi’ (1942), ‘Gunehgar’ (1953), ‘Alif Laila’ (1953), ‘Sindbad The Sailor’ (1952), ‘Son Of Sindbad’ (1958), ‘Police Detective’ (1960) etc. etc. ‘Diwadandi’ (1950) became famous for its song – ”Taari Aankhni Afini”, sung by Dilip Dholakia with music by Ajit Merchant. His film ‘Mordhwaj’ (1952) was the debut film for MD Narayan Dutt. Balwant Bhatt died on 7-2-1965, at Bombay.
Today’s song is a rare song, but we do not know who wrote or who sung this duet. HC Bali was the music director.
Harishchandra Bali aka HC Bali was born on 10-3-1906 at Jalandhar, Punjab. He received early training in music from Pt. Tola Ram and Ustad Maula Baksh of Talwandi Gharana. He was also a disciple of Bhaskarbuwa Bakhale and Pt. Dilip Chandra Vedi. He adopted their styles. Bali came to Bombay. He entered film by acting as a hero in the film ‘Naqsh-e-Sulemani’ (1933). In later life also he acted in a few more films. As a MD, his first film was ‘Aurat Ka Dil’ (1933) and last film was ‘Janta’ (1947).
He gave music to 26 films. Among these were first films of Prof. Pt. Ramanand Sharma, ‘Watan Parast’ (1934), first film of actress Pramila, ‘Bhikarin’ (1935), first film of Debaki Bose in Bombay, ‘Jeewan Natak’ (1935). In the film ‘Pati Patni’ (1939), Naushad was his assistant and composed a few songs also. In 1942, Bali gave music to ‘Aple Ghar’, the Marathi version of ‘Apna Ghar’ (1941). He was the MD for the last film of Vishnupant Pagnis, ‘Mahatma Vidur’ (1943) and in film ‘Janta’ (1947), he gave the opportunity to lyricist Rajendra Krishna for the first time.
Bali also gets the credit for bringing KL Saigal to limelight. Both he and Saigal were from Jalandhar. When Saigal was in Calcutta for his job as a typewriter salesman, Bali was living with RC Boral. Bali told Boral about Saigal’s singing and the rest is history. Bali came into news in the late 50s, when he said that Lata had sung 4 songs for his film ‘Seedha Rasta’ in 1941 and thus claimed to introduce her to film singing. However, Lata clarified that till the death of her father Dinanath Mangeshkar in 1942, she was in Kolhapur and there was no question of her singing in films in 1941. Thus Bali’s claim got scuttled.
After 1947, Bali retired from films and returned to Jalandhar. He started his own music school, ‘Sangeet Vihar’. He became famous as a music Guru to many singers in later years. Bali also sang on radio and was an A grade artiste of All India Radio. He also wrote a few books on music – ‘Sangeet Vigyan’ in 4 volumes and ‘Sangeet Prakash’ in Punjabi language. These books were published by Punjab State University Text Book Board in Chandigarh. Harishchandra Bali died on 24-6-1976 at Jalandhar.
Here is the rare song from the film ‘Her Highness’. The names of the singers of this duet are not even mentioned on the gramophone record, but I feel the song must have been sung by the cast members itself, to save expenses. Such tactics were followed by the producers while making stunt C grade films.
With this song, film ‘Her Highness’ makes it’s debut on the Blog.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2012-2022) – Song No. 74
————————————————————————————–
This date ten years ago (viz 25 July 2012) saw three songs from three different movies getting covered in the blog.
Here are the details:-
| Blog Post number | Song | Movie (Year) | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6308 | Inhi logon ne le leenha dupatta mora | Himmat(1941) | 2 songs covered out of 10 |
| 6309 | Suno suno he nar naari | Aage Badho(1947) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
| 6309 | Jawaan jawaan husn ke rangeen ye kaafile | Adventures of Robinhood (1965) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
It can be seen that two movies (out of three) whose songs were covered ten years ago on this date (25 July 2012) have since been YIPPEED. That leaves us with just one movie which is eligible for Blog Ten Years today (25 July 2022).
The eligible movie is “Himmat”(1941).
‘Himmat'(1941) was directed by Roop K Shorey for Kamal Movietone Limited. The movie had Ragni aka Ragini, Manorama, Majnu, Beg aka Baig, Zahoor Shah, Radha, Ghulam Qadir, Maalaa, Ramesh, Ranchhod, Jaan, Malti etc in it.
‘Himmat’ (1941) had ten songs in it. Two songs have been covered in the past.
Here is the third song from ‘Himmat’ (1941) to appear in the blog.
HFGK is silent about the singers of the song. But going by the comments posted by some knowledgeable readers on YouTube, I have considered Umrazia Begam and Karimdad Khan as the singers of this song. Aziz Kashmiri is the lyricist. Music is composed by Pt Gobindram.
Only audio of the song is available. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the picturisation of the song.
Lyrics of the song were sent to me by Prakashchandra.
