#the Decade of 2020s– 2021- TO – 2030 #
———————————————————–————
Today we celebrate the 77th Republic Day of our country India. Our Independence is already above seventy-eight years now. We gained our hard fought freedom on 15th August 1947. So we gained independence more than 78 years ago, whereas India became a republic on this date in 1950.
We are all aware of the supreme sacrifices made by our freedom fighters and common people. The country was blessed to have some visionary leaders who led this freedom struggle. Once independence was achieved, they ensured that this hard fought freedom was not squandered but used for the benefit of the country and its population. Drafting a constitution for this newly idependent vast nation and making it a republic, where every citizen was guaranteed equality,irrespective of their caste,creed,religion and gender, was something unprecedented in the entire history of India. India became a republic on 26 January 1950 and from that day onwards, India has been governed according to the Indian constitution that came into force on that date.

Today’s song is from a social film the early era -Janmabhoomi-1936.
This was sort of a hidden or disguised Patriotic film. In those days films were scrutinised minutely by the British Government to eliminate any scene, dialogue or a song, which they suspected was a criticism of the Government. This was to ensure that there should not be any room to create or spread criticism of the Government or to promote patriotism leading to a revolt.
The police became stricter during the war period and it became the reasonKavi pradeep had to go underground for a few months for writing a daring songforthe film ” Kismet”-1943. The song was ” Door hato aye duniya walo (move away, O outsiders)”, which invited the ire of the then Government.
The first Talkie film came in 1931. The first year had just 24 films, but within a span of 3 years, the Talkie films crossed the century mark, with 121 films in 1934, 152 in 1935 and 134 in 1936. Making a film was a complicated process which needed a studio, the latest machinery and a lot of money. This was difficult for a single person and thus the Studio System got established. The studios ruled the industry and the film making. Films were sold on the names of the studios and the actors had secondary appeal to the audience.
