Today’s song is from an obscure film called Sapna-1952. I had not heard its name till I purchased the HFGK in 2011 !
The film was made by the Producer Kishor Sahu, under the banner of Hindustan Chitra, Bombay. The film’s director was Kidar Sharma, who was in the second half of his career. Out of his 36 Directorial ventures Sapna-52 was his 20th film. The famous , creative and hard working Kidar Nath Sharma was slowly losing his sheen in direction. Maybe he found difficulty in dealing with the changing scenario of the Hindi films in the 50’s decade. I have his autobiographical book ” The one and the Lonely Kidar Sharma” which is indeed an informative and interesting book. It gives a peep into the film scene of the 30’s and the 40’s as well as the famous Studio system.

Today’s song is from an obscure film called ‘Room No. 17’ from 1961.
This film is categorized as a ‘social’ film in the HFGK. I wonder on what basis it can be called a ‘social’ film. What I understand by ‘social’ category is when the film revolves around a family problem or a social custom. If not that, then at least the film should show a relationship crisis or an age old social evil or even a simple family dispute. But this film is nothing like this. The film story has 4 murders, 2 accidents, kidnapping, police encounter and multiple attacks by criminals. Embedded in all this there is a love story and a murder mystery. In my opinion, the film should have been classified either as a stunt/action film or a crime/mystery film.

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).

Today’s song is from a film called Gun Fight aka Bandookbaaz-1960. The film makes a Debut on this Blog.
Funniest part is that the HFGK describes it as a ” Costume film”. Generally, a Costume film is a film in which you see a King, Queen, Vazier or some Historical figures wearing odd, shining and elaborate dresses and who live in big palaces with hundreds of servants who come running after a clap ( a call bell provided to all by God !) of hands. This film is nothing of this sort. All the characters in this film wear normal clothes, live in ordinary houses and lead routine lives. I have seen this film, in the times when such films were in the dying stages. The cast of the film consists of names usually found in a C grade stunt film… Niloufer, Anjum, Moti (Dog), Baagla, Funny Walker, Maqbool, Bilali, Premi, Mohd. Agha, Shaukat, Sharan Asi, Moosa, Mohd. Sandow etc. etc. But it was not a stunt film either.

(Muqaable Ki Raat 1970s (UR)) (A tribute to Lyricist – Fauq Jami)
In my earlier post today (10 april 2023) I had mentioned about today being the ‘Remembrance Anniversary’ of lyricist Fauq Jami.
On this occasion we had already posted a song written by him from the movie ‘Guzaaraa-1954’. In all Fauq Jami had written songs for only three Hindi movies viz. ‘Guzaaraa-1954’, ‘Saawan Ko Aane Do-1979’ and one incomplete or un-released movie from the seventies (As per information available on online sources).
