When one is searching for music from the so called second rung music directors, one begins to come across films one never imagined they existed. Take this one for example. Kind of lost in the list of similar sounding films. There is a fair number of films that start with the word “Rustom”. ‘Rustom-e-Hind’, ‘Rustom-e-Rome’, ‘Rustam Sohrab. etc. This film has not yet appeared on this blog. So with this song, now the film “Rustom –e- Baghdad” makes an entry here. Produced in 1963 under the banner of Henna Films, Bombay and directed by BJ Patel. The star cast is impressive (for B/C grade) and includes Dara Singh, Vijaya Chaudhry, Chandrashekhar, Shakila Banu Bhopali, Bhagwan, Rajan Kapoor, Shashimala, Polson, Devichand, Sumitra, Maya Tandon, Bakhshi etc. As to the storyline, I would request other knowledgeable readers to please add more information about this film.
