We have discussed more than 11000 songs by now. I had not thought even in my wildest of dreams that we will one day arrive at such a figure. My view was that we will have about 2500 songs in the blog and then we will not songs left to be discussed. 🙂

The Wonderful Sounds of 1930s – 4
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

Imagine the treasures lost.  The true magnitude may never be measured correctly.  We have a definitive record, in the shape of Hindi Film Geet Kosh, which presents the most complete information available.  The sense of completeness and correctness can be gauged by the fact that the compiler, Shri Harmandir Singh ji ‘Hamraaz’, went back to dig out the past records of the censor board, and also searched and retrieved as many film information booklets as possible, in his effort to compile as complete and as accurate set of information, as possible.  Even with this momentous effort that he has put in, he still acknowledges that the information is not yet 100%.

I had never heard of the film BIHARI (1948) until a few days back when I came across a song from the film rendered by Lata Mangeshkar. Not much information about the story/plot of the film is available on the websites except that it belonged to the social genre. The film was produced under the banner of Samaj Chitra and was directed by K D Ketkar and A R Zamindar. The cast included B. Nandrekar, Surekha, H Prakash, Nimbalkar, Faiyyaz Bai, Shabnam, Samson etc. The film had 10 songs written by 4 lyricists – Kashyap (5), Hakeem Ashraf (1), Kumar Sharma (1), Munshi Farog (2) and the remaining one song not being attributed to any lyricist. The music for the songs were composed by Naresh Bhatttacharya and Ramkrishna Shinde.

MISSING GEMS FROM THE GOLDEN 50s….Song No-13
———————————————–

Today’s song is from a film called Garma garam-57 which makes its Debut on the Blog today. You may wonder why this 1957 film did not have even one of its songs posted here,so far. The answer is,this film was an outright B grade film with second level actors and its Music Director was a talented composer without much luck. Therefore,in spite of having some very good songs,the film did not get ay recognition. It went as it came, without anyone noticing. Too many comedy actors were stuffed in the cast- Agha, Gope, Omprakash, Bhagwan, Maruti, Haarun, Chhota Gope and Indira Bansal. The film industry is replete with examples of films becoming flops when so many comedians act in one film (exceptions like’ Bombay to Goa” etc are also there though)’.

In my earlier post I had mentioned Kishore Kumar as the ‘voice of the Seventies’, because there are many many songs of Kishore Kumar songs that are associated with the beautiful memories of people like me who have grown in the seventies.

The Wonderful Sounds of 1930s – 3
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

It is 1934 and the fledgling Hindi talkie film industry is in its fourth year only.  The volume of business is slowly continuing to grow.  In the three years prior i.e. 1931-33, a total of 161 films were certified by the Censor Board.  1934 saw a sharp increase in production and in all, 120 new films were certified in this year.  And this production is coming not just from Bombay.  Of course, a major share is produced in Bombay, but almost a quarter of this number comes from the production studios in Calcutta.  Then come Pune, Kolhapur and Lahore – really just a handful.  But still signifying that the production of Hindi films was a focus at multiple centers around the subcontinent.
