Today’s song is from a social film – Suhag-1958.
This was a film dubbed from its Tamil version titled “Tang Malai Ragsiyam”. There was a Kannada version too, titled ” Ratnagiri Rahasyam”. Both the South Indian films were made simultaneously in 1957. The Hindi version was made in 1958. I have not seen this film. All 3 versions were directed by B.R. aka Budagaru Ramakrishnaiah Panthulu. For him this was his DEBUT film as a Director. Not only him, but even his assistant Director – Puttanna Kanagal made his DEBUT in direction. Before direction, both were mere actors. Even in later years, they appeared in a few films as actors.

A few weeks back while going through Deepti Naval’s filmography on her Website, I found the mention of one of her films, ‘Anant’. I have never heard of this film. I did not find the mention of this film on any regular film/song-based websites, like IMDb, myswar.in etc. Fortunately, a video clip of the film was available on one of the video sharing platforms which was uploaded by the producer of the film. I watched the film in one sitting and liked it immensely.
Anant (1999) was a tele film which was produced by Project Smita Society and Voluntary Health Association of India and was directed by Raman Kumar. The cast included Deepti Naval, Kanwaljeet Singh, Seema Biswas, Satyadev Dube, Bhakti, Javed Khan, Nanda and Avtar Gill. The story of the film was written by Alok Mukhopadhyay mainly to create an awareness about AIDS/HIV+ . Vinta Nanda wrote the screenplay and dialogues. The film was premiered on Star TV on December 1, 1999, on World Aids Day. Later, it was dubbed in nine languages for being telecast on the regional TV channels. The film was produced in mainstream cinema format with the focus on creating the awareness of AIDs for the people at large. The film is of 70 minutes’ duration.

Today’s song is from the social film Naya Kadam-1958.
“Naya” is one of the popular title words of the filmmakers in Hindi films. As many as 40 films were made, having the starting word as Naya- from Naya Aadmi to Naya Zamana, during the period of 1935 to 2009. Not to be left behind, even films having titles starting with Nayi, Nayee or Nai, there were as many as 29 films !
Film Naya kadam-1958 was not a very successful film in 1958, as the year was replete with many entertaining films. It was directed by S.P.Kalla. His life story is like many other film people who, though successful in their vocation in the film industry, try their hand at producing a film and it becomes their nemesis costing them the ultimate- their life !

Kamsune/Unsune songs of Asha Bhosle – 80
Sometime early this year I had posted a peppy number from the movie “Bada Kabootar” (1973). That rare song was the 15th in this series.
Today I present to you another rare and beautiful song “Raaz Ki Ek Baat Hai” again sung by the inimitable Asha Tai. This song is written by Yogesh Gaud and composed by Rahul Dev Burman.

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Anarbala-1961’. This movie seems to be an obscure movie of its time. However the songs of this movie that are available are great songs. This observation has often been made by our members that these so called B or C grade movies had some great music in them. These movies may have become obscure, but their music deserve better fate
‘Anarbala-1961’ is one such movie. The movie appears to be lost, but some of its songs have survived and have become available online.

‘Jumbish’ (1986) was produced and directed by a newcomer, Salahuddin Parvez who also wrote the story, screenplay, dialogues and lyrics for the film. Surprisingly, he had no connection with the film industry. He was an Urdu poet and writer having published 13 books of his poems and 3 novels. In this film, Akbar Khan and Padmini Kolhapure acted in lead roles.
I have already covered the story of the film in details in one of my earlier articles on the film, the link of which is here. The theme of the story is that since time immemorial, there has always been the tug of war between divines and devils in the world, the former wanting the peace and prosperity on an enduring basis and the latter worked to sabotage the same. This tug of war will go on in future also. But on every occasion, it is the peace-loving people who will be the ultimate winner.
