aa aa aa aa
bhagwaan tere jag mein hai
bhakton kee tabaahee

#The Decade of Fifties – 1951 – 1960 #
————————————————————————
This song is from a 1956 movie ‘Aastik’. I had listened to this song in the past and then forgot about it. Recently I came across an audio link of this song mentioning it as from the movie ‘Shyaam Ki Jogan’. It is then that when I looked for other links of this song. That is when I realised that this song is from the movie ‘Aastik-1956’ and not from the other movie.
This movie ‘Aastik-1956’ was directed by S.P. Kalla for ‘Rani Productions, Bombay’. It was produced by Gordhan Das Kakkad and it was passed by Censor Board on 15.05.1956. The cast of this movie has Shahu Modak, Paro, Meenakshi, B.M. Vyas, Nagpal, Anand Joshi, Praveen Pal, Lotan, Ramesh, Micky, Dinanath, M.S. Phatak, Nazi, Shanti, Mithaailal, Master Dabboo, Master Babu and others.

Today’s song is from a non descript C grade stunt film, Namumkin aka Impossible – 1946.
1946 was an important year in the history of Hindi films. This was the period when the impending Independence of India was on the Anvil and everyone knew that in the year 1947 it would take place. At the same time when the country was to be divided on the basis of Religion and another muslim country Pakistan was to come into existence. Many of the muslims in the film industry were excitedly awaiting their departure from India to the Utopia. This would, naturally, create a lot of vacancies in every department of film making. However, there was enough talent available in the remaining India to fill up the void. Hence from the year 1946 itself there were several debutantes. This made the year 1946 an year of Debuts of several new actors, directors, MDs, Lyricists etc etc.

Today’s song is from a very obscure film- Aage Kadam-1943.
The film made by Acharya Art productions, Bombay was so obscure that despite having leading and popular stars of those times, the film not only flopped, but no traces of it are available now.We do not know about its story, though from its sings it looks like a Love story with twists But then this is only our guess.
The film was directed by N.R.Acharya. Songs were written by Kailash Matwala- a name not known to many people because he wrote songs for films which were not popular, like Uljhan-1942, Aadab Arz-1943, Aage Kadam-1943, Vijay laxmi-1943, Mujrim-1944 etc. He was the elder brother of the famous actor On Shivpuri. he was from Jodhpur. He had acted and sung in some equally obscure films. At a very young age, he was afflicted with mental illness at 22 years. He died on 2-11-1994.

Today’s song is from the film Jhamela-1953.
This is my 1700th post on this Blog. I am very pleased with this landmark. At the age of 86 years, if I am able to write so many articles, it is nothing less than God’s Blessings. This century is the third century I have achieved in a single year i.e. in 2025 ! The 15th century came on 28-1-2025, the 16th century came on 28-5-2025 and now the third century came today, on 13-10-2025. What a coincidence !
Starting my career as a medical Representative in Glaxo Laboratories, I retired in 1998 as the General Manager- Marketing and today I am a Director in 2 well known Pharma companies. After my retirement I ran my own Consultancy firm for 10 years and then I left the Pharma industry with 40 years’ experience.

Today’s song is from a Mythological film – Sakshi Gopal-1957.
Those who write on films of the 1950’s decade can not escape religious films, because maximum Mythological and Religious films were made in this decade. I, particularly, have been attracted to ‘Dharmik’ films since childhood and have been writing on such films from the beginning. In fact, my first ever post on this Blog was on a Mythological film – ” Savitri”-1937. I do hope that even my last post, whenever it takes place, will also be on a religious film !

Mukesh and his Composers – 38
Ek raat mein do do chaand khile
ek ghoonghat mein ek badli mein
Who has not heard this lovely romantic duet featuring Nanda and Anant Marathe?
The poet talks about a moon in the ghoonghat and another amongst the clouds. Nanda with her reticent and infectious crescent moon smile is all over the song.
Have I written about Nanda? Well, maybe just a comment here and there.
Many of her songs come to mind instantly but that will have to wait for another day to see if I can pull off a post on her career.
Coming to the topic in hand, today we shall see the collaboration of Mukesh with famed composer Chitragupt aka “King of Duets”.
