#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
—————————————————————

Regulars on this blog must have already noticed that nowadays I have been regularly sharing older songs. I had started as a fan and contributor of songs from the seventies – to early eighties. But I like songs from earlier decades as well. But my exposure to songs of 1930s and 1940s may have been limited to the “puraani Filmon ke geet” programme of SLBC that was broadcast from 7:30 AM to 8 AM, ending with a K L Saigal song at the stroke of 8 AM. However thanks to this blog, now I have been listening to many many older songs and also sharing them here. Listening to these songs is always a pleasure.

“Mahua” (1969) was produced, directed and written by Bibhuti Mitra. The movie had Shiv Kumar, Anjana Manjrekar aka Anjana Mumtaz, Premnath, Farah, Asit Sen, Aruna Irani, Murad,Jankidas, Ulhas, Badri Prasad etc in it.

“Mahua” (1969) had eight sonfs in it. Five songs have been covered in the blog. The fifth song was covered in the blog in 2014 after that there has been a break of more than 11 years when songs of this movie have not been taken up for discussion.

Here is the sixth song from “Mahua” (1969) to appear in the blog. This song is sung by Asha Bhonsle. Qamar Jalalabadi is the lyricist. Music is composed by Sonik Omi.

The song is picturised as a “remonstrating with the Almighty” song on Anjana Manjrekar (later Anjana Mumtaz) while her beloved Shiv Kumar is thrown to the lions, like how it used to be done in ancient Rome. While Anjana is singing the song shaming the Almighty if HE does not pay heed, Shiv Kumar is wrestling with a lion. as the song ends, Shiv Kumar emerges victorious over the lion. 🙂 It shows that singing “remontrating with the Almighty” song used to bear fruits in Hindi movies of yore ! 🙂


Song-Pyaar mera jo toone lootaa (Mahua)(1969) Singer-Asha Bhonsle, Lyricist-Qamar Jalalabadi, MD-Sonik Omi

Lyrics

Bhagwan
Bhagwan
Bhagwan
pyaar mera jo toone loota
samjhoongee Bhagwan hai jhootha

bhagwan

ek thhee bavula naaree
toone uska lachhindar de hee diya
saccha Savitri ka pyaar thha
usne Yam se piya ko to le hee liya
pyaar saccha mera
de raha hai sada
ise chheenega kaise tu
soch le
ye to mera satyawan hai
soch le
aaj tera imtahaan hai
pyaar mera jo toone loota
samjhoongee Bhagwan hai jhootha
sabko naach nachaane waale
soch le
aaj tera imtahaan hai
Bhagwan

ansuya thhee prem pyaasee
rogee pritam ko usne bacha hee liya
Sita thhee Raghuwar kee pyaaree
usne Raavan se aanchal chhuda hee liya
dekh le bhar gaya ab ghada paap ka
paapee Raavan kee shakti ko noch le
tu to sarv shaktiman hai
paapee Raavan kee shakti ko noch le
tu to sarv shaktiman hai
Bhagwan
Bhagwan

#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 75 year old Mythological film- Shri Ganesh Mahima aka Shri Krishna Vivah-1950.

The film was made by Basant pictures, Bombay and it was directed by its owner Homi Wadia.

It is ironic that while Homi Wadia separated from his elder brother J.B.H. Wadia and consequently from the company- Wadia Movietone on the issue of insisting on continuing making stunt films, was now making Social and Mythological films and Nadia, who also left with him was working in Stunt and action films of other producers.

The Music Director was S.N.Tripathi. The cast of the film was Meena Kumari, Mahipal, S.N.Tripathi, Moolchand, Dalpat, Amarnath and others.

Today’s song is from the film Naag Panchami-1953.

The 5th Tithi or the 5th day of Saawan (Shrawan) is celebrated as NAAG PANCHAMI. On this day, Naag/Cobras or simply any snake in general is worshipped. This is because Snakes are considered as Farmer’s friends. Snakes eat mice, which destroy stored grains and standing crops too. Mice also spread many diseases in villages.

Worshipping Snakes is a symbolic way to acknowledge their importance to the Farmers and spread the message of environmental balance. On this day, young girls in the villages tie Jhoola(swing) on trees and sing songs.

#The Decade of Eighties – 1981 – 1990 #
————————————————————————

Yesterday the festival of Naag Panchamee was celebrated all over the country. I read that the tithhee of Naag Panchamee falls on both days viz 29th and 30th July. However the auspicious (mahurat) timings for the offering the prayers was yesterday only, and that too was for just couple of hours. Initially I was looking for a song from the older movies which could be fit for the occasion, however due to changed priorities, I could not share a post yesterday. Before I could finalise a song I came across an article on internet which was about the vanished genres of film stories in recent years. Till the decade of seventies many movies were still made with mythological stories and the films about snakes and ichchhaadhaaree naag or naagin were being made in those decades. Even in the eighties we had films like ‘Naginaa-1986’, ‘Nagin Aur Nagina-1988’(dubbed movie), ‘Nigaahen-1989’, ‘Doodh Kaa Karz-1990’, ‘Tum Mere Ho-1990’ etc.
