Today’s song is the last and final song of the film Son of Sindbad-1958.

So far, hundreds of songs have been discussed from films on Arabian Nights stories of Alladin, Alibaba and Sindbad. In these posts almost all the relevant points have been discussed. So, there is a very little new thing that can be brought out and now such posts look repetitive. But it does not mean that everything is over. There are still many things which can be discussed with new angles and especially new information found on the older artists can be brought out.

#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.

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.
