The Shammi-Arjun starrer Malhaar (1951), which was conceived by S.K.Pal and directed by Harish, was first of the two films produced under the banner of Darling Films by singer Mukesh (the other being “Anuraag” in 1956). It had a young and largely inexperienced cast and crew, for many of whom it was their debut vehicle. The film was a showpiece of technical brilliance, especially the taut and precise editing by S. Prabhakar and deft cinematography by M. Rajaram, considering the equipment available to him in that era.

A few months back, I came across a thumri ‘ro ro nain gawaaun sajanwaa aan milo’ sung by Ashraf Khan. I liked this thumri and assumed it to be a traditional thumri bandish rather than from a Hindi film. I marked it in my play list and forgot about it. It was only when I read an article on actor-singer Ashraf Khan written by Arun Kumar Deshmukh as part of a series of his articles on some lesser known singers for this blog that I realised that the thumri sung by Ashraf Khan which I referred to earlier was in fact a thumri based song from the film ‘Baaghbaan’ (1938).
