During my younger days, Radio Ceylon (later Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation) and Vividh Bharati service of all India Radio (Aakashvani) were the two sources on which I used to listen to Hindi film songs’ programmes. I got to know only sometime in late 60s that Aakashvani stations were not broadcasting Hindi film songs prior to the setting of Vividh Bharati in 1957. Later I came to know that this policy decision was taken by the Ministry of Information and Broadcasting in 1952 when Dr B V Keskar, the then Information and Broadcasting Minister felt that Hindi film songs had become vulgar and westernised. It was decided that some songs having literary value such as those written by poets like Bhagwati Charan Verma and Pandit Narendra Sharma should be turned into songs and played on Aakashvani in place of Hindi film songs. It is said that some of such songs were composed by Anil Biswas. It was during this time that Lata Mangeshkar sang her first non-filmy song ‘yug ki sandhya krishak vadhu si’ written by Pandit Narendra Sharma and composed by Anil Biswas during. Unfortunately, this song’s disc was damaged during its first play on the radio and was thus lost forever.

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.
