Today’s song is from the film Taqdeer-1943.

I have been seeing films and listening to film songs from quite an early age. That is such an age that your experience is less and opinions are firm. From the beginning, I liked songs by Shamshad Begum and Kishore kumar. As far as Shamshad was concerned her peak period of songs was 1947 to 1955. Maybe I heard her best songs and that too composed by the top class composers like C.Ramchandra and Naushad. Kishore kumar, of course, was shining from 1952 to 1960. I believe firmly that his best songs were in this period. Many people may not agree to this, but then age makes a lot of difference in likes and dislikes.

Today’s song is from the film ‘Ghar ki Izzat'(1948).

India got Independence in 1947 and there was a huge exchange of people between India and the newly created religion based Pakistan. This affected the film industry in India extensively as the majority of Muslim artistes from all the departments of film making lined up for migration. As soon as the final announcement of Partition was made and the date of Independence was announced, the film industry worked extra time to finish the projects on hand before the migration, causing damage to the quality of films made in 1947 in the latter half. Though this resulted in creating a record number of films made in 1947 (181 in Hindi and 100 in other languages), most films could get a release only in 1948.

Today’s song is from the film Kundan-1955.

The film was made by Minerva Movietone, produced and directed by Sohrab Modi. I liked Sohrab Modi very much. Not only because he could deliver long dialogues forcefully, but because his life story was very inspiring. In India there were few other filmmakers and directors who handled topics normally considered Taboo by others and some filmmakers who never hesitated to make films on unusual themes, when the trend was to make entertaining, musical and romantic films. Sohrab Modi was perhaps the only filmmaker who made films to expose the social ills through the cinematic medium from his first film.
