“Baawre Nain” (1950) was the film that made the industry and the masses take notice of this new music director named Roshan. Roshan had made a debut with the film ‘Neki Aur Badi’ (1949), produced and directed by Kidar Sharma. With the kind of year that 1949 was – an absolute parade of films with fabulous music, not a surprise that a novice music director’s debut venture went by unacknowledged. ‘Neki Aur Badi’ settled into obscurity both as a film and also for the music. When Kidar Sharma planned his next venture, ‘Baawre Nain’, he restated his confidence in Roshan, by once again engaging him to create the music for it.

Guess what song I stumbled upon a brief while ago ! I came across a rare song about Eid on the eve of the festival.
This song is as obscure as any. It is from a movie called “Rashida Dulhan” which was made sometime in late 1940s or early 1950s I guess but was never released. The songs of this movie, or at least this song managed to survive though.
