Today’s song is from an obscure film Vaseeyat-1940.

Though this film was made by Minerva Movietone, neither it was directed by Sohrab Modi nor he had acted in it. The film was directed by K.M.Multani, who also wrote the screenplay for this film. Multani had directed his first film also from Minerva only-Vaasanti-38 – a social film. This too was without Sohrab Modi in any capacity. Multani further directed 3 more films, Virginia-40, Ujala-42 and Umang-44.

“Pukaar” (1939) made by Sohrab Modi is regarded as a landmark movie in the history of Hindi movies. I as a pre teen kid was never impreessed by such talk of old movies being landmak movies. I never watched this movie nor bothered to listen to its songs. And now, this movie as well as its songs have become too rare to find.
