The other day we discussed the fact that we had 400 songs of Madan Mohan in the blog and now only about 200 odd more songs composed by him are left to be discussed.

We in fact have 485 S D Burman compositions in the blog !

The year was 1935 and New Theatres’ ‘Devdas’ (1935) was making waves across Indian sub-continent with K L Saigal’s mesmerising songs. One of Bomaby’s film production companies, Sagar Movietone felt that it should also have an actor-singer of the caliber of K L Saigal to counter the ‘Saigal effect’. A film distributor brought a young and tall handsome lawyer to Bombay and arranged his meeting with Mehboob Khan, the director associated with Sagar Movietone. Mehboob Khan found qualities in this man which he felt could be an answer to K L Saigal.

He talked with her about the legendary martyr, his childhood, his time in college, and as a freedom fighter. And the time he spent in the prison. From these reminiscences of Mata Vidyawati, the incredible poetry that emerged from the pen of this extraordinary poet became the iconic song of patriotic inspiration – “Tu Na Rona Ke Tu Hai Bhagat Singh Ki Maa. . .”.
