Yes, I return to 1948 again today. A song that has been pending, for want of being located. And now I have it. The film is ‘Chaand Sitaare’. And lo, what a gem of a song has been discovered. Every time such a thing happens, i.e. coming across an unheard and a very obscure gem, there is such a feeling of exhilaration on the discovery. And also, the reassurance that there still are many such songs waiting out there in what we call the ocean of Hindi film music, all waiting for someone to pick them up and bring up to the surface and to the attention of the listeners. Oh yes, I am sure many people with a long association with this love of Hindi film music would have heard of this and other such lost gems. But getting to it and finding out that it is now available online, gives such a sense of accomplishment.

In the earlier days of this blog, I would just discuss songs that occurred to me. With time, when we had some critical mass of songs we began to think in terms of discussing all the songs figuring in movies. At that time we relied upon our readers possessing HFGK to tell us which songs from which movies remained to be discussed.

Third song in the series is also from the 40’s. This is a solo by Geeta Dutt from the film ‘Hamaari Manzil” (1949). This movie is a treasure of wonderful songs. I have sent the lyrics of a few songs from this film, which are in the process of being posted.

Raag Maalikaa in Hindi Films – 5
=====================

‘Sau Saal Baad’ of 1966 was an unsuccessful ghostly mystery film, produced by B K Dubey. The star cast included Feroz Khan, Kumkum, Manmohan Krishna, Rajendra Nath, D K Sapru etc. Lyrics were by Aanand Bakshi and the superb music by Laxmikant Pyarelal. The music duo, with good knowledge of classical music composed this RaagaMaala, one of the best to be composed in Hindi Films. Singers Manna Dey and Lata Mangeshkar were unmatched as they always were, whenever singing of classical songs in HFM was concerned. Anand Bakshi provided beautiful typical traditional type of lyrics for those four compositions in Raagas Dhanya Dhaivat (a rare Raaga), Abhogi, Megh Malhar and Basant Bahar. The impressive violin piece after the first part, was played by Pt. Husnalal, who gave hit music in many Hindi films of Forties and Fifties with his brother, a team well-known as Husnalal-Bhagatram.

I am sure all of us have experienced this at one time or another. It is just the words, the lyrics that simply bowl you over with their simplicity and their beauty. That is what happened when I heard this song for the first time recently. When I read the first mukhda of this song, it is half a line – “Ek Tu Ke Sar Utha Ke Chala”, well the very first impression that came to my mind was song of patriotism or a song of a soldier. But when I actually got hold of the song and heard it, my word, it turns out to be a song of romance, one of the best in the theme of ‘Chaand’ and love. As I said, the words just bowled me over, lock, stock and barrel.

Today, I feel like shri Vitthalpant Kulkarni-father of Sant Gyaneshwar (Dnyaneshwar)-who had come back to Grihasthashram from his Sanyas. He came back to this material world, on the instructions of his Guru, as he was destined to give birth to the Saint.
