Lata’s Songs NOT YET covered on our Blog – 3
———————————————–
After my last Lata’s song NOT YET COVERED in our Blog, I came to a song, ‘Ab Kaun Sunega Mere Man Ki Baat’ from the 1947 film ‘Aap Ki Sewa Mein’. In spite of its listing in ‘Lata Samagra, and Gandhar’ as Lata song, I had my doubt about the singer, listening to the Mp3 Audio that I had since long time. Searching for the video on you tube I found two postings and both had mentioned the singer as Mohantara Ajinkya (Talpade).

JAWAAB (1942) was produced under the banner of M P Productions and it was directed by P C Barua who was also the lead actor in the movie alongwith Kanan Devi and Jamuna. The box office success of this film was very important for him as he has turned producer under his newly created production company, M P Productions after leaving New Theatres in 1940. His first two films ‘Uttarayan’ and ‘Rani’ under his own banner were financial disasters. But the success of ‘Shesh Uttar (in Bengali) and its Hindi version ‘Jawaab’ (1942) silenced his critics who were predicting slow and sure downfall for him from his earlier success of ‘Devdas’ (1935) and ‘Mukti’ (1937).

The counter has been stuck at double one triple nine, for three days now. That, I am sure, will have beaten all the records in the books.
