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).

Forgotten Melodies of the 1940s – 31
———————————————————
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).

Forgotten Melodies of the 1940s – 27
———————————————————
When I got the mp3 clip of “nainan jal bhar aaye preet kiye pachhtaaye” of ‘Samrat Ashok’ (1947) sung by Binapani Mukherjee, I checked the song list for the film in http://www.myswar.com and found out that there was another more or less similarly worded song in the movie attributed to Amirbai Karnataki. I thought that this must be another version of the same song. However, I could not get the audio clip or mp3 clip of Amirbai Karnataki version of the song on YT or any other websites. So I wrote an e-mail to Shri Sudhir Kapur whether he had the required mp3 clip. I was fairly hopeful of getting the same from him since I knew during the Mumbai Gangout meets that he had a very large collections of mp3 clips of songs of Hindi films, especially of 1930s and 1940s. And my assessment was right. Within a few hours of receiving my e-mail request, he sent me the required mp3 clip of Amirbai Karnataki version of the song.
