Today’s song is a rare song from the film Shakuntala-1943. I had been searching for this song for many years. I really do not know why it was not available on social media. Finally, I got its audio version from Deepak Chaudhari ji and as usual it was uploaded for me by our friend Sadanand Kamath ji. I thank both of them. This is the last and final song of this film.

Today’s song is from the film Badi Baat-1944.

During the second world war period 1939-1945, a lot of Black marketing flourished and few anti-socials became rich having a lot of unaccounted money. As such, during the war period the British Government had imposed Rationing of various essential items including food items, sugar,oil, Kerosene, Petrol and even Raw Film supply. This provided a golden opportunity to these people to start Black of the rationed items. Needy people and those who could afford, enriched these people. Now, they did not know what to do with this unaccounted money.

Today’s song is from the film Albeli-1945.

There were two more films with the same title, in 1955 and 1974. Its male variety-Albela- was made 4 times, in 1951, 1871, 1990 1nd 2001. This film was made by Talwar productions, Calcutta. The Music Director was G.A. Chishti. A very interesting observation is that after Partition, 80 % of the Muslim MDs who migrated to Pakistan were ordinary composers in India, giving music only to B and C grade films here. However, in Pakistan all these MDs became A grade MDs, became famous and had many films on their hands. All of them prospered.

There was ,however, one exception and that was Ghulam Haider. He was an A grade MD in India, but failed miserably in Pakistan. Does this speak volumes of the quality of Pakistan film music in any way ? A point to note was that after the crop of migrated MDs retired, the Pak musical industry was in doldrums, because there was no second line to take over – unlike in India !
