Today’s song is from the film ‘Taqdeer’ (1943).
This was the film in which 2 great artistes came together along with 2 other great actors. Mehboob Khan who produced and directed this film, introduced Nargis, first time as an adult heroine. The hero was Motilal and his father’s role was done by actor Chandra Mohan. In real life also, Chandramohan always treated Motilal as his son. Incidentally, the name of Motilal, in his childhood period in this film was PAPPU ! If the film was made today, Motilal would have elected to leave the film instead of having his name as PAPPU !!

Today’s song is from the film Jungle Princess-1942.
From the very first decade of Talkie films, a new Genre of Hindi films started in India and that was ” Jungle Films’. Animals like Elephants, Lions and Tigers were no novelty in India, like the western world. In fact, till our Independence, India was known as a country of Elephants, Lions and Tigers. When India was not well known in the world, people in the western countries thought that Elephants, Lions, and Tigers, along with Snakes etc roam about on Indian roads freely !

#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
—————————————————————
In this post I am presenting a song from the ‘1950’ movie ‘Dushmani’. This movie had made its debut on the blog on 05.08.2016 with its song ‘aahon mein basaa hai koi ik baar to aajaa’. This song was presented by our Shri Sadanand Kamath jee. The song presented by him is a nice song to listen to and I had quite listened to it then many times. However none of the other songs from this movie have been posted later so far.

Today’s song is from a hit film ‘Gunsundari’ (1948).
What is the formula to make a hit film ? No one ever had any answer for this question, so far in the film industry. Had there been an answer, 99 % of films would have been hits. However, in my opinion, there could be only one answer – LUCK ! Even if you analyse all the hit films till today, I doubt if the right answer could be found.

Regulars who notice the day and post number of our posts may have noticed that today is day number 5901 for the blog. It means yesterday the blog completed 5900 day of its existence.
Regulars who noticed yesterday’s day number may have also noticed that yesterday’s post number was 18497. In the past, when I pursued “records” more keenly, I would have posted the century post 18500 on the blog day 5900. But with time, you stop giving too much importance to these landmarks.

Today’s song is from the film Ismat-1944.
This was a Muslim social film made by Fazli Brothers Ltd., Bombay. Films made on Muslim backgrounds were started from the very first Talkie film-Alam Ara-1931. In fact, the early filmmakers were making films mostly on Muslim background – be it a Historical, Religious or a Social film, folklore and films based on the Urdu and Parsee drama company stories.
