Today’s song is from a Mythological film ‘Subhadra’-1946.

The genre of Mythological films was one of the most favourite one of the filmmakers from the day filmmaking started in India. If you remember, even the first ever silent film made by Dadasaheb Phalke- Raja harishchandra-1913 – was based on King Harishchandra’s story from the Vishnu Puran. This was because the Indian culture was such that irrespective of the caste and creed, everyone liked to see these stories which they heard from several generations. In those years, the Hindu population of India was 85 % ( as per 1921 Census). Steadily, these types of films became less and less and by 1990 onwards, as far as I know, there were no Mythological films worth mentioning.

Today’s song is a Fun song from the serious social film Padosi-1941.

The film was the last directorial offering by V.Shantaram, before he left Prabhat Film Company due to internal differences and the pressure put on him to quit the company because he wanted to marry the Company’s heroine Jayashree (Kamulkar). This was the rule in Prabhat film company that no director will ever get involved with any lady artist from the company or marry her. He should quit the company.

Today’s song is from a social film-Us Paar-1944.

The film was made under the banner of Sun Art Pictures. It was directed by Chiman Lal Luhar and the music was given by Firoz Nizami, B.A.

Those days, film industry had very few educated persons and those who were graduates, proudly flaunted their degrees after their names. Of course not everyone did that. The director Chiman Lal Luhar was also a Science graduate, but he never put B.Sc. after his name. Not that it added to their popularity or it was in any way helpful in improving their performance but it was a tool to make them more respected in the crowd of film fraternity.
