Today’s song is from the film Ek Roz-1947.
How many readers will know that a record number of films were made in 1947 in Hindi till then ? 181 Films ! It took another almost 40 years to cross this number. In the year 1985, the number of films made was 185.
Why was it that in 1947 alone such a high number of Hindi films were made ? The answer is – Partition of India in 1947 and the subsequent migration of Muslim film artistes to the newly created nation on the basis of Religion – Pakistan. Partition of India was the biggest blow to India, which had remained One Nation for thousands of years, despite having many religions thriving in it. Anyway, that is not the topic here.

Today’s song is from the film Romeo and Juliet-1947, which the HFGK mentioned as ” शास्त्रीय संगीत प्रधान ” (Classical music based) film. However, hearing songs from this film, I wondered why this film was labelled so. After hearing today’s song, you may also wonder likewise, I am sure.

Today’s song is from a ‘not so well known’ film Sabak-1950. Out of 10 songs of this film, 9 are already discussed here. This is the last and final song for YIPPEE.
The sudden demise of Saigal in the early part of 1947 and the stir created by India’s Independence in the latter half of 1947 sent shock waves to the film industry. The exodus of Muslim artistes from India to the newly created nation Pakistan created a void in the industry. The Indian film industry had always been a dynamic one, because it was never tied to any particular style or system. As per need it had always moulded itself to newer environments and adapted to changes – be it style of acting or drama-classical type of songs. Due to its secular nature and readiness to assimilate newer styles and music, the Indian film industry continued to prosper.

Today’s song is from the stunt film – Hunterwali ki Beti-1943.
This is perhaps the only film in a Hindi cinema,so far, where the same actress has done the role of a young woman in a film and again did the role of her daughter in the same film. There are some Hindi films which double roles have been done by a few actresses, of mother and daughter in the same film. What makes today’s film different is its Title.
