Today’s song is from the film Leela-1947. The film was made by Filmistan. The film was directed by Dattaram Pai. He was essentially a film editor and did editing in several films including Achhut Kanya, Jagriti, Nastik, Kismet, Samadhi, Sargam, Woh kaun thi, Chingari etc. He did editing in 24 films from 1936 to 1998-a span of 62 years. He died in 2000. He had earlier directed the film Eight Days-1946, which was actually directed by Ashok Kumar, but Pai’s name was advertised as a Director. In the case of the film Leela -47, he tried on his own but the result was not so good. He went back to his job of Editing quietly.

On this 1st October 2021, I am completing 9 years of my blogging here. My first post was published on this Blog on 1-10-2012. It was on the film Savitri-1937. Since then in the last 9 years I have been continuously writing here and elsewhere. Though my writings are also published on several other Blogs and sites, my main favourite place is this one only.

With passage of time, we in this blog have become sedate and relaxed, as befits people who have matured (read aged). 🙂 Things that we found exciting in the past fail to enthuse us any longer. The sense of keen anticipation is no longer there. People in the past would begin to think and talk in advance about forthcoming important blog events. That is no longer the case.
Take the case of Blog Century posts. This regular event used to be a keenly anticipated event in the past, even when such an even used to occur once every fortnight. Today, this event has become more rare and happens once in two months (or more), and yet goes largely unnoticed.

In the early 1940s, New Theatres (NT) was going through some lean period as some of its films like ‘Meenakshi’ (1942), ‘Saugand’ (1942), ‘Kashinath’ (1943), ‘Waapas’ (1943) etc could not garner box office success. During this period, there were exodus of some of the artists and technicians from NT to Bombay. In this background, NT produced ‘Udayer Pathe’ (1944) in Bengali with some new artists, new technicians and also with a new director, Bimal Roy who was the Cinematographer and the Editor with NT. The film became a big box office success, recouping to some extent the lost glory of NT.
