Today’s song is from the social film Parichay-1954.
Selection of an apt and fitting Title for the film, which makes a statement on the film’s content, has always been a daunting challenge to filmmakers. There are many film titles which are appropriate, but more titles are far off from the film’s content, misleading the viewers. Parichay-1954 is one such film. The film tries to glorify the sanctity of a marriage and how it should be carried on, but its title does not have any connection with this philosophy.
The film was produced by Radheshyam Jhunjhunwalla under his own banner, J.J.Films, Bombay. It was directed by an expert director- Satyen Bose. The music to the film’s 8 songs was shared by Sailesh Mukherjee and Vedpal Verma. The cast of the film was Shashikala, Abhi Bhattacharya, Pranoti Ghosh (wife of Abhi Bhattacharya in real life), Sajjan (Purohit), Zebunnisa (an actress from the silent era), Panchotia, Shakuntala, Indira Chitnis, Dhumal, Kesarbai (elder sister of actress Indira Wadkar and paternal aunt of actress Hansa Wadkar) and others. Songs were written by Keshav (5) and Akhtar Yusuf(2).
