Today’s song is from the Mythological film Navratri-1955.
Made by Bhagyodaya Pictures, Bombay, it was directed by Raman B. Desai. It was produced by R.U.Patel and Natwar Shyam. The music was by the king of Melody – Chitragupt, ably assisted by Dilip Dholakia. The cast of the film was Nirupa Roy, Manahar desai, Sapru, S.N.Tripathi, Lalita Pawar, Kumkum etc. Songs were by G.S.Nepali (6) and Bharat Vyas (2).
Two major actors, who featured in many religious films in Hindi were Manhar Desai and Shahu Modak. You may be surprised to know that both were Christians. Actors who were not Hindus and doing Hindu Gods’ roles in Hindi films, is not new. I remember, there was an actor, Syed Hasan Ali Zaidi aka Mijjan Miyan, with New Theatres, Calcutta. He did the role of Bhakta Pooran in a film with this title in 1933. Just before the release of the film, there were communal riots in Calcutta.

Today’s song is from the film Naulaakha Haar-1953.
Making films on folklore – well known or less known – is easy, because a lot of liberties can be taken while making the film. There is no copyright or any authentic version of any folklore. The same story may circulate in different regions/states in a different garb. Film Naulaakha Haar-1953 was also based on the love story of Alha- Udal.

Today’s song is from the Mythological film Navdurga-1953.
!953 was a year Music ruled the films. Various genres were tried by filmmakers to attract the audience. After the Partition, the new blood flowing in all sections of filmmaking was trying new ideas and experiments. However, in all these changes, one genre still ruled the audience and that was the Religious films. Besides the “Golden Era of Film Music”, the 50’s were also the decade for the religious films. From 1951 to 1960, for a period of 10 full years, as many as 124 Mythological films were made, averaging one new religious film every month for 10 continuous years.
Navdurga-1953 is a story of Navratri and the power of Maa Shakti in 9 different forms. Navratri, literally a celebration of nine nights, is a festival that actually occurs once in every quarter, i.e. four times a year. Of these, the celebration that occurs in the month of Chaitra and the month of Ashwin are the better known and more popular Navratri celebrations. The Chaitra navratri ends with the celebration of Ram Navami, the birthday of Lord Ram. The Ashwin Navratri is followed on the next day by Dushehra, the celebration of the victory of Lord Rama over Ravana, the King of Lanka. Besides these two, the navratri celebrations also occur in the months of Aashaad and Paush / Maagh. These are also called the Gupt Navratri, or the lesser known or secret Navratri.
