Today’s song is from a ‘Social’ film Chaar Chaand-1953.
Actually there was nothing ‘Social’ about this film. It was a simple, worn out story of a Raj Kumar and a wicked Vazier (Dewan). They both love the same girl. Additionally, there was an identical pair of sisters too, to add masala to the story.

Today’s song is from the film Shamsheer-1953.
Just 6 years after India’s independence, the Hindi film industry was working normally. Young and enthusiastic directors were trying out their hands at a variety of films. The country was stabilised and it looked with wide eyes at the changes in the world. Italian Neorealism was becoming popular among filmmakers all over the world. There was enough material in India which needed films depicting Neo-Realism, so that the social ills could be rectified.

I have mentioned it several times that after posting the century post in the blog, I heave a huge sigh of relief and start relaxing, secure in the knowledge that the next century post was far far away. But the next century post occasion arrives way earlier (it seems to me) than expected. It demonstrates that posting 100 articles is not such a daunting task if one just avoids DOT days and posts one or two articles in a day.

Today’s song is from an Unique film – Sardar-1955.
The film is unique not because its story was different or due to its cast. It had not won any award also and it was not an extraordinarily successful film. Then what made it a unique film ?

Today’s song is from the film Pataal Bhairavi-1952. This is the film’s last song to feature here, making the film an YIPPEE film.
With all the earlier 8 songs already discussed in detail, almost all the information about the film and its cast is already given by the contributors-including me. This posed a big problem for me as to what I can discuss now that is not yet conveyed in earlier posts. But for every problem there is always a solution and I found it, looking at the cast again. This film was a dubbed film, not a remake and hence all the artistes were from the south. Barring a few main Hero heroines, people outside South are not familiar with other character actors from below the Vindhyas.
