Today’s song is from a film made in Madras – ‘Naya Aadmi’ (1956).
The film was made by Jupiter Films, Madras, simultaneously along with the Telugu film ‘Santosham’. The cast was mainly from the South, taking few Hindi actors for the Hindi film, like Anwar Hussain, Gope and Helen (her first Telugu film incidentally, when she danced in film ‘Santosham’ also). The Music Director pair was Vishwanath – Rammurthy (their first Hindi film) with 8 songs and Madan Mohan with just 3 songs. The cast was Anjali Devi (South), NT Rama Rao, Jamuna, Raja Sulochana etc. For the Hindi lyrics it was, of course, Rajendra Krishna- the South’s favourite.

Regulars of the blog would recall that I used to write a lots of posts about my pets between 2012 to 2014. The tales were amusing tales that some people may even dismiss as made up tales. But they were true tales. In one of the posts, I even put up a video link as proof to demonstrate that what I described in that post were facts and not fiction.

Today’s song is from a C grade costume film ‘Aan Baan’ (1956).
I was in two minds while searching for songs of this film on YouTube. Firstly, whenever I tried to find a song of this film, invariably YouTube presented songs from the film ‘Aan Baan’ made in 1972. After getting tired of this behaviour of YT, I got an idea and I asked for songs from ‘Aan Baan’ (1972). Lo and behold ! YT promptly gave me songs from ‘Aan Baan’ (1956) ! I was in a fix whether to pat my back for this idea or to curse YT for its dumbness.

Rafi Sahab’s Legendary Associations – 13

15th August, 2023 – Independence Day
“2023 15 August
As we know, India is going to celebrate 77th Independence Day on 15th August 2023 and this day marks the memory of the end of 200 Year British Rule. On this day, all the religious leaders, political leaders, prominent personalities and Students deliver Independence Day Speech 2023 and pay tribute to freedom fighters.”
This is the result Google showed on searching 15th August, 2023. Fair enough. I thought it to be this way and the sitting diety of the World Wide Web is also correct and succinct. This diety has almost run its course and is in the final leg of its life circle “as a diety”. We have relied on it long enough and it served us best as it could.
So we commemorate India’s 77th Independence Day and pay tribute to freedom fighters, with this song from the film “Minister” (1959). As the title suggests, the movie must have been on politicians.

Today’s song is from the stunt film Miss Good Night-(1960).
C grade stunt and action films were popular in a section of society, all over India, right from the Silent film era. This type of ” Maar-Dhaad ” films reached the Popularity peak during the 40s and the 50s, but by the beginning of 1961 onwards such films were less popular and within a few years the C grade stunt/action films were a thing of the past.
