Today’s song is from the film Do Dulhe-1955.

This film was made by United Film Arts, Bombay, jointly with Gemini Pictures, Madras. The entire film was shot completely in the Gemini Studios, Madras, because this Hindi film was a remake of a Popular Tamil Hit film ” Manam Pola Mangalyam “-1953. A remarkable thing about this film was that it was the first film of Gemini Ganesan ( real name Ramasamy Ganesan), one of the 3 biggest stars of Tamil films ( the other two being M G Ramachandran and Sivaji Ganesan) and actress Savitri (real name Nissankara Savitri) who was an actress, Playback singer, Director and Producer.

Today’s song is from a film called Gun Fight aka Bandookbaaz-1960. The film makes a Debut on this Blog.

Funniest part is that the HFGK describes it as a ” Costume film”. Generally, a Costume film is a film in which you see a King, Queen, Vazier or some Historical figures wearing odd, shining and elaborate dresses and who live in big palaces with hundreds of servants who come running after a clap ( a call bell provided to all by God !) of hands. This film is nothing of this sort. All the characters in this film wear normal clothes, live in ordinary houses and lead routine lives. I have seen this film, in the times when such films were in the dying stages. The cast of the film consists of names usually found in a C grade stunt film… Niloufer, Anjum, Moti (Dog), Baagla, Funny Walker, Maqbool, Bilali, Premi, Mohd. Agha, Shaukat, Sharan Asi, Moosa, Mohd. Sandow etc. etc. But it was not a stunt film either.

Today 20th April 2023 is the fifty third ‘remembrance anniversary’ of the legendary lyricist Shakeel Badayuni.
