Today’s song is from a film having a very ‘confusion causing’ title- Lachak-1951.

Yesterday morning, one of my Facebook friends, who is also a lover of old hindi film songs, sent me a message on messenger….” Today SLBS had broadcast a song from the film Lachak-1951,naming Inayat Ali as the Music Director. As per HFGK Lachak-1951 had music by Pt. Motiram. I am confused. Can you please solve this issue ?”

Today’s song is from the film Gumashta-1951.

Gumashta is an Urdu word. Being from and having grown up in Hyderabad, I know the meaning of this word, from my childhood. In those days the family Doctors did not charge the patients every time they visited him. Instead, he used to note his charges in a diary, where a separate page was reserved for that patient. At the end of every month, the total was done and a man was sent by the doctor to the patient’s house to collect the amount. That man was called ” Gumashta” or a Bill Collector.

Today’s song is from the social film Stage – 1951.

The year 1951 gave us a trailer of what was in store in the decade of 1951 to 1960 and why this period was called ” The Golden Era” of Hindi Film Music. In the first year of the decade , there were many musicals like Awara, Albela, Baazi, Deedar, Bahar, Naujawan, Jaadu, Naheena, Daaman, Dholak, Madhosh, Malhar, Naadaan, Sagai, Sanam, shabistan and many more. This period was a fruitful mixture of old artists and the new era artists. Most actors, M.D.s and Directors who came from the Silent era and the 30’s and the 40’s, ended their career in the 50’s. Some M.D.s, not getting any film as a composer, chose to work as a musician in some emerging M.D’s orchestra, to sustain life. Actors retired and the new blood energized the film industry.

Today’s song is from the film Pyar ki Baaten-1951.

The year 1951 was a mixed affair. After the end of II WW and especially after our Independence, there was a flood of people with Black money to produce films, earn profits and convert Black money to white money. This caused several films of low quality being made. Some of them tried to make copies of Hollywood films too. Luckily, everything wasn’t that bad and few good films also were made.

Today’s song is from an obscure film called Lachak-1951.

The film was produced by ShriRam Vohra, under the banner of Shree films, Bombay. It was directed by M.I.Dharamsi and the music was by Pt. Motiram. The3 title of this film is slightly misleading, causing a little confusion about the Music Director’s name.
