Today’s song is froma Mythological film – Veer Arjun-1952.

The film was made by Ajit Pictures, Bombay belonging to the producer Ratilal Punatar. He was the Nephew (Bhanja) of Chandulal Shah (owner of Ranjit Movietone). The film was directed by a very learned author- Ramchandra Thakur. There were 2 MDs- Avinash Vyas (6 songs) and S. Mohinder (1 song). The cast included Trilok Kapoor, Nirupa Roy, Mahipal, P. Kailash, Dulari, Mehtab, Usha, Amirbai Karnataki, S,N.Tripathi, Pesi Patel, yashwant Dave and many others. Compared to any Social or Action/Costume film, there are always more artists in a Mythological film, as it has (too) many characters in its story, like e.g. Nakul and Sahdev…sometimes they have no dialogues also or 100 Kauravas. Only Dushasan and Duryodhan are talking and other 98 are only present there.

Today’s song is the last and final song from the film Sindbaad the Sailor aka Sindbad Jahazi-1952.

1952 was a year which was going through a lean period for Hindi films. Increased costs of Film production, escalating rates of stars and music Directors, establishment of Star System in place of earlier Studio System, increasing taxes, decreasing number of Cinema Halls etc caused a worry in the film industry. Financiers with Black money were making films – in 1952 the number of Hindi films made went up to 105 from 97 of 1951, but dropped again to 98 in 1953. Most films were of lower quality. Because of superior music there were some great films too, but the situation was grave nevertheless.

‘Sindbaad The Sailor” (1952), also known as ‘Sindbaad Jahaazi’ was produced by Balwant Bhatt under the banner of Deepak Pictures and was directed by his brother, Nanabhai Bhatt. The cast included Naseem Bano, Ranjan, Nirupa Roy, Pran, Jayant, Bhagwan, Yashodhara Katju, Samson, etc. In some places including the poster of the film, Sindbaad is written/printed as ‘Sinbad’. The Arabic name is ‘Sindibaadu’. So, using the title of the film as ‘Sindbaad The Sailor/Sindbaad Jahaazi’ seems appropriate.
