“Khoj” (1953) is as obscure a movie as any. This movie apparently had Shammi Kapoor, Mahipal, Kesari, Lalita Kumari, satish etc in it. Out of these actors, Shammi Kapoor and Mahipal went on to become well known actors in future, but even they were largely non entities in 1953 when this movie was released. It is unlikely that this movie helped them advance further in their career, seeing that this movie itself failed to survive at the box office.

When I was a young kid, I was into new songs (which meant songs of 1970s) and I disliked listening to old songs. I wondered why the older singers could not sing songs like the newer songs, and why the music of these two songs were not jazzy like the new songs.

“Jeewan Jyoti” (1953) is a movie that had Shammi Kapoor, Chand Usmani, Shashikala etc in it. Personally I am not much aware of this movie. In fact, I am not much aware of its songs too. Or so I thought. Just a few hours ago, I stumbled upon this song, which I had heard many a times without being aware of its details. This time I realised that this song was from “Jeewan Jyoti” (1953). In fact, I thought that this song, which is fairly well known, was already in this blog. But I was wrong in my assumption, of course.

Here is an obscure song from an obscure movie. This song is a movie opening song in the sense that this song plays in the background as the creditss roll on the screen. And the credits roll on the screen rather interestingly too.
