When one looks at Hindi movies, one realises that the dominant genres of Hindi movies keep changing with time. In the early decades of 1930, fantasy movies and mythological movies ruled the roost. From late 1940s, melancholic movies became popular.

In 1950s, crime movies, inspired from similar movies made in the west, began to be made by Hindi movie makers. Then we saw lost and found stories in 1960s, and angry young man stories in 1970s and so on.

One notices that the music in crime movies of 1950s were also inspired from west. In some cases, tunes were lifted from western tunes. Since information age was nowhere in sight those days unlike now so movie makers could get away from plagiarisation with impunity in most cases. Even otherwise, western instruments came into usage in Hindi movie magic that were used to create not only western style music but also desi style music.

Today’s song is from the Mythological film Shiv Kanya-1954.

Atulites know very well that for the last so many years, I have been posting my “Good Morning” messages on our WA group. Along with the GM message, I also post photos and pictures of various Gods and Mythological events, so that our readers get acquainted and their day should start with the auspicious darshan of our Gods and Goddesses. Some time back I posted a picture of the entire family of Shiv ji, which showed Shankar, Parvati, Ganesh, Kartikeya and their daughter Mansa Devi. The same was posted on Fb and my other 10+ groups.

Today’s song is the last song from the film ” Maha Pooja”-1954 to be covered here and thus making the film YIPPEED !

In the last 8 songs of this film, a lot of related matters, including its story, has been discussed. The film is about the well known story of The Satyanarayan Katha, its importance and how performing this Pooja can benefit the person doing it. This Pooja is perhaps one of the several common religious and cultural events performed in most parts of India. It is believed that it benefits not only the performer but also those who are present at the Pooja time and consume the Prasad. That is an invitation to attend a Satyanarayan Pooja is generally honoured by everyone.

Today’s song is from a film with a funny title – Dhobi Doctor-1954.

During my initial days of career in the Pharmaceutical industry, this was the name we used for a Fake doctor or a R.M.P doctor, practicing in villages and small towns or the poor areas of cities. The joke on them was that they would wash the patients clean of their money instead of treating their disease ! Hindi film industry is replete with comical film titles galore. A sample of some film titles….Aaja Nachle, Aadam ka janam, Aag laga do sawan ko, Awara Paagal Deewana, Bombai ki Billi, Banana Brothers, Chhatri Chor, Chaar Chakram, Chillar party, Dhan Dhana Dhan, Faaltu, Gabroo, Ghar mein ho sali to poora saal Diwali etc.etc. I stop here because the list will be too long.
