Today’s song is from a so-called ” हास्य प्रधान ” (Humorous) film Haa Haa Hee Hee Hoo Hoo -1955.
I have seen this film and by any standards it is not a humorous film. The story is very weak. Except for the lead pair the other actors are not so well known. Both the film’s director and the Music Director were poor images of their glorious past. The songs are not worth even a one time hearing. The only redeeming feature of this film I found was , I could see 2 old time actors in it, namely Sulochana aka Ruby Meyers and H.Prakash. I saw Ruby after she was seen in her third Anarkali film-1953. I had thought that she had retired, but she was there in this film !

Today’s song is from an Unique film – Sardar-1955.
The film is unique not because its story was different or due to its cast. It had not won any award also and it was not an extraordinarily successful film. Then what made it a unique film ?

Today’s song is from the film Patit Pawan-1955.
Most of our readers are aware of “Same name confusion”. It is a phenomenon in which 2 or more artistes having similar names operated in Hindi films, during the same period, causing severe damage to the less known artiste when his films were credited-unjustly- to the filmography of the well known artiste of the similar name. In an industry where from 1931 to 2000 period itself more than 7000 artistes acted in the Hindi films, it was bound to occur and it did take place. I have done research on this matter and have clarified the different artistes, numbering to over 100, who were involved in such a confusion. These are included in my first 2 books also.

Today’s song is from a social film Albeli-1955.
This is a very rare song and I spent more than a month searching for this song, but could not get it. Finally, on my request I got the audio MP3 format of this song from my friend Syed Zafar Shah ji. He has always been very helpful to me. I have few other well known song collectors like Girdharilal Vishwakarma ji, Vishwas Nerurkar ji and Deepak Choudhari ji, who extend their help whenever I request them. I consider it my good luck to know them so well.

chhed kar taaron pe dil ke
ek adhoori ragini
aur deewaane ko deewaana bana jaate ho tum

Today’s song is from the film Kundan-1955.
The film was made by Minerva Movietone, produced and directed by Sohrab Modi. I liked Sohrab Modi very much. Not only because he could deliver long dialogues forcefully, but because his life story was very inspiring. In India there were few other filmmakers and directors who handled topics normally considered Taboo by others and some filmmakers who never hesitated to make films on unusual themes, when the trend was to make entertaining, musical and romantic films. Sohrab Modi was perhaps the only filmmaker who made films to expose the social ills through the cinematic medium from his first film.
