Today’s song is from the film Sanskar-1958.

There were 3 films made with the same title, in 1940, 1952 and 1958. This film was made by Filmistan. It was directed by Chaturbhuj Doshi. This was ,incidentally, his last film as a Hindi film director.

During the early era of talkie films, till the 1960s, there was a horde of Gujarati directors and producers. Bhatts, Trivedi, Thakur, Shahs, Desais, Pancholi, Doshi, Daves were some names frequently found directing various genres. Usually they specialised in certain classes and types of films. The Bhatts (Shankar and Vijay) liked to do Mythological films, Ramnik Shah handled stunt, action, fantasy films, Jayant Desai was social film oriented etc.

Today’s song is from a so called “social” film made by Filmistan. The story of this film clearly indicates that it was a “Costume” film about the usual King, Queen and a wicked Vazir. I am surprised how they could do such a blunder. Surely, the posters would have given away the real Genre of the film and no one would have accepted this film as a Social film, as claimed by Filmistan. Maybe it was an error by HFGK itself.

Today’s song is from the comedy film ” Mr. Cartoon, M.A.-” 1958.

What a coincidence ! Last Sunday, I had selected a song from this film to be discussed today (usually I line up 3-4 songs for writing posts). However, the same song was discussed by our Sadanand Kamath ji, on Monday, 3rd March. Instead of going for another film song, I selected the only remaining song from this film for today’s post. Being the last song of the film, it will make the film YIPPEED today !

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Chetak Aur Rana Pratap’. This movie was passed by the Censor Board on 07.08.1958. This movie is making its debut on the blog today, and I am surprised that so far it was missing here. Perhaps unavailability of the songs of this movie was the reason. Now a couple of songs of this movie have become available since 2019. The title of the movie suggests that it falls under the genre of ‘historical movies’.

The cast included Sivaji Ganesan, Padmni, M R Radha, Ragini, Kannamba, M N Nambiar, K V Thangavelu, Helen, Reeta and Chandra etc. The Tamil film itself was a remake of another Tamil film of the same name released in 1940. This film was loosely based on the third part, ‘The Man in the Iron Mask’ (1847) of Alexander Dumas’s novel ‘The Vicomte of Bragelonne: Ten Years Later’. The Tamil version of the film was a box office hit which put Sivaji Ganesan in Super Star league among the Tamil film actors.
