‘Shrimaanji’ (1968) was produced and directed by Ram Dayal under his banner, Mukul Enterprises. The cast included Kishore Kumar, I S Johar, Jeevan, Asha Nadkarni, Meena Rai, Shahida, Asit Sen, Wasti, Murad, Ram Kamlani, Hiralal, Neelam, W M Khan, Veena, Madhumati, Sharifa etc.

With Kishore Kumar and I S Johar in the main roles, apparently, the film belongs to comedy genre. However, the first 30 minutes of the film is melodramatic. It is only when the two protagonists turn to their adulthoods, the story gets switched over to comedy until the last about 30 minutes when the story turns into a murder and court room drama. There is no actress in the lead role in the film.

Mukesh and his Composers – 44

Basant Prakash was the younger brother of famed composer Khemchand Prakash.

While Khemchand Prakash became immortal due to the popularity of songs in Mahal (1949) and among the pioneers of HFM, Basant Prakash is hardly remembered despite composing about a dozen films albeit a few were with other composers.

Whenever Basant Prakash’s name is taken, mention of his short stint with the famous movie Anarkali (1953) is inevitable. It is said that Filmistan’s S. Mukherji first approached C.

Since Geeta Roy was the preferred singer for the producer, Basant Prakash was approached who started work on the film.
