This is another beautiful ghazal from the film Chhoti Chhoti Baaten (1965), presented as a duet in this movie. The ghazal is sung by Mukesh and Lata Mangeshkar, and on screen, it is picturized on Moti Sagar and Manju. Moti Sagar plays the role of Motilal’s son in this movie. Motilal leaves his children and comes to live in a village. After some time, one of his sons, Moti Sagar, disillusioned with his own life in his own ways, also follows him and starts to live with his father in the village. Here, he falls in love with a village girls, Radha, played by actress Manju.

“Bikhhre Moti” (1951) is a movie I have little idea about. But I have gathered that this movie had actors like Jeevan, Neelam, Kamini Kaushal, Nigar, Jayant, Ranjana, Sherry etc in it. From the movie title, the movie appears to be a tear jerker movie.

As with many movies of that era, I saw Dr. Kotnis Ki Amar Kahaani (1946) on Doordarshan as a child. Sometimes, I am thankful for the times and the circumstances I grew up in. As teenagers, we did never have enough pocket money to spend on visits to the cinema halls. Our cinematic excursions were limited to view the weekly movie on DD, that too at a friend’s home. There was a time, many others would also remember, the weekly movie was actually shown partly on Saturday and partly on Sunday. I can recall a long list of movies from the 30s to the 50s thus viewed. This was before the time cable took over, and a black and white showing on the TV screen became a rarity. And the movies watched then, had a lasting impression and influence on my mind. The life and times were simpler; the movies and its people meant a value in social and traditional terms, and money was not the name of the game.

Tumhi rehnumaa ho meri zindagi ke

Early 1970s had seen some non mainstream movies made on “bold” subjects. The movie watchers, as well as the movie critics were not mature enough to appreciate these movies. These movies were badly panned by the critics and such movies flopped. “Dastak”, “Chetna” and ‘Do Raahaa” were a few such movies.
