Today’s song is from the social film Stage – 1951.
The year 1951 gave us a trailer of what was in store in the decade of 1951 to 1960 and why this period was called ” The Golden Era” of Hindi Film Music. In the first year of the decade , there were many musicals like Awara, Albela, Baazi, Deedar, Bahar, Naujawan, Jaadu, Naheena, Daaman, Dholak, Madhosh, Malhar, Naadaan, Sagai, Sanam, shabistan and many more. This period was a fruitful mixture of old artists and the new era artists. Most actors, M.D.s and Directors who came from the Silent era and the 30’s and the 40’s, ended their career in the 50’s. Some M.D.s, not getting any film as a composer, chose to work as a musician in some emerging M.D’s orchestra, to sustain life. Actors retired and the new blood energized the film industry.

Today’s song is from a Mythological film ‘Subhadra’-1946.
The genre of Mythological films was one of the most favourite one of the filmmakers from the day filmmaking started in India. If you remember, even the first ever silent film made by Dadasaheb Phalke- Raja harishchandra-1913 – was based on King Harishchandra’s story from the Vishnu Puran. This was because the Indian culture was such that irrespective of the caste and creed, everyone liked to see these stories which they heard from several generations. In those years, the Hindu population of India was 85 % ( as per 1921 Census). Steadily, these types of films became less and less and by 1990 onwards, as far as I know, there were no Mythological films worth mentioning.
