Today’s song is a rare Bhajan from the film Jai Hanuman-1948.

A few days back, I got a message from our friend Gajendra Khanna ji, along with this song. He suggested that I write a post on it. This song was given to him long ago by Suman Chaurasia ji who had got it from Girdharilal Vishwakarma ji. When I heard this song, I was very much impressed with its tune, music and melody. Since the song was in MP3 format, I requested Sadanand Kamath ji to upload this song, so that I could use it for my post. However, Sadanand ji found that this song was already posted recently by the Saregama company. He sent me its link.

Saga Of Sleepless Nights – 10
– – – – – – – – – – – – – – – – –

raat bhar muaa sone naa de. . .

This snippet line is from a song that has not made it on the blog as yet. The film is ‘Vidhaata’ from 1982. This snippet line is from the naughty song “Saat Saheliaan Khadi Khadi, Fariyaad Sunaayen Ghadi Ghadi” (YT link). The song is kind of an item song that is performed on screen by a bearded and plump Shammi Kapoor lip syncing the voice of Kishore Kumar, with a harmonium in front of him, as he leads a local get together into a sort of celebration song. I am sure most readers will be familiar with this song. The lyrics are kind of raunchy, penned by Anand Bakshi. The song tells of the plight of seven friends whose husbands are in different professions. Each ‘saheli‘ tells of her woes as to how her husband does not let her sleep all night.

Rewind back 33 years earlier, to 1949. Another song that tells a similar story – the lady has the same complain, that her companion did not let her sleep all night. That the entire night was spent tossing and turning, and the night passed in this uljhan only.

An obscure film ‘Ranee’ (1943), which was a bi-lingual film made by Calcutta’s Barua Productions.

The film was produced and directed by PC Barua for Barua Productions, Calcutta. The music was by Kamal Dasgupta. Barring a few big movies, the Hindi-Bangla bilingual films did not become as successful as their Bangla versions. I feel the reasons were mainly two. One was that the cast of such films consisted of most names, with which the Hindi audience was not familiar. The second point was the style of acting and the dialogue delivery of the Bangla actors was deemed strange in Hindi belt. The Hindi used in films made in Bengal was too pure to be of the liking of people who were used to Hindustani language. The audience preferred ‘pyar‘ or ‘muhabbat‘ to ‘prem‘, for example.

Tu Chhupi Hai Kahaan
Main Tadapta Yahaan. . .

The anguished voice of Diwakar, the poet, that begins as a whisper from a famished throat, rises up to the heavens, as the poet is so painfully trying to search for his creativity – his muse, his love of life, a fantasy woman whom he has woven into his writings.

Mohini, whom he meets often at many a turn of the passages of life, is the romance that is rooted in his imagination, the power of creativity that propels his pen to create music and songs which are not understood, not accepted by his family and dear ones.
