Today’s song is from an almost 90 year old film Sunehra Sansar-1936.

The film was made by the East India Film Co.,Calcutta. It was directed by a veteran Debki Bose. The music was by K.C.Dey ( 1893-1962)- the only blind music composer of those times. Later, of course, two more such Music directors came up. One was Manoharlal Sonik (1923-1993) and the other one was Ravindra Jain (1944-2015). Te lyricist of all the 21 songs of the film was also the film’s Hero, Vijay Kumar Pandit, B.A. The other cast members were Rampyari, Menaka Devi (Debut film in Calcutta), Gul Hamid, Kamla Jharia, Azurie, Mazhar Khan, K.N.Singh (Debut film) and few others.

TV serial Song number 5:

Our Blog has achieved a substantial milestone of completing 20000 posts with Sudhir ji’s post on a rare song, gham kaa banoge nishaana. When I had joined the bandwagon sometime in July 2011, the Blog had just completed 4000 songs in about 3 years. At that time, I had never imagined that the Blog would attain even a milestone of 10000 articles because it would have been a long haul during which the interest of the owner of the Blog (Atul ji) and the guest writers may wane because they may have to prioritise other important commitments. In the event, I have been proved wrong. Over the period of time, not only Atul ji has been keeping his interest in the Blog intact, but more guest writers have also joined the bandwagon making Atul ji’s posts appearing more as a ‘guest’ post while some of the guest writers have turned regular contributors on a voluntary basis. Furthermore, there is a phenomenal increase to the visitors of the Blog which is currently in the threshold of crossing 18 million in 18 years, that is, an average of one million a year.

Today’s song is from a Historical film – Andolan-1951.

The film was produced by Harnam Motwane, for his own banner Motwane Ltd. Bombay. It was directed by Phani Mujumdar and the music was by Pannalal Ghosh.

The film had in its cast Kishore Kumar, Shivraj, Krishnakant, Sachinn Shankar- Dancer, Parshuram, Tiwari, manju, Pushpa and many others. There were 3 lyricists and 8 singers for only 5 songs of the film.

film Andolan-1951 was a less known serious film. It is likely that most people have not even heard its name. I have not seen this film. But this is what its film booklet says-“In the year 1885, Charu Dutt, a worldly-wise patriot, journeys from his little village to attend the first session of the Indian National Congress, held in Bombay. A fire with patriotic zeal, he returns to his village and speaks to his friends and relatives of the new wave that is about to spread over India. To his son he explains the cultural and political past of India, from the dawn of her history upto the turbulence of 1857. . The years roll on, and we come to the partition of Bengal. There is thunder in the air, and India’s inspiring song, “Bande Mataram”, is born. . The struggle gathers strength. Mahatma Gandhi appears, and freedom comes closer…..1920….1921….. Simon Commission, Bardoli, Dandi, 1930….1932….the battle rages and the drams heightens, and thus, August 1942, Quit India, and on to the final chapter in our freedom story, which unfolds in this film as the story of a single family, representing the nation of which they are the heart-beats. ”
