Today’s song is from the Mythological film Navratri-1955.
Made by Bhagyodaya Pictures, Bombay, it was directed by Raman B. Desai. It was produced by R.U.Patel and Natwar Shyam. The music was by the king of Melody – Chitragupt, ably assisted by Dilip Dholakia. The cast of the film was Nirupa Roy, Manahar desai, Sapru, S.N.Tripathi, Lalita Pawar, Kumkum etc. Songs were by G.S.Nepali (6) and Bharat Vyas (2).
Two major actors, who featured in many religious films in Hindi were Manhar Desai and Shahu Modak. You may be surprised to know that both were Christians. Actors who were not Hindus and doing Hindu Gods’ roles in Hindi films, is not new. I remember, there was an actor, Syed Hasan Ali Zaidi aka Mijjan Miyan, with New Theatres, Calcutta. He did the role of Bhakta Pooran in a film with this title in 1933. Just before the release of the film, there were communal riots in Calcutta.

Today’s song is from the film Naulaakha Haar-1953.
Making films on folklore – well known or less known – is easy, because a lot of liberties can be taken while making the film. There is no copyright or any authentic version of any folklore. The same story may circulate in different regions/states in a different garb. Film Naulaakha Haar-1953 was also based on the love story of Alha- Udal.

#The Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #
———————————————————–—
(Lyricist Kavi Pradeep-27)

#Desh Kee Mittee Kee Khushboo#
My recent posts on this blog have been mostly presentations of devotional songs. One reason is that the holy month of saawan has commenced. Devotees of Lord Shiva or Bholey Baabaa are untertaking ‘kaanwar yaatraa’ to bring the holy gangajal from the Ganga river from places such as ‘Gaumukh’, ‘Haridwar’,Gangotri, Sultanganj (Bihar). Devotees get ‘gangaajal’ from these places and then carry the water pots on a contraption called kaanvar. Devotees then offer this water at their local shrines. Some devotees carry this water to various ‘jyotirlingaas’ of Lord Shiva or specific temples of Lord Shiva and offer it there. This is an annual pilgrimage undertaken by millions specifically in the northern parts of the country (including eastern and central India and parts of Western India). The devotees travel to the temples of Shiva while chanting ‘bol bam’ throughout the journey.

Mukesh and his Actors – 07
As we draw towards the last few HF songs of Mukesh, it is becoming increasingly difficult to trace his unposted songs on the blog.
Of late, I pick up an artist (actor, co-singer, composer) and start the rigorous search on the blog to see if all the respective songs are covered. In this exercise, I am also realizing that I have myself covered the artist in one of my series in the past. 😊
Of course, I am yet to cover Raj Kapoor, Lata, Asha, and three duo-composers for whom Mukesh sang songs aplenty. The issue with such artists is that I must spend considerable time preparing the lengthy tables. However, they are quite important, and I will try to take up these marathon posts shortly. I am even contemplating breaking the songs decade-wise so that it is easy for me to cover them. Let me see what best can be done.
