Today’s song is a Qawwali from the film Hurricane Hansa-1937.
The Indian film industry was still in its childhood in 1937. It had been just 6 years since the first Talkie film was made in India. The initial years were of experimentation. The filmmakers were trying various topics in their films.
Indian audiences may be from different states and languages, but Mythological and Stunt films were common favourites all over India. From the first decade when the first silent movies were made till the 1960s, these two genres continued unabated.
Most of us like to see films, be it on a TV, in a cinema hall, or through DVD. Some like old films, some like new films. Did you ever see films like, Khooni Khanjar, Dagabaj Doctor, Shaitan ka paash, Char chakram, Daku Rani Talwarwali, Jaadu ka dandaa, Zinda Laash, Revolver Rani, Sinbad-Aladdin-Alibaba, Flying man, Fighter Sheela, Khooni Darinda, Tarzan aur Jadugar, Tarzan aur Jadui Chiraag, Golden Gang, Murde ki jaan khatare mein, or Jadui putli ?

1-10-2012.
This is the date which I shall never ever forget in my life. There are dates for several milestones in one’s life, like date of Birth, Date of graduation, Date of Marriage, Date of retirement etc etc. barring a few, one forgets all other dates, because those dates have no relevance to his current or future life.
Certain dates one can never forget, because those are the dates when one’s life had taken a turn – like a Marriage date or a Retirement date etc. 1-10-2012 is neither my date of Birth nor my marriage nor retirement date. So, what is there that makes it so unforgettable ?

Today’s song is from an 88 year old film- Premveer-1937. It was made by Huns Pictures, Kolhapur by the owner, producer and the director of this film – Master Vinayak.
It was just 6 years ago that India had entered the Talkie film era, with Alam Ara-1931. Initially films were based on Mythology, folk stories and historical figures. Soon the talented filmmakers like V.Shantaram, Master Vinayak, Baburao Painter, Sohrab Modi, Himanshu Rai, B.C.Sircar, S.S.Vasan and others realised that the Talkie films have to be handled differently that the Silent films. Being a novelty, the moving pictures or the Silent films were in a sellers’ market – which meant that whatever was produced was sold. But now that the films had started talking, story content, music, acting, direction and the themes needed to be accepted by the audience. This meant that new filmmakers were in Buyers’ market and they needed to make what had a demand from the audience.

Today’s song is from India’s Milestone movie – Kisan Kanya-1937.
The year 1937 was a year of Revolution for the newly started Talkie Films. Initially the films were mainly based on Folk tales, Parsi dramas and Mythological stories. 1937 was a year in which the Film industry was trying to drop its old skin and don a New Avtar. From this year, a variety of subjects were used to make films. If we briefly look at some path breaking, landmark films using Novel themes, we will understand how the film industry was attempting to change itself.

Today’s song is from the film Dharmveer-1937.
This film was released 6 years after the Talkie film started. Just before the advent of Talkie films, Parsi theatre and other drama companies were the only Entertainment sources.
