Today’s song is from the film Badi Baat-1944.

During the second world war period 1939-1945, a lot of Black marketing flourished and few anti-socials became rich having a lot of unaccounted money. As such, during the war period the British Government had imposed Rationing of various essential items including food items, sugar,oil, Kerosene, Petrol and even Raw Film supply.

Now, they did not know what to do with this unaccounted money.

Today’s song is from the film Ismat-1944.

This was a Muslim social film made by Fazli Brothers Ltd., Bombay. Films made on Muslim backgrounds were started from the very first Talkie film-Alam Ara-1931. In fact, the early filmmakers were making films mostly on Muslim background – be it a Historical, Religious or a Social film, folklore and films based on the Urdu and Parsee drama company stories. In 1931 itself, there were as many as 7 such films like Abu Hasan, Shirin Farhad, Laila Majnu, Noorjahan etc.

In this article, I am taking up a rare song from ‘Sharaarat’ (1944) which I had uploaded on one of the video sharing platforms about 6 years back for covering on the Blog. However, it got delayed because I was not sure of the playback singer of the song. In the milieu, I completely forgot to follow it up. A few days back, I heard this song on the website which reminded me of a long pending post which I am taking up.

The film was made by Rajkamal Chitra, as a bilingual film. In Marathi it was titled ‘Bhakticha Mala’ (‘भक्तीचा मळा’) and in Hindi it was ‘Mali’ (‘माली’). It was directed by V Shantaram.

During 1930s and 1940s, when India was a desperately poor country, literacy level was very low. Even males were largely unlettered. The less said about the literacy of women, the better. So under those circumstances, an educated woman, who was also a workng woman, was a source of great curiousity among common folk. One can imagine how it must be like in 1940s. Basic literacy is one thing. To become educated in the medical field was obviously way tougher.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No. 40
————————————————————————————–

On this date ten years back viz on 12 March 2013, eight songs from eight different movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

Blog post number Song Movie (Year) Remarks
7658 Kyun tumne hamko daraaya Prem Sangeet (1943) 4 songs covered out of 10 by now
7659 Raat ki malka ban thhan ke Ismat(1944) 3 songs covered out of 7 by now
7660 Preet ki jyot jalaakar chup hai Vishkanya(1943) 7 songs covered out of 12 by now
7661 Chaand mera baadalon mein kho gaya Pathan (1962) 4 songs covered out of 7 by now
7662 Raja haweli ki khidki zara kholna re Veer Rajputaani(1955) 5 songs covered out of 9 by now
7663 Assalaam aalekum baabu Kalpana(1960) 6 songs covered out of 10 by now
7664 Aayegaa kaun yahaan Gumnaam (1965) Movie YIPPEED by now
7665 Meri patni mujhe sataati hai Pati Patni(1966) movie YIPPEED by now

It can be noticed that two movies (out of eight movies) whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (on 12 March 2013) have since been YIPPEED on the blog. That leaves us with six movies that are still unYIPPEED and therefore eligible for Blog Ten Year Challenge today (12 March 2023).

Today’s song is from a stunt film – Bahadur-1944. This was one of those ordinary films made by Jagriti Pictures, Bombay, owned by Master Bhagwan. The film was also directed by Bhagwan and the film’s music was provided by his friend C.Ramchandra with an alias Ram Chitalkar. The Lyricist was Ehsan Rizvi and the cast of the films was Baburao Pehelwan, Bhagwan, Shanta Patel, Samson, Bhagwandas, yeshwant, Bibi, Surekha and Nirasha (what a name ! Her parents must have expected a Boy baby and she was born, hence she must have been named as Nirasha. My intelligent guess !).
