Shamshad Begam (14 april 1919- 23 april 2013) is no more. She was the seniormost among all the survivors from the earliest days of Hindi movie music. She in fact was senior to all the legends of the golden era of Hindi movie music. She was more or less a contemporary of the likes of K L Saigal, Khursheed, Amirbai Karnataki etc.

“Magadh Raj” (1946) must be one of the most obscure Hindi movies of all time. Hardly any information is available about this movie. Songs from this movie are not available on YT either. One can come across songs like this only in one’s own offline collection if any and there too one needs to search specifically for these songs.

I was a bit surprised to note that Mohammed Rafi had to struggle for nearly 5 years to establish him as one of the leading male playback singers in Hindi film industry. It is said that he recorded his first song for a Punjabi film as early as 1942. It took him another 2 years to get his first song in a Hindi film ‘Pahele Aap’ (1944), a duet with Shyam thus beginning his long lasting collaboration with Naushad. It took another year for him to get an opportunity to sing his first solo song ‘ae dil-e-nakaam tamanna’ in ‘Hamara Sansaar’ (1945) followed by ‘teraa khilonaa toota baalak’ in ‘Anmol Ghadi’ (1946), the latter one under the baton of Naushad.
