Hullo Atuldom
1st August is the date when Meena Kumari was born as Mahjabeen Bano.
She had a career spanning 33 years, starting as a child artist in 1939. At a young age of 5 she became the bread-winner of her family. Fans of Meena Kumari know that she went on to adult roles from 1946 when she appeared in ‘Bachchon Ka Khel’ & ‘Duniya Ek Sarai’. ‘Baiju Bawra’ & ‘Parineeta’ helped her gain prominence as an actress. Till the late 1950s she had acted in films ranging from drama to comedy to fantasy before “Chiraag Kahaan Roshni Kahan”; “Main Chup Rahungi” & such other movies earned her ‘tragedy-queen’ sobriquet. Personally I liked her ‘chulbuli’ characters in “Miss Mary”, “Kohinoor”, “Azaad” etc.

Today’s special post marks the 18400th song to be posted on the blog. It is being posted on 20th July 2024 which marks 52 years since the honey voiced Geeta Dutt left for her heavenly abode, too early at the age of just 41 years old leaving behind three children and a legacy that can never be forgotten by music lovers.
This post also marks her 1001st song to be posted on the group. We normally combine artists century songs with the blog’s century songs but we had erred in counting Geeta Dutt songs in the blog and She was already on 1000 songs. So this song is 1001st song of hers (sort of like a shagun) to mark the 18400th song on the blog.
Geeta Dutt is the fifth playback singer and 10th artist to complete 1000 songs in the blog. Lata, Rafi, Asha Bhonsle, Kishore Kumar are the other playback singers with 1000 plus songs in the blog. Two music directors duos (Shankar Jaikishan, Laxmikant Pyarelal) and three lyricists (Rajinder Krishan, Majrooh Sultanpuri, Anand Bakshi) are the other artists with 1000 plus songs in the blog.

Today’s song is from the film Ek Roz-1947.
How many readers will know that a record number of films were made in 1947 in Hindi till then ? 181 Films ! It took another almost 40 years to cross this number. In the year 1985, the number of films made was 185.
Why was it that in 1947 alone such a high number of Hindi films were made ? The answer is – Partition of India in 1947 and the subsequent migration of Muslim film artistes to the newly created nation on the basis of Religion – Pakistan. Partition of India was the biggest blow to India, which had remained One Nation for thousands of years, despite having many religions thriving in it. Anyway, that is not the topic here.

Today’s song is from the film Romeo and Juliet-1947, which the HFGK mentioned as ” शास्त्रीय संगीत प्रधान ” (Classical music based) film. However, hearing songs from this film, I wondered why this film was labelled so. After hearing today’s song, you may also wonder likewise, I am sure.

After the introduction of playback singing system in Hindi films around 1935, many accredited singers from All India Radio (AIR), especially from Bombay (Mumbai), Lahore, Calcutta (Kolkata), Delhi, Lucknow/Kanpur etc got opportunities as playback singers in Hindi films. Apart from the popularity they got from the songs they sang for the films, the remuneration they received from playback singing was much higher than the fees they got from AIR.
