Somewhere in the late 2011 AK ji, of Songsofyore.com, had written on this Blog about the importance of NFS. After reading his views, I too wrote a rather lengthy comment supporting the inclusion of NFS on this Blog. Our contention was that, prior to Hindi Film Music becoming popular all over India, it was those ghazals, Geets and Bhajans, privately sung and recorded by various artists which had ruled the tastes of music lovers. In fact many famous singers had recorded NFS in the beginning phase of their singing careers. Some names are Talat Mehmood, Saigal, Pankaj Mullick, Jagmohan and Juthika Roy !

Today’s song is from the film Ratnadeep-1952. This is the last song of this film, thus making the film YIPPEED !
In the last 7 songs (today’s song is the 8th song) of this film, almost every aspect of the film, songs and the artists working in it have been discussed. Today we will discuss something which is close to my heart, from this film. Today’s song is sung by one of my favourite singers of Hindi Cinema – GEETA DUTT. Some of our readers must be knowing that there is a site called http://www.geetadutt.com, run by some of her ardent admirers. A few years ago, on their request, I had written an article on Geeta Dutt, on her Death Anniversary, for their site.

Today’s song is from the film Ratnadeep-1952.
In the early era of Indian Talkie Cinema, the two major centres of film production were Bombay and Calcutta. They had dual responsibility. One, to make films to entertain the local audience and two, to enter the Hindi cinema market spread throughout the Indian subcontinent. Film makers found a way for this. Films were made in two languages simultaneously-the Local language and the Hindi version.

Today’s song is from the film Usha Kiran-1952.
It had been just about 5 years since we got our Independence. The initial rush of Migration of Muslim artistes to Pakistan had slowed down, but it continued in a trickle till about early 1970s. The second line people who filled up these vacancies in the Hindi film industry were getting established by then.
One big issue came up and that was the backing out of those film financiers from film production, who had a lot of Black money made from the war years. It did have an impact on the number of films made, till new financiers showed up.

Today’s song is from the comedy film Hangama-1952.
1952 was an year which was going through a lean period for Hindi films. Increased costs of Film production, escalating rates of stars and music Directors, establishment of Star System in place of earlier Studio System, increasing taxes, decreasing number of Cinema Halls etc caused a worry in the film industry. Financiers with Black money were making films – in 1952 the number of Hindi films made went up to 105 from 97 of 1951, but dropped again to 98 in 1953. Most films were of lower quality. Because of superior music there were some great films too, but the situation was grave nevertheless.
