Today’s song is from an Unique film – Sardar-1955.

The film is unique not because its story was different or due to its cast. It had not won any award also and it was not an extraordinarily successful film. Then what made it a unique film ?

Today’s song is from the film Patit Pawan-1955.

Most of our readers are aware of “Same name confusion”. It is a phenomenon in which 2 or more artistes having similar names operated in Hindi films, during the same period, causing severe damage to the less known artiste when his films were credited-unjustly- to the filmography of the well known artiste of the similar name. In an industry where from 1931 to 2000 period itself more than 7000 artistes acted in the Hindi films, it was bound to occur and it did take place. I have done research on this matter and have clarified the different artistes, numbering to over 100, who were involved in such a confusion. These are included in my first 2 books also.

Today’s song is from the movie ‘Shree Ganesh Vivaah-1955’. From the title of this movie readers can easily guess that the song in this presentation would be a ‘Lord Ganesha related song’. Yes! In this post I am presenting a ‘beautiful Ganesh vandan bhajan’ from this movie ‘Shree Ganesh Vivaah-1955’.

Today’s song is from the film Shiv Bhakta-1955.

This film was made by A.V.M, Madras in their Madras Studio. This is actually the story of Bhakta Kannappa, on whom AVM had made the original Bilingual film in Telugu and Kannada in 1954. This Hindi remake was made in 1955. According to folklore, Lord Shiv ji also blessed Kannappa to be reborn in Kaliyuga as one of his greatest devotees, as Kannappa and to be liberated from birth and rebirth.

Today’s song is from a social film Albeli-1955.

This is a very rare song and I spent more than a month searching for this song, but could not get it. Finally, on my request I got the audio MP3 format of this song from my friend Syed Zafar Shah ji. He has always been very helpful to me. I have few other well known song collectors like Girdharilal Vishwakarma ji, Vishwas Nerurkar ji and Deepak Choudhari ji, who extend their help whenever I request them. I consider it my good luck to know them so well.

The remembrance day today (9 May 1998) offers us another opportunity to pay our tributes to Talat Mehmood (24 Feb 1924-9 May 1998).

Today’s song is from the film Kundan-1955.

The film was made by Minerva Movietone, produced and directed by Sohrab Modi. I liked Sohrab Modi very much. Not only because he could deliver long dialogues forcefully, but because his life story was very inspiring. In India there were few other filmmakers and directors who handled topics normally considered Taboo by others and some filmmakers who never hesitated to make films on unusual themes, when the trend was to make entertaining, musical and romantic films. Sohrab Modi was perhaps the only filmmaker who made films to expose the social ills through the cinematic medium from his first film.

Today’s song is from the costume/stunt film Raj Darbar-1955. It was a partially coloured film. The film was directed by Balwant Bhatt and the music was by the king of melody-Chitragupt. Surprisingly, there was a duet song by Kishore kumar in this film. Normally he was not seen singing in this type of film. The cast of the film was Ranjan, Nirupa Roy, Ishwar Lal, B.M.Vyas, Asha Mathur, Ranjit Kumari, Azeem and others.

A very Happy MAHASHIVRATRI to all our readers.

On this auspicious occasion, I am presenting a Shiv bhajan from the film Swami Vivekanand-1955.

There were two Hindi movies made on Swami ji. One was made and released in 1955 and the other was made in 1994 (released in 1998). There was also the movie The Light : Swami Vivekanand in 2013. It was made in Hindi, Bangla, Tamil and English. There were movies in Telugu and of course in Bangla also. Today’s film was made by Amar Mullick Production. It was produced by actress Bharati Devi (Amar Mullick’s wife) and Phani Mullick (Amar’s brother). The film was directed by Amar Mullick himself. The film was made simultaneously in Bangla and Hindi. All artistes were from Bengal. The Music Director was Rai Chand Boral.

Today’s song is from the ‘ imaginary ‘ film, which was a Costume C grade film – Son of Alibaba-1955.

So, here we are again talking about a Costume C grade film which has an ‘imaginary’ category in the HFGK. I selected this film song because among such other films, this film had much better and good songs, composed by Sardul Kwatra, the Music Director.
