Today’s song is from the film ‘Naqabposh’ (1956).

I am from that generation, which lived in a joint family. There used to be anything from 10 to 20 adult members in the household and everyone was assigned certain duties. As far as children were concerned, doing small jobs, following orders from elders, studying regularly and sleeping early was expected from them.One of the interesting points in our daily life used to be to listen to stories told by the old generation members like the grandfather and grandmother, before we went to sleep.

Today’s song is from the film Aan Baan-1956.

1956 was the year of the Silver Jubilee of the Talkie films. The ” Golden Era” of Hindi film music was on its peak and many memorable films were made in 1956. The Bangla version of Hindi film Jagte Raho had won the Grand Prix award at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival. Other notable films were Nai Dilli (one of my favourite films),Ek hi raasta, Bhai Bhai from AVM, Chori-Chori- also from south, C.I.D., Hum sab chor hain ( another from my favourite’s list), Basant Bahar, Toofan aur Diya, Funtoosh, Hateemtai, Taksaal, Bandhan, Jaldeep, Rajhath and Inspector. The sensational court case of film Naya Daur-57 came up in court this year, in which Dilip Kumar openly expressed his love for Madhubala, in the court.

Today’s song is the last and final song of the film Hatimtai-1956.

I have a very funny memory about this film’s name, Hatim Tai. During my school days, when I first got the book “Stories of Hatim Tai”, from my school Library for reading, I thought these were the stories of the elder sister of someone called Hatim. I thought so because in marathi, ” TAI” means ‘Didi’ or elder sister. However, once i started readingthe book, I realised that I was wrong and Hatimtai was the name of the Hero of the stories. For many years thereafter, I kept on wondering about this misleading name. Finally, in another book I got the answer to my curiosity.

Today’s song is a duet from the film Sajni-1956. This song is of some significance. It is a song sung by a pair of Husband-wife. Of course this is not unique. Earlier also there were a few such songs by Husband-wife pairs. What is significant is that this was their last duet in a film. The pair was Sudhir Phadke and Lalita Deulkar Phadke. What’s more, with this song Lalita ended her film singing career also !
