“Vakil Sahab” (1943) was directed by Mohan Sinha for Pradeep Pictures, Bombay. This movie, described as a comedy movie in its advertisements of those days, had Trilok Kapoor and Madhuri in lead roles, supported by Miss Shahzaadi, Rajkumari Shukla, Gulam Rasool, Badri Prasad, Khan Mastana,Munshi Khanjar, Malti Pande, Mumtaz Begam etc.
The movie had seven songs in it that were composed by two music directors, viz. Anna Sahab Moinkar and P Madhukar. But the distribution of songs among them is not known. The lyricists of these songs are not known either.
Here is the first song from “Vakil Sahab” (1943) to appear in the blog. This song is sung by Khan Mastana. The lyricist and music director are not known as mentioned earlier.
Seeing that Khan Mastana figures in the cast, it would seem that this song was picturised on himself.
I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on this movie.
With this rare song, “Vakil Sahab” (1943) makes its debut in the blog.

aankh khol kar dekh le jhoothhe ae ae

jhhoothh bol kya paayegaa
jhhoothh bol kya paayegaa
bach ke kidhar tu jaayegaa
tu kab tak jhhoothh chhupaayegaa
bach ke kidhar tu jaayegaa
tu kab tak jhhoothh chhupaayegaa

‘Ladies Only’ (1939) was produced under the banner of Sagar Movietone and it was directed by Sarvottam Badami. The star cast included Surendra, Bibbo, Sabita Devi, Prabha, Harish, Budho Advani, Sunalini Devi, Kaushalya etc. The film was released on 16th February 1939 and Moraraji Desai, the Revenue Minister of the then Bombay State was the chief guest.
The film was a satirical comedy with an unusual end. In this film, Surendra was not a conventional hero in the sense that he did not get any of three main actresses at the end. I have made a synopsis of the story of the film based on the review published in April 1939 issue of ‘Filmindia’ which is given below:
Three girls from three different states, Bengal, Gujarat and Punjab viz Chhaaya (Prabha, Bengali), Sarojini (Sabita Devi, Gujarati) and Asha (Bibbo, Punjabi), meet at a railway station in Bombay (Mumbai). They decide to stay together for their boarding and lodging for which they rent a flat. Satish (Surendra) also meets these girls who come to know that he is passionate about music and stays opposite their rented flat.
The girls staying together for sometime now know each other’s nature. Asha, the Punjabi girl is crude, greedy, music lover, lazy, comfort seeker etc. Chhaaya, the Bengali girl is miser, coy, primitive, and childish. Sarojini, the Gujarati girl, is educated, resourceful and has a great organisational capacity but these are all at the expenses of other two girls. They also display one-upmanship about their respective states.
All the three girls not only live together, they also aim at the same man, Satish who spend much of his time with these girls either on outings or in their rented flat. One day, girls decide to visit his house across the street without notice and find a stout woman welcoming the girls. The stout woman turns out to be Satish’s wife. It is shocking for the girls. The girls walk out of the house muttering something derogatory about the men folk in general.
For Sagar Movietone, ‘Ladies Only’ (1939) gave them a good start for the year 1939 with a box office hit. This was followed by another box office success viz ‘Ek Hi Raasta’ (1939). The banner had also planned for their ambitious films like ‘Alibaba’ (1940) in Hindi and Punjabi and ‘Kumkum the Dancer’ (1940) in Hindi and Bengali. But before these films could be released, Sagar Movietone found themselves in a dire financial crunch. By the end of 1939, the banner was amalgamated with General Films to form National Studios.
‘Ladies Only’ (1939) had 11 songs written by Pandit Indra and Zia Sarhadi but the name of the specific lyricist for each song is not available. All the songs were set to music by Anupam Ghatak.
Here is the first song ‘chamke poonam ko poonam ko chaand’ from the film to appear in the Blog. The song is sung by Surendra and Bibbo. It can be observed that the structure of lyrics are not in usual form and the song is composed for Surendra and Bibbo on different notes and tempos. The song is probably picturised on them separately.
With this song, ‘Ladies Only’ (1939) makes its debut in the Blog.
