Today’s song is from a Mythological film ‘Subhadra’-1946.
The genre of Mythological films was one of the most favourite one of the filmmakers from the day filmmaking started in India. If you remember, even the first ever silent film made by Dadasaheb Phalke- Raja harishchandra-1913 – was based on King Harishchandra’s story from the Vishnu Puran. This was because the Indian culture was such that irrespective of the caste and creed, everyone liked to see these stories which they heard from several generations. In those years, the Hindu population of India was 85 % ( as per 1921 Census). Steadily, these types of films became less and less and by 1990 onwards, as far as I know, there were no Mythological films worth mentioning.

Today’s song is from India’s Milestone movie – Kisan Kanya-1937.
The year 1937 was a year of Revolution for the newly started Talkie Films. Initially the films were mainly based on Folk tales, Parsi dramas and Mythological stories. 1937 was a year in which the Film industry was trying to drop its old skin and don a New Avtar. From this year, a variety of subjects were used to make films. If we briefly look at some path breaking, landmark films using Novel themes, we will understand how the film industry was attempting to change itself.

Today’s fun song is from the film ‘Kunwara Baap’ (1942).
The first reaction after reading the title of the film will be Mehmood’s film of 1974 having the same title. But rest assured today’s film was made in 1942 and had a different story. Mehmood’s film was based on an incurable disease – Polio, suffered by a child and it had a touch of pathos, creating sympathy and allied feelings. But ‘Kunwara Baap’ of 1942 was a fun film.

Today’s song is from the film Shamsheer-1953.
Just 6 years after India’s independence, the Hindi film industry was working normally. Young and enthusiastic directors were trying out their hands at a variety of films. The country was stabilised and it looked with wide eyes at the changes in the world. Italian Neorealism was becoming popular among filmmakers all over the world. There was enough material in India which needed films depicting Neo-Realism, so that the social ills could be rectified.

Today’s song is from the film Pataal Bhairavi-1952. This is the film’s last song to feature here, making the film an YIPPEE film.
With all the earlier 8 songs already discussed in detail, almost all the information about the film and its cast is already given by the contributors-including me. This posed a big problem for me as to what I can discuss now that is not yet conveyed in earlier posts. But for every problem there is always a solution and I found it, looking at the cast again. This film was a dubbed film, not a remake and hence all the artistes were from the south. Barring a few main Hero heroines, people outside South are not familiar with other character actors from below the Vindhyas.

Today’s song is from the film Bhabhi-1938.
When the film ‘Bhabhi’ is mentioned, we first remember the 1957 AVM film Bhabhi, which had very good songs like ” Chal ud jaa re panchhi” in 3 parts or “Chali chali re patang meri chali” etc. This was a very successful and a popular film – a truly ‘Family Picture’, in those days. There were 3 movies with the same title ‘Bhabhi’ released in 1938, 1957 and 1991.

Today’s song is from a film which most readers may not be aware of. The film is Hindustan hamara-1950.
But then there are many such films which come and go, without a flutter. so, not surprised that you don’t remember any such film. But have you heard the name of Paul Zils ? No / O.K. Last chance now. Have you ever heard the name of Walter Kauffman ? No ?
