Today’s song is from a very old film of the first decade of the Talkie films – Village Girl aka Gram Kanya-1936.
There were 3 films with the same title. The first one was made as a Silent film, with Sulochana in the lead opposite Raja Sandow. The film was made by Imperial Film Company, Bombay and it was directed by Mohan Bhavnani. He later married actress Enakshi Rama Rau in 1931. The second film was in 1936, today’s film and the third was made in 1945 with singer and actress Nurjahan. It had excellent songs composed by Music Director Shyam Sunder. It was for this film that Mohd. Rafi recorded his first Hindi song in 1944. He sang in the Chorus and the lead singer was G.M.Durrani. However, when the times changed, Rafi was the lead singer and Durrani in the Chorus for a song in K.Asif’s film Laila Majnu !

Today’s song is from the film Karma-1933. It is a special song for two reasons. One- it was the First Talkie film made in both Hindi and English and two- this was the first Hindi film to have an English song in it. Later on, ofcourse, many more English songs have appeared in Hindi films.

Today’s song is a duet from the film Punarmilan-1940.
My favourite Marathi/Hindi/English author ISAQ MUJAWAR has written several – over 30 – books on Hindi and Marathi old films, people and related topics. One of his books in English is ” Maharashtra – The Birthplace of the Indian Film Industry”. This is a very rare book to find one. I have the original as well as its xerox copy. The original book was gifted to me by my Friend from Ahmedabad, Mr. P.S.Seshadri. He is an occasional visitor and commenter of this Blog.

Today’s song is from the film ‘Beti’ (1941).
This film was made by Ranjit Movietone and it was directed by Jayant Desai. The music was by Gyan Dutt. The film cast consisted of Khursheed, Vasanti, Arun Ahuja, E Bilimorea, Ghori, Kesari, Khatoon, Nagendra, Rewa Shankar etc. 1941 was the beginning of the second decade of the talkie films. Many actors, singers, MDs and directors who rolled over to talkie films from the silent era, slowly started retiring and the new generation took over slowly. Actors like Nagendra, Rewa Shankar, Ghori, Kesari, Khatoon, and Bilimorea who were in this film ended their careers in the next few years.

Today’s song is from the film Badi Maa-1945.
The second world war had affected the British Raj very badly. There was Rationing of essential commodities and food items such as Rice and Sugar as well as other necessities like petrol, Kerosene etc. The film industry was hit greatly because the main ingredient of films- The Raw film- was put under Rationing. Small filmmakers were hit badly and the big ones got a limited quota based on their average production of the last 5 years. Like other items of rationing, even Raw film was available in Black market at an exorbitant price.

Today’s song is from the film Shri Ram Avtar-1950.
Hindu religion has a very large literature. Unlike Islamic or Christian religions, Hindus do not have One Common Sacred ” GOD-BOOK”. That is because all the knowledge of Hindu religion can not be summed up in one book, however big it would be. Further Hindu religion is not rigid and gives freedom of worship to its followers as it suits them.
