ALBELAA (1951) was a musical blockbuster produced and directed by Master Bhagwan. In my childhood days, I had quite often heard ‘shaam dhale khidki tale tum seeti bajaanaa chhod do’ but none of the other songs from the film. I saw this film for the first time on Doordarshan in early 80s. Thereafter, I must have seen this movie a couple of times after I bought VCD of this film last year. This was Bhagwan’s first venture for a big budget film after producing and directing some low budget C grade films. The film was the third highest box office grosser of 1951 ranking after ‘Aawaraa’ and ‘Baazi’. It was an amazing feat for Bhagwan to achieve a box office success with this film despite having a run of the mill story ( probably based on his own life), a lacklustre direction and a non-conventional lead actor like him. The credit goes to the film’s foot tapping songs which became a craze those days and are still popular with the new generation as well.

I have commented in the past that Hindi movie songs are mostly based on topics that are of interest to Indians. But often there are day to day activities that have sadly gone underrepresented in Hindi movie songs.

“Albela”(1951) was the biggest hit of Bhagwan’s career. It was the first time he made an A grade movie and reaped rich dividends. It is another matter that he could not capitalise on this success and soon he was back to making B grade movies again, in addition to acting as a comedian.

Shola jo bhadke dil mera dhadke

“Albela” was a definitive movie in Bollywood history. Bhagwan, then a C grade movie producer, took a big risk in producing this movie which was a big step forward for him. He took a big financial risk in producing this movie, and his gamble paid off. It is another matter that he failed to replicate the success of this movie in his subsequent movies, and he went back to where he was, before this movie happened.
