Today’s song is a video song of a dance number from the film Alibaba aur 40 chor-1954.
The names Alibaba, Aladdin and Sindbad immediately revive the memories of childhood. Readers in the age group of 65+ will surely drift into Nostalgia. These are some of the popular stories from the ‘Arabian Nights’, one of the Bestsellers of the world. There is hardly any language with a script, which has not translated these stories into their literature. Out of the 1001 stories of the Arabian Nights, the other popular stories were that of Hatimtai and Gul-E-Bakavali.
Several generations grew up reading, enjoying and dreaming about these stories in their school days, all over the world. (I can not vouch for the recent generation, however). Owning these books was a treasure. No wonder filmmakers from all over the world made films on these stories and raked a lot of money. Places like Basra, tatar and Baghdad etc. became known in every country. Grandfathers all over the world made their grandchildren go to sleep while telling them these stories.
India was also not far behind other countries and many films were made on these stories. Not only this, the story departments of studios had such fertile imaginations that they created sons and daughters to all these heroes, which were not in the original stories. Thus, a variety with sureshot masala was added to such films.
It started with silent films. Films on Alibaba were made in 1927 (2), Aladdin- 1927 (20, 1928 and 1930, Sindbad in 1930 (2). After Talkie films started, films were made on Alibaba in 1940, 1946, 1976, Alibaba and 40 thieves in 1932, 1954 (2), 1966, 1977,1980 and 2004. Films on Aladdin in 1933, 1935, 1945, 2009, On Aladdin and magic lamp in 1938, 1952 (2), 1958, 1966,1978, 1982 (20. Films on Aladdin ka Beta in 1939 and 1955, Aladdin and Laila in 1941 and 1957 and Aladdin ki Beti in 1949. On Sindbad in 1946 (20, 1952 (2), 1965 and 2000. As a Bonus Sindbad ki Beti-19658 was also made. The top was, the film Sindbad- Alibaba and Aladdin-1965, sort of ALL IN ONE !
Film Alibaba and 40 Thieves-1954 was made by Basant Pictures and it was directed by its owner Homi Wadia. The music was by the pair of S.N.Tripathi and Chitragupt. In his initial days, Chitragupt had been Tripathi’s assistant for a few years. He has also sung some songs under his baton. This film was first censored on 10-3-1954 as a B & W film. However, its colour version was again censored on 22-11-1956.
A Tamil remake of this film was made in 1956 by Basant pictures with local stars. S. Dakshinmoorthy had done the music orchestration of the Tamil songs which had used all tunes from its Hindi original. The cast of the Hindi film was Shakeela, Mahipal, B.M. Vyas, S.N.Tripathi, Maruti, Sharda Deulkar, Shalini, Ismail, Dalpat, Azeem, Sardar Mansoor and many more. The original story as appeared in “The Arabian Nights’ was adapted by J.B.H.Wadia, by changing its last part of events. His name is given as the Story Writer in the film credits. Finally, the story of the film was like this……..
Alibaba (Mahipal) lives in the city of Dil Pazir. His dancer friend Marjina (Shakila) notices that he pays great attention to his sister Salma (Shalini), after his elder brother Qasim (S.N.Tripathi) has usurped all his ancestral property. His friend Abboo (Maruti) loves Sitara (Sharda Deulkar), Salma’s companion.
When Alibaba goes to the jungle for wood cutting, he accidentally sees the dacoit Abu Hasan (B.M.Vyas) and notes the password to get into his cave of treasure. In the night, Alibaba quietly opens the cave door with the password and collects a lot of wealth and becomes rich. The cunning wife of his brother comes to know and gets him arrested. Margina cleverly gets Alibaba out of jail and they run away with Salma and Abboo.
Qasim goes into the cave, collects wealth but at the time of leaving forgets the password and is stuck inside. Abu Hasan comes and kills Qasim, severing his head from body. Alibaba sees this in his next visit to the cave and brings the dead body parts to his house. Marjina brings a blindfolded tailor who sews the body with the head. This news reached Abu Hasan. To corner and kill Alibaba, he visits his house as a Saudagar along with his 40 thieves hidden in sacks. Marjina recognises him and with the help of Sitara and Abboo, they throw all sacks in a deep valley killing all thieves. Then Marjina tries to kill Abu Hasan, but he tricks her and runs away with her to the hideout. In the climax, Alibaba rescues Marjina, kills Abu Hasan and in the end all is well.
There were -for the first and last time- two Melody makers were the music Directors. Tripathi was an old horse in such types of films. He was a favourite of Wadia Brothers, who made most of these films. Tripathi had a studied knowledge of Arabian style music. Both MDs presented a bouquet of 8 lovely songs in this film. In the starcast, you will find the name Sharda. She was Sharda Deulkar, younger sister of singer lalita Deulkar, who was Sudhir Phadke’s wife. Shakila and Mahipal looked like they were born to act in such films only. Barring a few social films, Shakila was mainly seen in Costume and action films. Having worked with A class actor Dev Anand in film C.I.D.-1956 also did not help her much.
Mahipal or Mahipal Singh or Mahipal Bhandari (24 November 1919 – 15 May 2005) was a film actor who worked in Hindi cinema mostly in stunt films like Parasmani, Zabak, Cobra Girl, Jantar Mantar, Arabian nights themed movies such as Alibaba, Aladdin And The Wonderful Lamp, Roop Lekha, Sunehari Nagin, and Hindu mythological movies like Sampoorna Ramayan, Ganesh Mahima, Veer Bhimsen, Jai Santoshi Maa. He is known for playing the iconic role of Lord Vishnu, and his two avatars, Lord Rama and Lord Krishna in lot of various puranic, Ramayana, Mahabharata, Bhagavata Purana based movies, besides playing Tulsidas and Abhimanyu, and is also best known as the lead in V. Shantaram’s Navrang (1959), and the songs “Tu Chhupi Hai Kahan Me Tadapta Yahan” and “Aadha Hai Chandrama Raat Aadhi”. He acted in several well-known films of the 1950s and 1960s including V. Shantaram’s Navrang (1959) and Babubhai Mistry’s Parasmani (1963).
He was born on 24-11-1919 in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, where after his schooling, he graduated in literature from Jaswant Government College Jodhpur. Thereafter, he worked in the theatre before migrating to Mumbai in the early 1940s.
He made his film debut in the 1942 film Nazrana. However, the film didn’t work, thereafter he wrote lyrics for four films. He went on to work with directors such as Sohrab Modi and later with the Wadia Brothers, Homi Wadia and J. B. H. Wadia, however, it was his work with V. Shantaram that got him lasting acclaim. He worked in several mythological and historical films with actresses such as Nirupa Roy, Mala Sinha and even Meena Kumari.
Mahipal was never counted as an A category actor and so, leading actresses who started their careers with Mahipal in the lead were ashamed of revealing or accepting this fact. For example, In all her interviews, Mala Sinha always quoted “Rangeen Raten”-56 with Shammi Kapoor as her first film in Bombay. She was ashamed of revealing that in the film Riyasat-55, her Hero was Mahipal. She always hid this fact. Similarly, A grade Heroine Meena Kumari also had done several Mythological and costume films before Baiju Bawra took her high up and above other Heroines. Films like Shri Ganesh Mahima-50, Laxmi Narayan-51, Hanuman Paataal vijay-51 and Alladin aur Jadui Chirag-52 had Mahipal as her Hero. In her later years, she always hid her earlier film Heroes.
He also did a series of fantasy films based on Arabian Nights, including Alibaba and 40 Thieves (1954), Jennie (1953) ,Aladdin Aur Jadui Chirag (1952) and Alibaba ka Beta (1955), which gave him popularity even in the Gulf countries. Later in his career, he switched to character roles, and appeared in films such as Jai Santoshi Maa (1975), a 1970s hit.
He wrote 13 songs in 4 films,namely Mali-44, Aap ki Sewa mein-47 (Lata Mangeshkar’s first playback song was written by Mahipal in this film), Mere Laal-48 and Adalat-48. Mahipal acted in 131 Hindi films. He had also worked in Marathi, Rajasthani and Assamese films. His first film was Nazrana-42 and the last film was Amar Jyoti-84….a career spanning 42 years. He worked with Shakila in 18 films, with Anita Guha in 11 films,With Shyama in 6 films, and in 4 films with Nirupa Roy. He worked with Meena Kumari in 4 films. He is the only actor in Mythological films who sang a song on screen in the role of Shri Ram, in the film Hanuman Pataal Vijay-1951.
He died in Mumbai of cardiac arrest, at the age of 86. He was survived by his wife Akkal Kunwar and daughters Sushila Jain and Nirmala Oswal. (Thanks to book Inhe na Bhulana by Harish Raghuwanshi ji and my notes).
Today’s song is the YIPPEE song, as all songs of this film get covered here with this song. Enjoy….

Today’s song is a comedy duet from the film Alibaba and 40 Thieves-1954.
Stories of Arabian Nights or 1001 Nights are so interesting that for many generations they have been a source of entertainment.Alibaba,Allauddin and Sindbad are the evergreen stories. Arabian Night stories evolved through a story which took place in Persia. King Shahriyar became a woman hater after he found that his wife was unfaithful to him. He not only killed her,but he started marrying a new girl every time and on the second day of Marriage the wife would be killed to avoid unfaithfulness.
The legend says that a beautiful young daughter of the Vizier-Scheherazade decided to marry the king Shahriyar,against wishes of her family. On the first night of marriage,she started telling him a story which she left unfinished. Curious to know the story’s end,the king postponed her killing. On every night Scheherazade employed the same technique-keeping the story unfinished. Thus she continued 1001 stories on 1001 nights. Finally the king changed his opinion and pardoned his wife.
During our school days stories of Alibaba, Sindbad,Allauddin and his magic lamp, Hatimtai, Gulbakawali and such other stories enchanted us. It seemed fantastic reading them. I doubt very much if today’s school children read these stories. Maybe only a few will be familiar with these names. Naturally, during our young age, there were many films also made on these stories.
These stories included Historical stories,love tales,tragedies.comedies,poems,eroticas,stories of Jinn,ghosts and apes,Sorcerers,magicians etc etc. places like Basara,Istanbul,Baghdad etc were frequently mentioned in these stories. A lot of films were made on different popular characters of Arabian Nights. Here is a short history of films made, it may not be complete but surely is an indicator of how the Indian film industry took advantage of readymade interesting stories. These stories were liked by not only children, but also millions of adults – like me, for example.
A cursory look at the Film Title Index-1913 to 2012 by Hamraz ji tells us that the most popular stories are on Allauddin, Alibaba and Sinbad as well as Gul E Bakavli, besides films on other not so well known characters. In the Silent film era, films on Alibaba were made in 1927 (2films), Allauddin in 1927 (2), 1928,1931 Sindbad in 1930(2) and Arabian Nights-1930. During the Talkie films, the first film on Alibaba was in 1932, then in 40,46,54(2),66,76,77,80 and 2004. On Aladdin in 35, 36, 39,41, 49,52 (2), 55, 57,58,66,78, 82(2). On Sindbad in 46(2),52(2),58,65 and 2000.
As always, the creative heads in the story departments of filmmakers invented titles like Alladin ka Beta, Alladin ki Beti, Aladdin and Laila. Similarly son and daughter were gifted to Alibaba and Sinbad and films made on them. The funniest title was ” Sindbad, Alibaba and Allauddin “-1965 ! On a quick check of HFGK entries for the 1940s decade we find that as many as 9 films were made in 1946 alone on these characters. Added were Baghdad ka chor, Hoor E Baghdad, Sher E Baghdad, Arab ka chand and Shah E Misr-in which actor Ajit debuted with his real name Hamid.
Most of these stories took place in the Middle East cities which were land locked. However, one character – Sindbad was a sailor and his stories of adventures and voyages to magical, strange and unbelievable places were mind boggling. He was equally popular as Alibaba and Allauddin.
Film Alibaba and 40 Thieves-1954 was made by Basant Pictures and it was directed by its owner Homi Wadia. The music was by the pair of S.N.Tripathi and Chitragupt. In his initial days, Chitragupt had been Tripathi’s assistant for a few years. He has also sung some songs under his baton. This film was first censored on 10-3-1954 as a B & W film. However, its colour version was again censored on 22-11-1956.
A Tamil remake of this film was made in 1956 by Basant pictures with local stars. S. Dakshinmoorthy had done the music orchestration of the Tamil songs which had used all tunes from its Hindi original. The cast of the Hindi film was Shakeela, Mahipal, B.M. Vyas, S.N.Tripathi, Maruti, Sharda Deulkar, Shalini, Ismail, Dalpat, Azeem, Sardar Mansoor and many more. The original story as appeared in “The Arabian Nights’ was adapted by J.B.H.Wadia, by changing its last part of events. His name is given as the Story Writer in the film credits. Finally, the story of the film was like this……..
Alibaba (Mahipal) lives in the city of Dil Pazir. His dancer friend Marjina (Shakila) notices that he pays great attention to his sister Salma (Shalini), after his elder brother Qasim (S.N.Tripathi) has usurped all his ancestral property. His friend Abboo (Maruti) loves Sitara (Sharda Deulkar), Salma’s companion.
When Alibaba goes to the jungle for wood cutting, he accidentally sees the dacoit Abu Hasan (B.M.Vyas) and notes the password to get into his cave of treasure. In the night, Alibaba quietly opens the cave door with the password and collects a lot of wealth and becomes rich. The cunning wife of his brother comes to know and gets him arrested. Margina cleverly gets Alibaba out of jail and they run away with Salma and Abboo.
Qasim goes into the cave, collects wealth but at the time of leaving forgets the password and is stuck inside. Abu Hasan comes and kills Qasim, severing his head from body. Alibaba sees this in his next visit to the cave and brings the dead body parts to his house. Marjina brings a blindfolded tailor who sews the body with the head. This news reached Abu Hasan. To corner and kill Alibaba, he visits his house as a Saudagar along with his 40 thieves hidden in sacks. Marjina recognises him and with the help of Sitara and Abboo, they throw all sacks in a deep valley killing all thieves. Then Marjina tries to kill Abu Hasan, but he tricks her and runs away with her to the hideout. In the climax, Alibaba rescues Marjina, kills Abu Hasan and in the end all is well.
Homi Wadia, the Director, was a man of principles. He separated from his brother on the issue of making the type of films and formed his own film company and studio – Basant Pictures. He was in love with his Heroine The Fearless Nadia. When his mother objected and opposed this marriage, he waited till the death of his mother in 1961 and then married Nadia, when they both were in their 50’s. Disgusted with the illegal strike in his studio, he closed his studio but did not compromise.
Homi Wadia (22 May 1911 – 10 December 2004) was a film director and producer in Bollywood (Hindi cinema). He was the co-founder of Wadia Movietone productions, established in 1933 and later after leaving Wadiatone, he founded Basant Pictures in 1942. In a career spanning five decades, he directed over 40 films, including Hunterwali (1935), Miss Frontier Mail (1936), Diamond Queen (1940) and fantasy film Hatim Tai (1956). He was also a founding member of the Film & Television Producers Guild of India, established in 1954. Homi Wadia was married to actress and stunt woman Fearless Nadia. Homi was the younger brother of JBH Wadia, who was himself a movie director.
Wadia was from a Parsi family, and his ancestors came from the shipbuilding family, Wadia family (Wadia Group) originally from Surat in Gujarat state of western India, which also built the British-wartime ship HMS Trincomalee (1817). His ancestors moved to Bombay in the 18th century. After completing his schooling, at age 16, he joined college for a day, but decided instead to join films, and started assisting his elder brother, director JBH Wadia.
Homi Wadia had a film career spanning 5 decades where he started as a cinematographer in Lal-e-Yaman (1933), the year he co-established Wadia Movietone with his elder brother JBH Wadia, film distributor Manchersha B. Billimoria, and brothers Burjor and Nadirsha Tata. However Tata brothers left the partnership within three years, the company continued production of film, documentaries and newsreels from its studios by Lowjee Castle, Mumbai, Wadia family mansion of his great grandfather Lovji Nusserwanjee Wadia, a noted shipbuilder, who founded the Wadia Group in 1736. The company even had its logo as a ship, honouring their family legacy.
The last film made by the company was Raj Nartaki (1941) under the direction of Madhu Bose, thereafter V. Shantaram bought the studio in 1942 and established Rajkamal Kalamandir in the premises. Homi Wadia, who worked as a director of the company, went on to establish Basant Pictures in the same year, though initially as a film production house. Subsequently, he established a film studio under the same banner in 1947, which functioned till 1981. Eventually he progressed as an movie director, producer and also a drama actor and founded Basant Pictures (Basant Studios) Homi is particularly famous for his movies along with Nadia namely Hunterwali, Miss Frontier Mail and Hatim Tai. As a Director his first film was Veer Bharat-1934 and the last film was The Adventures of Allauddin-1979.
In 1981, he got into a labour dispute with union leader Datta Samant, unable to take on the dispute, he decided to quit filmmaking and closed down Basant Studios. He continued to live in Mumbai after his retirement. Even till late in his life, he remained active, and even after his wife Nadia died in 1996, he regularly visited Basant theatre in Chembur. He died at the age of 93, in Mumbai in 2004.
Today’s song is a comedy duet. Actor Maruti and Sharda Deulkar enacted this song on the screen. Interestingly, this song was also used again in the film Diler daku-1957 by Mohd. Shafi. Enjoy this song….

Lyrics(Provided by Prakashchandra)
sharmaa ke lajaa ke main ek jhalak dikhlaaoon
haath kisee ke na aaoon
sharmaa ke lajaa ke main ek jhalak dikhlaaoon
haath kisee ke na aaoon
anjaam inhein maaloom nahin
masti mein hain ye deewaa..aaney
masti mein hain ye deewaaney
anjaam inhein maaloom nahin
masti mein hain ye deewaa…aaaney
masti mein hain ye deewaaney
kyun shammaa jalee mehfil ye sajee
ye raaz koyi naa jaaney aey ae
ye raaz koyee na jaaney
tadpaa ke dikhaa ke main naaz-o-adaa chali jaaoon
laut ke phir nahin aaoon
tadpaa ke dikhaa ke main naaz-o-adaa chali jaaoon
laut ke phir nahin aaoon
sharmaa ke lajaa ke main ek jhalak dikhlaaoon
haath kisee ke na aaoon
mere lab pe hansee
mere dil mein khushi
mere jaal mein panchchi aaye..aey
mere jaal mein panchchee aaye
mere lab pe hansee
mere dil mein khushi
mere jaal mein panchchi aaye..aey
mere jaal mein panchchee aaye
naa main jaanoon
naa dil jaaney
kab waar meraa chal jaaye aey ae
kab waar meraa chal jaaye
bal khaa ke chalaa ke main teer-e-nazar itraaoon
dil na kisee se milaaoon
bal khaa ke chalaa ke main teer-e-nazar itraaoon
dil na kisee se milaaoon
sharmaa ke lajaa ke main ek jhalak dikhlaaoon
haath kisee ke na aaoon

It is the turn of “Q” now. I had decided on this song sometime ago. And having looked for other options too, came back to this song.
The singer here singing a Rafi solo, is an unknown actor. He is a tailor by profession and has been offered 1000 dinars to stitch up a dead body. How morbid, I thought. Hence I was looking for a different occasion, location , occupation kind of song. But it turns out that this is the “Q ‘ song for the time being. The poor fellow has an unpleasant task in front of him and an obscene amount of money for this work which will take care of his poverty for a while.
