Today’s song is an Aarti of Bhagwan Shankar, from the film Vikramaditya-1945. Our friend Avinash Abhang (Scrapwala) ji has given me the song link and the detailed Lyrics of this Aarti. He has taken a lot of effort to meticulously write down the lyrics as it contained 3 voices of singers and chorus. In addition, it also has some difficult words which had to be noted carefully. I thank him profusely as he very kindly sent this to me, knowing that I am a Shiv- Bhakta. May Lord Shiv ji Bless him !

Vikramaditya (1945) is a Hindi historical drama directed by Vijay Bhatt under the Prakash Pictures banner. The film stars legendary actor Prithviraj Kapoor in the title role of King Vikramaditya of Avanti, Prem Adib as the court poet Mahakavi Kalidas, and Ratnamala as Princess Shrilekha, along with other artistes like Ranjana, Zillobai, Bhagwandas and Baburao Pendharkar etc etc. All the 9 songs were written by Ramesh Gupta and the music was by the in-house Music Director of Prakash Pictures- Shankar Rao Vyas. he film was directed by Vijay Bhatt.

Today’s song is from an obscure and less known film- Miss Devi-1944.

This film had a story revolving around twin sisters who looked alike. The 1940s were replete with such ‘ Look alike’ films, as if there was a great demand for these films. Few days back I wrote about the film Dhandora-1941 which too had ‘Look alikes’ in its story. Another well known film was Muqabla-1942, a film with Fearless Nadia, with such a story. I have always wondered why the film stories get repeated so frequently, as if there is a shortage of imagination. Few years ago, I answered this question.

Today’s song is from an obscure, less known Historical film Maharani Minal Devi-1946.

Made by Laxmi productions, Bombay, it was directed by Chimanlal Trivedi, owner of the banner and the music was by Saraswati Devi- who had started her career from Bombay Talkies. The cast was Prem Adib, Leela Desai, Durga Khote, Jagdish Sethi, Sankatha Prasad, Moni Chaterjee etc.etc. There were only 7 songs in this film, written by Neelkanth Tiwari and Swami Ramanand. The number of songs-7 was below the average of 9.8 songs for the decade of 1940.

1946 was an important year in the history of Hindi films. This was the period when the impending Independence of India was on the Anvil and everyone knew that in the year 1947 it would take place. The second World War had just ended, which had created inumerable millionaires, fed on black marketing and illegal trades in the war period. Many of them were keen on investing their ill gotten wealth in the film industry. Thus, there was no dearth of finances in the industry. From 1946 to around the early years of the 50’s, some of these ” novo-rich” persons provided finance. Some even tried their hand at directing films or even acting in it. Let us see what other things happened during this period.
