Today’s song is from the ‘Social’ film – Sara Jahan Hamara-1961.

I do not understand on what basis filmmakers give titles to their films. This film is categorised as a ‘Social’ film in HFGK. The film story has a murder, lootmar, girl trading, fighting, court, Jail and such things. Embedded in all this there is a Love story. In my opinion, the film should have been classified either as a stunt/action film or a crime/mystery film.

Anyway, it is always a mystery how the film makers decide the titles of their films. When I rummaged through the The Film Title index book (1931-2012) by Hamraz ji, I found some interesting titles.

In the Indian traditional societal setting, the men are regarded as the bread winner for the family while the women are assigned as homemakers who stay at home and manage the kitchen, housekeeping, taking care of the children etc. In urban setting, some women have dual roles. They are not only the homemakers, but they are also the working women giving the financial support to the family. Men are not expected to be homemakers. These gender-based responsibilities have been majorly followed in India since long. The role reversal in responsibilities between husband and wife was unthinkable even in the last century and it is still not fully appreciated.

There has been some cases of role reversal taking place especially in metropolitan and urban India. I had known one such case in my office as early as in 1965 when the wife was working in my office and her husband was employed in a private firm. But the situation in the family forced the wife to think of resigning from her service to look after her infant when the alternative arrangements did not work out. Her husband volunteered to resign from his private job on a realistic consideration as the wife was getting higher salary than him. At that time, her husband was the talking point in my office as it was thought to be a revolutionary step by him.

Hullo Atuldom

“Hamjoli” (1970) was produced by Prasan Kapoor for Tirupati Pictures meaning it was Jeetendra’s home production. T. R. Ramanna was the director.

“”Hamjoli” was the remake of the 1964 Tamil hit ‘Panakkara Kudumbam’ (transl. Rich Family) starring M. G. Ramachandran. That film released on 24 April 1964, and ran for more than 150 days in theatres. The film was remade in Hindi in 1970 as ‘Humjoli’, in Kannada in 1978 as ‘Bhale Huduga’, and in Telugu in 1984 as ‘Intiguttu’. All versions except ‘Intiguttu’ were directed by the same director, T. R. Ramanna.

Kamsune/Unsune songs of Asha Bhosle – 48

1973 had been the year in which many silver/golden jubilee films were released. Some of the major blockbusters were Bobby, Jugnu, Daag, Zanjeer, Yaadon Ki Baraat, Kahani Kismat Ki, Loafer, etc etc.

Dharmendra had 9 releases, whereas Rajesh Khanna had 3 releases, Big B had 3 releases.

And I was in my 7th standard. In this year I started bunking classes regularly to watch a new release and some old movies on repeat runs every week. For me 1973 holds some strong nostalgic memories which makes me happy and sad in that singular moment.

So here’s a rare song from a film released in early 1973. The song, “Kash Pe Kash Lagane De” from Naya Nasha (1973), is sung by Asha Bhosle, written by Anand Bakshi and composed by Sapan Chakraborty.

As I am nearing my 100th post (currently at 96 posts), I am looking for some songs sung by the big 4 (ie) Mohd. Rafi Saab, Kishore Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhosle. With over 19K songs posted on the blog it’s quite difficult to find songs by these legends.

However, as I was contemplating on songs to be posted, I found this rare trio sung by Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle and two/three lines by Manna Dey.

The song, “Aag Se Aag Bujhale” is from a 1973 movie “Jalte Badan”. This film was produced and directed by Ramanand Sagar.

It starred Kiran Kumar, Kumkum, Padma Khanna, Alka, Sujit Kumar, Dinesh Thakur, Viju Khote, Karan Dewan, Krishan Dhawan, Pradeep Kumar, Jagdish Raj etc.

‘Kaanch Ki Deewaar’ (1986) was an obscure film which I came to know only recently. The film was produced by Kamal Chaudhary and M N Yasin and the latter directed the film. Both the names are new to me and this was their debut film. The cast included Sanjeev Kumar, Smita Patil, Amrish Puri, Shakti Kapoor, Om Prakash, Rajan Sippy (debutant), Purnima, Neelu Phule, Urmila Bhatt, Raj Mehra, Lalita Kumari, Murad, Madhu Malini, Jagdeep, Birbal, Hina Kausar, Jaishree T etc. The film was released on January 31, 1986, about three months after the passing away of Sanjeev Kumar.

It appears that the film took long time to complete or to get it released as I find that there is a song by Mohammed Rafi in the film who had passed away in July 1980. The film’s lead actress, Smita Patil had started working in the mainstream commercial films in 1981 by signing a spate of such films to prove that she can as well be a successful actor in such films. The same combination of producer and director had started one more film, ‘Waqt Kaa Sikandar’ (1996) when the film under discussion was delayed in getting released. It seems the second film failed to get completed or released.

#the Decade of Seventies – 1971 – 1980 #

#Bhoole-Bisre Geet # (Qawwalis – Part-2 – Post-13)

(Debutant Movie – Sikkaa-1976)

Today I am presenting a lesser heard or never heard Qawwaalee song from the movie ‘Sikkaa-1976’. I do not remember to have discussed or heard about this title during my growing up years in the seventies. I became aware of this movie title through Geet Kosh Volume-V (1971-1980). It seems that this movie ‘Sikkaa’ was an obscure movie of its time, as the list of the songs of this movie didn’t appear familiar to me. But what piqued my interest is the title of this song and it being mentioned as a ‘qawwaalee’ song.

“Sikkaa-1976” was directed by Dilip Bose for ‘Mona Movies, Bombay’. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 30.12.1976. It had Anil Dhawan, Ambika Johar, Krishan Dhawan, Satyen Kappu, Helen, Aashu, Bhushan Tiwari, Mohan Choti, Rajan Haksar, Kalpana Shah, Agha, Dalda, Jugnu, Bholanath, Ratan Gaurang, Satish Khanna, Krishna Khanna, Pradeep Suri, Child artiste Dharmender and others. Child artistes Lovely, Kittu, and Soni make their debut in this movie and Nana Palsikar, Keshto Mukherjee and Anjana Mumtaz had special appearances in this movie.
