Today’s song is from a Mythological film – Shiv Kanya-1954.

The decade of the 1950 was known for 2 things. As we all know, the first thing was that it was the peak of “The Golden Era” of Hindi film music. Secondly, it was also the peak of Mythological and Religious films (124 films in 10 years). So, there was atleast 1 such new film every month continuously for the next 120 months !

When so many Mythological films are made, naturally many stories are repeated in some way or the other. Usually stories from the 18 Puranas, 18 Up-Puranas and 2 Epics- Ramayana and Mahabharat are used for films. Fed up with the usual stories, some filmmakers tried to find unused new stories from the puranas,while some tried to cook up own stories by using the Mythological names and mixing several stories.

Hullo Atuldom

Bindu Nanubhai Desai (known to us as Bindu) turns 85 today. She has been an entertainer since the 1960s. Her father Nanubhai Desai was a film producer who died when she was about 13. And like many others of that period, like (for example) the Mangeshkar sisters in the 1940s, the burden of earning money fell on her shoulders as she was the eldest of seven siblings. She made her debut in 1962 as Mala Sinha’s daughter in ‘Anpadh”. (An interesting trivia is that Bindu’s cousin Aruna Irani played the character of the young Mala Sinha in that film). The very classical music based song ‘jiya le gayo ji mora’ was filmed on her.

‘The Killers’ (1969) with its alternative title ‘Ham Sab Qaatil Hain’ (1969) was produced by A V Mohan under the banner of Sangam Pictures and was directed by Maruti. The cast included Dara Singh, Ajit, Sheikh Mukhtar, Helen, Paul Sharma, Amar, Kundan, Bela Bose, S K Prem, Leela Chitnis, Maruti etc.

The surprise element in the film was the unusual role of Dara Singh as a secret agent, something like the role of Jeetendra in ‘Farz’ (1967). Probably, the success of ‘Farz’ (1967) may have inspired director, Maruti to develop the character of Dara Singh on that line. For the first time, I have watched Dara Singh in immaculate western attire and dancing with girls. But he is no ‘jumping jack’ like Jeetendra. Ajit had a double role in this film.

Sunday 12 April 2026 was a sad day for music lovers. Just as people were waking up to a leisurly sunady morning that they came to know that Asha Bhonsle was hospitalised following some uneasiness. Such age related problems are normal, most people thought and got on with their lives. But a few hours later, came the shocking news that Asha Bhonsle was no more. What a devastating loss for music lovers. It was on another sunday that Lata Mangeshkar had departed for her heavenly abode. That was four years ago. So both sisters have followed each other at the same age of 92.
