Today’s song is from the film Mr. Sampath-1952.

The cast of the film was Motilal, Padmini, Vanaja, Kanhaiyalal, Agha, Badri Prasad, Sundari bai and many South Indian artistes. The music was by the pair- Balkrishna alias B.S.Kalla and E.Sankar Sastry. The film was produced by Gemini and directed by S.S.Vasan, owner of the banner. The film was based on the novel “Mr. Sampath- Printer of Malgudi” by the famous writer R.K.Narayan and a hit Tamil film ” Miss Malini”-1947. I have read the novel and also seen this film, after it was released on 25-12-1952 and again 2-3 times after few more years…the latest being in last month. There are many changes in the story. The novel’s Hero is very loveable, so is the film’s Hero but only as entertainment.

I am sure Prime Minister Modi ji will pat me on the back for bringing this song to limelight today. However, rest assured, that was not my aim. I just wanted to discuss a song from the film Mr. Sampat-1952. The song’s first lines are ‘Hurra Hurra, achhe din aa rahen hain’. This is merely a coincidence !

VINTAGE SHAMSHAD BEGUM…Song No. 10…Last song of the series.
——————————————————————–

Today’s song is from the film Mangala-1950. It is a duet of Shamshad Begum and T.A.Moti. This is also the last song of this series.

In this series, we have heard,so far, 9 duets of Shamshad Begum, from her early films in the 40s. From the first film of hers in Bombay (Taqdeer) to her first film in Madras(Mangala), we have heard duets with 9 different singers, featuring Motilal, Surendra, K S Raagi, Ram Kamlani, Anil Biswas, G M Durani, Sulochana Kadam, Lata and Chitalkar and today is the 10th singer T.A.Moti. I wanted to include her duets with S D Batish, Geeta Dutt, Mohd.Rafi and Surinder Kaur, but it was not possible to accomodate them in this series.
