The song being covered in the article is a nice melodious bhajan from the movie ‘Bhakt Dhruv-1957’.

As many as seven Hindi films have been made on the story of Dhruv Kumar or Bhakt Dhruv. These movies are ‘Dhruv Charitra-1933’, ‘Dhruv Kumar-1938’, ‘Bhakta Dhruva-1947’, ‘Bhakta Dhruv-1957’ and ‘Bhakta Dhruv Kumar-1964’ and ‘Baalak Dhruva-1974’. There was one movie in 1983 which was a dubbed movie titled as ‘Bhakta Dhruv-1983’.

Three of the abovementioned movies are already represented in the blog. They are ‘Bhakta Dhruv-1947’, ‘Bhakta Dhruv-1957’ and ‘Bhakta Dhruv Kumar-1964’. The two movies of 1930s are not represented because the songs of these movies are perhaps not available. Movies from the seventies and the eighties could make their debuts in the blog in near future.

“Bhakt Dhruv-1957” was directed by Gunjaal for ‘Ashok Pictures’. It was produced by R.L. Arora and this movie was passed by Censor Board on 18.10.1957. The cast of this movie had Sulochana, Shahu Modak, Jeevan, Vinod Kumar, Bimla, Sundar, Gulaab, Shammi, Ramesh Kapoor, Amar, Kesho and others.

Today’s song is a devotional cum philosophical song from the movie ‘Bhakta Dhrvu-1957’. I never came across this song earlier and I have no recollections of having listened to it yet this song seems to be familiar to me. The composition by Basant Prakash is very nice and Asha Bhonsle has sung this song so well that listening to it becomes a divine experience.

Today’s song is from the film Bhakta Dhruv-1947.

This was the first Talkie film on Bhakta Dhruv. The next came in 1957 and the third with the same title was in 1983. In between, another title called Bhakta Dhruv Kumar came in 1964. Going through the Film Title index, one finds that a total of 30 films with titles “Bhakta….” were made from 1934 to 1983. These were mostly different Bhakts like Kabir, Gopal Bhaiyya, Pooran, Soordas, Ramdas etc. Six films were made on Bhakta Prahlad.
