#Krishn-Sudama’s friendship#
———————————————————————
(Lyricist Kavi Pradeep-31)
——————————-

Today is ‘World Friendship Day’!!! In our culture we have several legends and stories on friendship and the most popular and touching of them is the story of Krishn-Sudama from our mythology. We also have many Hindi Films made on the theme of friendship. We have many songs based on ‘dost’, ‘dostee’, ‘yaar’, ‘yaaree’ etc. etc.

Today’s song is dedicated to the friendship of Lord Krishn and his poor childhood friend Sudama. The song under discussion is penned by Kavi Pradeep. I have listened to it many times while preparing ths writeup. Every time Listening to this song has given me goose pimples every single time. It is a beautiful and touching song describing the visit of Sudama to the palace of his the childhood friend of Lord Krishn visits him in his palace. The two friends are meeting after a long time and as mentioned in the song this meeting is happening after the ‘Mahaabhaarat yuddh’.

Today’s song is from the comedy film Hangama-1952.

1952 was an year which was going through a lean period for Hindi films. Increased costs of Film production, escalating rates of stars and music Directors, establishment of Star System in place of earlier Studio System, increasing taxes, decreasing number of Cinema Halls etc caused a worry in the film industry. Financiers with Black money were making films – in 1952 the number of Hindi films made went up to 105 from 97 of 1951, but dropped again to 98 in 1953. Most films were of lower quality. Because of superior music there were some great films too, but the situation was grave nevertheless.
