Today’s song is from a ‘social’ film called ‘Captain Kishore’ (1957).

I was wondering what was the basis of calling this film a ‘social’ film, because it was clearly a stunt/costume film having the usual King- Queen-Evil Vazir/Evil Senapati story. I have seen this film and also give its story for you today. The Wadia Movietone was famous for making action/stunt/costume films, since the early 30’s decade The owners of Wadia split in 1942 on the issue of whether to continue making the action/stunt films. The younger brother Homi Wadia was in favour of making stunt films, while the elder brother JBH Wadia wanted to make social films, because he was seeing impending sunset on stunt films in the near future, and hence wanted to make social films on priority to survive.

Today’s song is from film Captain Kishore-1957. It is sung by Geeta Dutt under the baton of the magician of melody-Chitragupt.

Today I am deviating from my usual style of writing, because I am writing on my favourite singer- Geeta Dutt. So, no biography of any artiste and no other details. Only Geeta Dutt !

Collecting information from forgotten artists is extremely difficult. First problem is to find them. Many yesteryear actors who are still alive are living in anonymity. People who live around them also may not know their identity, many times. If they are members of CINTAA (Cine and TV Artists’ Association, Mumbai), one may get their addresses, but some actors do not even inform CINTAA, when they shift.

It was on 16th november 1917 that Chitragupta Srivastava was born in Bihar. He went to Bombay and earned fame as music director Chitragupta. He preferred to keep a low profile and was happy to compose for B grade movies, where he composed absolutely A grade music. A grade movie makers would have happily worked with Chitragupta if only Chitragupta had gone and met them. For instance, the first time that Chitragupta met with Raj Kapoor was in 1980s, when his music director sons Anand and Milind introduced him to raj Kapoor at a function. And Raj Kapoor told him that he would have definitely used him as a music director in his movies if only he had met him.
