(Debutant Movie – Sikkaa-1976)
Today I am presenting a lesser heard or never heard Qawwaalee song from the movie ‘Sikkaa-1976’. I do not remember to have discussed or heard about this title during my growing up years in the seventies. I became aware of this movie title through Geet Kosh Volume-V (1971-1980). It seems that this movie ‘Sikkaa’ was an obscure movie of its time, as the list of the songs of this movie didn’t appear familiar to me. But what piqued my interest is the title of this song and it being mentioned as a ‘qawwaalee’ song.
“Sikkaa-1976” was directed by Dilip Bose for ‘Mona Movies, Bombay’. This movie was passed by Censor Board on 30.12.1976. It had Anil Dhawan, Ambika Johar, Krishan Dhawan, Satyen Kappu, Helen, Aashu, Bhushan Tiwari, Mohan Choti, Rajan Haksar, Kalpana Shah, Agha, Dalda, Jugnu, Bholanath, Ratan Gaurang, Satish Khanna, Krishna Khanna, Pradeep Suri, Child artiste Dharmender and others. Child artistes Lovely, Kittu, and Soni make their debut in this movie and Nana Palsikar, Keshto Mukherjee and Anjana Mumtaz had special appearances in this movie.

Today’s song is from the Mythological film Navratri-1955.
Made by Bhagyodaya Pictures, Bombay, it was directed by Raman B. Desai. It was produced by R.U.Patel and Natwar Shyam. The music was by the king of Melody – Chitragupt, ably assisted by Dilip Dholakia. The cast of the film was Nirupa Roy, Manahar desai, Sapru, S.N.Tripathi, Lalita Pawar, Kumkum etc. Songs were by G.S.Nepali (6) and Bharat Vyas (2).
Two major actors, who featured in many religious films in Hindi were Manhar Desai and Shahu Modak. You may be surprised to know that both were Christians. Actors who were not Hindus and doing Hindu Gods’ roles in Hindi films, is not new. I remember, there was an actor, Syed Hasan Ali Zaidi aka Mijjan Miyan, with New Theatres, Calcutta. He did the role of Bhakta Pooran in a film with this title in 1933. Just before the release of the film, there were communal riots in Calcutta.
