Today’s song is from a Comedy cum Suspense cum Love story cum identical double role film Dhandora-1941.
Dhandora is a typical North Indian Hindi word, with which not many other state people may be aware of. Since there is an almost similar word with the same meaning, in Marathi, I knew about this word and so, maybe many Maharashtra readers too will know it.

‘Daasi’ (1944) was produced under the banner of Pradhan Pictures and was directed by Hiren Bose. The cast included Najam-ul-Hasan and Ragini in the lead roles supported by Kalavati, Khairati, G N Butt, Charlie, Om Prakash, Gyani, Fazal Shah, Manzoor etc. The story of the film was written by Dalsukh Pancholi. I have strong reason to believe that Pradhan Pictures was Dalsukh Pancholi’s ‘ghost’ banner as I find his name on the Censor Certificate as applicant.
The film’s lead actor, Najam-ul-Hasan (in the credit title of the film, his name is spelled as Najam Hussain) became well known for an incidence while working in the Bombay Talkies film, ‘Jeevan Naiyya’ (1936) as a lead actor opposite Devika Rani, wife of Himanshu Rai, the founder of the Bombay Talkies. During the making of the film, Najam-ul-Hasan eloped with Devika Rani to Calcutta (Kolkata). While Devika Rani was convinced by Sashadhar Mukerjee to return to Bombay Talkies, Ashok Kumar who was working in the Bombay Talkies as a laboratory assistant got a chance to work as a lead actor opposite Devika Rani, replacing Najam-ul-Hasan.

Today’s song is the last and the final song from the film Sunehre Din-1949. The film made by Jagat Pictures was directed by Satish Nigam and the music was by Gyan Dutt. The cast of the film included Rehana, Raj Kapoor, Nigar Sultana, Haroon, Heera Sawant, Ramesh Sinha and others.
The songs of this film were quite enchanting and a few of them became very popular. Especially the solo song “Baharon ne jise chheda” by Mukesh and the duet “Maine dekhi jag ki reet ” by Mukesh and Shamshad Begum are heard even today by song lovers – which includes me too ! For the film’s 10 songs, Gyan Dutt had used 8 singers like Geeta Roy, Shamshad Begum, Sulochana Kadam, Kalyani, Mukesh, Khan Mastana, Durrani and Surinder Kaur. Today’s song is by Surinder Kaur.

Today’s song is from a much less known film – Aai Bahar-1946.
1946 was an important year in the history of Hindi films. This was the period when the impending Independence of India was on the Anvil and everyone knew that in the year 1947 it would take place. At the same time when the country was to be divided on the basis of Religion and another muslim country Pakistan was to come into existence. Many of the muslims in the film industry were excitedly awaiting their departure from India to the Utopia. This would, naturally, create a lot of vacancies in every department of film making. However, there was enough talent available in the remaining India to fill up the void. Hence from the year 1946 itself there were several debutantes. This made the year 1946 an year of Debuts of several new actors, directors, MDs, Lyricists etc etc.
