Today’s song is from the film Dr.Z-1959.

When I first saw the title of this film, I thought it to be a Sci- Fi film. In the period of the 1950s and the 1960s many Sci Fi films from Hollywood were coming to India and our clever filmmakers used to grab the story matter. By making few changes in the story to protect themselves from legal action (like the film Begunah-1957), Hindi films were made by them. It is not that there was a shortage of good stories or there were no creative story writers in the industry, but many B and C grade filmmakers found this method profitable and saleable. In those days, a certain section of the film audience was devoted to such films.

However, when I found later – to my dismay – that this was just an ordinary crime story film mixed with a Love story, I was disappointed. looking at its cast, director and the Music director, one could easily guess the type of film that it was. The title of the film was supposed to arouse the interest of the fixed audience.

Geeta Dutt – Solos and duets (02)
————————————–————————————–

Among Geeta Dutt’s endearing songs, there are innumerable duets. Maximum no. of her duets is bound to be with Mohammed Rafi sahab, for the obvious reason that at the times she was most active, coincides with the period when various music directors were having all male songs sung by Rafi sahab. So there are films where Rafi sahab has duets with Lata, Asha and Geeta, plus solos by all of them, with a female duet also thrown it. This would be a typical late 50’s music score. Sometimes a female singer or two are changed and Shamshad Begum is there, with one solo and/or duet.
