#the Decade of Fifties – 1951 – 1960 #
————————————————————————
I joined this blog as a ‘lyrics contributor’ in September’2012 and I began by sharing lyrics of songs from the seventies to pre-eighties. These songs were the songs those were ‘nostalgic’ for me and ‘songs that brings back memories’ for me. Slowly and gradually during my daily browsing I started coming across many golden oldies that I was not aware of or the songs that I had never listened before. I was also under the impression the songs possessed by me on the cassettes were the old songs that were available because I was not aware of the total number of songs created till then. It was only after I came in contact with this blog that I became aware of the number of songs created. That put things in perspective for me and I realised where my collection of 400-500 cassettes stood vis a vis that total number of HFM songs.
I started enjoying the golden era songs and I shared some songs of my favorite singer Geeta Dutt also. It was a regular practice for me in the beginning but as years passed I have learnt that there are still many songs yet to be discovered and brought here on the blog.
Today’s movie is one such movie from the 1950s that I become aware of when I come across a song sung by Lata Mangeshkar. I had shared it in 2014. Incidentally this movie was also introduced on the blog the same time in 2014 when a song was presented by our In house encyclopedia Shri Arunkumar ji on the blog. That song ‘dil naache aur gaaye jawaani’ was posted on the blog on 22.02.2014. The second song from this movie was added to the blog on 22.03.2014. There was a long wait for the third song to appear which was posted on the blog on 06.09.2020 which again was a post by our Shri Arunkumar ji.
Today I am presenting the fourth song from this movie which is in the voice of Geeta Dutt. As per the list of songs for this movie mentioned in the HFGK Vol-III (1951-1960) this is the only song sung by Geeta Dutt in this movie. I am also giving below the details of the songs in this movie.
Before that here is a brief about this movie taken from HFGK Vol-III.

The star cast of this movie included Nigar, Wasti, Kuldeep, Baby Tabassum, Husna Bano, Balam, Murad, Tiwari, Wazeer Muhammad Khan, Faizi, Ismail, Sayyad, Shakeela, Noorjahan, Mirza Musharraf and others.

This movie has nine songs written by three lyricist viz. Raja Mehndi Ali Khan, Wahid Qureshi and Noor Lucknowi.

#the Decade of Fifties – 1951 – 1960 #
————————————————————————
The song under discussion is from the ‘1952’ movie ‘Paataal Bhairavi’.
“Paataal Bhairavi-1952” was directed by K.V. Reddy for ‘Vijaya Productions, Madras’.
It was produced by Nagi Reddy-Chakrapani.
It had N.T. Ramarao, S.V. Rangarao, C.S.R., Relangi, Balakrishnan, Padmnabhan, Malati, T.G. Kamla, Laxmikantham, Hemlatamma Rao, Girija, Surbi Kamla, Chitti and others.
This movie was passed by Censor Board on 10.03.1952.
Here is a brief about this movie mentioned by our Respected Shri Arunkumar ji.
PATAAL BHAIRAVI-52 was directed by K. Venkat Reddy and the music was by Ghantasala (Assisted by A Krishnamurthy). Lyrics were by Pt. Indra. There were 9 songs, sung by Talat Mehmood, G M Durrani, Geeta Roy, Kamala Devi and Jikki (P G Krishnaveni).
The story of ‘Pataal Bhairavi’ is a Fantasy, full of drama, dances, Magic, Sword Fights, Heavy costumes, palaces and accompanied by many Trick scenes.
Ramu (N T Rama Rao) is the son of an ordinary gardener, who falls in love with Princess Indumati (Malati) of Ujjain Kingdom. While the Rajmata has no objection, the king does not approve a commoner. So, Ramu decides to become rich and meets a mantrik (S V Ranga Rao) who promises to make him rich in quick-time. Actually, the Mantrik wants to sacrifice Ramu to the Goddess (Girija) to propitiate her and get rich himself.Ramu comes to know of mantrik’s plan and plays the game in such a way that instead of Ramu, the Mantrik is sacrificed to the Goddess, who appears before Ramu and makes him rich and powerful. Meanwhile, the king is attacked by a big enemy, but Ramu helps the king and defeats the enemy and saves the kingdom. The king is now in his favour and Ramu not only gets married to Indumati but also is declared the heir Apparent to the king’s throne.
There are many trick scenes and sword fights in the film, worth seeing. It is said that actor RANJAN helped the producers in shooting the sword fight scenes.
(The story was once again remade in 1985, with Jeetendra as Ramu, Jayaprada as Indumati and Kader Khan as the Mantrik. Shoma Anand played the Goddess Paataal Bhairavi.)
As mentioned above, this movie has nine songs – all written by Pandit Indra. Music for this movie was composed by Ghantasala.
So far, four songs from ‘Paataal Bhairavi-1952’ have been posted on the blog earlier, as per details given below.
SNo | Song Title | Singer/s | Posted On |
---|---|---|---|
01 | Kahin preet se bhara koi | Geeta Dutt, Talat Mahmood | 18.12.2012 |
02 | Tan man mera tarse | Geeta Dutt | 01.05.2013 |
03 | Bichhad gaye jo saathi | Talat Mahmood | 01.09.2014 |
04 | Prem panthh ko chala musaafir ban kar deewaana | Talat Mahmood | 14.02.2020 |
This song is the fifth song from this movie to appear on the blog. It is sung by Geeta Dutt and accompanied by female chorus.
The picturisation of the song shows N.T. Ramarao as a ‘saadhu’ with one sidekick watching the Princess (I guess. And so it should be Malati) and her ‘sahelis’ who have come to the ‘garden’ for ‘phool kaliyaan chun’ne’ 🙂 as the ‘basant ritu’ has arrived…
So, with ‘basant’ already around let us listen to this lovely song in the voice of Geeta Dutt and enjoy this golden oldie…
Lyrics for this song were sent by Prakashchandra.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No. 15
————————————————————————————–
Welcome all to this post under ‘blog ten year challenge 2013-2023’.
On the first day of this month ten years back (viz on 1 February 2013) five songs were posted on the blog as per details given below.
Song Title | Name of the movie (Year) | Remarks |
---|---|---|
La bulbula | Ustaad Pedro(1951) | Yippeeee’ed |
Meri zindagi ek aisa diya | Naina(1953) | 4 of 7 songs posted |
Tu aaye na aaye teri khushi | Bewafa(1952) | 8 of 9 songs posted |
O kanhaiyya o kanhaiyya | Kanhaiyya(1959) | Yippeeee’ed |
Barbaad e muhabbat ki duaa saath liye jaa | Laila Majnu(1976) | Yippeeee’ed |
Out of the five movies represented on the blog on 01.02.2013 three movies have already been ‘Yippeeee’ed on the blog and that gives us two movies which gives us opportunities to present songs.
If we see the figures for the total number of songs posted in February’2013 it was ‘150’ songs exactly. That means the songs were posted in this month at average of just over ‘five’ songs per day.
If we look at the figures of songs posted in the month of ‘February’ since the inception of the blog we get the following figures.
YEAR | FEBRUARY |
---|---|
2008 | 0* |
2009 | 161 |
2010 | 31 |
2011 | 102 |
2012 | 178 |
2013 | 150 |
2014 | 136 |
2015 | 118 |
2016 | 74 |
2017 | 104 |
2018 | 116 |
2019 | 39 |
2020 | 47 |
2021 | 46 |
2022 | 43 |
*(Blog started later in the year in the month of July’2008)
We can see that the highest score for the month of ‘February’ is ‘178’ in the year ‘2012’. The lowest score of ‘February’ is ‘31’ in the year ‘2010’.
We have started this new year ‘2023’ by scoring a ‘century’ in the month of ‘January-2023’, so let us hope to continue and maintain the ‘scoring rate’ in this month i.e. Feburary’2023 too. 🙂
Let us now come to today’s BTYC movie. Out of the five movies represented on the blog ‘Ustaad Pedro-1951’, ‘Kanhaiyya-1959’ and ‘Laila Majnu-1976’ have been ‘Yippeeee’ed’ on the blog i.e. all songs of these movies have been covered on the blog.
From the two movies eligible today i.e. ‘Bewafa-1952’ and ‘Naina-1953’, I am presenting a song from the ‘1953’ movie ‘Naina’.
“Naina” (1953) was produced by Chandu, and directed by Ravindra Dave for Chandu Studios Limited, Bombay. This movie had Geeta Bali, Abhi Bhattacharya, Neeru, Manju, Leela Mishra, Ramesh Sinha, Ramesh Arora, Khairati, Narbada Shankar, Burhan, Patanjali, Raj Adeeb, Anand Pal, Biman Bannerji and others in it.
This movie was passed by Censor Board on 28.04.1953.

Music for this movie was composed by Manna Dey (four songs) and Ghulam Mohammad (three songs).
So far, four songs from this movie have been posted on the blog. Today’s song is the fifth song from this movie to be posted on the blog.

#the Decade of Forties – 1941 – 1950 #
————————————————————————
Today’s song is from the movie ‘Biwi’ of ‘1950’ (or ‘Beewee’ as HFGK mentions it).
This movie completed its’ ‘ten-year’ run on the blog on 08th January’2023, and so it was due for a song from it to be posted on that day. However, we missed that opportunity. Nevertheless today we will listen to a song from this movie.
‘Biwi-1950’ was directed by Kishore Sharma for ‘Paristaan Pictures’.
It had Mumtaz Shanti, Veena, Madhuri, Naseer, Pran, Ram Lal, Gulnar, Murad, Anjaam, Shabnam, Sheila Burman and others.
This movie has as many as thirteen songs as mentioned in HFGK Vol-II (1941-1950).
So far, three songs form this movie have been discussed on the blog.
This movie had made its debut on the blog wherein our respected Sudhir ji had presented a post with the most well-known (I think so) song from this movie on 08.01.2013. This song is ‘akele mein wo ghabraate to honge’ sung by Rafi Saab.
After this song two songs were added to this movie later in 2017.
Today we will have a look on the list of songs from this movie since it has not been given in the earlier posts .
Lyrics for this movie were contributed by three lyricist viz. Nazim Panipati, Wali Sahab and Aziz Hindi. However lyricists name for the individual songs is mentioned for only six songs and lyricist name for the rest seven songs is not known.
Music for this movie was composed by Aziz Hindi and Khayyam (under the name as Sharma ji).
Here is the list of songs:-
SNo. | Song Title | Lyricist | Singer/s | Posted On |

01 | Jaa jaa re zalimaa tu nahin mera balmaa | Not known | Not known | |
02 | Jaa jaa re … beech ghoonghat kaise | Not known | Not known | |

(** Note – Songs at sr.no. 3, 12 & 13 – Composer is Sharma ji (Khayyam). And songs mentioned at sr.no. 8,9,10 & 11 have been composed by Aziz Hindi.
As per HFGK Vol-II song no.2 is composed by both Aziz Hindi and Sharma ji. )
Today we will listen to song mentioned at sr.no. 09. Singer’s name for this song is mentioned as Geeta Roy and Asha Bhonsle. (I guess that this song is sung by Geeta Roy only.).
I would request knowledgeable readers to throw more light on this movie and its songs.
Lyrics for the today’s song have been sent by Prakashchandra.
Let us enjoy the today’s song now…

On this date ten years back viz on 31 December 2012, seven songs from seven movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-

7300 | Mohabbat ka haath jawaani ka palla | Howrah Bridge(1958) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
We notice that three movies (out of seven) whose songs were discussed ten years ago on this date (viz on 31 decemberb2012) have since been YIPPEED. One of them in fact was YIPPEED on that date.
That leaves us with four movies that are eligible for blog Ten Year Challenge today (31 December 2022).
“Meri Kahaani”(1948) is one movie which is eligile for Blog Ten Year Challenge today.
“Meri Kahaani”(1948) was directed by Keki Mistry for Super Team Federal Productions, Bombay. The movie had Surendra, Munawwar Sultana, Prathima devi, Sanobar, Leela Kumari, Ramesh Sinha, Bhudo Advani, Santosh Kumar, Murad Khan, Vaskar etc in it.
The movie had ten songs in it. Four songs have been covered so far.
Here is the fifth song from “Meri Kahaani”(1948) to appear in the blog. The song is sung by Surendra and Geeta Dutt (then Roy). Pt anuj is the lyricist. Music is composed by K Datta (aka Datta Korgaonkar).
Only audio of the song is available. It is clear that this “expression of love” song was picturised on the le pair viz Surendra and Munawwar Sultana. I request our knowlegeable readers to throw light on the movie as well as on the picturisation of the song.
Song-Bulbul ko mila phool to nadi ko kinaara (Meri Kahaani)(1948) Singer-Geeta Dutt, Surendra, Lyrics-Pt Anuj, MD-K Datta
Lyrics
bulbul ko milaa phool

kartaa hai koi chaand ki khidki se ishaaraa
kartaa hai koi chaand ki khidki se ishaaraa

chha jaaye zamaane pe yahi geet humaara
chha jaaye zamaane pe yahi geet humaara
har dil ko hai duniyaa mein

ik tooti hui naav hai insaan kaa jeewan
armaan nadi aur muhabbat hai kinaara
armaan nadi aur muhabbat hai kinaara
har dil ko hai duniyaa mein
kisi dil kaa sahara
bulbul ko milaa phool to nadi ko kinaara
har dil ko hai duniyaa mein
har dil ko hai duniyaa mein
kisi dil kaa sahaara

98th birth anniversary of Mohammed Rafi sahab
Rafi Sahab’s Legendary Associations – 11
How the human mind works and the vagaries of human memory system, the scientists are still figuring out. I, for one, am very grateful that my memory brings forth to the mind a significant Rafi song to write a post at the most unexpected moment.
Since last few months, things have been very hectic at the domestic front, for no real tangible reason. They just are somewhat crazy, with stress levels running high on the work front too. Family events, travels notwithstanding, I should have written a few more posts this year, if only I could focus. So much so that I was on the verge of advising the HOD that the office needs a “self-help-stress management” “how to make the office atmosphere positive” “How to have healthy work relations with colleagues” sort of workshops/seminar. Not that I am going to do any such thing as advising the HOD, at-least I am trying not to. The thing is, a close friend expressed an opinion, if any such events are organised at the office, this will add to the stress levels of the already stressed-out officers.
I could also suggest some soothing music to be played on the non-existing PA system. There really are many classic music compositions, human civilization has produced. Many of them are having soothing qualities, some have the capacity to amaze the listener, that something like this could be created. There are many amazing and wonderful things, that we human can be grateful for. Sounds of music is one of them. The simplest things in life, which are free are to be valued and be thankful for. I thought the pandemic and tribulations it brought to humans, would make us all better humans, and teach us thankfulness, for many of the blessings which we all take to granted.
Post pandemic, as the world is back to normal, the massive restrictions during 2020 & 2021 are all but forgotten, which seem like a bad dream. Only sometimes I think of those days when work from home was possible, that was one advantage.
I honestly feel, it has had an impact on the evolution of humans. It has had huge psychological impact on young kids and elders. It is to be hoped that kids with the resilience of the young, will get past this bad dream. But the reminders of the bad dream are everywhere around us. The other day, I saw those round circles painted on the floor outside a supermarket. We were made to stand in queue to buy groceries, only a few people allowed inside at a time, to buy essentials for gods sake. If this was not a trial of psychological bondage training imparted to masses, then what was it? No wonder, humans, evolved after the pandemic are more disgruntled than before.
As the scientific community is grappling with the impact on the mental health (which is the new pandemic), lowered immunity in young and old, it is the responsibility and duty of able-minded people in the society to take great care, of their social surroundings, environment and individuals who may need a word or two, of care, of encouragement, of belief, of faith that things do not remain the same, they always change for the better.
No doubt that the research papers and thesis that come out on the impact of COVID – 19 on humanity, will point to the great stress it put on the psychological strength of the world’s populace. For this, the disease is not at fault, but the handling of the crisis, is the culprit. Having said this, I admit that being judgmental in hindsight is easy. But dealing with the aftermath is not going to be easy and it requires all the resilience of humanity.
I read about the voyager 1 & 2 sometime back and about the recordings of sounds to earth which they carried. With great hope I looked for the details of Indian songs in the 90 minutes music record. I found this Hindustani classical song is part of that.
Bhairavi: Jaat Kahan Ho | Traditional | Kesarbai Kerkar (vocals) with harmonium, Tanpura and tabla accompaniment | Recorded in Bombay, April 1953 | Hindustani Shastriya Sangeet (Indian classical music) | 3:30 |
Hindustani classical music is an important component of sound of earth in all senses, so its inclusion in the above record is not a surprise. For our part, we have here a hindi film song which is a Hindustani classical song, by Mohammed Rafi Sahab. This is from the film Mrig Trishna(1975), written and composed by Shambhu Sen. This is a soothing, mental massage, critically acclaimed song. I was aware of the song and have heard it many times before today. I have also heard a great fan of Rafi Sahab, singing this song, and he was all praises for this rendition by the maestro. Obviously, he knows a great deal more about classical music than me. I had seen the song many times of TV too. So as soon as he said the mukhda before singing it, I was able to recollect even the filming of the song, and Hema Malini dancing to it. This was a few years ago. But today seeing the song again, I have also remembered reading somewhere, about the location shoot of the song. It is filmed at an actual location of some Haveli or fort is Rajasthan. The original art work and carpet and the carving in the pillars and jharokhas is visible in the hall.
Before starting this post I had checked and could not find the film Mrig Trishna (1975) in the list. But I just thought of checking it again, and now I find that 2 songs from this film are posted and this particular song is posted here.
So here we are, in the 99th year of Rafi Sahab, we are soon going to enter the 100th year of Rafi Sahab. I hope and pray, that we maintain the equilibrium as humanity and take inspiration from the personality of Rafi Sahab and his life’s principles.
Rafi Sahab, keep spreading happiness and peace to the world and beyond, even if the Voyager, has missed out on including your amazing voice. No doubt, as one of the super creations, Rafi sahab has made his contribution to this civilization and increased the ‘shobhaa’ of this ‘sansaar’.
I am posting this funny group song from the film Madhur Milan(1955), which the antithesis of Hindustani classical, which was my original idea for this post. Geeta Dutt and A. R. Ojha are giving company or having fun with Rafi sahab in the song composed by Bulo C. Rani. Raja Mehdi Ali Khan is the lyricist. Among the legendary associations, Geeta Dutt, is next to only Asha Bhonsle. Raja Mehdi Ali Khan was also part of Madan Mohan’s team for a time. While Bulo C. Rani has composed many sweet renditions by Rafi sahab in early 50’s, some of which I have posted.
So we enjoy this social comic song by this team on this birth anniversary occasion.

Today’s song is an interesting Trio from an old film Ghayal-1951.
The cast of the film was Sulochana Chaterjee, Shaikh Mukhtar, Geeta Bali, Jawahar Kaul, Ramsingh, p.Kailash, pesi Patel, Honey O’Brien, Yeshwant Dave, Rewa Shankar Marwadi and many more. There were 7 Lyricists for 11 songs of the film (one of them is a 2 part song). Likewise there were 6 singers. The M.D. was Gyan Dutt. All the singers were well known, except the singer ‘ Bhola’.
Many people think that Bhola was Bhola Shreshtha, the M.D., but it’s not true. This Bhola was Bulo C Rani,M.D. He joined the industry to be a singer. Khemchand Prakash gave him an opportunity to sing in the film Mehmaan-1942. Later, the same year,Gyan Dutt also gave him songs.Bulo C Rani sang 34 songs in 19 films – initial in his own name, and from 1944 onwards as ‘Bhola’, as he had become a Music Director himself by then, from film Moorti-1944.
Bulo C Rani was a Science graduate. In those days of early cinema, most people who joined the film line were less educated and mostly from lower middle class or poor families. Not ALL of course. There were few highly educated actors, directors, MDs etc but their number was much less. Actresses like Renuka Devi, Vanmala, Nalini Tarkhad etc. were graduates. Actors like Ashok kumar and Ranjan were graduates. Artistes like Dewan Sharar, Devika rani and Shakuntala Paranjpye had International experience, they wrote books also. Director Nanubhai Vakil and actor Surendra were BA,LL.B.
Ramchandra Thakur, Producer and Director of film Ghayal-51, was also from Elite and highly educated class. He also wrote articles in magazines – before and after his film career. Ramchandra Thakur was one such scholarly person who was a Postgraduate and a prolific writer on films in English, Hindi and Gujarati, before joining films. Ramchandra Thakur was born in Suver of Sabarkantha district in Gujarat, on 17-12-1908. He moved to Bombay when he was just 9 year old. He pursued his higher education in Bombay and emerged as a scholar of Pali language. When he gave his M.A. final exam, he wanted to become a teacher in a college, if he got First class. If not, he would join the film industry as a director. During his college years he had written many articles on films. He had translated Sound Recordist Minu Katrak’s English works in Hindi and Gujarati.
When he did not get First class, he joined Sagar Movietone, in its Marketing department. After a few months, Baburao Patel took over from him and he became an assistant director to Chimanlal Luhar for the film Dynamite-38. Next, along with Virendra Desai ( Nalini Jaywant’s first husband), he became a co-director of the film The Gramophone Singer-38. His first film, as an independent Director was the Debut film of Snehprabha Pradhan – Civil marriage-40. Then he joined Ranjit Movietone. He directed mythological, Social and Comedy films. Art Director Kanu Desai’s film Geet Govind was directed by him. Thakur directed 20 films. He also wrote the script for the popular film Baiju Bawra-52. He produced 5 films. He directed 2 Gujarati films and wrote stories and screenplays for several Gujarati films.
He was an accomplished writer. He wrote 4 novels – Amrapali, Budhidhan Birbal, Prem Diwani and Urmila. He wrote several satirical commentaries too. He wrote a detailed article on Sagar Movietone and Chimanlal Desai in Gujarati magazine ” Jee”. His last Hindi film as a director was Nawab Sirajuddaula-67, which he had produced also. He died on 31-10-1992.
I do not know about the storyline of the film Ghayal-51. One of my favourite actors – Jawahar Kaul – acted in this film. He was a very handsome fellow and had an unique style of acting. It was his bad luck that he could not prosper or become “A” grade actor, as in his period the competition was severe and there were many better actors operating then.
Jawahar Kaul was born in a Nehru family on the 27th of September in the year 1927 in the place revered as the heaven of India – Srinagar, Kashmir. When Jawahar was six days old, his grandfather’s sister adopted him, and his surname was subsequently changed to Kaul. Kaul did his Intermediate from the Punjab University and then went to the town of Rawalpindi. After spending some time there, he decided to go to Mumbai. His parents were not in favour of it and hence he convinced them that he would complete his graduation from the Pune University. He had a deep attraction for films from an early age and hence wanted to try his luck in the industry. In the 1940s, Dadar had three studios – Ranjit, Shri Sound and Supreme and hence was the epicenter of Indian cinema. Jawahar made Dadar his address.
He was always short on money as his family wasn’t aware of his venture into cinema. He often slept at the studio of Prabha Pictures. Due to his Kashmiri background – his looks, complexion, height were impressive, and he started getting work soon. Jawahar started his career doing minor roles. He used to portray supporting characters in big films. He made his debut while playing actor Kishor Sahu’s younger brother in the 1945’s ‘Veer Kunal’. In this year, he was seen in the role of ‘Humayun Mahawat’ in ‘Ek Din Ka Sultan’ which was made by Sohrab Modi. His first main lead role was in the flick ‘Khidki’ which was made in 1948. He was paired with Rehana for the same.
In Dadar, he became good friends with Radhakishan Mehra. Mehra used to live in the Lallubhai Mansion where Dada Bhagwan and Prabha Shankar Yagnik, ( brother of stunt film actor Navin Yagnik), the production managers of films used to stay too. It wasn’t long when Prabha Shankar and Kaul became good friends and started sharing their apartment. Their trio and friendship became popular in the film circle. Pyarelal Satoshi was friends with Radhakrishnan, and when he became a producer, he cast Kaul in his first movie. Kaul’s debut did average business, but the songs were a hit. Soon Kaul was seen in films like Azadi Ki Raah Par, Apni Chhaya, Kathputli, Pehli Jhalak, Laal Batti, Sahib Biwi Aur Ghulam, etc. He was a legend of the Black and White Cinema. He was a superstar in the films made in the 1960s. Throughout his career, he worked only in a few selected flicks, but he was able to efficiently enrapture the audience’s attention.
Jawahar was never happy about his career- the way it went. He had wanted it to be more successful. Anyway after his last film Zalim-1980, he left acting and joined as a Production Manager with Jwala Pictures of Sandeep Sethi. After two years he became his Secretary for the next 17 years. Meanwhile he produced a film-” Agniputra “, with Mithun Chakravarti. It took a long time to finally release in 2000. Not only was it a flop, it also gave a heavy financial burden on him. However, his only son and producer daughter Shabanam Kapoor repaid everything. He died peacefully in Andheri,Mumbai, on 15-4-2019. Till the end, he looked after his school and college ‘ Children’s welfare Centre’, nearby.
Jawahr Kaul acted in 31 films starting from a small role inGeet Govind-1947. I remember his role in my favourite film Dekh kabira Roya-1957.(Thanks to Beete Hue din Blog).
Like most artistes, the music Directors of the early cinema had a tough time in their later life. Music of their era and style was no longer saleable due to the changing tastes of the people. Newer and younger MDs had a tough competition themselves. Thus these oldies were helpless. Damodar Sharma became assistant to Laxmikant Pyarelal, Madholal Master started his business of making Puppets (His Joker’s puppet was used by Raj kapoor in his film ” Mera Naam Joker”), Vithaldas Panchotiya, Krishnarao Chonkar, Badri prasad, Rewa shankar Marwadi etc. started doing small roles in films to sustain life. B.R.Deodhar opened a Music school.
Rewashankar Marwadi had acted in today’s film Ghayal-1951. I tried very hard to get some information about Rewa Shankar Marwadi, who was an actor, lyricist, singer and also music director in the 1930s and 1940s. However I could not get anything concrete. Anyway I found a note on this multi talented artist of the early era, written by Shri Dhananjay Naniwadekar aka Nani, on the old RMIM forum, some 15 years ago and adapted by me for this article.
Some of Ranjit Movietone’s earliest talkie films had music by Ustad Jhande Khan. Next came the trio of Banne Khan, Ganga Prasad Pathak and Rewa Shankar Marwari. None of that music was ever released on 78 rpm records. From 1938-39, the great duo of Gyan Dutt and Khemchand Prakash took over the charge of Ranjit’s music, later to be joined by Bulo C Rani. It was only around 1938 that Ranjit started releasing its film music on 78-rpm records.
Rewa Shankar Marwari’s association with Ranjit Films and films produced or directed by ex-Ranjit hand Jayant Desai continued in the
1940s. While it is a pleasant surprise that imdb.com has a page for an obscure name like ‘Rewashankar Marwadi’ at all, it is not surprising
that his filmography has been put together for the site by people who are far from competent at that sort of thing. He acted in 27 films, till 1955, sang 12 songs in 9 films and gave music to 21 films from ‘Veer Babruwahan’ (1934) to ‘Matrubhoomi’ (1949). After 1949 only, he started acting in films.
Rewashankar Marwadi and Gangaprasad Pathak gave music together for Gunsundari- 1934 as well as the film Raat ki Raani-35. Rewashankar Marwadi then made a pucca pair with composer Banne Khan and this pair gave music to 12 films, as a pair. ( Barrister’s wife-35, College girl-35, Qeemati aansoo-35, Noor-e-watan-35, Chalaak chor-36, Raj Ramani-36, Dil ka daaku-36, Sipahi ki sajani-36, Matlabi Duniya-36, Lehri lala-36, Ghazi Diler-36 and Mitti ka putla-37 ). In my opinion, they should be considered the first pair of MDs as well as Trend setters and NOT Husnlal-Bhagatram. Of course the number of films the H-B team did was more ( 52), but that is because after 1935, the speed of making films increased. More films were made in the 40s and the 50s than in the 30s. Moreover many composers left for Pakistan in the late 40s, so more films for less composers were available. Numbers aside, but lack of enough knowledge about the early films and artistes has led to much injustice to the Pioneers, for sure !
Today’s song is a Trio, sung by G M Durrani, Geeta Roy and Meena Kapoor along with Chorus. The song is in 2 parts recorded on one single record-on both sides. HFGK mentions it as 2 separate songs, but today’s song is the combined version running for more than 6 minutes. Durrani’s voice was suitable for soulful songs- like Talat. However personally I feel he was better than Talat, though Talat got more popular songs than him. Durrani acted in 16 films, wrote songs for 1 film (Nazare-49), gave music to 8 films composing 48 songs and sang 305 songs in 168 films.

Today we celebrate a combined anniversary of two singers. Two singers who were contemporary, two singers who were very good friends, two singers whose voices were considered almost similar. It is the birth anniversary of Geeta Dutt (nee Roy), and the remembrance day of Meena Kapoor.
23rd November – Geeta Ji was born in the year 1930 in Idilpur village (now in Bangladesh), into a zamindar family. In early 1940s, they moved to Calcutta (now Kolkata) and then to Bombay (now Mumbai) in mid 1940s. The same date in 2017, Meena ji passed away in Kolkata, after some years of illness. She was in Delhi till 2003, the year when Anil Da (Anil Biswas) passed away, and then she moved to Kolkata.
Geeta ji started her singing career in 1945, with the film ‘Aadhaar’ under the music direction of SN Tripathi. Her last released film is ‘Anubhav’ from 1971, and then ‘Midnight’ from 1972, which remained unreleased.
Meena ji started her career in 1946. Two films with her playback singing were released that year – ‘Door Chalen’ under the music direction of KC Dey, and ‘Eight Days’ under the music direction of SD Burman. Her last singing assignment is recorded for the 1965 film ‘Chhoti Chhoti Baaten’, with music by Anil Biswas.
As I thought of writing a combined post for these two singing ladies, I tried to search for a duet sung by them. As per the Geet Kosh, I am able to locate only three duets they have sung. Two of them are already posted here on our blog. The first one is from the film ‘Aadhi Raat’ (1950) – “Main Ne Balam Se Poochhaa Miloge Kahaan”, and the second one is from the film ‘Jalte Deep’ also from 1950 – “Aayi Milan Ki Raat Karo Meethhi Meethhi Baat”. The third duet listed in Geet Kosh is from 1951 film ‘Ghaayal’. The song is “Tera Kisi Pe Aaye Dil…”. This song is not yet posted on our blog. And for good reason. This song is not yet traceable in public domain. The funny thing is that the song on the ‘palat’ (other) side of the record (GE 8739) is very much available – “Dil Toota Hua, Pal Pal Tujhe Pukaare” (singer is Meena Kapoor) and also posted on our blog. But as I started inquiring yesterday evening from my trusted circle of collector friends, all of the replied that this song is somehow not yet available.
But then today late morning, I got information about two other duet songs of this pair, which was very heartening. Just as a side, film ‘Ghaayal’ of 1951 has one other song in which the voices of these two ladies appear. However, this one is a trio song accompanied by GM Durrani. It is a long song, on both sides of the record (no. GE8740) which means it is about 6 minutes long. I was actually preparing to use this trio song for today’s post, but then I got two responses from two dear friends, both sharing information about one duet song each. Very interesting development indeed.
First I got to see a message from dear Gajendra Khanna ji (Bengaluru based) in which he shared info about another duet song. This one is from the 1948 film ‘Hip Hip Hurray’ (aka ‘Chaube ji’) and the song title is “Hum Jaan Gaye Jaan Gaye Jaan Gaye Ji”. The Geet Kosh does not list the singer names for this song. I tried to confirm this information, checking with another dear friend Zafar Bhai (based in Delhi-6), and he sent me the image of the record of this song. The reason that GK does not list the singer names is because the record itself does not carry these names. On checking back with Gajendra Ji, he shared with me the audio of the song, and said that the identification is based on the voices on the track. So we found another duet song.
And then almost immediately Zafar Bhai also responded with an additional song. This turns out to be a NFS duet, that makes it all the more rare. The fact that there are really very rare duet NFS songs (of any pair of singers), being able to locate one with these two voices, which have otherwise also not sung too many songs together, makes is rarer than rare.
I decided to go ahead with this NFS song, and dear Zafar Bhai immediately obliged by posting it on YouTube. All the additional delays that bring this post to almost 9 pm in the evening, are my doing. :D) :D)
The lyrics of this song are from the pen of Madhukar Rajasthani, an eminent poet of his time. Music is from the mind of Vedpal Verma, one of the lesser heard names in Hindi films, who has otherwise a notable portfolio of 70 songs from about a dozen films (this info is till 1980, and there may be more work done by this MD beyond 1980).
The song is a ‘bidaai’ song. A hoary tradition of this land – a song that is sung to bid farewell to a new bride as she starts her journey to a new home, a new family and a new life partner. The words are so wonderfully appropriate. My identification of the voices is that the first stanza is in the voice of Geeta ji and the second stanza is in the voice of Meena ji. I may be wrong, as I am not a good judge of voices. The record label unmistakably carries both names. In case my identification is in error, please let me know and I will make necessary changes.
In the beginning of the song there are a few lines that have been recited by an unidentified male voice. Could it be the poet himself? I cannot say.
Two very beautiful voices, and two very beautiful ladies. Good friends, but singing together only occasionally. Enjoy this very rare treat of an NFS duet song, with lots of thanks to Zafar Bhai for making my day.
Song – Jaa Ri Laadli Apne Ghar Ko (NFS) (1952) Singer – Geeta Roy (Dutt), Meena Kapoor, Lyrics – Madhukar Rajasthani, MD – Vedpal Verma
Lyrics
kaisa milan ye kaisa bichhudna
kaisa milan ye kaisa bichhudna
kaisi jag ki reet re
kaisi jag ki reet
de di bida mohe hanste hanste
de di bida mohe hanste hanste
kaise hain ye meet
goonj raha kaanon mein ab tak
wahi vidaai geet
ja ri laadli apne ghar ko
yaad hamaari karna
saath tumhaare meri duaaen
phoolo phalo khush rehna
ja ri laadli
oo oo oooo
bachpan ke sab sangi saathi
bachpan ke sab sangi saathi
bhulat naahin bhulaaye
man chhoda babul ki nagri
man chhoda babul ki nagri
tan doli mein jaaye
tan doli mein jaaye
door kahin wo le ke bansi
baar baar ye gaaye
ja ri laadli apne ghar ko
yaad hamaari karna
saath tumhaare meri duaaen
phoolo phalo khush rehna
ja ri laadli

कैसा मिलन ये कैसा बिछुड़ना
कैसा मिलन ये कैसा बिछुड़ना
कैसी जग की रीत रे
कैसी जग की रीत
दे दी बिदा मोहे हँसते हँसते
दे दी बिदा मोहे हँसते हँसते
कैसे हैं ये मीत
गूंज रहा कानों में अब तक
वही विदाई गीत
जा री लाड़ली अपने घर को
याद हमारी करना
साथ तुम्हारे मेरी दुआएं
फूलो फलो खुश रहना
जा री लाड़ली
ओ ओ ओ
बचपन के सब संगी साथी
बचपन के सब संगी साथी
भूलत नहीं भुलाए
मन छोड़ा बाबुल की नगरी
मन छोड़ा बाबुल की नगरी
तन डोली में जाये
तन डोली में जाये
दूर कहीं वो ले के बांसुरी
बार बार ये गाये
जा री लाड़ली अपने घर को
याद हमारी करना
साथ तुम्हारे मेरी दुआएं
फूलो फलो खुश रहना
जा री लाड़ली
