Today’s song is from a family drama social film- Ghar ki Laaj-1941.

The film was produced and directed by V.M.Vyas, for his own banner- Sunshine Pictures, Bombay.The music was by an old-timer, Annasaheb Mainkar, but I find that in this film, he tried to adapt to the changing styles of the film music of the times !. The cast of the film was Shanta Hublikar, Nazir Ahmed, Jagdish Sethi ( in the credits, his B.A. is written prominently), Kalyani, Kaushalya, Majid, Daya devi (mother of actress Kaushalya, in real life), Hadi etc.

Entertaining Sales Pitch Songs – 3

Aha,

lailaa ki ungliyaan hain
majnoo ki pasliyaan hain
do do paise mein le lo babu
naram taazi kakdiyaan hain

I remember this jingle from childhood.  Occasionally used to hear it from the roadside hawkers, and once I even heard it in a radio play on Vividh Bharti.  Then many years later, I encountered this song also.  I used to wonder, whether the song came first or this jingle came first – which is based on which.  As I prepare this post, just casually I googled it, and found references to Lucknow and Agra where fresh vegetable vendors are known to use this jingle.  So maybe this is more of a folk tradition, converted into a film song later on.  Just like “Jumkha Gira Re Bareilly Ke Bazaar Mein“.  😉

When I was a youngster in my teens, I was under the impression that old songs meant boring songs, which were mostly like Ghazal, sad songs etc. But it is only much later that I realised that some wonderful light hearted songs too were created those days. I have already posted many of them in this blog.
