Today’s song is from an unknown film -Ankh Micholi-1942. Unknown does not mean it is not mentioned anywhere, but it only means that it was not known to most people. It is slightly lesser than ” less known’ films.
In 1940, after the film Kumkum the dancer, starring Sadhona Bose, the establishment of Sagar movietone was wound up and it was merged lock,stock and barrel with National Studios. After 3 films, this also closed down and Chimanlal Desai started his own Amar Pictures. As per Biren Kothari’s book- Sagar Movietone, after making just 6 movies, Amar also closed down. Out of these 6 films, except the film Adab Arz-1943, the other 5 films just came and went, without much noise.
Film Aankh Micholi-1942 was directed by a veteran and a spillover from the Silent era- R.S.Chaudhari. Music was by Gyan Datt and the Lyricists were Pt.Indra, Satyakam and Shatir Lucknowi. The cast of the film included Nalini Jaywant, Satish, Sulochana, Jillo, Hadi, Protima Devi and others.

Today’s song is from an obscure film called Paigham aka Message-1941.
The film was made by Chimanlal Desai’s banner Amar Pictures, Bombay. This Chimanlal Desai was the same person who had established Sagar movietone, along with Dr. Ambadas patel. In its time, Sagar was a famous studio, making several hit films. Chimanlal lost Sagar due this habit of gambling. The film was directed by his son Surendra Desai. Amar Pictures was named after the son of Surendra desai-Amar. Just being the son of a producer does not make one a good director. Surendra was an average director. His elder brother Virendra Desai was a good director, but he spoiled his own as well as Nalini Jaywant’s life, when he married the 16 year old Nalini. He was already married and had 2 children also.
Film Paigham 1941 had music by Gyan Dutt. The cast of the film included Sadhana Bose, Surendra, Anil Kumar, Protima Devi, Ansari, Sulochana Chaterjee and others. There were 11 songs in the film, written by Pt. Indra, Safdar Aah and Balam. There were 3 solos of Surendra and 3 duets with Sadhana Bose, 2 solos of Sadhana, 1 solo of Bulo C.Rani and 2 duets of Bulo C.Rani.

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.
