The film was made by the Ranjit Movietone, Bombay, which was known to offer a wide variety of Genres in their films. Family drama, Love story, Comedy, Tragedy Historical, Mythological Stunt and many others , except probably Jungle films like Tarzan etc.

From the beginning, Ranjit was in the big league, having a large spacious studio with all amenities and a battalion of A-1 grade artists in various fields like acting, direction and the technical side. It was called a ” Cine Factory”, because, on all the 8 shooting floors of its studio, continuous shooting went on. Not only their own films, but outside producers also took the floors on rent and made their films. All the material like cameras, helpers, editing and sound facilities, mini theatre and all that was required to make a film was available in Ranjit, including actors, actresses, Lyricists, M.D.s, Directors and what not !

Today’s song is from a social film “Pyaas”-1941.

Films with the title “Pyaas” were made in 1941, 1968 and 1982. Interestingly, there were 45 films having the word ‘ Pyas/Pyasa/Pyasi’ in its title as the first word. I always advocate that when a film is mentioned, for whatever reason, it is absolutely necessary that its year is also mentioned along with the title of the film. In Hindi films, it is a common phenomenon that many films with similar titles are produced in different years. I have quoted many times that a film titled ” Insaf” was produced 7 times in different years. Like the ‘ Same Name Confusion ‘ of film actors, a film itself can be a victim of ‘Same Title Confusion’ if the specific year is not mentioned.

Today’s song is from the film Pyas-1941.

The year 1941 was an year which would start the realignment, improvement, trials, changes and introduction of new waves in acting, singing, direction and the story contents. Many ‘Carried Forward’ baggage from the silent film era were to be discarded- like Music based on stage and dramas in Parsi, Gujarathi and Marathi languages. New Genres were to be opened up to make this entertainment more acceptable. Additionally the second world war, started in 1939 end period, had an unpredictable duration and the film industry would have to cope up with the British Government’s expectations from the film industry.

Today’s song is from the film Aaj ka Hindustan-1940.

The second world war had already begun in 1939 and the British Government had promulgated many restrictions on the Indian people like rationing of food items. rationing of petrol and other essential items. As far as the Film industry was concerned, the Raw Film used to be imported as it was not yet made in India. The Government started a quota system for the filmmakers, based on a formula of films made in an year on average and many related parameters. This created problems for individual filmmakers who made films at random and had no studio of their own.

One can easily get philosophical too, besides the celebratory aspect. So okay, one more year, one more Holi celebration, one more set of songs posted. . .  And the wheel of life continues to roll. . .

Into the fourteenth year of continuous daily publication, since July 2008. And we have gone past on the way, fourteen Holi celebrations. In the earlier post today, Peevesie’s Mom ji has written that we have 66 Holi songs already posted here. She refers to one of my earlier posts, in which I have written that the Hindi cinema has an intense liking for this festival. And that we still have quite a number of Holi celebration songs that are awaiting discovery out there, and also, waiting to take their place on this blog.
