‘Main Hoon Alladin’ (1965) was produced by K N Sippy and was directed by Mohmmed Hussain. The cast included Ajit, Saeeda Khan, Madan Puri, Maruti, David, Amar, Jagirdar, Sham Kumar, Ratnamala, Mumtaz Begum, Munshi Munaka, Mulchand, Khalil, Nazir Kashmiri, Habib and others. The film was based on ‘Arabian Nights’ stories and belongs to ‘costume and fantasy’ genre.

The film is available in the VCR format. Though the film is in colour, the quality of both video and audio is not up to the mark. There appears to be some deletion of scenes at a few places as the story does not give a feel of a smooth changeover. As it is, the story of the film itself appears to be an amalgam of sub-plots. The first part mostly covers the character around Alladin and his love interest, Salma while the second part mostly gives the impression of a repeat of the fairytales of ‘Alladin and the Wonderful Lamp’. Still, the film is interesting to watch and all the songs are melodious.

Greetings and Happy Birthday wishes to Usha Khanna ji.

Born this day in 1941, she is all of 81 years old today. With a reign lasting from 1959 to 2003, she may be the most prolific and accomplished lady music director in the Hindi film industry. In the early decades of Hindi cinema, we have been earlier introduced to lady music directors viz., Bibbo, Jaddan Bai and Saraswati Rane. Then after a gap of maybe a decade, the teenaged Usha Khanna (she was 18 years when ‘Dil Deke Dekho’ was released in 1959) made her debut.
