Today’s song is from the film Jungle Princess-1942.
From the very first decade of Talkie films, a new Genre of Hindi films started in India and that was ” Jungle Films’. Animals like Elephants, Lions and Tigers were no novelty in India, like the western world. In fact, till our Independence, India was known as a country of Elephants, Lions and Tigers. When India was not well known in the world, people in the western countries thought that Elephants, Lions, and Tigers, along with Snakes etc roam about on Indian roads freely !

Today’s song is from a stunt film Jungle Princess-1942.
This was a film with Tarzan’s story. The only difference here was that the ‘Tarzan’ was a GIRL ! The story behind this film is interesting.

Blog 10-Year Challenge (2013-2023) – Song No. 29
————————————————————————————–
On this date ten years back viz on 1 March 2013, five songs from five different movies (plus one NFS) were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-
| Blog post number | Song | Movie (Year) | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7579 | Pitu maatu sahaayak swaami sakha | Mukesh NFS (1950) | Non Film song |
| 7580 | Naya naya chaand hai jee | Khuda Ka Banda (1957) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
| 7581 | Jawaani chaand salona | Saudaamini(1950) | 6 songs covered out of 9 by now |
| 7582 | Jo koi isko peeve | Jungle Princess (1942) | 5 songs covered out of 11 by now |
| 7583 | Na mukhda mod ke jaao | Chhoti Si Mulaaqaat(1967) | Movie YIPPEED by now |
| 7583 | Honthon pe geet jaage | Manpasand (1950) | 8 songs covered out of 9 by now |
We observe that two movies (out of five) whose songs were covered on this date ten years ago (on 1 March 2013) have since been YIPPEED in the blog. That leaves us with three movies that are unYIPPEED from that date and are therefore eligible for Blog Ten Year CHallenge today (1 march 2023).

“Jungle Princess” (1942) was a Wadia Movietone Production. This movie had Nadia playing a female version of Tarzan. Unlike Tarzan, who gets raised by monkeys, here Nadia (playing Mala) is raised by Lions, no less. :). She has two lion cubs as her companions at childhood and then all three grow up. Watching a grown up Nadia flanked by two grown up lions is a great sight to behold. Our beloved Memsaab has written a wonderful review of this movie here and I keep revisiting this page every time I have to discuss a song from this movie.
