Today’s song is from an almost 90 year old film, Manzil-1936.
For a long time, I was searching for a song from this film, but none were available. Finally, I wrote to Shri Syed Jafer Shah ji and enquired if he has any song of this film, other than those already posted here. Promptly, he sent me today’s song- no.7 as per HFGK list. HFGK showed the singer’s name as Harimati, but the song sent by Jafer Bhai was sung by K.C.Dey. I pointed out this to him. He sent me the photo of the record No. 6764, which was tallying with the no. in HFGK. The film name was correct and the singer’s name was K.C.Dey. Obviously the song was correct. It seems that Harimati sang it in the film, but the record was in the voice of K.C.Dey. Or the HFGK had made a mistake in the singer’s name. Whatever it is, the song was correct as per the record number and details on it. So, no problem. Then our friend Sadanand ji Kamath uploaded it for me. Thanks to Jafer Bhai and Kamath ji.

Today’s song is from the film Maaya-1936.
The film was made by New Theatres, Calcutta, which was a leading filmmaking studio in India. The film was directed by P.C.Barua. The lyricist was Asghar Hussain Shor and the music directors were R.C.Boral and Pankaj Mullick. There were only 6 songs in this film, whereas the average number of songs in the period 1931 to 1940 was 9 songs/film. A total of 931 films were made in this decade, with an average of 9.3 films/yr. Total 8247 songs were in these films. Incidentally the lowest average of songs was 4.6 songs/film in the period 2011-2020 ( as per the statistics provided by Shri Girdharilal Vishwakarma ji in RMIM in January 2022.) I find that the number of songs in Hindi films made in Bengal were less compared to films made at other centres. This was apart from melody and popularity resting with Calcutta made films, on an All India Basis for the same period.

On this date ten years ago (23 March 2013), five songs from five different movies were covered in the blog. Here are the details:-
| Post No | Song Title | Name of the movie | Remarks |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7738 | Maan na kar ab sajni | Aandhi (1940) | 3 songs covered out of 12 by now |
| 7739 | Rotee aankhon mein teri yaad liye jaati hoon | Nargis (1946) | Movie YIPPEED by now |

Today’s song is from the film Door Chalen-1946.
Since the time Talkie films arrived in India in the form of Aalam Ara-1931, the enthusiastic film industry, with a pushover from the silent era to the Talkie era, was busy in discovering itself. It was improving in every field as the years passed by. In the first 5-6 years the industry was desperately trying to be free from the clutches of stage music, drama style acting and contents of the films made.

Today’s song is from the film Devadasi-1945.
The custom of Devdasi has been in India since the 6th Century. Devdasi means- a female artiste dedicated to the worship and service of God in Temples or a Deity for life. She is said to be married to God. (sounds similar to Nuns in Christian Churches, who are also supposed to be married to God). These Devdasis learned the art of dance and music. Initially their status in the society was very high during the period from the 6th century to 13th century. Devdasis used to be quite rich too, due to large donations and gifts from the kings and the Royalties. However, later on Devdasis were used for personal purposes by the Nobles and the kings and their status became worse than prostitutes. They became poor and dependent on their patrons. They bore children too. Their daughters became traditionally Devdasis again.

Today’s song is from a film, which is not only a rare but also an obscure film, about which not much is known. The film is Mera Gaon-1942.
1942 was an important year in the Independence struggle of our country. The historical ” Quit India ” (चले जाव) movement was launched by Gandhiji. He had also appealed to Indians to march towards the villages, where the real India lay, according to his philosophy. Due to unemployment and frequent dry spells in the countryside, the farmers started an influx to the cities leaving their farms. His appeal was towards such people to go back to their villages.
