In the decades of 30s and 40s, some of the female singers made it to Hindi films as actors thanks to their ability to sing well. It would appear that in those days, it was more of the singing ability than the acting skills which was the deciding factors for the film producers to pick up the female actors.

All other detailed introductions and discussion on collections and singers and songs, happened later. The request for the song, the confirmation and the promise to send it, happened first. And the next day, the song was sitting in my mailbox.
