Today’s song is an Aarti of Bhagwan Shankar, from the film Vikramaditya-1945. Our friend Avinash Abhang (Scrapwala) ji has given me the song link and the detailed Lyrics of this Aarti. He has taken a lot of effort to meticulously write down the lyrics as it contained 3 voices of singers and chorus. In addition, it also has some difficult words which had to be noted carefully. I thank him profusely as he very kindly sent this to me, knowing that I am a Shiv- Bhakta. May Lord Shiv ji Bless him !

Vikramaditya (1945) is a Hindi historical drama directed by Vijay Bhatt under the Prakash Pictures banner. The film stars legendary actor Prithviraj Kapoor in the title role of King Vikramaditya of Avanti, Prem Adib as the court poet Mahakavi Kalidas, and Ratnamala as Princess Shrilekha, along with other artistes like Ranjana, Zillobai, Bhagwandas and Baburao Pendharkar etc etc. All the 9 songs were written by Ramesh Gupta and the music was by the in-house Music Director of Prakash Pictures- Shankar Rao Vyas. he film was directed by Vijay Bhatt.

Hullo Atuldom

‘Bahubali’ (2015) was followed by ‘Bahubali- The Conclusion’ (2017). It was re-released in 2025, to celebrate 10 years of ‘Bahubali’, with the two parts combined and was called ‘Bahubali- The Epic’.

‘KGF – Chapter 1’ released in 2018; ‘KGF – Chapter 2’ came in 2022 and apparently a sequel to ‘Chapter 2’ titled ‘KGF – Chapter 3’ that was teased into the second film is in developmental stage.

The above two films along with ‘Pushpa’ and its sequels are all made in South India and were released simultaneously across India, dubbed into all possible Indian languages and were also well-accepted by the audiences. 

(I have not seen the above films, don’t feel like seeing them too.)

#the Decade of Fifties – 1951 – 1960 #

The song being covered in the article is a nice melodious bhajan from the movie ‘Bhakt Dhruv-1957’.

As many as seven Hindi films have been made on the story of Dhruv Kumar or Bhakt Dhruv. These movies are ‘Dhruv Charitra-1933’, ‘Dhruv Kumar-1938’, ‘Bhakta Dhruva-1947’, ‘Bhakta Dhruv-1957’ and ‘Bhakta Dhruv Kumar-1964’ and ‘Baalak Dhruva-1974’. There was one movie in 1983 which was a dubbed movie titled as ‘Bhakta Dhruv-1983’.

Three of the abovementioned movies are already represented in the blog. They are ‘Bhakta Dhruv-1947’, ‘Bhakta Dhruv-1957’ and ‘Bhakta Dhruv Kumar-1964’. The two movies of 1930s are not represented because the songs of these movies are perhaps not available. Movies from the seventies and the eighties could make their debuts in the blog in near future.

“Bhakt Dhruv-1957” was directed by Gunjaal for ‘Ashok Pictures’. It was produced by R.L. Arora and this movie was passed by Censor Board on 18.10.1957. The cast of this movie had Sulochana, Shahu Modak, Jeevan, Vinod Kumar, Bimla, Sundar, Gulaab, Shammi, Ramesh Kapoor, Amar, Kesho and others. Mala Sinha, Trilok Kapoor, Anant Kumar, Badri Prasad, Ramesh Sinha and Kanchanmala had guest appearance in this movie. This movie has seven songs as per details given below.
