Today’s song is from the film Bade Bhaiya-1951.
From the title it seemed to be a family drama, but in reality this was a love story of 2 brothers, with the background of a Carnival and its various shows. This is what I call a misleading title !
The film was made by Super Pictures, Bombay, owned by the film’s Director Aspy Irani. The Parsi community of Bombay made a lot of contribution to the early cinema. Remember that the very first Talkie film made in India was by Ardeshir Irani, a Parsi who owned a premier studio and a filmmaking organisation -The Imperial Film company, Bombay. Over a period, the Parsis found other interests and their participation in filmmaking reduced. However, some of the great and memorable actors and directors like Sohrab Modi, the Billimorea brothers, Pearl Padamsee, Boman Irani etc kept the Persian Presence in Hindi films going.

‘Aawaaraa Baadal’ (1964) was produced by Kailash Kapur and J P Sehgal under the banner of Amarjyot Films. There is some confusion as to who had directed the film – Kedar Kapoor or B R Ishara. Film’s poster has the name of Kedar Kapoor as director while IMDb and a few other websites mention the name of B R Ishara as the director. Film’s credit title does not mention the name of Kidar Kapoor but it mentions ‘dialogues written and directed by B R Ishara’. There may be some story behind this confusion. The cast included Ajit, Ragini, Indira Billi, Ramayan Tiwari, Jagdish Sethi, Leela Mishra, Niranjan Sharma, Mridula, Iftikhar, Dhumal, Indira Bansal, Tuntun, Sujata, Helen etc.

The film was made by Super Pictures. produced and directed by the Banner owner- Aspy Irani, who was the husband of actress Husn Banu, daughter of yesteryear actress Shareefa. Aspy Irani was Aspindiar Hormusji Irani, an expert famous for handling Action films and C grade movies. From 1936 to 1986 he directed 55 films. Some of his known films were Johnny Walker’s Naya Paisa, Qaidi No. 911, Shabnam, Baadal etc. One day he left his home for work on 23-11-1986 and simply disappeared into thin air ! Rigorous searching by the Bombay Police did not succeed and he was declared a “missing person” forever !
