In the early 1940s, New Theatres (NT) was going through some lean period as some of its films like ‘Meenakshi’ (1942), ‘Saugand’ (1942), ‘Kashinath’ (1943), ‘Waapas’ (1943) etc could not garner box office success. During this period, there were exodus of some of the artists and technicians from NT to Bombay. In this background, NT produced ‘Udayer Pathe’ (1944) in Bengali with some new artists, new technicians and also with a new director, Bimal Roy who was the Cinematographer and the Editor with NT. The film became a big box office success, recouping to some extent the lost glory of NT.

THE VIBRANT 40s (Episode No. 13)
————————————-
Today Mumbai (erstwhile BOMBAY) boasts of being the only place where Hindi films are made, but in the initial stages of Film-making, it was not so. There were other centres too, which made Hindi films like Calcutta, Poona, Kolhapur, Madras, Hyderabad, Bangalore, Lahore and some odd towns as well.

I am presenting a song ‘tumne mujhse prem jataa kar’ from the film WAAPAS (1943). At first, the voice of the singer in the song appears to be that of Jagmohan Sursagar. In fact, one of the uploaders of the audio clip has mentioned Jagmohan Sursagar’s name as the singer of this song. Actually, the song is sung by the singer-actor Asit Baran. I am not surprised with this slip up on the part of the uploader. I for once also felt that the voice was that of Jagmohan Sursagar. The music composition of the song also gives an impression that it is a non-filmy song. The song is written in a ghazal format by Munshi Zakir Hussain which is set to music by R C Boral.
