Today’s song is from a Costume drama film Naqab-1955.

This was yet another film weaving a beaten-track story of the King – Queen and the evil Vazir. Initially I was quite amused with such stories and was keen to see these films. Slowly and in due course as I expanded my world, I started getting weary of such set stories. The basic plot used to be the same, only the names of places and the characters and actors used to be different. I guess, even the filmmakers got tired with these stories. In reality, the generation which enjoyed such child pleasing stories was receding in the background with the growing age and the next generation was eager to broaden its visions with different Genres of films like Comedy, Real life adventure, Religion, Love stories, Musicals, Historicals and what not !

Filmmakers who survived on the theatre-going crowds and their choices, realised the changed tastes and the Indian films turned a new leaf of films made. By the end of the 50’s and finally by the middle of the 60’s such films made a retreat and they slowly disappeared into the History pages finally. Looking back now, I remember how I enjoyed such films in my younger age. In those days, the leading stars too had no anathema to working in such costume dramas. One can easily quote names of this type of films in which great stars appeared in their early careers. They crossed this stage and the second, third and the fourth level artistes acted and sustained action/stunt costume films.

Today’s film Naqab-1955 had in its cast Madhubala, Shammi Kapoor, Asha Mathur, Ajit, Heeralal, Yashodhara Katju, Maruti (Parab) and others. Madhubala, Shammi Kapoor and Ajit graduated from these types of films in due course and became “A” grade actors in different types of films. Shammi Kapoor, who debuted in 1953 – at the age of 22 years – with the film Jeewan Jyoti, did 17 films, before the film ” Tumsa Nahin Dekha”-1957 changed his life forever – never to look back what types of films he did in his early career. He became a big star. He ruled the 60’s with musicals and comedies starring opposite top and debuting actresses, Pran typically as the Villain and Rafi as his voice amid the beautiful Kashmir background.

It was in 1955 only that he secretly married Geeta Bali, without informing his family, during the shooting of the film ” Miss Coca Cola”. Unfortunately Geeta Bali died in 1965, when he was shooting for the film ” Teesri Manzil”. The shooting was stopped, but the director Vijaya Anand kept the sets intact for 3 months – paying heavy rents. When Shammi Kapoor reported for shooting, he shot for the song ” Tumne mujhe dekha hokar meherbaan” !

Madhubala started as a child artiste and after doing 14 films, became the heroine opposite Raj Kapoor in film ” Neel Kamal”-1947, which changed her career. Ajit did 15 films before his film ” Beqasoor”-1950 became one of the most successful films of 1950. It was in this film that he changed his name from Hamid Khan to Ajit. After doing Hero and second lead films, he established himself as the most stylish and suave villain of Hindi films. As the coolest villain, he became famous for his dialogues like, Mona Darling, Smart Boy, Lilly- don’t be silly, How very interesting and Saara shehar mujhe Loyan ke naam se jaanata hai ! For many successful actors and actresses of the 60’s, Costume films were the road to their career heights.

Today’s film was directed by Lekhraj Bhakri. Here is some information on him…..

A youngster, like millions of displaced Punjabis ,crossed over to India in 1947 from Abbottabad ( Now Pakistan), when the Indian subcontinent was divided. He and his family, like hundreds of other refugee families from Punjab, were given shelter in Kingsway camp located in north Delhi.

It was by chance that the youngster named Hari Kishan Goswami (Manoj Kumar) met his distant cousin Lekh Raj Bhakri, a filmmaker, who was on a visit to Delhi. The well experienced movie maker was impressed with the personality of the lanky handsome man & inquired from him if he is interested in being an actor. The young lad, who was a fan of Dilip Kumar , readily agreed & reached Bombay. Those days Bhakri was making a film Fashion-1957, with his favourite actor Pradeep Kumar ,Mala Sinha,Chandra Shekhar,Jabeen & Kammo & the shooting was in progress . Mr Goswami was told to be in the studio , to get himself acquainted with the nitty gritty of the film making .

So Goswami started working as an assistant to director Lekhraj Bhakri- for the film Fashion-57. There was a song in the film, in the voice of Hemant Kumar, to be shot on a Beggar on the screen. On the day of shooting, the actor who was supposed to do the role of the beggar and sing this song, did not come. Lekhraj Bhakri caught Harikishen Goswami, put on the make up of the bearded beggar and made him sing this song on camera. Thus the debut of Goswami took place with Hemant Kumar’s song ! As a Beggar !!

No one from the audience could ever imagine that the person with dishevelled hairs, having a big beard , and with a song on his lips is a handsome young man of 19 years . The movie was ‘Fashion’, released in 1957 & the song was Composed & crooned by Hemant Kumar. It was the young man’s first exposure before camera. The song was to chide a wayward hero (Pradeep Kumar),who has left his wife (Mala Sinha),for another woman (Kammo) having ill intentions.The song was ” Dharti ki godh mein…” After Fashion-57, Bhakri made Sahara in 58 ,with M Rajan & Meena Kumari & Hari Kishan Goswami ( who now wanted to be called as Manoj Kumar, the name Dilip Kumar had in a film), was given a substantial role . Bhakri, true to his words, took on Manoj Kumar in his subsequent movies Panchayat, Chand & Honeymoon (1960).

Lekh Raj Bhakri directed his first film Rajpoot-51 and thereafter he regularly directed movies ,like Resham,Thokar, Dak Babu etc within a modest budget. He directed Nineteen movies during 1950 to 1962. His last film was Banarasi Thug-1962. He made most of his movies under the banner Tasviristan, owned by Kuldip Sehgal and his sibling Mulkh Raj Bhakri’s Golden movies. Mulkh Raj Bhakri, besides being a producer of Hindi/Punjabi movies ,was also a writer & lyricist . He wrote the famous song ‘Haye Chanda Gaye Pardes’ for Chakori, which is still appreciated by connoisseurs of film music. Mulkh Raj Bhakri also made Bhangra ,a super hit musical in Punjabi,which had Sunder & Nishi in lead roles.

Lekh Raj Bhakri made many family oriented movies, like Maa Beta, Tange Wali, Naya Zamana,HoneyMoon etc. At the same time ,he had no problems directing films of other genres for those who wanted to watch fantasy & Arabian Nights movies. For them he made Naqab, Alladin Laila & Nag Padmini. Later,he made a musical Muslim social ‘Shama’ which had Suraiyya & Nimmi & music was composed by Ghulam Mohammad.

Besides Manoj Kumar, Lekh Raj Bhakri introduced music director Kanu Ghosh with his film Naya Zamaan (1957 ) & Iqbal Qureishi with Panchayat (1958). He also introduced actor Vijay Dutt with Shama. Lekh Raj Bhakri hung his boots after Banarsi Thug, a hugely entertaining movie, released in 1962. He did not further attempt to make movies, as after the arrival of colour, the budget of Hindi movies was increased many fold & now it was a risky business. It did not suit the temperament of a simple soul like Bhakri Saheb. Mr Bhakri, who did not believe in showing off, always kept a low profile despite being a successful director, bade adieu to show business. Much later, he passed away on 03 March 1976 at the age of sixty years. It was a matter of time, when the era of principled film makers, who made purposeful movies with message , came to an end & proposal makers having no regards for ethical values arrived with the sole aim of earning money .( adapted from the article by shri M.N.Sardana ji, with thanks, and my notes. )

You can see one more name Maruti in the cast. Most people consider him only as a Comedian-which he was, but he was also a director. He was a comedy actor and father of Comedienne Guddi Maruti. Earlier to him there was another actor called Marutirao Pehelwan ( father of Dancer Gopi Krishna), who operated from Silent films to Talkie films till early 40’s. Although they had the same name, these actors did not cause any ” Same Name Confusion”, because they operated one after another – without overlapping their career period. However, I still found that some sites are making a mix up of their Filmography.

His full name was Marutirao Ganpatrao Parab. He was born on 12-2-1927 at Ahmednagar, near Poona. After completing his Matriculation, he came to Bombay to try his luck in film acting. His first few films like Pagli Duniya-44, and Gajre-48 were without his name in credits. He got his credits firmly from the film Albela-51. Then he featured in many many films…Footpath-53, Baap re Baap-55, Baghdad ka chor-55, Chori chori-56, Guest House-59, Opera House-61, Parasmani-63, Lutera-65, Ustad 420-69, Shor-72, Kunwara Baap-74, Don-78 etc etc. In the 60’s he mainly worked in Dara Singh films.

He acted in a total 221 films and featured in 34 songs on screen. He also directed 7 films, namely Baghi Shehzada-64, Hum sab ustad Hai-65, Killers-69, Bank Robbery-69, Mangu Dada-70, Kahin aar kahin paar-71 and Hum sab chor hain-73. His last film as an actor was Bandish – 1980. As an actor he was not much satisfied, but film direction gave him joy and satisfaction. After his last film he retired from films. However several films like karate-83 and Naya Bakra-85 got delayed releases. He died peacefully on 12-3-1981.

He had married his co-star Miss Kamal, a small time actress who worked in films like Dashehra-56, Tatar ka chor-55, Garma Garam -57, Darbar-55, Riyasat-56 etc. etc. Their daughter Guddi Maruti had better luck in films than both of them. ( Thanks to a note by Rajni kumar Pandya ji, book ‘Eena, meena deeka’ by Sanjit Narvwekar, HFGK, muVyz and my notes).

The story of the film Naqab-1955 was….

Princess Rukhsana was engaged to Prince Kamran of the neighbouring kingdom. She loved him. The Vazir loved Rukhsana very much but she did not respond. To get her, Vazir kills the king and imprisons her. Kamran comes with sister Yasmin and a few friends. Yasmin is roaming at night when she is arrested and taken to the Police station.There, Inspector Anwar falls in love. He releases her but she finds from him where Princess is kept. She tells her name as Roohi. She informs Kamran, who goes and meets Princes. Vazir comes to know this. He arrests Anwar, catches Roohi and orders Anwar to shoot Roohi. Here, Kamran frees Princess and comes to the court in disguise, with his friends.
Anwar, instead of Roohi, shoots at the Vazir. Kamran and his friends also attack the Vazir and kill him. Kamran and the Princes get married. Kamran becomes the king and Anwar is made Vazir.He marries Yasmin.

Today’s song is a qawali sung by S.D.Batish and S.Balbir, with Chorus. It is a two part song of almost 6 minutes. Enjoy the qawali.

ASAD 10th Anniversary Celebrations – 8
———————————————————————

I started to write this post, because of my fascination (or is it obsession?) about the music of this movie. Finally for the anniversary occasion, I thought, let me write about this movie, “koi toh kissi din is film ke gaane ke baare mein  likhega, main hi kyon na likh daloon???” 🙂 .Ye soch ke and also for the reason that I love the Raj Khosla type of narrative and his song picturization style.

Let me talk a little about the style of song picturization by Raj Khosla which I like very much. Remember the songs of ‘Mera Saaya’, ‘Mera Gaon Mera Desh’, ‘Chiraag’, ‘Kuchche Dhaage’, ‘Do Raaste’, ‘Main Tulsi Tere Aangan Ki’, ‘Woh Kaun Thi’, ‘Anita’, . . . I can go on and on about his style of direction and his song picturisation style. I will stop about that.

The songs of this film are written by Farooq Kaiser (06.06.1918 to 10.11.1987). He was one of the dominating forces of music in Indian Cinema during the 1950s through the 1980s. He contributed to more than 115 movies and 390 songs. His name is spelt in many different ways like Faruq Kaisar, Farooq Kaiser, Faruk Kaiser etc.

Besides being a songwriter, he worked as chief assistant director with Raj khosla in ‘Prem Kahaani’ and ‘Kuchhe Dhaage’. He also worked with Lekh Tondon in ‘Prince’ (Shammi Kapoor starrer) and ‘Lal Patthar’. He worked in Hindi movies in the capacities of lyricist, dialogue and screenplay writer, production manager, associate director, second unit director or assistant director or chief assistant director.

Today’s film ‘Naqaab’ (1989) is nothing but a modern version of Raj Khosla own potboiler ‘Woh Kaun Thi’, but in this, we have no beautiful Sadhana in double role or haunting black and white camera work or Lata ji`s haunting vocal chords or Madan Mohan`s music compositions. But in this movie we have a new name Kamaal makhdoom, as the music director. Some other movies for which he provided music are – ‘Pavitra Ganga’ (1984), ‘Bhatke Raahi’ (1984), ‘Teri Aarzoo’ (1986), and maybe more.

In ‘Naqaab’, the very musical Raj Khosla entrusted a humble music teacher Kamaal Makhdoom, rather than his favourites Laxmikant Pyarelal with the music score due to severe budgetary constraints. When she heard the songs, Asha told Khosla, ‘If you promote this music well, it will be another Umrao Jaan.’ Tragically, several (political) reasons ensured that this exquisite score never even got normal publicity; the film’s failure did the rest. Those lucky enough to have heard the music cherish “Na kisika dil mujhe chahiye”, “Naina lad gaye” (with Suresh Wadkar), and the title song as treasured memories that sound as fresh almost 30 years later.))

A brief about the music director. Kamaal Makhdoom was born in Hyderabad (India) in 1950. He learnt classical music for 5 years in Hyderabad. He came to Mumbai in 1973 and he worked as an assistant with top music directors at that time, like Sham ji Ghansham Ji and Lala Sattar for more than 10 years. After that he got first chance as an independent music director in the film ‘Pavitra Ganaga’ in 1982. In the same year he did his 2nd independent film ‘Bhatke Rahi’. After that successful year he worked in many average Hindi films but ultimately he got a big break in 1986, with Raj Khosla’s ‘Naqaab’ which had Rishi Kapoor, Farah, Amjad Khan etc. After this film, he did many Hindi movies, Tele films, Music Albums and TV serials etc.

Those days, (i.e. late 1980s – early 90`s), in a certain magazine article, I remember reading Asha Bhosle crying foul about Gulshan Kumar`s dumping her songs of Naqab, saying that the T-series had sabotaged the musical compositions of the movie. Raj Khosla who was in need of money for the release of his movie very badly, sold the musical rights of the movie to T-series. And allegedly, Gulshan Kumar purposefully did not market the songs of this movie because of Anuradha Paudhwal`s rivalry towards Mangeshkar sisters. That marketing technique sealed the fate of the music of this film. I remember Gulshan Kumar did the same thing for Shashi Kapoor`s home production ‘Ajooba’ because Laxmi-Pyaare did not used Anuradha paudhwal voice for the movie. Sad state of things, but that’s how it is.

‘Naqab’ is Raj Khosla`s last directorial venture. He tried to get his his friend Vinod Khanna for the lead role, but for some reasons, the lead role went to Rishi Kapoor. Farha emoted well and she has been photographed very beautifully. The handsome Vijayendra Ghatge played the villain`s role and Amjad Khan with his huge structure and histrionics acted well. The old timer Chand Usmani is also in the star cast. She is there in the Raj Khosla camp, from the days of Raj Khosla`s ‘Anita’ days. Bindu to whom Raj Khola gave a fresh lease of life in ‘Do Raaste’ as Neelambari, acted in a role with grey shades. Old timer Mohan Choti is there in a small role.

The main chunk of the musical compositions are rendered by Asha Bhosle and the male counterpart is the ever dependable Suresh Wadkar, one of my favourites. Actually I don`t like qawwali songs, but in this movie I liked the qawwali song sung by Majid Shola which was also picturised on him.

That brings me to the close of this post. To be frank, I am very bad about writing the things, mainly because of my lack of communication skills and I get confused regarding where to start and where to end while writing the post, And of course there is my own nagging doubt about my  English writing skills. 🙂

Finally, I want to thank Atul ji and Sudhir ji for bearing my occasional outbursts, impulsive reactions, harsh comments (sometimes I myself, find them too harsh, really). I wonder sometimes, agar main Atul ji or Sudhir ji ke jagah hota aur apni khud ki lines padh ke meri reaction kya hotaa!  But then, main apne aap ko tasalli bhi de detaa hoon ye soch ke “O.K., Atul ji and Sudhir ji apne hi hain aur mera temperament woh jaante hi honge aur blog bhi mera apna hi toh hai, mujhe woh log adjust kar lenge” 🙂 🙂 Atul ji, Sudhir ji, sunn rahe hain na aap log. . . 🙂

I present the song “Jaan e Mann, Jaan e Wafa” today, which is in the voice of Asha Bhosle. I hope you will like it.
