Minerva Movietone is the renowned flagship company that was launched and nurtured by the great Sohrab Modi. He has given such powerful historical epics to the Indian cinema as Pukar, Sikandar, Prithvi Vallabh, Jhansi Ki Rani, and many other great creations like Mirza Ghalib, Nausehrvan-e-Adil, Kundan, Jailor and Raaj Hatth. His films carry a message of strong commitment to social and national issues. A whole generation’s image of Indian history and Indian society is based on his films. Not all of his movies were commercial successes, but each of them has an indelible imprint of Sohrab Modi’s uncompromising quality and classic cinema.

All those who are into Hindi movies are told that the romantic song in Hindi movie consists of the hero and heroine singing this song running around trees. Now, I have been a veteran movie watcher (and these days a veteran songs watcher), and I have watched thousands of romantic songs but I failed to locate even one song where the lead duo are shown running around trees.

I became aware of this movie called “Magroor” (1950) thanks to its review by Memsaab. This is a delightful movie, and it is worth watching even for someone like me who cannot normally sit through the length of an entire Hindi movie.
