The Voice of Mukesh #54
– – – – – – – – – – – – – –
As we are getting close to the end of list for the Mukesh songs for 1950, the songs are increasingly becoming difficult to trace. Today’s song I have been able to locate in my own collection, and am posting it online, for the first time today. The film is an obscure one, titled ‘Raaj Mukut’. The film is a production from Mohan Pictures, Bombay and is directed by Nanubhai Vakil. The film has an impressive star cast that includes Nimmi, Veena, Jairaj, Ram Singh, Sapru, Mishra, Gulab, Ramesh Sinha, Ramesh Thakur, Jankidas, Baby Tabassum.

As per IMDb site, the earliest film with the title ‘Laila Majnu’ was released in 1922 followed by another film with the same title in 1927. After the advent of talkies, ‘Laila Majnu’ was released in 1931 (I & II), 1945, 1953 and 1976. There were films with the title ‘Laila Majnu’ made in Telugu and Malayalam as well which were released in 1949 and 1962 respectively. Today I am presenting a song in the qawwali format from the film LAILA MAJNU (1945). An abridged version of the film with lots of cuts is available on YT.

Divas of Hindi film music (5)
———————————–
Song no. 5 is one more duet, which is too good a song to not be known. This is by Shamshad Begum and Mohammed Rafi. I mean songs like this when writing that there are many better and rarer songs which could have been part of the Rafi series. I missed out on including this one.

The ‘W’ song is a Rafi solo from the film ‘Ghar ki Izzat'(1948). From the sound of it, it does not sound like a 40’s song at all. Rather it feels like a 50’s song. The lyricist is Ishwar Chandra Kapoor and Pandit Govindram is the music director. Though the first hit solo by Rafi sahab is said to be from the film ‘Dulaari'(1949), Suhaani raat dhal chuki, but there are by some amazingly melodious songs like Keh ke bhi na aaye tum, Bahut maayoos hokar koochha e qaatil se ham nikle, Bahut mukhtsar hai hamaari kahaani, Ab na been bajaa, Mohabbat mein khudaaya aise guzre, Ae dil neend na aayee tamaam raat from before 1949. In these songs too he is standing out as the clearest and most mellifluous voice among singers of the time. Even more so in those two songs from the film ‘Amar Raj” (1946) posted in the blog. With songs like Ye zindagi ke mele and Ik dil ke tukde hazaar huye also in 1948, which are my personal favourites, Rafi sahab had already announced his arrival, even though we were not born to hear this announcement 🙂 🙂 .

Recently I watched GHAR KI IZZAT (1948) on YT. The film was produced under the banner of Murli Movietone and directed by Ram Daryani. The star cast included Dilip Kumar and Mumtaz Shanti in the lead role with Gope, Manorama, Dixit, Jeewan, Gulab, Suleman etc in the supporting roles. The melodramatic story of the film reminded me of some of the Hindi films produced from the South in the 50s and 60s.
