Today’s song is from a Remake film from the South – Mangala-1950.
The film was produced by the famous Gemini Pictures, Madras. It was directed by its owner S.S.Vasan. It had music by a team of 3 MDs namely, M.D.Parthasarathy (1 song), Balkrishna Kalla (10 songs), E. Shankar Sastry (3 songs) and 1 song jointly composed by kalla and Sastry. It was the style of Vasan to appoint Partasarathy as a Supervisor for the other MDs, so he did only 1 song to justify his being in the team. All songs were written by Pt. Indra. The cast of the film included Ranjan, Bhaumathy, Agha, David, Badri prasad, Surya prabha, B.S.Kalla and many others. Today’s song is the film’s seventh song to be discussed here.

Today’s song is from a re-made costume film from the South – Nishan-1949.
Besides being a Musical films’ year, 1949 was also an year when the South Indian filmmakers, especially S.S.Vasan, became active after the film Chandralekha-1948 became a successful one and brought in huge profits. It became an attraction for the filmmakers in the South. They understood that the Hindi film market was many times bigger than the Southern film market and that it was possible to capture a part of it with their south made Hindi films.
Initially, in the early era, Bombay was the biggest centre for film making. When the Talkie films started, other smaller centres in those times, like Lahore and the South, woke up. For Lahore, language was not a problem and so there was a traffic between Lahore and Bombay film people for work and technology. Thus few centres for film production prospered in Lahore-like Pancholi and Shorey etc.

Today’s song is from a Remake film from the South- Sansar-1951.
The film was made by S.S.Vasan for his own banner Gemini Pictures, Madras. It was also directed by him. There were 3 MDs – M.D.Parthasarathy, E. Shankar Sastri and B.S.Kalla. All the songs were composed jointly by Shankar and Kalla. As per Vasan’s system, Parthasarathy was in the team as a Supervisor.
The cast was a mixed one. The leading pair Pushpavalli and M.K.Radha and majority of other artists were from the original south film. A few artists were from Hindi films like Gulab, Mohana Cabral, Meera, Agha , David, Casshyap and Anil Kumar were taken to give the film a Hindi touch.

The song in this post is from an eighty-four year old movie ‘Shobha-1942’. Music for this movie was composed by Vasant Desai. When I saw that only one song from this movie have been posted on this blog so far, it piqued my interest to look for other songs from this movie. The other reason is the composer i.e. Vasant Desai. I love his music and there are many songs composed by him which I like very much. So, today I am presenting the second song from this movie ‘Shobha-1942’.
This movie ‘Shobha-1942’ was directed by Kumarsen Samarth for ‘Wadia Movietone, Bombay’. It was a ‘social movie’. The cast of this movie had Shobhna Samarth, Shahu Modak, Kusum Deshpande, Karan Deewan, Sulochana Chatterjee, Vimal Sardesai, David, Jaal Khambhata, Putlibai, Master Chhotu and others.
