Today’s song is from the film Pukar-1939.
The film was made by Minerva Movietone, Bombay. It was directed by the owner of the banner, Sohrab Modi himself. The lyricist was Syed Amir Hyder Kamaal Amrohi or simply Kamaal Amrohi, who became famous as a producer, director and a poet in later years. One of the points of his fame was that he had married Meena kumari. His surname was actually Naqvi which he never used and opted for highlighting his home town Amroha. he was also a screenplay writer, a Dialogue and storywriter. His famous films were Mahal-1949 and Pakeezah-1972. Meena Kumari- his 3rd wife died soon after the film Pakeezah was made. They had already separated in 1964 after 12 years of married life.

“Pukaar” is a title that appears five times on the blog’s ‘LIST OF SONGS MOVIEWISE’. The title has been used in movies released in 1939, 1983 & 2000; there have been two unreleased films with this title who’s years have been given as 1970 & 1971. Meer Sahab, R. D. Burman & A. R. Rahman were the music director for the 1939, 1983 & 2000 released ‘Pukaar’ (don’t know if there is a plural possible for the word ‘Pukaar’). Naushad & Ejaz Ashok were the music directors of the unreleased ‘Pukaar’. All the films with the title ‘Pukaar’ that are on the blog are only one or two songs old. (Here I would like to mention that I am speaking of the films posted & I don’t know if there are any other films with the title ‘Pukaar’ yet to appear on the blog).

Back to writing after a gap of 3 weeks. Lovely three weeks. Spent among the hills of North- East India and South India. Must thank my nephew for insisting that I accompany them. If the Himalayas and its snow-clad peaks are a heavenly sight so are the mountain ranges of the Nilgiris in the south – the common feature being acres of tea gardens. For the second weekend outing to the Nilgiris, I hold my son and niece responsible.

“Pukaar” (1939) made by Sohrab Modi is regarded as a landmark movie in the history of Hindi movies. I as a pre teen kid was never impreessed by such talk of old movies being landmak movies. I never watched this movie nor bothered to listen to its songs. And now, this movie as well as its songs have become too rare to find.

When one talks of “Pukaar”, one means Sohrab Modi’s historical movie of 1939. But another movie of this name was released in 1983 which had Amitabh Bachchan, Zeenat Aman and Randhir Kapoor in lead roles.
