Today’s song is from the comedy film Hangama-1952.
1952 was an year which was going through a lean period for Hindi films. Increased costs of Film production, escalating rates of stars and music Directors, establishment of Star System in place of earlier Studio System, increasing taxes, decreasing number of Cinema Halls etc caused a worry in the film industry. Financiers with Black money were making films – in 1952 the number of Hindi films made went up to 105 from 97 of 1951, but dropped again to 98 in 1953. Most films were of lower quality. Because of superior music there were some great films too, but the situation was grave nevertheless.

Filmistan Studio was formed by Shashadhar Mukherjee, Ashok Kumar, Rai Bahadur Chunnilal and Gyan Mukherjee in 1943 after they left Bombay Talkies due to differences with Devika Rani. She had taken over the charge of the Bombay Talkies after the death of her husband, Himanshu Rai in 1940. ‘Chal Chal Re Naujawaan’ (1944) was Filmistan’s maiden film. Thereafter, Filmistan had produced box office successful films such as ‘Do Bhai’ (1947), ‘Shaheed’ (1948), ‘Shabnam’ (1949). Samaadhi’ (1950) and ‘Sargam’(1950). After the death of Rai Bahadur Chunnilal in 1950, Tolaram Jalan took over the Filmistan while Shashadhar Mukherjee continued as its Creative Head. Post-1950, Filmistan produced successful films like ‘Anarkali’ (1953), ‘Naastik’ (1954), ‘Naagin’ (1954), ‘Munimji’ (1955), ‘Tumsa Nahi Dekha’ (1957), ‘Paying Guest’ (1957) etc.

‘Senapati’ (1961) was produced by Jai Gopal Mohla under the banner Mohla Films and was directed by Kedar Kapoor. The star cast included Prithviraj Kapoor, Nalini Jaywant, Amarnath, Veena, K N Singh, Tiwari, Helen, Durga Khote, Chaman Puri, Heera Sawant, Rajan Kapoor, Janakidas, Jeevan Kala, Madhumati etc. I heard the name of the producer, J G Mohla for the first time. Before this film, he had produced ’Insaan’ (1952) and ‘Ehsaan’ (1954). After ‘Senapati’ (1961), he seems to have vanished from Hindi films. But when I saw the name of Madan Mohla as the Associate Producer of this film, it gave me a hint of some connection with J G Mohla. Madan Mohla is a familiar name because of some of his box office hit films like ‘Sharafat’ (1972), ‘Raja Jani’ (1974), ‘Dus Numbri’ (1976) etc. The online search revealed that Madan Mohla was the son of Jai Gopal Mohla (J G Mohla). Incidentally, Madan Mohla was also the assistant director under director Kedar Kapoor for this film.

Today’s song is from the film Sipahiya-1949.
Many film artists – actors, singers, directors etc – have written their autobiography. If you take a look at all these, the females have more autobios than the males, for reasons not known to me. In my last few years of activity in the arena of old films, I have collected many books and have received many books as ‘Gifts’ from the authors. Among these, there are many autobios, including the autobio of C Ramchandra, music director of today’s film Sipahiya-1949.

This is my 1500th article on this Blog !
It’s difficult for me to believe that in a span of 148 months or 4440 days I wrote 1500 articles on one Blog alone. Articles written on other Blogs and sites are not included in this. Those are about 200. Add to it my 9 books already published (5 Solo and 4 co-authored). Over 500 film reviews and comments on this and other Blogs which are about 700 +. Being a methodical person, I have kept records of all these. Learning ABCD of work on Computers at the age of 70 years, I could do all this at this age is the Greatest Blessing of the Almighty. Thanks to Him !
