Today’s song is from the film Son of Alibaba-1955.
I would like to pay my humble respects to the unique, incomparable and extraordinary imagination of the Indian filmmakers in giving the most innovative titles to their films ! In the book of Arabian Nights there are only characters like Sindbad, Aladdin, Alibaba etc. Nowhere in the book there is a mention of their sons or daughters or other close relatives. But our Indian filmmakers have very benevolently provided them with children and thus were the films made like Aladdin ka beta-1955, Aladdin Laila-1941/55, Aladdin ki Beti-1949, Daughter of Sindbad-1958.

Today, 6th July, is the remembrance day of music director Sardul Kwaatra, who passed away this day in 2005. Four years ago, on this occasion, I have posted a detailed article on this ‘impressive and talented composer who failed to impress’ with the song “Aa Gaye Aa Gaye Aa Gaye”.

I did not know that Shaminder was a playback singer until I came across a duet song ‘ye shokh adaa mast nigaah’ from the film ‘Son Of Alibaba’ (1955) sung by him and Geeta Dutt. Curious to know about him, I checked in this blog and found that one duet song chaand sitaaron mein kaun bulaaye sung by him with Lata Mangehskar from the film ‘Pilpili Saheb’ (1954) has already been discussed. Not finding any information on him, I searched various websites but being an unknown name, he was not on Wikipedia. But I found some comments on YT from two of his relatives and a write up by a person who claims to know him personally. After reading these materials, I found that Shaminder’s journey to Hindi film industry was an interesting one if not a bizarre one who aspired to become a playback singer mainly to fulfil his obsession of singing a song with his idol Lata Mangeshkar. What a ‘khwaaish’ !

Hindi movie music of the golden era was enriched by a large number of music directors. They include not only the well known names but also those who struggled to get assignments and got to work in very few movies.

“Anpadh”(1962) had several songs sung by Lata. I was under the impression that all these songs were picturised on Mala Sinha, but that is not the case.
