Today’s song is from a comedy film Chand Tara-1945.
1945 was the year when the devastating II World War ended and the film industry heaved a sigh of relief. Many irksome regulations were relaxed. There was no force now to make Propaganda films for war, no shortage of Raw Film and plenty of Finance available through black money, generated during the war times.

I have discussed songs from “Insaaf” (1956) and “Insaaf” (1966) in the past. It appears that a movie of this title was released at every 10 years inerval those days, seeing that there was a movie with this title in 1946 too. 🙂

That helped ordinary folks to identify with and connect with the music of this music. The result was unprecedented. The producer of this movie earned more money through the music rights than through the screening of the movie.

“Rattan” (1944) was a movie that was musically a major milestone for Hindi movie music. The music of this movie served as a major trendsetter. The music of this movie was based on folk music, as against classical music. This ensured that movie goers, who were exposed to such music in their day to day life, were able to identify with this kind of music better. And just how well did the public identify with the music ! The music of this movie became super duper hit. Naushad became a rage, and other music directors too jumped on the bandwagon of folk music based songs.
