Today’s song is from a very old film of the first decade of the Talkie films – Village Girl aka Gram Kanya-1936.

There were 3 films with the same title. The first one was made as a Silent film, with Sulochana in the lead opposite Raja Sandow. The film was made by Imperial Film Company, Bombay and it was directed by Mohan Bhavnani. He later married actress Enakshi Rama Rau in 1931. The second film was in 1936, today’s film and the third was made in 1945 with singer and actress Nurjahan. It had excellent songs composed by Music Director Shyam Sunder. It was for this film that Mohd. Rafi recorded his first Hindi song in 1944. He sang in the Chorus and the lead singer was G.M.Durrani. However, when the times changed, Rafi was the lead singer and Durrani in the Chorus for a song in K.Asif’s film Laila Majnu !

Today’s song is from the film Village Girl aka Gram Kanya-1936.

Nine years later, Ramnik Productions made another film with the same title in 1945 with the famous singer Noorjehan singing under the baton of Melody maker music director Shyamsundar. So, when the name Village Girl is mentioned, one’s mind thinks only of the 1945 film of Noorjehan- Village Girl aka Gaon ki Gori-45.

In the last few days, I have been looking for songs composed by Shyam Sundar, the forgotten music director of 40s and early 50s. Whenever I think of him, the name of another forgotten music director Sajjad Hussain creeps in my mind. If Shyam Sundar was called a genius music director, Sajjad Hussain was called an original music director by none other than Anil Biswas, the ‘Bheeshm Pitaamah’ of Hindi film music. Despite these superlatives against their names, Shyam Sundar and Sajjad Hussain composed music for only 20 and 17 Hindi films respectively in their careers. This works out to on an average 2 films per year for Shyam Sunder (1943 to 1953) and less than 1 film per year for Sajjad Hussain ( 1944 to 1977). One common reason attributed for their musical output not being commensurate with their talents was that both were short tempered and perfectionist to the extent that they were uncompromising which was not to the liking of producers/directors of the films.
