Today’s song is from a Non-Descript film-Mazaq-43. I call it a Non Descript film because no information is available on this film anywhere. As the film was released on 31-12-1943, its review was expected in the 1944 January or February issue, but as 1944 issues of Film India are not available in Internet Archive, it is not possible to know about this film. I did not see any film advertisement of Mazaq in any issue of 1943. Either I missed it or it was not there. The gist is, we do not know anything about who wrote the film story or what was the story, how it was received by the public etc.

Forgotten Melodies of the 1940s – 25

The box office success of the first muslim social film ‘Qaidi’ (1940) produced under the banner of Film Corporation of India (Calcutta), led to the production of a spate of muslim social films like ‘Najma’ (1943), ‘Ismat’ (1944), ‘Phool’ (1945), ‘Pehli Nazar’ (1945), ‘Zeenat’ (1945), ‘Nek Parvin’ (1946) and many more. GHAZAL (1945) was a muslim social film with a light comedy touch, produced and directed by Zahoor Raja under the banner of Raja Movietone.
