(Madhubala) Raj Hath (1956)

Sohrab Modi made himself a name for making mostly historic or period dramas on a grand scale. His first film was "Khoon Ka Khoon" made in 1935. It was based on Shakespeare's famous play "Hamlet". "Raj Hath" is a period drama. One of the distinguishing feature of the movie is its beautiful music by the irrepressible Shankar & Jaikishan. There are plenty of songs in this film, 11 to be exact. All of them are beautiful to listen to.

I will upload these songs in two back-to-back posts. Here are the details of the songs from the first post and the songs themselves ...

Thanks for this upload. I recently re-ran the DVD of this movie. This remains one of Madhubala's top movies. Of course to me, all Madhubala movies are A-One!

Although Nadiya Kinare Phiroon Pyaasi is included in the ACD of Raj Hath, and was probably originally recorded for Raj Hath, it was not used in the film. It was finally picturised on Jayshree Gadkar a few years later in Do G unde, made by the same producers. The rest of the songs of Do G unde were composed by Ghulam Mohammed, though.

(Nargis) Sheesha (1952)

Here are songs from this nice album by Ghulam Mohammad Saab. Most of these songs are by the courtesy of the Forum members. Some came from CD collections. Overall quality is adequate except that the source of the songs seems like is from a slow spinning gramophone player (not at the right speed) ...

Songs of "Bewafa (1952)"

This is another movie starring Nargis and Raj Kapoor. Incidentally, Talat Mahmood was the voice of Raj in this movie also. This is the third movie released in 1952 that had Talat lending his voice to Raj (other two being “Anhonee” and “Ashiana”).

Now for the details of the songs and the songs themselves …

SP,

There was some discussion about the singer of 'aajaa na mere dilruba'. The singer is most probably Sandhya Mukherjee.

Thank you for the info Exon. Should I go ahead and make this change like you have suggested? Or, should I wait for someone else to autheticate this? -S

(Madhubala) Shirin Farhad (1956)

For the few films he worked on, the maestro Mohiner Saab provided some unforgettable music. The case in point is this album. It has every song very beautifully composed. I am uploading all of the songs. Most of these songs came from different CD collections. Others were contributed by the Forum members. Thank you.

I will upload all songs from the film in the first post. In the second post, I am uploading some extended versions. Even though most songs are of very good quality, you may find on occasion a skip here and a skip there. But this in no way diminishes the beauty of these songs or the overall quality of this album.

(Madhubala) Naqab (1955)

This movie starred Madhubala & Shammi. Madhubala was at the height of her romance with Dilip Kumar during this time. In a recent journal interview, Shammi fondly recalls those times and adds that when they were shooting this film in Pune at the Prabhat Studios, Dilip used to come from Mumbai to visit with Madhubala on her sets. He recalls another occasion when Dilip was shooting for Gemini's "Insaaniyat" in Madras. It was Eid time and Dilip took a break from shooting to flew in to Mumbai particularly to spend the festive time with Madhubala.

Pt. Govind Ramji who composed the music for this film had only few films to his credit but does a great job here. I am uploading five songs here but it appears like I may be missing several songs. It could be as many as seven more. If indeed this is true and if you happen to have any of the missing songs, please kindly share with rest of us. Thank you.

Here are the songs I have ...
