Hi SP,

I second Sangeetbhakt. It indeed looks Asha.

Okay SB & Viraj. I made appropriate changes to the table. Thanks for keeping me not only honest but straight as well. Cheers. -S

Thanks Swarapriya for sharing these beautiful albums. It is a treat to hear Sahir's shairi with great music.

rpnawani


RP, thanks for your note. It is the same sentiment prompted me to start this thread. Sahir was one of those poets whose creations will stand test of time and will be enjoyed for many generations to come.

Cheers,
S

Munimji (1955)

Munimji was a sort of breakaway movie. Its storyline and many scenes from the movie formed a template for many successful future movies. It was produced by Filmistan (Shashidhar Mukherjee also know as S. Mukherjee - father of actor Joy Mukherjee), the studio that was responsible for so many money spinning musicals. It was directed by Subodh Mukherjee, younger brother of Shashidhar, a first for him. Subodh always wanted to make a movie and has similar storyline ideas. Instead he ended up directing Munimji. Writing duties were handled by Nasir Hussain, a future famous producer and director himself who churned out several successful musicals to his credit. Nasir and Subodh also co-wrote the screenplay. The dialogues were written by Nasir and Qamar Jalalabadi. Interestingly, Jalalabadi who is a renowned lyricist, didn't write any songs for this movie.

Dev's portrayal in the movie was full of light-hearted fun and was just great. He was nominated in the Best Actor Filmfare Award category, but lost to Dilip Kumar (for Azaad) in apparently a very close vote. Nirupa Roy played Dev's mother and won the Best Supporting Actress Filmfare Award for her portrayal. In years, apparently, Roy was younger to Dev in real life!

Interestingly, Nasir Hussain practically took the same story idea and made three other money spinners in "Tumsa Nahin Dekha," "Dil Deke Dekho," and "Jab Pyar Kisise Hota Hai" all major musical blockbusters.

The songs of "Munimji" are just superb. I have so many favorites in this movie. The dual version of the song “Jeevan Ke Safar”, especially the version by Kishoreda is just awesome. Another one of my favorites is the trio by Geetaji, Hemantda, and Thakur, the song “Dil Ki Umangen”. An unforgettable song that is absolute fun to listen to with both Geetaji and Hemantda at their teasingly pleasing best. I read in this Forum that Thakur who is the cosinger of this song is none other than the great veteran actor Pran himself. I am not able to confirm this.

It is noteworthy that Burman Da did not have Sahir write all the songs, he wrote most of them, even though their collaborations in many of the previous movies enjoyed phenomenal success. The writing duties for this film were split between Sahir and Shailendra.

I am uploading these songs in back-to-back two posts. Here are the details of the songs in the first post and the songs themselves ...

Concluding Songs from "Munimji (1955)" ...

Here are the rest of the songs from this beautiful Burmanda album. I am also including here a special version of the song "Jeevan Ke Safar" with an introduction by Jagjit Singh. This is taken from the album, "Legends: S.D. Burman - The Ageless All Rounder (CD 1)".

Here are these memorably melodious beauties ...

Thanks for the confirmation, Faraaj. I am still not able to comprehend why the album uses the name as Thakur instead of the real name. Cheers. -S

Thanks for the song Viraj. Yes, the film was from 1956. It was my mistake. Since no harm will be done, I will leave it that way unless someone vehemently objects to it.

Cheers,
