(Nargis) Mother India (1957)

“Mother India (1957)” when released was a blockbuster. It broke all box office records and remained a champion for the next three years until "Mughal-E-Azam" was released in 1960. This movie is one of the monumental achievements in Indian film history. Even though Mehboob was the architect of this masterpiece, the person who made it amazingly realistic with an unmatched and absolutely brilliant and rustic performance was the great actress Nargis. It is one of those gut wrenching performances that will be remembered for ages to come. This was even more significant if one considers that Nargis hitherto portrayed mostly urban and sophisticated lady roles (Mehboob's "Andaz (1950)" is an example). It was a stroke of genius by Mehboob Saab that he saw what Nargisji can do. He should know. It was Mehboobji who introduced Nargis in his movie "Taqdeer" in 1943.

This movie was a remake of Mehboob's earlier movie "Aurat (1940)". That starred Sardar Akhtar in the mother's role. Surendra (Rajendra's role) and Yaqoob (Sunil Dutt's role) played sons. Arun (father of actor Govinda) played Raaj Kumar's role. Kanhaiyalal played the same role in both the movies. It had some magnificent music by Anil Biswas. Many critics are of the opinion that this original version with its rustic backdrop was much more engrossing than Mehboob Khan's later version.

“Mother India” made stars out of Sunil Dutt, Rajendra Kumar, and Raaj Kumar. That is quite an impressive list. It won all kinds of laurels for Nargisji and many other significant awards too. She won the best actress award for her performance at the Karlovy Vary film festival. The movie fetched Filmfare awards for the Best Picture (Mehboob Khan), the Best Director (Mehboob Khan), the Best Actress (Nargis), the Best Cinematography (Faredoon Irani), and the Best Sound (R. Kaushik). It also has the distinction of being selected as the first Indian movie for Oscars in the Best Foreign film category. It lost by one vote to that famous Italian film by Fredrico Fellini "Nights of Cabiria" on the third count. Not for another 31 years, another Indian film will be nominated for Oscars. That movie was "Salaam Bombay (1988)".

Khan Saab was described by many as Cecille B. DeMille (the maker of "The Ten Commandments") of India. In fact, after watching "Mother India" DeMille contacted Mehboobji to congratulate him for the magnificent job he did.

Nargis broke away with Raj Kapoor during the shooting of this movie. Sunil Dutt, who plays her son in the movie, displaying real life heroics, rescued her from the burning fire when the climax was being shot. In the process Dutt himself suffered several burns but Nargis was safe. This bravura act was enough to tilt her heart for Nargis towards Dutt. They got romantically involved after that incident and within a year got married. Incidentally, Mehboobji considered offering the role Sunil Dutt played to the Hollywood actor Sabu. However it didn't pan out and the role eventually went to Dutt.

This movie was banned in Turkey because Mehboob's banner has hammer and sickle in it. Because this represents communist and social leanings, Turkey didn't allow the movie to be screened in that country. When this movie was sent for Oscar competition, Mehboobji made sure that his banner's symbol was cut out.

Naushadji's music didn't win any awards but it was a major part of the success enjoyed by the movie. Here Naushadji uses very few and simple instruments but very effectively. Almost all songs are catchy and stayed popular for a long time.

The movie was made in Telugu in 1971 as "Bangaru Thalli" and in Tamil in 1978 as "Punya Bhoomi".

I will upload songs from an original soundtrack album in back-to-back two posts. Here is the first set of songs...

(Madhubala) Phagun (1958)

This is one beautiful album from the master OP. There are 12 songs in this musical with Asha starring in all of them. There are seven solos and five duets with Rafi Saab. But what is beautiful about this album is that all songs are chart-busters, some more than others, but all were very popular.

I am uploading these songs in three back-to-back posts. First two posts contain songs from the album. Almost all of these are from an original soundtrack album. The third post contains extended versions of some of the songs. These all are from a DVD.

Here are the songs in the first post...

Yogi, your request are sometimes very daunting. I am sorry to disappoint you once more but the fact is that I don't have a single song from any of these albums. Hopefully someone can come forward and help us out.

Cheers,
S
