        Song: He Chandrachud Shulpaane Maheshwar

        Film:   Yatrik (1952)
        Music:  Pankaj Mullick
        Lyrics: Which Shiv stuti is this ?
        Singer: Pankaj Mullick
        *ing:   ?

On Maha Shiv Raatri, here is one of the best Shiv stutis found in
Hindi  films  (besides  one  Mahakaal  stuti  by  Manna  De under
Shankarrao Vyas). The effect, Pankaj-da creates in his sweet  and
'pahadi'  voice excellent. His voice sounds like ringing bells of
temple. Great composition, equally great delivery.

This film is also known for it's two bhajans  sung  by  Dhananjay
Bhattacharya.   Both  are very good. He possesses a voice similar
to the person who is known as much  as  gurudev  Rabindranath  in
Bengal! Those two bhajans are

        Tu Dhhudhhataa Hai Jisko,  Wo  Tera  Saanwara  Salona....
and
        Ghanshyam Sumar, Sukhdhaam? Sumar, Hari Naam ....

One of the last treat by Bengal's famous production house -- that
probably  has  now  entered  into folk lores -- New Theatres. Was
Kasturi (1954) also by the same company, probably their last ?
