  • Saraswati Devi

    v3 v4  
    1111instruments also feature prominently in her film 
    1212compositions. Associated mainly with [[Bombay 
    13 Talkies]]. In her first film she refused to appear as a singer, dubbing her elder sister manek instead. Her major achievement was probably to persuade star [[Devika Rani]] to sing. Several of her best-known songs, rendered in film by amateur singers [[Ashok Kumar]] and Rani, succeeded because of their nursery rhyme simplicity (e.g. Main ban ka panchi in [[Achhut Kanya]], Chali re meri nao in [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jhoola|Jhoola]]). Worked briefly with [[Sohrab Modi]] after leaving Bombay Talkies. Also scored [[Jaswantlal]]’s hit musical Amrapali. Collaborated at times with Ramchandra Pal on music.
