   WOW! Thanks Edu Productions! I adore Ashok Kumar, and so will definitely have to watch Achhut Kanya, tonight.

   Thanks for these movies.I wonder whether we’ll see films from ‘friends video’ (with better quality of course)here in the future…….,….
   BTW,Isn’t there a danger of some of these videos from youtube being taken down?

     Tom knows better than anybody the insidious workings of YT…so who knows? But most of the films we have put up there are old enough to qualify as “Public Domain” and nobody in the vcd/dvd industry seems to value them much! But—I’d download them while I can ;)

         Yes, it’s truly terrible. This version is much better, although the subtitles are embedded so you can’t turn them off. But they aren’t terribly intrusive, and they are literate anyway!

   Mem saab ji,
   Thank you very much for this new initiative.
   It is a wellknown fact-unfortunately,ofcourse- that the Indian film industry simply does not bother about recording its own golden history.They have neither the will nor the common sense that their foolish inaction may destroy the history.
   It is thanks to the efforts of few self sacrificing,magnanimous-hearted individuals like you,Surjit singh ji,Herminder singhji and some others that some salvation efforts are being done.
   We are highly indebted to you and such great souls as mentioned and also to those who have been helping them in this efforts,and are not mentioned here by name.
   I personally thank you and wish you all the strength,strong will and help-solicited/unsolicited-from like minded people.
   Thanks once again.
   -Arunkumar Deshmukh

   Hi Greta – I tried downloading the mumtaaz songs DVD that Tom has made and you had a post on it. I could only download 3 or 4 files. The website was freezing when i tried downloading one of the files. I will send you an email later with the precise file name. In the mean time many many thanks to Team Edu for contributing their time in making these better quality DVDs and sharing these rare gems with us.

     Let’s just hope it’s a temporary glitch and it goes back to normal soon. If you tell me the RAR number that’s freezing up, I can try to see if the same happens for me.

      Hi Surjitji: Tom mentioned to me this morning that he was going to have to recreate the rar10 file. He may need to recreate all of them to keep the film intact, but he is aware of the issue. Thanks for your patience! :)

      Without watching it I would bet that the band is Terence’s father-in-law’s, called Fats Benny. I’ll look at the song later to make sure and update this if it isn’t :)

    Can I make a request for a movie here?

    I’ve been searching for “Soorat Aur Seerat” (1962) for quite sometime now. If you can upload it here, nothing like it.

    And thanks for these wonderful contributions.

    Since I just did not have the time I did not know wht a wonderful job you and your team are doing here. I had been receiving updates about Edu Productions but just never had the time to check it out. By the way here is a bit of trivia with respect to Sautela Bhai featuring Guru Dutt and Pronoti Ghosh. Pronoti was Abhi Bhattacharya’s wife but from what I had seen they may have lived together for a short while, I never saw them together.

      I’ll check, Khalid. I’ll have to download the whole thing so it may take some time. And if I also find them to be corrupted I’ll have to create a new set or RARs for upload. I’ll let you know here and thanks for bringing it to my attention.

      Hello Khalid,

      Even though the 2 RAR files say they are corrupt or other things, and that you can’t download them, they are not corrupt and I downloaded them with no trouble at all. I didn’t log in so I was being treated the same as anyone wanting the files, and both files were ‘OK’d’ by the SVF file I included. I downloaded all the RAR files and converted them to an ISO ready to burn to disc. If you can actually download the files, you shouldn’t have any further trouble making the DVD. If you can’t download them let me know and I’ll upload them somewhere else.

      I hope you got the rest already because more are showing as corrupt now, even though they aren’t. Anyway, I sent RARs numbered 2 and 16 here:

    Hello Tom this is just a suggestion please don’t be upset
    This web page Memsaab story is a great source for Hindi Cinema,however you should
    just keep articles and songs from old classic films only.

    You should upload the DVD’s on youtube to make it easier for downloading.

    Regards,

      YouTube reencodes everything they receive, and very poorly at that. For best quality, downloading the DVD is the only way. Yes, it’s inconvenient because we have to deal with MediaFire. If you know of a server we could use to upload and download, then please let memsaab know.

      Besides, at the moment I can’t upload complete films, but as you may know if you check other films on this page, many of the films can be seen on YouTube and I hope to make this recent batch available soon.

      Shikast, for example, is available on YouTube. I hope you got the RAR files for the film so you can put together your DVD. I apologize for the trouble you had, but I’m at the mercy of MediaFire.

    Do you have any rare Pran films on tape you can send to us so we can work on them, Shreya?

    You shouldn’t even need an account with MediaFire to download the DVDs. Get the Instructions.pdf in each link and read it first, if you haven’t done this before.
