('Comment of Mr Hem Jain 'Collector' of Classic Film Music : New Theater's StreetSinger 1938 had such a great storyline that its commercial potential for dramas and films was unlimited.Charlie Chaplin made "Limelight" in 1952 and Hrishikesh Mukherjee made Abhiman in 1973 with Amitabh Bachchan & Jaya Bhaduri with similar roles as Saigal & Kanan Bala.
Saigal
& Kanan Devi sang as many as 5 Duets in StreetSinger which are Nos.40 to 44
in Saigals 110 known Hindi Film Song list. These Duets were never issued on
Discs as "Duets"because Saigal and Kanan Devi were having life long
contracts with two different Record companies namely Hindustan Records &
Megaphone Records respectively. All these 5 songs were issued as Kanan Devi
solos by Megaphone on either sides of Disc Nos JNG_1081 & JNG-1091 plus one
side of JNG_1073)
