I have heard this song earlier, but I did not pay much attention while doing that. And afterwards I have read lots and lots of nice things about this song. People regard it as one of the best songs that Kishore Kumar has ever sung.

“Chandni Chowk” (1954) is a movie that is forgotten by now. But appears like this movie was made in altogether different era.

“Chacha Chawdhary” (1953) was one of the earlier movies of Madan Mohan as a music director. This movie is interesting in the sense that Madan Mohan in this movie preferred Asha Bhonsle over Lata for singing female solos. All the female solos in this movie have been sung by Asha Bhonsle.

Market forces are in play everywhere, including Bollywood. And this song is a good example of that.

Here is a song from “Maa aur Mamtaa” (1970). I had never heard of this movie. Nor had I come across this song “rut bekaraar hai shaam e bahaar hai” from this movie.

I have already posted a memorable Kishore Kumar song (Mere mehboob qayamat hogi) from this movie called “Mr X in Bombay”(1964). This movie starred Kishore Kumar and Kumkum. I am not sure what the movie was like, but it seems to me that Mr X, the main character of this movie could become invisible, just [...]
