Taak jhoom naacho nashe mein choor

Posted by: Atul on: April 4, 2011

“Kaala Sonaa” (1975) to my mind is inspired from “Westerns”. In this movie, Feroz Khan plays Clint Eastwood.

I have mentioned it earlier that some of the finest songs created by O P Nayyar were in movies produced by Johny Walker.
