When one listens to old Bollywood songs, then one tends to form an idea about the actor on whom the song must have been picturised. If the movie has a song sung by say Rafi, then one expects it to be sung by the hero of the movie.
But I find that this assumption often turns out to be incorrect. I have found that in many cases Rafi would sing for more than one actor in the same movie. Thus he would sing for the hero, as well as for other actors. Now with the benefit of hindsight, one may find this a bit pre posterous, but this “one voice fits all” philosophy worked in those days.
O P Nayyar was one music director who would often the use the voice of Rafi for more than one actors in the same movie. He in fact once made Rafi sing for Kishore Kumar too. O P Nayyar was a big name in those days, so he could get his way when it came to getting singers of his choice to sing for him. Someone who made it big without needing to use the voice of Lata even once, he obviusly had something special in him.
Here is a song from C I D (1956). This song in fact is one of the better known songs from this movie. That is saying something because every song from this movie is well known even today.
This song is a duet, sung by Rafi and Shamshad Begam. All these days I thought that the song must have been picturised on Dev Anand and Shakeela, the lead actors of the movie, but it turns out that I was wrong. The lead actors are there in the picturisation, but this song is picturised on some bit actors. I am not familiar with the names of these bit actors. Can any learned reader throw some light on who they could be ?
PS-This song in fact has two versions. In addition to the duet sung by Shamshad Begam and Rafi, there is another version of the song where the voice of Asha Bhonsle too joins Shamshad Begam and Rafi.
The song is written by Majrooh Sultanpuri who wrote all but one songs of this movie. The one song that he did not write was written by Jaan Nissar Akhtar.

I just love this song.
Another of those songs where everything about it is perfect.
Voices, tune, picturisation, music, lyrics.
I saw this movie a few years ago – and liked it quite a bit.
And, like you say, it is loaded with terrific songs.

I just love this song, Atul! As Raja has said, everything about this song is just perfect! I also saw this movie just recently and it was a good movie, unlike many others with terrific songs and a not-so-terrific story.
Thanks again!

Welcome Atul-ji…
Another good movie by Raj Khosala with excellent song is missing from the blog. It is relatively new (released in 1978) and it was full with excellent songs, like:
Yeh Khidki Jo Band Rahti
Chaap Tilak Sab Chhini Re
Saiyan Rooth Gaye
And, title song.
I am referring to “Main Tulsi Tere Aangan Ki”. Please post it when you get a chance.
