Deewaana mujhko log kahen
Posted on: December 16, 2012
“Deewaana” (1967) was an Anupam Chitra Production. It was produced and directed by Mahesh Kaul. The movie had Raj Kapoor, Saira Banu, Lalita Pawar, Kamal Kapoor, Ravindra Kapoor, Hiralal, Ulhas, Salim Khan, Kanhaiyalal, Leela Mishra, Jankidas, Nasreen, Pal Sharma, Paul Mahendra, Bazid Khan, Brahm Bhardwaj, Tiwari etc in it.
This song is the introduction song where Raj Kapoor, playing the tongawala gets Saira Bano as his passenger and he lip syncs this song during the journey.
The picturisation is quite brief. To savour the song, one needs to listen to the full audio version.
Mukesh is the singer. Hasrat Jaipuri wrote the lyrics. Music is composed by Shankar Jaikishan.
Yes, this introduction song from “Deewaana” (1967) is very much a “how come this song was not discussed earlier” song. My reasons for not discussing this song are the same old ones- viz I thought taht this song aws already discussed in the past but I was wrong etc etc. 🙂
Better late than never. Here is this song finally making its way here.
Lyrics of this song were sent to me by Atif M.

Lyrics(Provided by Atif M)
deewaana mujhko log kahen
main samjhoon jag hai deewana
main samjhoon jag hai deewaana
deewaana mujhko log kahen
main samjhoon jag hai deewaana
ho o
main samjhoon jag hai deewaana
deewaana mujhko log kahen
hansta hai koyi soorat pe meri
hansta hai koyi haalat pe meri
hansta hai koyi soorat pe meri
hansta hai koyi haalat pe meri
chhota hi sahi
par dil hai bada
main jhoomta paimaana
deewaana mujhko log kahen
main samjhoon jag hai deewaana
ho o
main samjhun jag hai deewaana
deewana mujhko log kahen
main insaan seedha saada hoon
eemaan ka main shehzaada hoon
main insaan seedha saada hoon
eemaan ka main shehzaada hoon
hai kaun bura maalik jaane
main pyaar ka parwaana
deewaana mujhko log kahen
main samjhoon jag hai deewaana
ho o
main samjhoon jag hai deewaana
deewaana mujhko log kahen
main yaar ki khaatir lut jaaun
aur pyaar ki khaatir mit jaaun
main yaar ki khaatir lut jaaun
aur pyaar ki khaatir mit jaaun
chalta hi rahoon har manzil par
anjaam se begaana
deewaana mujhko log kahen
main samjhoon jag hai deewaana
ho main samjhoon jag hai deewaana
deewaana mujhko log kahen
