Chala chal chala chal gar hai andhera

“Baarood”(1960) was a Super Pictures Production. Here is what Mr Arunkumar Deshmukh, our beloved inhouse encyclopaedia, has to say about this movie:
BAROOD-1960 was a super pictures film, produced and directed by Aspy Irani.
Aspy Irani was never tired of making films on identical stories of his own films, making a few changes in the cast, Scenes, names and situations,-the basic theme remaining a constant.But his direction and pace of the film was such that he had created several admirers and a captive audience, who would see his films, whatever the name of the film. May be they got the pleasure of nostalgia of revising the earlier seen films.
I know atleast 2 fans of Aspy Irani’s films-one is Memsaab and the other is me !
BAROOD-1960 is yet again a story of a socially outcasted, low level poor soul, who is rich in his heart and deeds and his big hearted sacrificial adventures to save an innocent distraught child/girl/woman/man etc.
The story and screenplay is by C.J.Pavri and the dialogues are by Akhtar ul Iman.
In this case, Munna(Honey Irani) is an orphan, who runs away from his foster parents, who have adopted him from an orphanage run by Rekha Devi(Kumkum).
Munna is rescued by Shankar(Sheikh Mukhtar)-a kind hearted Truck Driver and both become thick friends. Later on Rekha devi discovers Munna and asks Shankar to return him to the orphanage as Shankar has no family.Meanwhile Ramu(Hiralal) a clerk in the solicitor’s(Uma Dutt) office notices the resemblance between Munna and the lost son of a Millionaire. He starts his plan to prop up Munna as the lost son and earn money from the rich man.
The film details how Shankar and Rekha devi, along with Shankar’s friends save Munna and foil the attempts of Ramu to hold the child to ransom and make unlawful money.
There are plenty of fights and drama(courtesy of Sheikh Mukhtar) and songs and dances(courtesy of Kumkum) to make the film an entertaining one.
The loyal audience who came to the theatres got what they expected from Sheikh Mukhtar and Aspy Irani. PAISA VASOOL !
Four songs from this movie have been discussed in the past. Here is the fifth song from the movie. It is sung by Rafi. Hasrat Jaipuri is the lyricist. Music is composed by Khayyam.
Only the audio of this song is available. Going by the updated excel sheet of Rafi songs, this song is picturised as a background song.
Lyrics of this song were sent to me by Nitin Shah.

Lyrics(Provided by Nitin Shah)
museebat ek khilauna hai
teri maasoom raahon mein
guzar jaa
haan guzar jaa
khelta dharti ki baahon mein
chala chal chala chal
gar hai andhera aa
chala chal chala chal
gar hai andhera
tera sahaara aa
bhagwan tera
chala chal chala chal
gar hai andhera
jag hai saagar
tu hai tinka
behta chala jaa
baandh le himmat
chhod de rona
hansta chala jaa
dhalengi yeh raaten
milega savera aa
dhalengi yeh raaten
milega savera
tera sahaara aa
bhagwan tera aa
chala chal chala chal
gar hai andhera
aandhi aaye toofaan aaye
phir bhi lade jaa
wo rakhwaala saath hai tere
aage badhe jaa
banega ujaala
yahi to andhera aa
banega ujaala
yahi to andhera
tera sahaara aa
bhagwan tera aa
chala chal chala chal
gar hai andhera
chala chal chala chal
gar hai andhera
