Atulji,
Thanks for the post. I haven’t seen the movie, but there is a song in the movie “Dhaaginaa tinak dhin……” by Mukesh and Usha Mangeshkar, in which you can see this “Bandar” doing the tamasha and there is a Madaari, not sure if he is the father of this kid (Mahesh Kumar)
Video (Duet)
Video (Solo)
Audio (Full version Duet + Solo)
The audio version is bit slow, but has an xtra para in duet version.

The girls name is Jamna (Indrani Mukherjee) and she is a street dancer. She stays with her alcoholic uncle. Jamna develops an immediate liking for Badshah, inspite of knowing his profession. One day Badshah sees one of his enemies and he chases him. He follows him in a little boat in the Ganges. But the boat drowns in the flood.

Atul ji
I just found the story synopsis “Mere Lal” and by giving credit to the person who has written it, I have given the link to the synopsis also. Hope I haven`t done any mistake, by posting the synopsis of the movie written by others. The synopsis was written by DIVYA SOLGAMA and was available at GOMOLO.COM.

‘Mere Lal’ was a very sentimental film, but it flopped badly because its Hero Dev Kumar was not fit for such roles! Abhi Bhattacharya was excellent in the movie.
This song also reminds us a song from, I think, Suraiya starrer ‘Maalik’, released around 1958. That song was ‘Padhoge, likhoge to hoge nawab….’ something like that! Please enlighten / correct me!!
