Yesterday I had posted a lovely duet song from the film ‘O Jaanewaale’ (1948). With reference to certain online resources, Mahesh ji wanted to check whether the music director behind this song is Pankaj Mullick. I was surprised to see this query.

The name of the film is correct, but the remaining details are picked from a Geet Kosh entry that is one after this film. Hence the confusion. This is a careless error in transcription from the printed source to the web based page displays.
