When the music is by Ganesh, one can be assured of a very lilting and melodious fare. ‘Anjaam’, a B grade film from 1968, has got a treasure of some excellent grade A music. Four wonderful songs from this film are already represented on this blog. Here is the fifth song from this film, another wonderful memory from the radio years.

So any songs that I want to discuss will necessarily will have to be a song where Utpal Dutt is present, without doing any lip syncing.
