Ek Raat (1967) is a B/C grade film produced under the banner of East and West Movietone, Bombay, and is directed by Rajnath. The music for this film is composed by Usha Khanna. The lyrics for this film are written by three poets viz., Anjaan, Yogesh, and Jalaal Malihabaadi. The star cast is made up of Sheikh Mukhtar, Ravi Kumar, Simi, Shyama, Madan Puri, David, Helen, Lakshmichhaaya, Samson, Haroon, Bhagwan Sinha, Nazir Kashmiri, CL Shah, Bihari, Vasanti. This film was the debut vehicle for actor Ravi Kumar. The name does not sound familiar from other films, and I would request our knowledgeable readers to add more information about this actor.

The last time when I discussed songs composed by Ganesh,I had discussed almost all the Ganesh compositions that were they available. As things stand, this blog has as many as 31 songs composed by Ganesh. It may not look like much, but when one realises that Ganesh only composed 80 odd songs in his career, this figure is a lot !

Atul is aware that this particular cabaret song and dance is one of my favorites, performed by the very lithe and graceful Faryal. It contains most of the peculiarly Indian cabaret traits that make me love them so: male background dancers, a fake Sheikh or two, a Boss lurking in silhouette, and a lively band clad in frilly outfits.

This song is a quintessential Helen song, which I would personally include in the top 10 list of Helen songs, if I were assigned to nominate. 🙂
