When I watched this song, the first thing that occured to me was that this scene, if not the entire movie, was definitely inspired from the Sanskrit novel called “Rajtarangini” written by the famous Sanskrit scholar Bilhan. In that story, a music tutor is employed to teach music to the princess of a state. Afraid that the two may feel attracted to each other if they come face to face, the two are separated from each other by a curtain. The princess is told that the music tutor is ugly and the music totor is told that the princess is blind.

I have been listening to this song for over three decades and all these days I was under the impression that it must be a song sung in a mela by two females. Yesterday I watched the picturisation of this song for the first time. Wow ! What picturisation !

In India, most couples have arranged marriages, but you could not realise that by watching Bollywood movies, where every hero and his sidekick seemed to fall in love and sing romantic songs.

It is a totally forgotten song from a totally forgotten movie called ‘Agra Road” (1957). But when I saw the picturisation, I was so impressed with the lady. Who is this pretty lady ? It is Shakeela, I gather.

Few people have heard the name of the movie and few people have heard this song. But this song “aao aao jaane jahaan” quickly grows up upon its listeners. I listened to this song from “Gomti Ke Kinnare” (1972) yesterday for the first time. During the first hearing, I wondered what the fuss was all about, but after listeneing to it a second time, I was hooked.
