Some days back, I had posted the first song from the film ‘Dark Street’ (1961), first on this blog that is. The song is ‘Itne Badey Jahaan Mein, Apna Bhi Koi Hota’ . It was a farmaish from Prakash ji that was pending for some time. In that write up, I had written that the film has some more wonderful songs, and had promised I would be posting more songs from this film. So here is the next song from this film. This is a gem of a duet rendered by Manna Dey and Suman Kalyanpur. The lyrics for this film are penned by Indeevar and Gulshan Baawra. The YouTube post identifies the lyricist as Gulshan Baawra.
