This song is from a very old movie called “Dil Ki Rani” (1947). Most people involved in the creation of this song are now household names, but at the time of creation of this song, they were newcomers. In fact the names by which they were then known are not the names by which they are known today.

“Aayi Milan Ki Bela” (1964) is a movie that to my mind was carried on the back of its lilting music. I do not think that people would have gone to watch this movie for Rajendra Kumar’s histrionics, if the movie did not have its awesome music.

“Insaaniyat” (1955) was the first (and last) time that Dilip Kumar and Dev Anand were cast together in one movie. Dev Anand was (mis)cast as a dacoit wearing a mustache who gets reformed when a girl (Bina Rai) slaps him. 😉
