Just now I listened to this song and I was amazed at how modern this song sounds even today, even though it is a song from as far back as 1942.

This article is written by Sudhir, a fellow enthusiast of Hindi movie music and a regular contributor to this blog.
The 1965 movie Do Dil is a standard fare lost-and-found prince heir to the kingdom throne, palace intrigues, and struggles to get control of the kingdom. It was a time in the Hindi movies that on just seeing the name Pran in the credits of a movie, one could predict the main plot of the movie in a jiffy. Almost a similar situation in this movie. The heir to a certain kingdom goes missing as a child, and is presumed dead. Pran, a relative of some sort to the main lineage, is the most eligible person to succeed and ascend the throne. Then out of the blue, Biswajeet appears, and claims to be the long lost child and the actual heir to the throne. The storyline beyond that moves on a very predictable course.
