In this blog, I often talk of quality, class, originality etc while discussing songs. But there are occasions when all these admirable qualities take the back seat and we like to listen to songs that hardly seem to possess such high ideals. These are songs that are purely time pass low brow songs, shamelessly plagiarised, with lyrics that are no great shakes and may be even in poor taste, and with picturisation to match. And surprisingly, there are such songs who manage to become chart busters.

Here is an out and out tapori song that became an out and out evergreen classic song, and an iconic song if ever there was one.

Kishore Kumar as an actor-cum Singer had started to figure in movies in 1950s. In many movies, he was even the hero.
New Delhi (1956) was one such movie. One thing that I epecially find appealing is the fact that one gets to see about Delhi of 1950s in this movie, and that Delhi is so different from the present day Delhi that we know.
