I have posted two memorable songs from “Shart” (1954) in the past namely Na ye chaand hogaa na taare rahenge (Shart) and Dekho wo chaand chhupke kartaa hai kyaa ishaare (Shart) .

In the past, I had posted a song from a little known movie called “Nayaa Ghar” (1953). At that time I was given farmaish for two more songs of this movie. But those songs were as elusive as the movie was obscure.

After posting an untypical Madan Mohan song, here is a song that bears the hallmark of a typical Madan Mohan song. It is a ghazal, it is sung by Lata, and it is picturised on Meena Kumari !

Few people may have heard of this movie called “Taj” (1956). This movie had Pradeep Kumar and Vyjyanti Mala in lead roles. This pair had figured in the blockbuster “Naagin” (1954) and they were most likely signed up for this movie on the wake of their “Naagin” (1954) success.
