“Sharaabi” (1964) is a movie that had some great songs in it, but the movie itself turned out to be a damp squib and the songs of this movie suffered as a result. With time, the songs of ‘Sharaabi” (1964) have lived on, but these songs would have done much better during its earlier days, had the movie fared better at the box office.

Listening to this song always has the effect of taking me back to 1960s, when things were much more simple and simplified. A song like this had a magical effect on listeners and they felt the urge to be drawn towards the movie halls screening this movie. I am sure this and other songs from this movie were the main reasons why people thronged to watch this movie. Watching Sadhana could be the second (distant) reason and watching Rajendra Kapoor may be the third (even more distant) reason. One only needs to delete all the songs and make people watch this movie, and let us see whether Jubilee Kumar would have really been able to carry the movie as he was reputed to be.
