This song is a long pending farmaish for this blog. This song is “Haseenon ki adaayen”, aka “haan ye bholi soorat waale” from “Chaar Din” (1949). This song has been giving me lots of troubles. For one, this song has not one , but two parts. And secondly, each of the part is supposed to have three singers each and as per credits, only one singer is repeated in the other part of the song. But I can clearly notice that these parts have more than three singers singing in them. Moreover, more than one common voice can be heard in both the versions.

“Nayaa Kaanoon” (1965) was a movie starring an over the hill Bharat Bhushan with Vyjyanti Mala. This movie was a box office disasater.
As a result, the songs of this movie suffered. So much so that few people are aware of these songs. It is a pity because these songs are so nice to listen to, and they would have done well had the movie done better.

This evergreen song from “Jab Pyaar Kisi Se Hota Hai”(1961) wears multiple hats. The song is a multiple version song in the sense that this song is sung independently by two singer, viz Rafi in one version and Lata in another version. The song can be called the title song as well as theme song. The male version of the song is rail song as well.
