This song “ghareeb jaan ke na tum haman mita dena” from “Chhoomantar” (1956) is one song from this movie that is well known to me for the last thirty years. This song is one of those songs that I had noted down in my diary of 1970s in which I used to note down the songs that I liked those days.

Here is another song which is “new” for me. I had neither heard about this song or about this movie called “Zindagi Aur Ham” (1962). This movie had Dinesh (?), Nalini Jaywant, Chand Usmani, David, Mukri etc. The fact that I have not heard about the movie could mean that the movie was a failure at the box office.

After India became an independent nation in 1947, nation building began in the right earnest. Movies too reflected it, and many movies of that era talked about nation building, and also about the values and aspirations of the newly independent nation.

“Sailaab” (1956) is an obscure movie and so is the case with its music.
