A very special song for Mohammad Rafi fans. This is what is real effortless singing. He makes it sound as if it is his ‘baayen haathh ka khel’. And it was his forte to seamlessly go from one mood to another, go from light, comic mode to qawwali, sounding quite serious and melodious and switch to western style, all in the space of less than a minute. If what I say does not make sense, than one can only listen to this song and confirm. What range and what smoothness of voice and diction. And adding the punjabi tadka too in a spoken line towards the end of the song.

The lyricist, the music director and the singer are the trinity who are involved in the making of film songs, making their own contributions in popularising the song. However, right from the early days of talkies films 1931, the lyricists have remained in the shadows of music directors and singers.

Even All India Radio and Radio Ceylon (Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation) rarely used to announce the name of the lyricists while airing Hindi film songs.
