But there are other songs in it that are created with the same amount of love and care and those songs are also wonderful to listen to, if we only care to listen to them. These days I am digging these songs out and I am finding that these forgotten songs are gems.

Here is a typically O P Nayyarish romantic song from 1960s. This song is from “Mere Sanam” (1965) and listening to this song, one may guess that the song is from a Shammi Kapoorish movie.
