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.

I have mentioned it many a timers that the golden era of Hindi movie music had great music coming from everywhere. Not only well known movies with well known composers, even C grade movies with lesser known composers were creating great music those days.
