O P Nayyar was at the peak of his musical and professional prowess in 1950s. By 1960s, he was on the decline. But even then, he continued to create some sublime music till late into 1960s. I in fact feel that his compositions are arguably of better quality, even if they did not become as popular as his compositions of 1950s.

“Manchali” (1971) is a movie that is indelibly etched in my mind mainly because of its title song O manchali kahan chali(Manchali)(1973). This song appeared to me to be playing in Binaca geetlmala all the time, though this song did not figure in the final. This movie also had the wonderful song Gham ka fasaana ban gaya achcha(Manchali)(1973) in it. The naughty song Tan man dhan sab hai tera(Manchali)(1973) is also in this movie.

The title of the movie “Bikhhre Moti” (1951) gives enough statutory warning that this movie is a melancholic movie with melancholic songs. Indeed, this movie which had Jayant, Jeevan, Kamini Kaushal, Neelam, Nigar Sultana, Ranjana etc in it have just that kind of songs in it.
