Today’s song is from the movie ‘Shareef Daaku-1960’. This movie is making its debut on the blog today. It seems to be an obscure movie of its time.

One big advantage of the internet era is that sharing of resources has become easy. It has enabled music lovers to share music from obscure movies that would have remained out of reach of most music lovers if there was no internet. Songs from old movies that were considered very rare songs and even lost songs have become available with time for the listening pleasure of music lovers. One cannot thank the uploaders of such songs enough. Music lovers will remain grateful for their generosity in sharing such rare musical gems online.
