I have not posted a song composed by Ganesh in this blog for quite some time. The songs composed by Ganesh, though of high quality are very difficult to find.

Here is a song which sounds like it belongs to a Shammi Kapoor movie. And indeed it has almost all the ingredients of a Shammi Kapoor movie except the great man himself. The movie is “Ek Musaafir Ek Haseena” (1962) which appeared on the scene almost in the same era as “Junglee”. This movie has Joy Mukherji and Sadhana in lead roles.
