Recently , while discussing a mujra song composed by R D Burman, I made this observation that R D Burman had composed very few songs of this genre.
Now I have been given a list of lots and lots of mujra songs compositions of R D Burman by Prakashchandra. In fact he sent me the lyrics of a mujra song from the debut movie of R D Burman. Now I am suitably humbled by all this information which was not known to me.

Continuing with the series of posts about rare Mukesh gems, here is a wonderful solo song from the film Hum Matwaale Naujawaan (1961). This film is a social drama, produced under the banner of Rover Films, Bombay and directed by LR Asthaana. The star cast includes Shekhar, Saeeda Khan, Jeevan, Agha, Lillian, Mirza Musharraf, Chaman Puri, Gopal Sehgal, Tun Tun, Indira Bansal, Kammo Tripathi, Ravikant, Baby Farida etc. The film was not any major success at the box office, but it did leave its mark. Its music and songs are really very good – a typical grade A quality of music for a B/C grade film. The lyrics are Majrooh Sultanpuri and the music composition is by Chitragupt. This song is a lovely melody, that has been wonderfully rendered by Mukesh.

Presenting the song in response to the farmaish posted by Lalitha ji.
Stree (1961) is another classic creation by the legendary V Shantaram. The film depicts the story of Shakuntala and Dushyanta (from the epic Mahabharat). For V Shantaram, this was a remake of his earlier film Shakuntala (1943). Interestingly, the earlier film was made with Jayashree (mother of Rajshree) in the role of Shakuntala. At that time, Jayashree was married to V Shantaram. The 1961 remake featured Sandhya in the main role, and after divorce with Jayashree, Sandhya was now the wife to V Shantaram, who himself re-enacted the role of Dushyanta in the movie.
