Madan Mohan teamed up with Raja Mehdi Ali Khan and Rajinder Krishan in most of his movies and on the other hand he rarely worked with the leading names (Shailendra, Majrooh Sultanpuri, Sahir Ludhianvi and Hasrat Jaipuri). But in this movie, he worked with Hasrat Jaipuri. And what superb lyrics Hasrat Jaipuri came up with in this movie !

One normally associates Ghazals and serious songs with Madan Mohan, but that does not mean that Madan Mohan could not create other kinds of songs, including light hearted songs. One certainly does not associate a Helen-Asha Bhonsle party song with Madan Mohan, but here is one such song.
