This song was written by Shakeel Badayuni and music was created by Ravi. Shakeel Badayuni was a lyricist who usually worked only for Naushad. When he was signed up to work for this movie, he came up to Ravi, grabbed Ravi’s hand and told him “I have never worked with an outside production. I am nervous, please cover up for my deficiencies”.
