Pray, what may be the most dear thing in this life?

Something that will never grow old, or stale. Something that will never be lost in life. Something that will only grow fonder with the passage of time. What is that thing?

In this post we cover a song sung by Hemant Kumar from the movie ‘Kitnaa Badal Gayaa Insaan-1957’.

Two songs from this movie have been posted on the blog in the past.

As mentioned by Shri Atul ji in his post while launching this movie on the blog, the title of this movie seems to be inspired from the iconic song ‘dekh tere sansaar ki haalat’ from ‘Naastik-1954’. And the same leading pair of ‘Naastik-1954’ Nalini Jaywant and Ajit was cast in this movie ‘Kitnaa Badal Gayaa Insaan’ again. Both the movies were directed by I.S. Johar.
