I have posted different kind of songs in this blog. There is one big category of songs which are sung atop some mode of transportation viz car, train, boat etc. I have noticed that Jeetendra, the jumping jack takes the cake when it comes to singing songs atop different modes of transportation. In addition to the usual modes of man made transportations, he has sung song atop less obvious modes of transportation too. For instance, there was one Jeetendra song sung atop an elephant.

We tend to discuss great songs from the past and go overboard discussing about the great message, great quality of melody, music, lyrics, voice etc contained in the songs. Here is one such song which has absolutely no pretentions of any kind about being a great song. It is a totally timepass song. This song was supposed to be there just to raise a few laughs in the movie. It indeed does so, but it has managed much more than that.

Rajesh Khanna, the superstar of late 1960s and early 1970s had fans swooning over his mannerisms. Whatever he touched turned to gold those days.
