When I started collecting cassettes in 1985, I was very crazy about purchasing of cassettes at regular intervals; I was always searching for songs of old films (especially of Rajesh Khanna films at that time).

It was my practice, beginning from 8th standard onwards that I would take up some part time job during my vacations which I would give up as classes would resume. I had taken up a part time job during the vacation period after class 12th as well, but unlike the previous years, I did not go back to my classes this time, rather I continued with this job since I was aware that I was going to fail in my exams.

Dara Singh needs no introductions. The name, the face and the physique is very familiar to more than six generation of Hindi film audience, and especially the fans of Indian free style wrestling. Born on the 19th November, 1928, Dara Singh belongs to a Jaat Sikh family of Amritsar. As a teen ager, he grew into a gangling and muscular young man measured in at 6 feet and 2 inches, and the move for becoming a wrestler was almost natural. Trained in the traditional akhaaras of rural Punjab, he was very active in the wrestling circuit in the 40s and 50s, in India, as well as outside India. He is one wrestler who caught the fancy of the general public, and has been a popular figure in professional wrestling till 1983, when he retired from it.

In the previous qawwaali I had posted (Poochho Na Hamen Ishq Mein Kyaa Kyaa Nazar Aayaa), we saw Dara Singh and Mumtaz enjoying the qawwaali being performed by Jagdeep, Mohan Choti, and Shakila Banu Bhopali.

This qawwaali is co-presented on screen by Dara Singh, along with Maruti and a host of junior artists.
