Do rang duniya ke aur do raaste

“Do Raaste” was a musical blockbuster. It had great songs sung by Rafi, Lata, and Kishore Kumar. But it was Mukesh who got to sing the Title song, and needless to say, this song too is just as popular as the other songs of this movie. Mukesh has sung this song full of pathos, as was his wont.

“Dosti” (1964) was a Rajshri production movie that had an idealistic and moralistic storyline. But the movie is today known for its music. Just about every song ( most of them Rafi solos) went on to become immortal songs. It is difficult to pick the best of them, and I advise that one should avoid the temptation to rank them, and instead one should just enjoy listening to them.
