I am aware that “Babul” (1950) had Dilip Kumar and Nargis in lead roles. So I was confused when I watched this song from “Babul”. I had no difficulty identifying Dilip Kumar singing in Talat Mehmood’s voice, but who was the lady. she looked unfamiliar. And she did not look like Nargis.

This song was picturised on an actress called Munawwar Sultana. The actress as well as the singer are no more around, but this song has easily become immortal.
