There are already two songs from Chhalia (1973) here. Therefore, I am glad to add another one to make it a trio. The music director is R D Burman.

I find that the movies that I did not like often ended up as big hits (viz. “Muqaddar Ka Sikandar”, “Suhaag” etc). On the other hands , the movies that I like a lot end up getting lukewarm response from the public (viz “The Great Gambler”, “The Burning Train”, “Deshpremi” etc).
