I was under the impression that that the title song (Saarangaa teri yaad mein(Saarangaa)(1960)) of “Saarangaa” (1960) was the only memorable song from this movie.

Now that I have been able to locate this song and I am trying to clear the backlog of farmaishes, here is this song from “Ganga Jamuna” (1961).

I had mentioned in one of my earlier posts that I keep an excel sheet to keep track of all the songs posted, as well as all the farmaishes sent by readers. It appears that Sid, a longtime reader and farmaish sender of this blog also maintains an excel sheet to keep track of the farmaishes sent. 😀 Sid would often remind me of farmaishes sent long time back.
