“Mehboob ki Mehandi” was a Rajesh Khanna movie of 1971. It had lyrics by Anand Bakshi and music by Laxmikant Pyarelal. So one can guess that this movie must have some lilting music. And indeed that is how it was.

When I watched this song, the first thing that occured to me was that this scene, if not the entire movie, was definitely inspired from the Sanskrit novel called “Rajtarangini” written by the famous Sanskrit scholar Bilhan.

of the most memorable songs on the topic of opportunists females taking advantage of gullible suitors.
