Today’s song is from the film ‘Road No. 303’ (1960).
This film was special in many respects. Let’s start with it’s title. Among the total of 3240 Talkie films made in the first 30 years of Hindi films (1931-1960), only 19 Hindi films had titles which actually had numbers in their Titles. The first one to have a numerical figure in its title was Miss 1933 (1933) and the last one to have it was today’s film Road No. 303 (1960). Just for information of our readers, there were 7 such film titles in the 1930’s (total films 924), only 4 such film titles in the 1940’s (total films 1191) and 8 such film titles in the 1950’s (total films 1125). There were hundreds of film titles having figures in words, like ‘Ek Thi Ladki’, ‘Do Gunde’, ‘Teen Batti Char Rasta’ etc. but numbers in titles were a novelty.

chupke se kho gaya. . .
Searching through his list of songs, I chanced upon this gem of a melodious creation – one of those ‘love at first hear’ type songs that I have really come across after so many days. It has been sitting in my collection forever, and I pulled it today, looking for an unheard or less heard song to include in this post. The composition is quite atypical with a different sound structure attempted. A beautiful melody that I am sure you will also fall in love with.
Remembering C Arjun today, on the anniversary of his passing away (30 April, 1992).

I had neither heard this song nor the name of the movie this song is from. Name of the movie is “Road No 303” (1960). YT, whose information is always required to be taken with a pinch of salt, mentions the year as 1963. This B grade movie was a Mahesh Pictures production and it was directed by Dharmesh Kumar. The movie had Mehmood, Shubha Khote,Bhagwan, Helen, Tiwari, K. N. Singh,etc in it. I found that the year of release of this song is variously shown as 1959, 1960 and 1963.
