Posted on: March 1, 2009
This song stands out among the songs of 1970 because of its “shudddh” Hindi words. Words like “Hriday” for “dil” really won my “hriday” over when I first heard this song.

This is a duet sung by Lata and Kishore Kumar,two of the biggest names among playback singers. But the same cannot be said about the lyricist and the music director, both of whom were debutants.
