The lines of this song “dil deewaana dil mastaana maane na” may remind most music lovers of the “Maine Pyaar Kiya” (1989) song that goes “dil deewaana bin sajna ke maane na”. The song “dil deewaana dil mastaana maane na” is not from that movie though. It is from a much older movie viz. “Aawaaz” (1956) and it is regarded as a timeless classic.

This is a song from MUSAFIR-57, a film in the 50s, which became famous for its different presentation style. It was,in fact, not one continuous story, but a collection of 3 stories, taking place in one house. This was a new approach in Hindi cinema and there was a mixed reaction to this film from the audience and the critics.

I some how reach a Majrooh Sultanpuri song very often. This one is a comic song in the film Maaya (1961). The music director for this film is Salil Chaudhary and it is written by Majrooh. Mohammad Rafi is singing this solo song for Agha. Helen is also seen in the picturization. Agha and Helen are indulging in western style dance using props. Helen is brandishing a small purse and Agha has two props, a hat and a walking stick to dance with. They are also using some extra artist standing around, as ‘Ellora Ajanta Qutub Minar” and Dilli, Bombay and Calcutta.

This song is a title song picturized with the titles of the film. Come to think of it, Jagdeep was lip synching Rafi songs as far back as in 1956. In this song, he is doing a Charlie Chaplin like comeo scene of getting up in the morning and greeting the birds, hence the song is ‘ lo bhor huyi panchhi nikle ‘ .
