I first became aware of the movie “Saarangaa” (1960) in 1970s when I heard the title song of this movie in the local station of Vividh Bharati in the evening.

Now I know that she is Naaz, also known as Baby Naaz. (I thank Mr Harshad Bhatt for helping me out with her identification). The gentleman is Subiraj.
