Here is a duet from “Sangam” picturised on Raj Kapoor and Vyjyanti Mala. The people involved in creating this song are the usual suspects, viz Shankar Jaikishan, Shailendra, Mukesh and Lata. This song is a party song, and this movie seemed to have quite a few party songs, I do not know why.

Legend has it that Salil Chaudhari, the leading music director of 1950s refused to take Kishore Kumar seriously on finding out that Kishore Kumar was untrained in classical music. But when he listened to Kishore Kumar’s voice, Salil Chaudhari changed his opinion and agreed to use Kishore Kumar’s voice in his forthcoming movie called “Naukri”, where Kishore Kumar incidentally was acting too.

It was an out and out timepass song. But it was so good that it became an evergreen song, and an immortal song as well. So if one ever wants to listen to an evergreen timepass song, look no further than this song.
