This is a song from film ‘Shair’ (1949). I am not sure if that is the correct name for this film. If the name is ‘Shaayar’ or ‘Shaayir’ than it will mean ‘the poet’. If it is ‘Shair’ than it is ‘a couplet’. Eight songs from this film have appeared in this blog. I was able to find only one Rafi song in this film which is luckily not posted.

Sometime back, I was wondering about the playback singers who have sung for Dev Anand and I counted about half a dozen different names. Well known names like Rafi, Kishore, Manna Dey, Mukesh, Hemant Kumar, as well as unknown name like Dwijen Mukherji have given playback for Dev Anand. Some people would even like to include S D Burman though I am not sure.

I had commented in the past that S D Burman had used many singers to sing for Dev Anand. In addition to Kishore Kumar and Rafi, S D Burman used the voice of Hemant Kumar and Manna Dey as play back singers for Dev saab. If one looks at movies of 1940s, one finds that some more singers sang for Dev Anand.
