My list of ‘songs that create nostalgia and brings back memories’ include many songs sung by Rafi Saab, viz. ‘jhoomta saawan dekho aaya’, ‘shikaar karne ko aaye shikaar hoke chale’ etc.
The song under discussion today is one of those songs. When this film was released I was one year old, so I think that I must have watched this film when I must be of 5 or 6 years old.

Today (10 december 2014) is the thirteenth death anniversary of Ashok Kumar (13 october 1911- 10 december 2001). Ashok Kumar was the original superstar of Hindi movies who earned this status in 1943 with “Kismat”(1943). Ashok Kumar’s film career began in 1930s and spanned the entire 20th century. He played all kinds of roles as an actor. He was much more than an actor, though. He was a movie produced as well. And he was well connected (through marriages) to lots and lots of major personalities of Hindi movies. In fact, if you are a trivia buff, then you can find that he was connected (through marriages) to people like Ravindranath Tagore, Prithviraj Kapoor etc in addition to the more obvious people like Mukherjis, Samarths etc. And he was of course the elder brother of Anoop Kumar and Kishore Kumar.
