There are people who think that Asha Bhonsle mostly sang light songs (cabarat etc) and she did not sing “serious” songs or song based on classical raagas. Of course that is not correct. Most songs in Hindi movies are indeed based on some Raag. The singers and music directors, whether they are trained or not follow the framework of raagas, unless it is a western song that they are composing.

“Milan” (1967) was full of wonderful songs in it. The popularity of its songs during the heydays of this movie was to be seen to be believed. Personally I was a very young and impressionable kid who loved listening to the songs of this movie at that time. As for watching the movie, I finally watched the movie only in 1980s, which is not the same as watching this movie when it was first released.
