He was followed by P L Santoshi, Nakhshab, Jaan Nisar Akhtar, Shailendra, Gulzar to give a few examples.

I was not aware of the fact that there was one more film by the same name until I came across an audio clip of a beautiful song from that film.

I had taken it for granted that the song ‘zindagi ki kasam ho chuke unke ham’ from film MAALIK (1958) has already been discussed in this blog. When I saw the movie-wise list of songs just to know in which year this film was released, I found that two songs from this film have been discussed and this song was not one of them.
