  1. What a gem of a song this is!!!!I have been listening to it the whole day. This movie has lovely songs...and as I always say when Shammi and Rafi get together, they are simple mindblowing.

  2. You said it all sunheriyaadein!
    By the way, this song has always been a favourite of mine and I could never get the picturisation out of my mind. The "Gir Naa Jaaon Main Huzoor" and the instant genuflection of Shammi Kapoor and the mischievous anticipation of Sadhna, have left a lasting impression on my mind.
