There is so much to see and listen to in the duet being featured today that you wonder how much beauty the creators have packed in a sequence lasting just a few minutes. The number is from "Ek Musafir Ek Hasina" (1962). The film is a complete entertainer with good amount of romance, action and mystery in it.
Kashmir is an integral part of the story and Sadhana looks lovely in her Kashmiri outfit. The lyrics are simple, yet they hold your attention. The tune is catchy, with Asha Bhosle rendering the refrain ho jaayega in a different style every time. The vocal and instrumental interludes throughout the song exude much joy. Then there are the little nuances like Sadhana's interaction with the young boy using only her eyes, the sound of anklets accompanying her steps in every stanza, and the peacock dance. All these draw you into the song, and just when you wish there was more to it, it gets over!
Singers: Asha Bhosle, Mohammad Rafi
Lyrics: Raja Mehdi Ali Khan
Music: O. P. Nayyar
