Song “Sau baar janam lenge” ,Qawali “Milte Hi Nazar Tum Se” and other songs were hit.
The film was remade in :
Tamil as Vallavanukku vallavan in 1965
Telugu as Monagallaku Monagadu in 1966
Composer VEDA requested RAFISAAB to sing in Tamil.
RAFISAAB humbly told him, there is a Tamil Rafi TMS (T M Soundarajan) please ask him, if he doesn’t sing, I will try to sing as I’m New to tamil.
RAFI SAAB never snatched songs.
This was his greatness.
Musically Pheeko Moorthy.
