Trivia

Song

• Hum Dono Do Premi - R.D. Burman adapted the tune of the last line of the antaras of this song for the flute interlude in the song "Raah Pe Rahte Hain" ("Namkeen", 1982). Portions of this song in turn may have been inspired by the prelude of the song "Chalte Chalte Peechhe Mud Ke Dekh Zara" ("Jaise Ko Taisa", 1973).[1][2]
• Hum Dono Do Premi - Director Shakti Samanta had approached R.D. Burman to record this song for him at a time when the Indian Film Musicians Association was on strike. Samanta had dates with the in-demand Rajesh Khanna and Zeenat Aman at the time and didn't want to lose them at any cost. He pleaded with Burman to somehow give him a song so he could shoot it on them. While brainstorming with his team, Burman had asked Ranjit Gazmer aka Kancha to play the madal and sing a Nepali song. It was based on Kancha's tune that Burman had composed this song. Since Burman did not have any musicians at his disposal due to the strike, he used a minimalistic arrangement for this song with Manohari Singh on the flute, Bhupinder Singh on the guitar and Kancha playing the madal.[3]
• Hum Dono Do Premi - This was one of the earliest, if not the first, Hindi film song to be shot atop a moving train in its entirety.
• Bheegi Bheegi Raaton Mein - The sound of thunders in the introduction of this song was created by shaking asbestos sheets in the recording studio.[MR9]
