Trivia


 

    Album

  • This film saw Nasir Hussain debuting as director. After writing hits like "Anarkali" (1953) and "Munimji" (1955) for Filmistan, he convinced the banner's owner, Tolaram Jalan, to give him a chance to direct a film. The film's success set Nasir Hussain on the path to becoming one of the leading filmmakers of the Hindi film industry.[1][2][MR14]
  • The film's male lead role was initially offered to Dev Anand but he turned it down since he didn't want to be paired with Ameeta who was yet to establish herself. Since Filmistan owner, Tolaram Jalan, had greenlit the film based on the condition that his protege Ameeta would be given a lead role in the film, director Nasir Husain then approached Sunil Dutt. It was only when Sunit Dutt declined the offer that Nasir Husain, on producer Sashadhar Mukherjee's suggestion, brought on board a struggling Shammi Kapoor. The film's huge success transformed Shammi Kapoor into a superstar specializing in romantic musicals.[MR14]

    Song

  • Tumsa Nahin Dekha - Director Nasir Hussain developed differences with Sahir Ludhianvi after this song was written and replaced him with Majrooh Sultanpuri who wrote the film's remaining songs.[MR8]
  • Tumsa Nahin Dekha - Shammi Kapoor probably used the phrase "Yahoo" for the first time in this song, a few years before "Junglee" (1961), which established it as a catchphrase Shammi Kapoor would be associated with for the rest of his career. He also used this phrase in the film "Dil Deke Dekho" (1959).[3][4]
  • Tumsa Nahin Dekha - A couple of interesting tricks employed by director Nasir Husain elevated this tonga song above the other songs of that period which used back projection. One of these involved Nasir Husain using shots of a spinning wheel to give an illusion of motion. In another short, it appeared that Shammi Kapoor was hanging out from the tonga with the moving road below his head. In reality, the actor was simply leaning back against the screen with the back projection.[MR14]
  • Aaye Hain Door Se Milne Huzoor Se - Majrooh Sultanpuri's first line in the mukhda of this song was taken from the first antara of the Hindi film song "Jate Ho To Jao Par Jaoge Kahan" ("Milap", 1955) written by Sahir Ludhianvi.[5]
  • Dekho Kasam Se Kehte Hain - The tune of the song's mukhda may have been inspired by "Kiss Me Another" composed and written by Charles Friedman and recorded by Georgia Gibbs in 1956.[6]
  • Sar Pe Topi Lal - This song may have inspired the tune of the mukhda of the Hindi film song "Thehro Meri Jaan Ek Do Toh Niklen Armaan" ("Pehla Pehla Pyar", 1958).[7]
