Trivia


 

    Album

  • Following its success at the box office, the film was remade in Tamil as "Yaar Nee" (1966) and in Telugu as "Aame Evaru" (1966). J. Jayalalitha played the lead role in both the remakes. Encouraged by its success, director Raj Khosla repeated this genre with Sadhana in two more films - "Mera Saaya" (1966) and "Anita" (1967).[1][2]
  • Saawan Kumar's film "Ab Kya Hoga" (1977) may have been inspired by this film.[3]
  • The scene in the film in which Manoj Kumar and Helen's characters meet for the first time used Bobby Darin's theme music for the romantic comedy "Come September" (1961). This theme was used in many other Hindi films - for the songs "Aaja Mere Humzuban Main Dhoondhoon Yahan Tu Hai Kahan" ("Rocket Tarzan", 1963), "Pyar Ki Aag Mein Tan Badan Jal Gaya" ("Ziddi", 1964), "Pukarta Chala Hoon Main" ("Mere Sanam", 1965), "Nazrein Mili Dil Dhadka" ("Raja", 1995) and "Dole Dole Dil Dole" ("Baazi", 1995) and in the background score of several films including "Kahin Pyar Na Ho Jaye" (1963) and "Hamraaz" (1967).[4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11]

    Song

  • Naina Barse Rim Jhim Rim Jhim - Madan Mohan had composed this song more than a decade ago, in 1952. However, it was never picked by any director for one reason or the other till this film.[12]
  • Naina Barse Rim Jhim Rim Jhim - Lata Mangeshkar was unwell when this song was to be recorded. Since the song was required for the film shoot, Madan Mohan recorded it in his voice. Actress Sadhana, on whom the song was filmed, had to lip-sync to Madan Mohan's voice! The song was recorded in Lata's voice after she recovered.[13]
  • Naina Barse Rim Jhim Rim Jhim - The tune of this song was plagiarised by music director Vedha for the Telugu film song "O Na Raja Raava Raava" ("Aame Evaru", 1966).[14]
  • Naina Barse Rim Jhim Rim Jhim - Kishore Desai played the mandolin in this song.[15]
  • Lag Jaa Gale Ke Phir - This song almost did not get recorded because director Raj Khosla rejected it after he listened to it the first time. However, actor Manoj Kumar loved the song and asked the director to listen to it again. The director accepted the composition after he listened to it the second time.[16]
  • Tiki Riki Tiki Riki - This song was used in the film but not issued on records.
