Trivia
- Dev Anand did not like this song when it was recorded. On the insistence of director Vijay Anand, they decided to shoot it and then determine if it should be retained. By the time the shoot ended, Dev Anand had changed his mind and agreed to keep the song in the film.[MR7]
- A significant portion of this song was shot at the Chittorgarh Fort in Rajasthan. A shot in the fort depicted Dev Anand's character spotting Waheeda Rehman's Rosie in a mirror while she dances in another part of the fort. This shot was inspired by the legend of Alauddin Khilji catching a glimpse of Rani Padmavati in a mirror in the same fort.
- The tune and lyrics of this song's mukhda appear to have inspired the hook line of the song "Aaj Phir Peene Ki Tamanna Hai" ("Loveshhuda", 2016). The opening line of this song was also used in the Hindi film song "Sar Se Paon Talak Dil Hai Bhola" ("Bholaa", 2023).[1][2]
- Kishore Desai played the mandolin in this song.[3]
