This was the only Hindi film song featuring the singers Shamshad Begum, Asha Bhosle, Mohammed Rafi and Manna Dey together.
There were a few lip-syncing issues in the filming of this song. In the song's first antara, Nargis lip-synced for both Asha Bhosle and Shamshad Begum's lines, and Raaj Kumar lip-synced for Mohammed Rafi and Manna Dey. The same issue occurred in the song's second antara with Kum Kum and Rajendra Kumar.
The tune of this song may have been inspired by the Assamese folk song "Ghan Boroxun Pisol Maati" composed by Jogesh Bharali.[1]
