This was Hindustani classical singer Shobha Gurtu's first Hindi film song. She had recorded a song earlier for the film "Pakeezah" (1972), but it was not used in the film. It was later released in an album titled "Pakeezah Rang Barang" (1977) along with other songs that had been recorded by Ghulam Mohammed for "Pakeezah" (1972) but had remained unused.[1]
