Madan Mohan had initially composed a different song for this song sequence. The song, titled "Mujhe Apni Ankhiyaan Dede O Pyare Panchhi", was sung by Lata Mangeshkar. However, at the producer's insistence, he replaced it with a different song based on the tune of the song "Meow Meow Poonaikutti" from "Kumudham" (1961), the Tamil film of which this film was a remake.[1][2]
