Trivia
Although the music for this song was credited to Ravindra Jain, it was actually composed many years ago by Shankar - Jaikishan for another Raj Kapoor movie, "Ajanta", that was shelved.
Hasrat Jaipuri, who wrote this song for the shelved film "Ajanta" in 1952, received an unsolicited payment for it from Raj Kapoor when it became a big hit in 1985 - more than 30 years after it was written! This despite the fact that the lyricist had already been paid for writing the song for Ajanta.[MR4]
Actress Silk Smitha asked music directors Raj - Koti to use the tune of this song for "Veera Viharam" (1987), a Telugu film produced by her. The result was a song titled "Raa Itu Raa" sung by Mano and Chithra.[1]
