R.D. Burman was required to perform an audition for Shammi Kapoor to secure his place as the music director of this film. This was the first song he sang in the audition. Even as the young composer hummed the tune, Shammi Kapoor, who had heard the original Nepali song, interrupted him and completed the song. Burman, who was already nervous, was shaken by this. He took a smoke break from the audition and came back to sing the remaining tunes. Kapoor was delighted with these songs and gave his approval for Burman to Nasir Husain.[MR9]
In Nasir Husain's script, this song started right after Shammi Kapoor delivered a line. Shammi and Vijay Anand felt that this created unevenness in the scene. Anand, however, did not want to change the scene without Husain's consent. Since Husain was in Mumbai then, he called him on the phone and had a discussion with him before deciding to end the scene preceding the song with a line spoken by Asha Parekh.[MR52]
Vijay Anand was not satisfied with Shammi Kapoor's walk for a shot in this song sequence. He felt that Shammi was not walking in sync with the song. Shammi, who took great pride in his sense of music, was offended by Anand's comment and asked him to show him what he wanted. When the filmmaker enacted the scene, Shammi readily agreed to follow his cue and re-shot the scene to Anand's satisfaction.[MR52]
