In the 78 rpm records, the song's mukhda went "Ladne de nazar se nazar milne de jigar se jigar". This line was changed to "Kahen kya nazar se nazar samajh le agar bekhabar" in the film due to the Censor Board's objection. Instead of recording a new version of the song, the modified line was sung by a different singer, resulting in an uneven transition from the first line of the mukhda to the remaining lines sung by Geeta Dutt.
