A girl meets boy, falls in love. Such a simple story, told so nicely and imaginatively told in a song! This is a beautiful song composed by the veteran Sachin Dev Burman and penned by Rajinder Krishan. The song is from the film Ek Nazar released in the year 1951 starring handsome Karan Deewan and Nalini Jaywant. This song seems to be filmed on some other actress obviously teasing the heroine. The chorus gives able support to the bubbly and magnificent voice of main singer Geeta Roy. Listen to the way she sings “Oh dekho…” in the opening lines. This is one of the signature songs of Geeta Roy – S D Burman team, obviously overshadowed by the more popular songs from the films like Baazi.

Most of the times the composer gets the limelight, hence posting a pic of lyricist Rajinder Krishan above along with Geeta Dutt.

I could not find a video of this song, so you can enjoy the audio here. I apologize for the poor audio quality of this recording.

   Most welcome Pardesi. I am glad that you liked this song. There are hundreds of such songs of Geeta ji which are very melodious but buried under the passage of time. I will try to uncover them here on NG.
