How apt is it that
Ja Ja Ja Ja Bewafa, the Geeta Dutt
solo from Aar Paar, was penned by
Majrooh Sultanpuri*?. Majrooh is Urdu for injured. A synonym for the word is
hurt, the emotion that was conveyed in the O P Nayyar composition.
The next three
lines of the song’s opening verse went, “Kaisa
pyaar kaisi preet re, tu na kisi ka meet re, jhoothi teri pyaar ki kasam” (What
love? You cannot be anyone’s mate, because your promise of love is a lie).
(*Note: His real
name is Asrar ul Hassan Khan.)
