To state that the producers of 1954’s highest-grosser (Na)g(r)inned all the way to the bank would be an understatement, and a
huge chunk of the credit for the film’s success went to its music, which was
composed by Hemant Kumar, who bagged the Filmfare Award for Best Music Director
in 1956.
Rajinder Krishan penned the track, “Jaadugar saiyan, chhodo mori baiyan, ho gayi aadhi raat, ab ghar jaane
do” (O my beloved, who is a magician, let go of my hand. The clock has
struck midnight; let me go home now.)
Lata’s rendition was M(ang)es(hkar)merising.
