To say that the Ganguly
gang (better known as the Kumar brothers) had a flair for comedy would be an
understatement.
And that was
amply evidenced by the zany Chalti Ka
Naam Gaadi, the second-highest grosser of 1958.
The title of the
film could be translated to that which moves is a car, but lyricist Majrooh
Sultanpuri’s collaboration with composer S D Burman ensured that that which
succeeded was its soundtrack.
Babu Samjho Ishaare, which was four minutes and 54 seconds
long, was rendered by Kishore and Manna. Needless to say, Dey had a ball.
