Chand Phir Nikla, rendered by Ms Mangeshkar, was from Paying Guest (1957).
It couldn’t have
been on the soundtrack of any other film, because its first line sounded more
like an exasperated La(ta)ndlady’s plaint (upon noticing that it’s late and her
tenant hasn’t returned yet) than the La(ta)ment of a habitual latecomer’s beloved.
And its second didn’t
just speak about the consequent helplessness, but also ended with a sigh.
Four minutes and
43 seconds long, it was the longest song in the film.
It was penned by
Majrooh Sultanpuri and composed by S D Burman.
