Mr Kumar’s solo was H(em)a(u)nting

Kumar rendered a song that has gone on to become tHe(m)anthem for those jinke pyaar ko pyaar nahin mila.

That ode to unrequited love is Jaane Woh Kaise Log The from Pyaasa.

It’s pertinent to note that while the protagonist (Guru Dutt) couldn’t care less about the identities of those whose love was reciprocated, he was keen in a detail less superficial – how they were.

Indeed, only a complex man could harbour that deep an interest in psychology. 

Penned by Sahir Ludhianvi (Burm)and composed by S D, it was four minutes and 49 seconds long.
