This (Kisho)rendition was AB(ho)s(o)l(ut)ely priceless

Main Sitaron Ka Tarana, from Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi, was a inK(isho)redibly naïve, and cute, declaration by Mr Kumar that he preferred paanch rupaiya barah anna* to the gorgeous Madhubala.

Ms Bhosle (A)shared singing credits with him.

Majrooh Sultanpuri penned the song, which was five minutes and 47 seconds long, and was composed by S D Burman.

(*Note: An anna was equivalent to 1/16th of a rupee. Four annas were equivalent to 25 paise, and barah anna, which means twelve annas, were equivalent to 75 paise. So, he wanted her to pay him Rs 5.75.)
