Mahendra Kap(oor)italised on the (Cho)p(r)atronage

In 1957, Mahendra Kapoor won the All India Metro Murphy competition, and a C(h)o(u)p(ra)le of years later, he rendered Tere Pyaar Ka Aasra Chahta Hoon, from Dhool Ka Phool.

The film, which was produced by B R, marked his younger brother Yash’s directorial debut.

Lata Mangeshkar was the co-singer of this duet, which was penned by Sahir Ludhianvi, was composed by N Datta and can be translated to, “I want the shelter of your love.”

Mahendra went on to sing for many films produced under Chopra senior’s B(anne)R. These, undoubtedly, proved beneficial to his Ka(poo)reer.
