(R)Af(f)irmatively, this track was wonderful

Dev Anand spent the first three decades of his career charming Devis and the next three yearning for a box-office hit. The latter, obviously, left him nursing a broken heart.

However, with a little help from his B(ekh)ud(d)ies S D Burman and Mohammed Rafi, he dealt with the former in Kala Pani.

Hum Bekhudi Mein Tumko Pukaare Chale Gaye was composed by the former and rendered by the latter.

Majrooh Sultanpuri penned the track, which was three minutes and 17 seconds long and could be translated to, “In an inebriated state, I kept calling you.”
