Everyone wished it were LongeR

Three minutes and 19 seconds long, the title track of Tere Ghar Ke Samne was the shortest song in the film.

The banter between the leads – rendered by Lata Mangeshkar and Mohammed Rafi – included two lines that strike a chord with the listeners now just as they did then – “Ghar ka banana koi aasaan kaam nahin, duniya basana koi aasaan kaam nahin” [which could be translated to, “Neither building a house nor creating one’s own (after getting married) is a piece of cake”].

Hasrat Jaipuri penned the track, which was composed by S D Burman.
