Kapoor bagged his M(ahendr)aiden award

Here’s a riddle, folks.

What is a line no person, regardless of gender, would like to hear, but became a song that everyone loved to listen to?

The answer is, “Chalo ek baar phir se ajnabee ban jaayen hum dono” (which could be translated to, “Let us become strangers again”.)

It was the only song from Gumrah (1963) on this blog.

The track, which was penned by the one and only Sahir Ludhianvi, was composed by Ravi Shankar Sharma.

It earned Mahendra Kapoor his first Filmfare Award in the Best Playback Singer category in 1964.
