This was the oR(af)iginal track

While the original is unforgettable, its recreation* was unforgivable.

Folks, the song in question is Khoya Khoya Chand**.

The shorter of the two tracks from Kala Bazar on this blog, it was four minutes and 43 seconds long.

Shailendra penned the S D Burman composition, which Mohammed Rafi rendered.

[*Note (1): I’ve written a post on the recreated version on my blog on the music of Hindi films released between 2010 and 2019. It was from Shaitan (2011).]

(**Note (2): Incidentally, Khoya Khoya Chand inspired the title of a 2007 film and its title track.)
