Uff, it was auRaL Ma(a)gic!

By no means would it be incorrect to state that the phrase Uff Yun Maa – the hook of Yeh Aankhen Uff Yun Maa, from Jab Pyar Kisi Se Hota Hai – had Hindi film music aficionados hooked.

Hasrat Jaipuri, who penned it, deserved kudos for turning a phrase that most people weren’t familiar with into a superb (and hummable) song.

The compliment was interesting – it was as innocuous as it was sophisticated.

And more importantly, even the one being serenaded joined in. 

Lata Mangeshkar and Mohammed Rafi sang the track, which was composed by Shankar Jaikishan.
