Lata’s version was better known

The soundtrack of Raat Aur Din contained a couple of versions of its title track (Raat Aur Din Diya Jale).

While the male version was rendered by Mukesh, the female was sung by Lata Mangeshkar.

However, this blog contains a post on just one – the latter, which was a tad more popular than the former.

Shailendra penned the track, bringing out the contrast between the lamp that burns during the day as well as at night and the darkness in the mind of the protagonist.

It was composed by Shankarsingh Raghuvanshi and Jaikishan Dayabhai Panchal.
