Rafi’s rendition was undoubtedly haunting

The only song from Neel Kamal (1968) on this blog was the haunting Aaja Tujhko Pukare Mera Pyar.

It was rendered by none other than Mohammed Rafi*.

The track, which Sahir Ludhianvi penned, was composed by Ravi Shankar Sharma.

(*Note: Rafi also rendered Babul Ki Duaein Leti Ja, arguably the most popular song in the film. It expressed the grief of a father while bidding his newlywed daughter adieu. The singer's eyes welled up with tears when he came to sing the song, because his daughter got married a few days before it was recorded.)
