The man who would
go on to live up to his first name as the ‘Raja’ (king) of ghazal
writing in Hindi films – Raja Mehdi Ali Khan – wrote a song that featured on
the soundtrack of a film that released in 1947, and went on to become a
prophecy.
The track in
question was Yaad Karoge, Ek Din Hum Ko Yaad Karoge.
And the film was Do
Bhai.
The lady who
rendered it (and was indeed remembered forever) was none other than Geeta Dutt.
By the way, a
prince – S D Burman – composed the song.
