This social commentary was supeRB

The title of the 1949 film Kaneez could be translated to, “Slave”.

But the only song from the film in my collection was, interestingly, a song that sympathised with the well-heeled.

It was titled Duniya Mein Ameeron Ko Aaram Nahin Milta (which could be translated to, “The wealthy people of the world do not get enough rest”).

Mohammed Rafi was one of the two men who lent their voices to the track.

The other was S D Batish.

This superb piece of social commentary was written by Hasrat Lakhnavi, and was composed by Ghulam Haider.
