Some of the best Salil compositions. The wonderful Salil orchestration in songs like "unse bichhaD kar" and "ek samay par" will always remain priceless. So will the other songs in this film. Two quite rare songs (with no other versions) are "aag paani mein lagi" and "sajnaa mera dil" are also real gems. The last song appears right at the end of the film. It's a wonderful song with a lush string interlude and then it suddelny stops. Rafi's voice is magic. Does anybody know if the complete song exists ?
