Rahul Dev Burman creates a sweet, sweet melody that drips honey using notes that are so beautiful, there's not a single step missing in his creation. His orchestration is impeccable, conjuring the joy of unknown love snapping a finger and missing a vibraphone heartbeat to Majrooh's lyrics. Suresh Wadkar and Asha Bhosle coat this gem with their own brand of confection. Melody doesn't get better than this. Not then. Not now. Not ever.
