Summary: Bhatt took considerable liberties with the history of India’s classical music for this megahit focusing on an encounter between Tansen (Surendra), court musician in Akbar’s (Gupta) Mughal court, and the itinerant Baiju (Bhushan). When Tansen’s guards kill Baiju’s father (Bhagwanji), he avenges himself by defeating Tansen in a musical contest. Naushad used leading classical singers D.V. Paluskar and Amir Khan as playback voices for the highlight of the movie,
the contest itself. This was Meena Kumari’s first important role, playing Baiju’s self-sacrificing sweetheart, Gauri. Remembered mostly for its music.

Song: Akeli mat jaaiyo Raadhe,

दूर कोई गाए धुन ये सुनाए

loot lo dil ka pyaar
निर्धन का घर लूटने वालों
लूट लो दिल का प्यार

Song: O duniya ke rakhwaale, sun dard bhare mere naale
ओ दुनिया के रखवाले, सुन दर्द भरे मेरे नाले
