Jhoom Jhoom Ke Nacho Aaj

God forbid if you met the Pianoman at an engagement celebration. Well, he always got invited and got to play at the pre nuptial celebrations of his unrequited love or love gone awry. 

It was at such dos that Pianoman was in his element- wry to the core and oozing with double entendres. He sang of wishing happiness to the lucky couple but his words emerged like a double edged sword, slashing hearts and creating quite a lot of confusion and commotion in the mind of his once lady love. 

Pianoman made sure that he wrecked the couple's most important day with his seemingly detached delivery of good wishes! ;-))

Love the lead in the movie,  the only movie where Raj Kapoor and Dilip Kumar appeared together. Dilip Kumar could be so convincing in his misery without ever overdoing it. Raj Kapoor though more flamboyant, is brilliant in the part where he is getting irritated with Nargis's moroseness. The lithe and vibrant Cuckoo dances and enthralls with her moves. This was a classic movie and no doubt it needed a piano to complete the setting. Music by Naushad and lyrics by Majrooh Sultanpuri, vocals by Mukesh yet again.
