At
the time when Teesri Manzil was being produced, actor Shammi Kapoor was
a force to reckon with. When Nasir Hussain informed him of his
intention to sign up young R.D. Burman for the film, the actor was not
really too pleased. However, once RD played a few of his tunes, Shammi
Kappor agreed - specially after listening to the tune which went on to
become the signature song of Teesri Manzil.
Garm hain, tej hain, yeh nigahe meri Kaam aajayengi sard aahen meri Tum kisi raah mein to miloge kahin Ishq hoon, mein kaheen theharta hi nahin
With
Asha & Rafi's vocals, Helen setting the dance floor on fire, and
amidst the byplay between Asha Parekh & Shammi Kapoor, you almost
miss the person behind the drums - a small appearance by someone who
came to the industry wanting to be an actor, but went on to become one
half of the most prolific screenwriting duo of Hindi Cinema alongwith
Javed Akhtar- Salim Khan.
