Tumhe Dekha Hai Maine..

If Padosan was a milestone for RD, so was Pyar ka Mausam, released in 1969 - where he teamed up again with Rafi, Majrooh & Nasir Husain to serve a sumptuous treat of music.

However, post Teesri Manzil, this was not the first movie where Rafi & RD created some beautiful music. There were a few moree, including this one from Chandan ka Palna in 1967.

The composition begins with Santoor & Sarangi, and through out Pancham has also added instruments like Tabla as well as Flute, thus giving the song a very traditional touch. Interesting, however, is that little touch of Bongo that begins each of the interlude.

Rafi is, of course, on very familiar ground over here rendering softly as a very debonair looking Dharmendra wooes Meena Kumari, using some beautiful verse penned by Anand Bakshi:

Tumhi hi ho meherbaan, tum hi sitamgar

Badal sakata hai iss dil ka mukkadar

Tumhaari ek na mein, Ek haan mein

Ke jannat dhundh li hai Is jahaan mein
