Golden greats Mohammed Rafi and Geeta Dutt bounce off each other on this playful number with fun lyrics from Majrooh Sultanpuri, which still puts a smile on your face more than 65 years later. Jaane Kahan Mera Jigar Gaya from Mr & Mrs 55 (1955): This soundtrack from this romantic comedy has a lovely energy, which is perfectly illustrated by this light-hearted duet. Nayyar brings out the best in Shamshad Begum’s vocals on a song that ticks all the boxes of a Bollywood classic from the golden era. Kabhi Aar, Kabhi Paar from Aar Paar (1954): The title track didn’t make a huge impact upon release, but has become iconic over time, having been covered by other artists and sampled by big named producers. To mark the death anniversary of a music icon, who delivered countless classics across various decades, Eastern Eye took on the impossible task of putting together an ultimate OP Nayyar playlist of top 12 tracks, limiting ourselves to one per film and listed in chronological order. Those much-loved songs still light up classic films, airwaves and have collectively clocked up more than a billion views across video sharing sites today. By the time he passed away on January 28, 2007, aged 81, the massively important figure in Hindi cinema history was largely a forgotten man and all that remained was his incredible body of work.
