Majrooh Sultanpuri on director Mansoor Hussain Khan

Majrooh Sultanpuri says "These roads depict my arms, go because you can't go anywhere without me. After a week of that, I have to write a clownish song 'CAT cat, cat maane billi - RAT rat, rat maane chuha'. See the difference between a philosophical song and on the other hand a clownish type of song.

We write after reading and observing the character if the character is sober then even we write sober, if the character is light then we also ensure we write light songs and we use the vocabulary similar to the character's vocabulary.

In this movie, I got a character whose heroine is sitting in the study and once he reaches their the heroine says that my father won't like you till the time you won't study."

Majrooh Sultanpuri's reputation as a poet was ironically overshadowed by his being a lyricist for popular Bollywood films. Though Majrooh was a very successful lyricist and his "geets" were hummed by millions of people in continents where Indian cinema is the rage, yet it would be unfair to judge him based solely on this lesser work.

He was a serious poet who made significant contributions to the development of a sensibility and an idiom, that was truly inspired by the Progressive Writers Movement. Majrooh Sultanpuri was the last of the group of lyricists that ruled Hindi cinema in the early 1950s and 1960s.

He made his film debut with Shahjehan, starring K.L. Saigal, but his breakthrough film was Mehboob Khan's Andaaz and from then on there was no stopping him. Although Sultanpuri worked with top music directors - Anil Biswas, Naushad, Madan Mohan, O.P. Nayyar, Roshan and Laxmikant-Pyarelal - his best work was with S.D. Burman and R.D. Burman. In fact his most outstanding work was in Nasir Hussain's frothy musicals like Teesri Manzil, Yaadon Ki Baraat and Hum Kisi Se Kum Nahin. He continued to write youthful songs even in Hussain's son Mansoor Khan's films like the evergreen Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak.
