English translation provided.

There's bad audio (recurring and regular bad static noises) that seems to exist in all versions of the film, lasting from about 42:15 to 44:36 and again (worse) from 1:49:25 to 1:55:20. I removed as much as I could. During those periods, all dialog and music is wiped out. Hindi speakers might want to turn on the subtitles if they have trouble understanding. There are other short-lived audio problems as well, consisting mostly of background noise resulting when I turned up the volume when the dialog was too soft to understand.

The Encyclopedia Of Indian Cinema says this about Paying Guest:

A mixture of romance and crime with Nutan
giving an uninhibited performance in one of
her best roles outside Bimal Roy’s socials.
Hero Ramesh (Anand) masquerades as an old
man to be near his beloved Shanti (Nutan). The
crime plot in the latter half of the film concerns
the faithless Chanchal (Khote) who is
disinherited by her husband Dayal and teams
up with Shanti’s brother-in-law, the villainous
Prakash. Shanti is later accused of having
murdered Prakash but her innocence is finally
established. Dev Anand’s antics include an
elaborately staged fight between his two
guises: as the old man Mirza and as the frisky
Ramesh. Kishore Kumar sings some of his
best-known Dev Anand playback numbers
including Mana janab ne pukara nahin,
Chhod do aanchal zamana kya kahega (with
Asha Bhosle) and O nigahen mastana.
Chand phir nikla was sung by Lata
Mangeshkar.
