It moved Rafi to tears

While I have already written about Aaja Tujhko Pukare Mera Pyar – the Mohammed Rafi solo from Neel Kamal (1968) – in my blog about the music of Hindi released between 1960 and 1968, this is a post on the track during whose recording he wept.

The track in question was Babul Ki Duayein Leti Ja, and was sung by a father when his daughter leaves her parents’ home after her wedding.

It earned him a nomination in the Best Male Playback Singer category at the 1969 Filmfare Awards.

Sahir Ludhianvi penned the song, which Ravi composed.
