        Song: Zumati Hai Nazar Zumataa Pyaar
                Ye Nazar Chhin Kar Le Gayi Qaraar

        Film:   Hatim Tai (1957)
        Music:  S. N. Tripathi
        Lyrics: Raja Mehndi Ali Khan
        Singer: Mohammad Rafi, Asha Bhonsle
        *ing:   Jairaj, Shakeela

Is this a case of S N Tripathi turning his  face  to  west  ?!  I
don't  know.  But,  I always wonder, if there was any inspiration
from there, while coming up with this  marvelous  song.  One  can
find quite a few western instruments in the song.  Other striking
part is singing of Asha - who sings quite high, creating  a  good
contrast, as Rafi sings low. Amazing composition.

Then,  we  have  Mohammad  Rafi,  singing  a  very  famous  song:
Parvardigaar-E-Aalam,  Tera Hi Hai Sahaara. A perfect example for
communal harmony!
