“Aapki Parchhaayian” (1964), like “Anpadh” (1962) was one movie that enhanced Madan Mohan’s repulation as being the ghazal king of Bollywood music world. In both these movies Raja Mehdi Ali Khan was the lyricist who penned some unforgettable songs.

Many Madan Mohan movies are not even known, because these movies were box office disasters. These movies are very difficult to find. “Chhote Babu” (1957) is one such movie.
