.Mere Mehboob' a Muslim social drama set in Lucknow, with all the attendant grace and beauty you would expect. Elaborate sets and costumes and all that.

Almost-graduate Anwar Hussain (Rajendra Kumar) has seen a girl’s eyes through her burkha, and fallen hard for them... It happens...It happens !!

Sadhna the sister of a Nawaab Ashok Kr, Rajendra Kr the brother of a nautch girl Nimmi, Status inequalities, social disapproval, Hence this Lovely sad song
