He goes to look for her house and finds she lives with her maternal uncle, a music maestro of sorts, and Pritam enrolls himself in his class.

In this cheerful state, he returns home and decides to carry on with life without Neena. It is then Neena returns, very much alive, and finds that Pritam is not in a state of mourning, but is enjoying life to the fullest. She decides to teach him a lesson that he will never forget. Watch what happens when the lesson commences and what impact this has on our care-free friend - who is currently wooing a dancer by the name of Edna Wong.

Cast

Soundtrack

For the first time, in this movie, Manna Dey sang for Kishore Kumar. Kishore Kumar, being extremely busy with acting at this point in his career, did not have time to record all his songs, hence other legendary Bollywood playback singers like Manna Dey, Mohammed Rafi and Mahendra Kapoor sang some songs filmed on him during this period.
