        Song: Kya Kya Na Sitam Tuz Pe Hue Mehalon Ki Raani
                Qismat  Ne  Likhi  Aansuon  Se  Teri  Kahaani,  O
Mehalon Ki Raani

        Film:   Mohini (1957)
        Music:  N Datta
        Lyrics: Raja Menhdi Ali Khan
        Singer: Mohammad Rafi
        *ing:   Shahu Modak, Nirupa Roy, Raj Kumar

This song shows all signs of characteristic N  Datta  composition
--  ear  catching tune & well controlled orchestration. Tune used
here was later reused by him for Dhul Ka  Phul  (1959)  song  'Tu
Hindu  Banega  Na  Musalmaan Banega'. As a song I prefer this one
over 'Tu Hindu Banega' despite Rafi's very good singing in later.
I  suppose  it  could be because of some appealing poetic phrases
used in this song such as 'Bhagwaan Ke Hote Hue Taqdir? Ne Lunta'
etc.  Also  N Datta has worked more on the tune, in this song and
has developed it well.
