#GoodNight #DevAnand #Sadhna #GoodNightSong #Bollywood
This fantastic song, that has become a memorable song indelibly etched on the psyches of music lovers across the generations, was a magical song when it was released in 1961. This song, picturised on Dev Anand and Sadhna has remained popular ever since.
Few people have much idea about the movie (Hum Dono) or about the music director (Jaidev), but the song is the one which was never forgotten, so there is no question of this song being not known to any music lover.

Vijay 'Goldie' Anand was primarily the reason why #DevAnand continued to shine beyond the 1950s and #ShammiKapoor got his most enduring memory in 'Teesri Manzil'

Born on this day in 1934, Goldie Anand remains one of the greatest ever filmmakers ever.
A mastercraftsman, Goldie Anand at 19 wrote 'Taxi Driver' that became the first big hit of his elder brother Dev Anand's production house, Navketan, and also his eldest brother's, Chetan Anand, first commercial success.
A dew years later while driving to a location, Kalpana Kartik, who had married Dev Anand after 'Taxi Driver,' asked Goldie to entertain her. Goldie narrated what became 'Nau Do Gyarah.

Dev Anand was in the car too but Goldie narrated on the condition that he'd direct the film.
