Kapoor became synonymous with patriotism

If the three songs from Purab Aur Paschim (1970) on this blog were arranged in the alphabetical order, Bharat Ka Rehnewaala Hoon would be the first.

And there’s no two ways about the fact that Hindi film music buffs will always be grateful to the film’s producer, director and leading man Manoj Kumar for ‘zero’ing in on Mahendra Kapoor, whose voice was associated with patriotic songs.

The song was penned by Indeevar.

It was composed by Kalyanji Virji Shah and Anandji Virji Shah. Today (June 30, 2019) is the 91st birth anniversary of the former.
