Mukesh sang with gay abandon

This isn’t a track dedicated to the Indian LGBTQIA+ community, which has been trying to find its Pehchan. But it is the only song from the 1970 film of the same name on this blog.

Indeed, the track is Bas Yehi Apradh Mein Har Baar Karta Hoon.

What Gopaldas Saxena ‘Neeraj’ wanted to convey when he penned its next line – “Aadmi hoon, aadmi se pyar karta hoon” – was that he was a man who loved mankind.

It earned him a nomination in the Filmfare Best Lyricist category in 1971.

Mukesh rendered the Shankar Jaikishan composition.
