Mukesh won many a hriday

Despite saying, “Mera dar khula hai, khula hi rahega” (which could be translated to, “My door is open, and will always be”) to producers who didn’t go by Raj Kapoor, Mukesh wasn’t as prolific as either Mohammed Rafi or Kishore Kumar.

Yet he did render quite a few gems, including Koi Jab Tumhara Hriday Tod De (the track the aforementioned line was from).

It was from Purab Aur Paschim.

Indeevar penned the track, which was composed by Kalyanji-Anandji, and must have prompted the listeners to wonder why he was cocksure someone would break her heart.
