This kiddie number was imPReSSive

Hai Na Bolo Bolo was a popular children’s song from Andaz.

It was rendered by Mohammed Rafi and Suman Kalyanpur, who were joined behind the microphone by Sushma Shreshta and Pratibha.

In those days, it was not uncommon for grown-up female singers to sing for girls, and girls to provide playback for boys. So, it was Pratibha who sang for the boy who played Deepu in the film.

The track was penned by Hasrat Jaipuri, and composed by Shankar Jaikishan, who were nominated in the Best Music Director category at the Filmfare Awards in 1972.
