Undoubtedly, the oR(af)iginal song rocked!

If the three songs from The Train (1970) were arranged in the alphabetical order, Gulabi Aankhen (or ‘the conjunctivitis song’, as I called it when I was a kid) would be the first.

The song, which was penned by Anand Bakshi, was composed by R D Burman.

It was rendered by the one and only Mohammed Rafi.

A recreated version of the track – titled Gulabi 2.0 – featured on the soundtrack of Noor, which released in 2017. My blog on the music of Hindi films released between 2010 and 2019 contained a post on this version.
