“Shreemati 420″(1956) was produced and directed by G P Sippy. The movie had Meena Shorey, Johny Walker, Om Prakash, Kamal, Rajan Kapoor, Maya Das, Helen, Hari Shivdasani, Manorama, Baby Shashi, Uma Dutt, Ratan Gaurang etc in it.
Today (14 september 2014) is the 110th birth anniversary of G P Sippy (14 september 1914- 25 december 2007). To most people he is known as the producer of the blockbuster “Sholay” (1975). He had produced some other well known movies as well, viz. “Bhahamchari” (1968), “Andaaz” (1971), “Seeta Aur Geeta” (1972), “Saagar” (1985) etc.
On this occasion, here is song from “Shreemati 420″(1956). This song is sung by Asha Bhonsle and Rafi. Majrooh Sultanpuri is the lyricist. Music is composed by O P Nayyar.
Only the audio of this song is available. according to Rafi excel sheet, this song was picturised on Johny Walker and Meena Shorey. I notice that this movie had two more duets of Rafi with other female singers-viz one with Shamshad Begam and another with Geeta Dutt and these duets were also picturised on the same lead pair of Johny Walker and Meena Shorey.

Lyrics(Provided by Prakashchandra)
main dhoondhti hoon kahaan ho sanam
nazar nazar behak rahi hai aa
jhoomke gaa rahi hai zindagi
ek bas teri kamee hai sanam
pukaarta hai dil tujhe sanam sanam
nazar nazar chhehak rahi hai aa
chhed de mastiyon ki raagini
main hoon jab tere liye toh kyaa hai gham
ye fizaa ye raat ki jawaniyaan
tere mere pyaar ki kahaaniyaan
ye fizaa ye raat ki jawaaniyaan
tere mere pyaar ki kahaaniyaan
meharbaan tumhaari meharbaaniyaan
jeete hain tere liye khuda kasam
meharbaan tumhaari meharbaaniyaan
jeete hain tere liye khuda kasam
main dhoondhti hoon kahan ho sanam
nazar nazar behak rahi hai aaa
jhoomke gaa rahi hai zindagi
ek bas teri kami hai sanam
pukaarta hai dil tujhe sanam sanam
nazar nazar chhehak rahi hai aaa
chhed de mastiyon ki raagini
main hoon jab tere liye toh kyaa hai gham
husn ka nikhaar hai tere liye
zulf ki bahaar hai tere liye
husn ka nikhaar hai tere liye
zulf ki bahaar hai tere liye
aur ye khaaksaar hai tere liye
shikwe sab mitaa diye khuda kasam
aur ye khaaksaar hai tere liye
shikwe sab mitaa diye khuda kasam
main dhoondhthi hoon kahan ho sanam
nazar nazar behak rahi hai aa
jhoomke gaa rahi hai zindagi
ek bas teri kami hai sanam
