“Miss India”(1957) was directed by I S Johar for Rawal Pictures, Bombay. This movie had Nargis, Pradeep Kumar, Nishi, Shammi, Tuntun, Sheela Vaz, Minoo Mumtaz, I S Johar, Pran etc in it.
Mr. K Satish Shenoy, while writing about an earlier song of this movie had given the story of this song. Here is what he had to say about the movie:-
The movie “Miss India” is not about a beauty contest winner. The movie refers to the leading lady as “Miss India”, because the character is about an educated, self reliant, righteous young lass who fights for her rights, against injustice and comes out a winner.
Nargis graduates as a lawyer. Her father puts out a matrimonial advt asking for a match for the educated lady without expecting dowry. An imposter (Pradeep Kumar) marries her & absconds, abandoning her, & taking away her jewellery. She comes to the city, in search of him, & to reform him & continue her married life (& not to catch him & punish him- –after all she is a Bhararatiya Naari !
.
After few fruitless days she finds him, but he is unable to recognise her (since he ran away without lifting her ‘ghoongat’.! –That is typical Bollywood!). At this point she befriends him in the guise of a young lad, so as to buy time to reform him. This disguise also helped her find a job.
To cut a long story short, she manages to make him realise his misdeeds and in the end they unite. In the final scenes there is a court case where all riddles are resolved and judge notes the trouble Nargis has gone through and says she is a role model and should be referred to as “Miss India”!!
. “Miss India”(1957) had ten songs in it. Nine of them have been covered in the past. Here are the details of the songs that have already been covered:-

Here is the tenth and final song from “Miss India”(1957). The song is sung by Asha Bhonsle and Manna Dey. Rajinder Krishan is the lyricist. Music is composed by S D Burman.
Only the audio of this song appears to be available. I request our knowledgeable readers to throw light on the picturisation of this song.
Though the singers, lyricist and music director are all legends and they all have had long and distinguished careers, but it may surprise some to know that this is the only Manna Dey-Asha Bhonsle duet created by the lyricist-MD combination of Rajinder Krishan and S D Burman. In fact, Rajinder Krishna and S d Burman worked together only in five movies. This movie was the last occasion when the came toether in a movie.
With this song, “Miss India”(1957) joins the list of movies that have all their songs covered in the blog.
