Good find. Allow me to translate it for those who don't
know the language:
It is very difficult. Strange is my heart, neither does it
know how to desire someone, nor does it know how to find someone.
I have corrected Lata ji's last name in the Subject header.
Jai Maharaj, Jyotishi
Om Shanti
Thanks for the correction. There is no reference to this film
at the customary places, such as IMDB. Even a search
under google did not locate it. Perhaps it was a megaflop
or was not released at all. In any case, the cast and
crew were as follows:
Year produced: 1954
Producer: CO. OP. PICS.
Director: S.SHRIWASTAWA
Music: MANOHAR
Cast: NALINI JAYWANT, SHEKHAR, PRAN, LEELA MISRA,
SUNALINI DEVI.
And the lyrics were written by the great Shailendra.

One web site lists the producer as Corporate Pictures and the release
date as Saturday, January 1, 1955. But it is difficult to visualize
a flop with Pran in it. A friend who passed on recently was a
walking Filmfare and imdb rolled into one. He would bug everyone
with his favorite trivia question: in how many films did Pran not
play and villain and which ones? Who would want to see a film in
which he played any other role!
, , , the great.
Cue up a song by Mukesh ji.
As for Badi Mushki song, just enjoy the absolutely flawless
rendering by Lataji. And the wordings by Shailendra, depicting
the conflicts in a young maiden's mind leaving adolescence
and entering youth Very beautiful.
Re Pran, one that I can recall was Aah (1953), where Pran played
the role of Rajkapoor's doctor friend. Rajkapoor's character
discovers he is going to die of TB in a short time, but he
hides that fact from Nargis's character, and persuades
Pran's character to marry her.
The other I recall was a comedy type, named "Do Jasoos",
(mid 70s) or something like that. I remember the last scene
in which one of them (as a comic sequence) is seen
walking in a Burqa.
Pran in a scene from "Do Jasoos":

I don't recall if Pran smoked a cigarette in the doctor role in
"Aah", nor think that his non-villain roles did him good or the
films at the box office.

You seem to have forgotten UPKAAR
> You seem to have forgotten UPKAAR
Yes (elderly, lots of information in the brain cells,
slower-than-before seek time -- but no dementia). "Upkaar"
was a launchpad onto different types of roles for Pran.
