The song is at indianscreen.com.
Could anyone tell where to find the kosh entry for this film
Habba Khatoon as well as this song?
The song and recording appearing good enough, hence, along with
the state of Rafi's voice, it is likely that it was in 1960s or
70s.
I could not find the same in film-index, koshes (film name, song
mukhda). At RMIM also, I could only find the above entry by Asad.
I want to send this entry to whoever was said to be giving
prizes for locating unknown songs of Rafi. Though, My previous
two entries (Aan and Benazir song) didn't elicit any response,
let alone the prized dollars.

Now I recall this one. There indeed was a lot of talk about this
film of Muzaffar Ali.
I don't recall about music atribution of that.
Maybe, there was some other Habba Khatoon in earlier days that
was also not completed.
Is the name jinxed?

Thanks for info.
Was it planned afer Son of India? The music and Rafi's voice in
the song sound from that era.
Seems it got boxed due to demise of Mehboob Khan.
