Kanhaiya still

Kanhaiya is a 1959 Hindi film produced by Sant Singh Pachhi and directed by Om Prakash. The film stars Raj Kapoor, Nutan and Lalita Pawar. The music was by Shankar Jaikishan. "Ruk Ja O Jane Wali", "Yad Aayi Adhi Rat Ko" and "Mujhe Mere Hal Par Chod Do.." are three memorable Mukesh songs related to this movie. Of these popular songs, "Ruk Ja O Jane Wali" became famous for its filming as it was sung for a bottle of local alcohol, with which a shot of Nutan roaming is also inserted to create an illusion as if it were sung for her. Raj Kapoor portrays a village drunk who does not care until she comes looking for him.
