Trivia
All the songs picturized on Raj Kapoor were sung by Mukesh, whom Kapoor used as his singing voice, Except in one Song (Tum Hi Tum ho). It happened one day that Mukesh was unavailable for a song recording, So Mohammed Rafi was called for a dubbing version of the song. Kapoor was so impressed that he used this dubbed song of Mohammed Rafi in the Film.
The original female lead was Madhubala. Shooting had started with her in 1959, but her heart ailment curtailed her career and she left the film incomplete. Her portions were entirely reshot with Waheeda Rehman replacing her.
