“Khoya Khoya Chand, Khula Aasman” — just saying these words takes you back to a magical time in Bollywood. This dreamy track from Kala Bazar (1960) wasn’t just a song; it was a piece of musical brilliance brought to life by S.D. Burman, Shailendra, and a young R.D. Burman.

And guess what? The story behind it is just as fascinating as the song itself! Apparently, there was quite a bit of last-minute drama. S.D. Burman, feeling the pressure to deliver, sent his son, Pancham (that’s R.D. Burman for us fans), on a mission. The task? Track down Shailendra and get those elusive lyrics — no excuses!

But Shailendra, being the poetic soul he was, needed the right moment to strike. Instead of locking himself in a room, he took Pancham along for a ride through Mumbai. From National Park to Juhu Beach, they wandered under the stars, soaking in the night’s charm. And then, somewhere along that breezy midnight drive, inspiration hit. Staring at the sky, Shailendra pulled out a cigarette pack, scribbled down the iconic opening lines, and the rest is history.

Imagine that — one of Bollywood’s most romantic songs born on the back of a cigarette foil! It’s the kind of story that makes you appreciate the song even more. Next time you listen to “Khoya Khoya Chand”, just picture that moonlit drive and the spark of creativity that brought those magical words to life. Classic, right?

  • CAPITAL LETTERS Shuddh Swars (Natural Notes)
  • small letters Komal Swars (Flat Notes)
  • with # [hash] or ^ [exponent] = Tivra Madhyam (M# / M^)

  • Letter/Alphabet PRECEDED BY a ” . ” [full stop] or  a ” , ” [comma] = Low Octave Note/Softer blow on flute
