Lyrics :-
khushi jisne khoji wo dhan leke lota
hansi jisne khoji chaman leke lota
magar pyar ko khojne jo chala wo
na tan leke lota na man leke lota

subaha na aayi, sham na aayi
subaha na aayi, sham na aayi
jis din teri yaad na aayi, yaad na aayi
subaha na aayi, sham na aayi

kaisi lagan lagi ye tujhse, kaisi lagan ye lagi
hansi kho gayi, khushi kho gayi
aansu tak sab rahan ho gaye
arthi tak nilam ho gayi, arthi tak nilam ho gayi
duniya ne dushmani nibhayi, yaad na aayi
subaha na aayi, sham na aayi

tum mil jate to ho jati puri apni ram kahani
khandhar taz mahal ban jata, ganga jal aankho ka pani
sanso ne hathkadi lagayi, yaad na aayi
subaha na aayi, sham na aayi

jaise bhi ho, tum aa jao, jaise bhi ho, tum aa jao
aa jao aa jao tum aa jao
aag lagi hai tan me aur man me
aag lagi hai tan me aur man me
ek tar ki duri hai ek tar ki duri hai
bas daman aur qafan me
huyi mot ke sang sagayi, yaad na aayi
aa jao, aa jao, aa jao, aa jao, aa jao, aa jao...

A woman first insults a blind singer, then gets him cured, falls in love with him but ends up rejecting him.
Did You Know?
Helen's only film as heroine and the first film in which Neeraj wrote song lyrics
Actor/Director/Writer: Chandrashekhar (dialogue),Chandrashekhar (screenplay)

The cast also includes Om Prakash, Leela Mishra, Iftekhar, O. P. Ralhan and Tun Tun. Music in the film was composed by Iqbal Qureshi. The song "Subah Na Aayi Shaam Na Aayi", was written by the then new song writer, Neeraj, and Makhdoom Mohiuddin's poem "Chara Gar" is depicted in the song "Ek Chameli Ke Mandwe Tale", which tells the story of two lovers who can never be together.

Storyline..
Lali, played by Helen, returns home from abroad, disappointing her mother with her new attitudes, looks, and affinity to dance. After reluctantly making a trip to the temple at the request of her mother, Lali assumes that the man (Puran) singing in the temple, is referring to her in the lyrics of his song. In response, and to the surprise of onlookers, she slaps him, only to shortly discover that he is blind and was singing a religious song. Feeling guilty, and with the support of her family, Puran is taken to Mumbai (then Bombay), and regains his eyesight following eye surgery paid for by Lali's family.[citation needed]

Lali's character soon changes. Unable to persuade Puran to learn Western dance, she assumes traditional dress and the two fall in love. However, she is subsequently persuaded by her father to marry a wealthy businessman and end the relationship with Puran for the sake of family honour in light of her upcoming sister's marriage, as Puran, being of a "harijan" caste, is deemed unsuitable for her by her parents.

When she is struck by a disability, her husband leaves her.Puran in the meantime becomes a singing/dancing hero.


The script was written by Chandrashekhar, who directed the film and played the lead male role. It was released in 1964.

The film was one of Helen's few successes in a leading role.[1] Filmfare described Helen as someone "who slides across the film with the grace of a leopardess, whose femininity and quiet behaviour are in pleasing in contrast to Bela Bose's enthusiastic flaunting of over-emphasised charms".

Kate Spade noted in her 2013 Cha Cha Cha timeline that in 1964 "Bollywood is hit with Cha Cha Cha fever".

In 2014 Cha Cha Cha was listed in 40 Retakes: Bollywood Classics You May Have Missed by Avijit Ghosh.
