This is the story of two friends, Aslam (Guru Dutt) and Nawab (Rehman) , caught in love triangle. This triangular love story was set in the city of Lucknow. Nawab Pyare Miyan and Aslam fall in love with Jameela (Waheeda Rehman) unknowingly. The song sequences were the highlights of the film. Guru Dutt surpassed his contemporaries in the art of song picturisation especially the song  Chaudhvin ka chand ho ya aftab ho tum…. Chaudhvin Ka Chand is one of Guru Dutt's most enduring films. It left everlasting images of Waheeda Rehman who was at her beautiful best in the film. Music director Ravi's greatest hits like Chaudhvin Ka Chand Ho is still considered one of the best roamantic songs of the Hindi Cinema.
