This trAcK celebrated Shammi Kapoor

Wanted: Dead Or Alive released in 1984.

The only song from the film – sung by Asha Bhosle and Kishore Kumar – was Tumsa Nahin Dekha.

It referenced Shammi Kapoor’s popular films and began with Yahoo!, from his 1961 hit Junglee (whose title was among those mentioned in it).

Even the title of the song was inspired by the actor’s breakthrough hit, which released in 1957.

How he must have missed his voice, Mohammed Rafi.

But Kishore Kumar (Bhos)lent his voice to the song, as did Asha.

It was penned by Anjaan, and composed by Bappi Lahiri.
