When Asif decided to make Mugal E Azam, he wanted Ustad Bade Ghulam Ali Khan to sing for Tansen’s character. But Khan saab was not keen on singing for films. In order to discourage Asif, Khan saab demanded 40 thousand rupees for the song(those were the days when Rafi and Lata were getting 1000 rs for a song). Asif calmly said that Khan saab had asked for very less and gave him one lakh rupees. Then Kham saab had to sing the song. It is a scene where Salim and Anarkali meet for the first time. This song became the most sensuous and romantic scenes of Indian Cinema.
