"Mohe Panghat Pe Nandlal Chhed Gayo Re" (transl. Krishna teased me at the river bank) is a song from the 1960 Hindi film Mughal-e-Azam, directed by K. Asif. The song is composed by Naushad, written by Shakeel Badayuni, and sung by Lata Mangeshkar with a chorus. It is picturised on Madhubala, who plays the role of beautiful courtesan Anarkali in the film and portrayed Radha in the song. It was shot in technicolour and choreographed by Lachhu Maharaj.[1]

Composition

The song was objected to by veteran director Vijay Bhatt. Although he was not directly involved with the project, he thought that it would "ruin the film", since it showed the Mughal emperor celebrating the Hindu festival Janmashtami.[1] Though Naushad argued that the presence of Jodhabai made the situation logical, he met with the film's screenwriters and subsequently added dialogue that explained the sequence.[2]

The song "Mohe Panghat Pe Nandlal Chedd Gayo Re" composed by the musician Naushad for the film Mughal-e-Azaam was inspired by the song Kahe Gumaan Kare Re Gori.[3]
