According to music and film expert Rajesh Subramanian, ""Aap Ke Haseen Rukh"" (from "Baharen Phir Bhi Aayengi") was planned with full orchestration but many of the musicians were late for the recording. After a disagreement with Mohammed Rafi, Nayyar began working with singer Mahendra Kapoor. Kapoor performed Nayyar's songs ""Badal Jaaye Agar Maali"" and ""Chaman Hotaa Nahi Khaali"" in "Bahaaren Phir Bhi Aayengi". Based on a Bengali language work by Rabindranath Tagore, Nayyar composed ""Chal Akelaa, Chal Akelaa"" (sung by Mukesh in 1969 film Sambandh).
