Feroz Khan was a handsome Pathan who gave us some stylish films. And some good songs. Apradh, from the seventies, had car-racing as its background, and some good songs. Two of them that I still remember, are
Tum mile, pyar se, mujhe jeena gawara hua..
Hamare siwa, tumhare aur kitne diwaane hain.
In the film Dharmatma too, there were some good numbers like
Tere chehre mein woh jadoo hai, bin dor khinchaa jaata hoon..
