Director Asit Sen was different from the actor-comedian Asit Sen. Director Asit Sen acted in the original Bengali film Deep Jwélé Jaai (1959) in a role (the brief role in which Dharmendra appeared in Khamoshi) where the movie-goers actually could not recognise him because it was a dark scene marked with the baritone voice of Hemant Kumar. Later he revealed himself in an interview in the 1990s.
[edit] Music and Songs
The music was composed by Hemant Kumar and some of the popular songs (songs were written by Gulzar) of the movies are :
- Tum pukar lo.. tumhaara intezaar hai (sung by Hemant Kumar)
- Woh Shaam Kuch ajeeb thi.. yeh shaam bhi ajeeb hai (sung by Kishore Kumar)
- Humne dekha hai un aankhon ki mehekti khushboo (sung by Lata Mangeshkar)
