Manoranjan is perhaps the only Hindi movie where prostitution was presented as a 'fun' activity without moralising and the lead actress sleeps with men other than the hero and is not an issue. For 1974 the film in India was a revolution was panned by the critics and the audience due to the sense of immorality.[citation needed]
R.D. Burman composed the memorable songs. Asha Bhosle earned a Filmfare Nomination as Best Female Playback Singer for the song "Chori Chori Sola Singar," the only nomination for the film[1]. Among the rest of the cast are Paintal, Asit Sen and Dev Kumar.
