The ‘Shady’ Story Behind ‘Kaala Chashma’ Involves a Cop

The infamous ‘Kaala Chashma’ song made huge sums of money, but the lyricist was paid only Rs 11,000.

You will be surprised to know that Baar Baar Dekho’s popular Kaala Chashma song was written by Amrik Singh Shera, a head constable in Jalandhar.

Shera wrote the song when he was 15, but it was only a couple of months ago when the song was bought from him for only Rs 11,000 for an apparent cement firm opening in Bombay. It was only recently that Shera discovered that his song was used by Bollywood.
