sar jo teraa chakraae (Hindi: सर जो तेरा चकराए, Urdu: سر جو تیرا چکرائے) is a song from the 1957 Indian film drama "Pyaasa".
The movie is about a poet Vijay (played by the actor Guru Dutt) who denounces this world as hypocritical and materialistic.
At some point in the plot Vijay is committed into a mental institution, but a friend of his called Abdul Sattar (played by the comedic actor Johnny Walker) helps him escape.
The video clip shows Abdul Sattar offering a service of head massages wit oil on the street. This scene works as a temporary relief to the audience, from the drama unfolding in Vijay's life. Abdul pitches his massage as a cure for all ailments and problems.
The actor deliberately uses semi-illiterate clichés when pronouncing certain words, for example muskī for muśkī, or kuskī for xuśkī.
The song was composed by the enormously famous singer, director and composer S.D. Burman, and it was sung by the no less famous Bollywood playback singer Mohammed Rafi. The lyrics were written by the Urdu poet Sahir Ludhyanvi.
