Another interesting song. Here is a guy from the theater auditioning for a role in a talkie in 1934. He names all the plays he has acted in (all famous ones) and sings a song that has the lines,

may bhee ho, mahafil bhee ho, saaGar bhee ho jo paas men,

paas jo dilbar na ho, to ye mazaa kuchh bhee naheen

This is clearly an allusion to the famous rubaaee of Omar Khayyam
