Part of Rehman Verma interview, from the book Jahan-e-Fan by Zahoor Chaudhary.

He is discussing how he came to give music in Heer Ranjha (1948):

Now Baba Chishti had gone to Lahore. Wali Sahib persuaded me and Khaiyyam to go to Bombay (from Calcutta) to finish the rest of the work for the film. Wali Sahib changed our names, respectively, to Vermaji and Sharmaji. I remember that we recorded a Panjabi song in the voice of Geeta Roy, "Ud Pud Janiya, Gheo Khan Khaniyan, Te Chunni Lai De Lal Rang Di".  Similarly, we recorded, "Kahe Ko Biyahi Bides" in the voice of Lata Mangeshkar.
