The film credits R.D. Burman with composing the music. However, credit may belong elsewhere. A song named Hele Maali by Iranian-American musician Zia Atabay came out in 1977, and has the same tune as Jahan Teri Yeh Nazar Hai.[3][4] Amitabh Bachchan, the star of the movie, has also claimed credit for it.[5] The lyrics to Jahan Teri Yeh Nazar Hai were written by Majrooh Sultanpuri.

Music video

In the film the Amitabh Bachhan character sings the song in a nightclub while pinching an expensive diamond necklace off the neck of the beautiful posh girl he is dancing with, all the while thwarting the designs of the girl's original dance partner (Amjad Khan) who had set out to do the same thing himself. The song is a series of boasts about his own prowess at sleight of hand and taunts directed at the rival thief.
