Wiki.
Maya (lit. 'The illusion') is a 1961 Bollywood film directed by D.D. Kashyap.
The film stars Dev Anand and Mala Sinha along with Lalita Pawar in the main lead. This film Maya was made just a year before Asli-Naqli, but with a very similar story line. It was less successful in the box office compared to Asli-Naqli. But with the music of the film, composed by Maestro Salil Chowdhury and the songs penned by Majrooh Sultanpuri, the film was a big hit and was much liked.
