Of the 3 awards for Shailendra songs - in my honest opinion only yeh Mera diwanapan hai deserves award but other two don't. Simply because he has written far better songs 5han these two. He was undoubtedly great lyricist.

Awards are given with popularity over all

Which including music selling by HMV. I never like Shailendra s Lyrics in major films but i rate Hasrat Jaipuri better than others

some of the awards given defy any logic. No popularity or anything. They used to buy awards as told by Rishi Kapoor in his biography. He bought an award for Bobby for 30k Rs in '73 which would have been given to Rajesh Khanna otherwise. Similarly for Guide , SD Burman da was asked if he pays hefty amount he will get the award, but he refused. So it went to S-J for horrible work in Suraj. Where is Guide and where is Suraj 🤦.

in B/w Era Awards were not buy as you described above
