Look at this write-up to this song. Radio Ceylon, the first ever radio station in the South East Asia popularized English songs of the Indian artists back in the 60s and 70s. This paved the way for some of the biggest names in India today, such as Usha Uthup to score huge hits. When the pioneering broadcaster late Vernon Corea played Ernest Ignatiuss I Married A Female Wrestler (recorded in 1969) for the first time on Radio Ceylon English Service, it became an instant hit. Later on Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation, which Radio Ceylon is now called, went on to play I Married A Female Wrestler over and over in the 70s. It has remained a popular hit today, even after some 40+ years since it was introduced by Vernon Corea.
