My last post on the blog was on 7th August 2016, and the last contribution I shared to Atul ji was on 11th Aug, so it’s already over a month that either there was a post by me on the blog or I had shared a new write-up to Atul ji.
However the musical journey was on. I was searching for songs on various themes that I wish to share and also the new write-ups that I wish to share in future.

There are many lyricists who joined Hindi film industry since the talkies came into being. While some of them became famous, many remained in the background though some of them were connected with the film industry for a considerable length of time. The result is we do not have much information about the latter category of lyricists as far as their their detailed profiles are concerned. In this category, the names of Dr. Safdar ‘Aah’ Sitapuri, Rammurti Chaturvedi, Bhutaram Sharma, Shams Lucknowi, Kaif Irfani, Shevan Rizvi and many more come to my mind. Among the ‘many mores’ is the lyricist Aziz Kashmiri about whom very little is known of his life before he joined Hindi film industry.
