Hullo Atuldom

“meri awaaz hi pehcaan hain
gar yaad rahe”

So much truth in those words which were part of the lyrics that Gulzar wrote for a song in “Kinaara” (1977). There have been many similar sounding singers but this particular voice had a character of its own. I am speaking of our dear Lata Mangeshkar or Lata didi as she was fondly addressed.

Her association with some movie makers, actors, actresses, music directors & song writers is very well known & documented at many places – both online & offline. We all know the rapport she had with Madan Mohan, Mukesh, Raj Kapoor etc. Her association with Yash Chopra is something that is very often overlooked.

There was a reality show in the 1990s which can be called India’s first music talent search show. The show was conducted jointly by Doordarshan, Lata Mangeshkar & Yash Chopra’s ‘Metavision’. The judging panel had real stalwarts, who knew what they were looking for in the singers. Pandit Jasraj, Bhupen Hazarika, Manna Dey & Lata Mangeshkar (can we doubt their credentials?) were the judges. Annu Kapoor was the host and anchor of the show. Pradip Somasundaram from Thrissur, Kerala & Sunidhi Chauhan from Delhi won the best male & best female awards respectively. The contest was based purely on talent & the singers were judged on various genres, there were no audience SMS or polls or rigging of results. This was in 1996 when Sunidhi Chauhan was just a teenager- she went on to become a playback singer & has a range of songs to her name. Pradip Somasundaram sang a few hundred songs across Malayalam, Tamil & Hindi.

Yash Chopra was a filmmaker who began his career assisting his brother B.R. Chopra in films of the late 1950s. The last film he produced & directed was “Jab Tak Hain Jaan” which released in 2012. Almost all the films he made had songs in Lata didi’s voice; specially the films that he produced & directed definitely had Lata Mangeshkar’s voice in it. There were some films which he just produced which may not have had Lata didi singing in them. But this association was one long-standing one in an industry which is famous for fickle reasons ending famous friendships.

This post is meant to recall two legends (perfect term to describe the two) of the Hindi Film Industry who have given us some wonderful gems. The song accompanying this post is from the 2002 released Yash Chopra produced & Kunal Kohli directed “Mujhse Dosti Karoge”. It had a cast of Rani Mukherjee, Kareena Kapoor, Hrithik Roshan, Satish Shah, Kiran Kumar, Smita Jaykar, Himani Shivpuri, Sachin Khedekar, Uday Chopra, Parikshat Sahni etc. The songs were written by Anand Bakshi and Shiv Kumar Sharma’s (of the Shiv-Hari duo) son Rahul Sharma was the music director. He used Lata Mangeshkar, Udit Narayan, Alka Yagnik, Pamela Chopra, Sonu Nigam, Alisha Chinai & Asha Bhonsle as playback singers.

By the way yesterday (27th September) was Yash Chopra’s death anniversary & on 25th September Rahul Sharma turned 51. And today Lata Didi would have turned 94.
Like she has said in a song of hers

“rahen naa rahen ham,
mehakaa karenge
ban ke kali,
ban ke sabaa,
baage wafaa mein
rahen naa rahen ham”

she lives amongst us through her songs.

Yearwise discussion of Lata Mangeshkar songs in HFM: Part LVII: Year 2004
———————————————————————————————————

In this episode, the 57th episode, we were supposed to discuss Lata Mangeshkar songs that she sang in Hindi movies released in 2003, seeing that previous episode covered songs that she sang in 2002.

It turns out that Lata Mangeshkar did not sing any songs in movies released during 2003. So 2003 was the first year after 1945, when Lata Mangeshkar did not sing any songs in Hindi movies. So we needed to move on to the next year viz 2004. Even in that year, we were drawing a blank, till we reached the alphabet V. “Veer Zaara”(2004) turned out to be the only movie of 2004 where Lata Mangeshkar sang songs. She sang as many as 9 songs in this movie. 90 Hindi movies containing 632 songs were released uring 2004. So Lata Mangeshkar got to sing in 1.1 % of these movies and she sang 1.4 % of songs in these movies. So her era almost drew to a close after ruling the roost for more than six decades.

Here are the details of songs sung by Lata Mangeshkar in Hindi movies released in 2004 :-

S N Movie Music director Lata song in the blog Lata HFM songs recorded in the year Lata solo songs Male duet Female duet Other songs Lyricists
1 Veer Zaara Madan Mohan 3 9 2 4 0 3 Javed Akhtar
Total 1 movie 1 MD 3 9 2 4 0 3 1 lyricist

Lata Mangeshkar worked with 1 music director and 1 lyricist in this one movie released in 2004. Madan Mohan had passed away in 1975, but his unused tunes, which his son had in his possession, were used for this movie, crediting Madan Mohan as the music director.

Laxmikant Pyarelal were the most prolific music directors with Lata, with 664 songs in HFM with Lata Mangeshkar by the end of 2002. Shankar Jaikishan with 457 songs in the voice of Lata Mangeshkar were in the second position. R D Burman with 332 Lata Mangeshkar and Kalyanji Anandji with 307 songs were next ahead of C Ramchandra with 275 songs. Other top music directors for Lata Mangeshkar were Chitragupta (239), Madan Mohan (204), S D Burman (179),Naushad (146), Roshan (144), Hemant Kumar (127), Anil Biswas (120), Bappi Lahiri (112), Rajesh Roshan (111), Salil Chaudhary (109), Husnlal Bhagatram (108), and Vasant Desai (104). Together these seventeen music directors composed 3742 songs out of 5234 songs that Lata Mangeshkar had sung in Hindi movies till end of 2004. Anand Bakshi with 731 songs was the top lyricist with Lata Mangeshkar. Other leading lyricists with Lata Mangeshkar were Rajinder Krishan (555), Majrooh Sultanpuri (407), Shailendra (361), Hasrat Jaipuri (301), Prem Dhawan (201), Bharat Vyas (193), Shakeel Badayuni (189), Sahir Ludhianvi (161) and Indeewar (156). These ten lyricists had penned 3252 songs sung by Lata Mangeshkar till that time.

Here is the summary of Lata Mangeshkar’s playback career in Hindi movies till end of 2004 :
