My Primary education was in Urdu language. Hyderabad being a Muslim state, learning Urdu had a definite advantage, but there were schools in English, Marathi, Telugu, Kannada and even Hindi mediums as well in Hyderabad and the treatment to all other languages than Urdu was equal by the Nizam Government. This was because Hyderabad was a Trilingual state, consisting of 8 Telugu speaking Districts, 5 Marathi speaking Districts and 3 Kannada speaking districts, plus the rulers were Urdu speakers. From 5th standard I changed to Marathi Medium and continued till end of schooling. English, Marathi and Hindi were my favourite subjects, but Maths and Geography were my sworn enemies.

Poets as singers may not be an uncommon expectation. Poets are known for their singing prowess in mushairas and in kavi sammelans. They are expected to present their verses in ‘tarrannum’. However, not many have ventured into singing in the films. It is quite strange, because they are the one’s who best know the words, their intent, and their meaning. They also have a fair idea about an underlying melody that hides behind the meter and rhyme that they have created. Lyricist DN Madhok was famous for providing a basic ‘dhun’ to the music directors, for every song he wrote. But still, one does not find many singing in the films in their own voice.

“Same name confusion” , a term coined by our beloved in house encyclopaedia, Mr Arunkumar Deshmukh, is quite common among movie and music lovers. People, including some “reputed” sites confuse among artists of similar names and incorrect information about these artists are then faithfully cut and pasted by them from other sites and such information soon becomes viral on internet.

My first introduction to ‘ghazals’ came about in 1986. Before that it was all ‘songs’, ‘sad songs’ or ‘slow songs’ for me. In 1985-86 I had taken up a job and my boss was a Punjabi from Chandigarh. He was fond of ghazals and I was fond of old Hindi film songs. My boss had with him a good collection of audio cassettes of ghazals by Mehedi Hassan, Ghulam Ali, Jagjit Singh and others. Impressed by my awareness of the old Hindi film songs he asked me to list out and compile old songs (singer wise, actor/actress wise) and get them recorded on cassettes (Sony, TDK cassettes mostly).
