Mukesh, a voice that simply does not cease to surprise. It is known that the total number of songs sung by him are numbering around 1,000. The only hope that this number may go up is discovery of maybe some more songs, but that number will not be huge. Most people refer to the Geet Kosh for identifying the songs under various categories. And it is a fact that the Geet Kosh still has some missing details, especially for the films in the 1930s and 1940s. If possible that continuing additional search may yield more details for some films, where the song details are missing. And we may be able to discover more songs sung by the singers in those years.

Today (22 july) is the birthday of Mukesh. This gives us an opportunity to dedicate the day for some as yet undiscussed Mukesh songs.
Mukesh had a singing career that began in 1941 with “Nirdosh” (1941) and he had a playback career lasting 26 years till he died in 1976. During his career, he sang around 800 songs in Hindi movies. We in this blog have already discussed 452 of them. So we are already more than halfway there. If we discuss the remaining Mukesh songs at the rare of one song daily and more on special occasions like his anniversaries, then I hope that we will be able to cover all remaining Mukesh songs by this date the next year.
