(Music Composer R.D. Burman’s Remembrance Anniversary)
——————————————————————

Today 4th January 2026 is the Remembrance Anniversary of Rahul Dev Burman fondly known by his nickname ‘Pancham’.

On this occasion we are paying our tributes to him by coverig a few of his compositions that have not yet been covered in the blog.

So far, we already have covered four songs composed by Pancham (including one shared by Nahm jee, which incidentally is a Pancham composition though not mentioned in the writeup). The earlier posts had songs sung by Mohd Rafi, Amit Kumar, Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhonsle, Yesudas and Kavita Krishnamurty. These four posts have taken care of several human emotions and moods except the feeling of sadness. Also so far, we have not covered a song in the voice of Kishore Kumar composed by Pancham today, without which the tributes will remain incomplete. In this post I am presenting a sad song sung by Kishore Kumar.

After covering songs released in 1900s (mostly from 1960s to 1980s), this becomes my first post covering a song released in the current millenium that started from 2000.

Many HF music lovers consider the golden era of HFM as finished in 1970. For me personally, it stopped in 1980. Not that post 1980 there was not good music but it was too few and far between. So if till the 70s decade, every year 7 or 8 movies out of 10 had good music, then it fell down to 4-5 out of 10 in 80s and 2-3 out of 10 during the 90. But post 2000 it became 2-3 out of every 25 movies released. These are entirely my figures from my gut feeling, I don’t attribute them to any study or report. Therefore, you have been seeing my posts from primarily the 60s to the 80s decades.
