And there are many a great artists with wonderful qualities to create and render in films and film music. Majority of those whom we remember, are not with us anymore in this physical world.

The other day someone commented on this blog, that “Dosti” (1964) is a film which has all but one songs sung by Rafi. The commentor had also queried if Atul ji could name a film with all song sung by Rafi. When I saw that comment, the first movie that came to my mind was ‘Sargam'(1980). With Rishi Kapoor singing all the songs and Jaya Prada playing a mute girl, it had 7 songs, 3 Rafi solos and 4 Rafi-Lata Duets. Than I remembered that even ‘Laila Majnu” had all but one Rafi song.

It would be an injustice to call Om Prakash just a comedian. Although that is the performance for which he is most famous. In a career that spans almost six decades (from mid 40s to early 90s), Om Prakash has acted in more than 300 films. And yes, most of them in comic roles. But what sets him apart from the regular crop of comedy actors on the Hindi screen, is his
ability to handle serious roles as a character artist. His portrayals in films like ‘Khandaan’ (1965), ‘Gopi’ (1970), ‘Buddha Mil Gayaa’ (1971) and ‘Annadaata’ (1973) are serious characterizations that stand on par with the leading artists of his time.
