Pandit Narendra Sharma came to the film industry after having excelled in the field of academics and Hindi Literature as an author, teacher, editor and publisher. His songs have a simplicity, yet they are woven with such chaste choice of words from Hindi language. Listening to his poetry and his writings from films is like a shower of fresh flowers – soft, fragrant and very pleasing to the heart and mind. The sounds of “Yashomati Maiyyaa Se Bole Nandlala”, (‘Satyam, Shivam, Sundaram’, 1978) or “Bhanwre Ne Khilaaya Phool Phool Ko Le Gayaa Raaj Kunwar” (‘Prem, Rog’, 1982), or “Tum Aasha Vishwaas Hamaare” (‘Subah’, 1982) are very endearing to the heart. And even before, looking at the earlier decades, the songs like “Mann More Huaa Matwaala” in the voice of Suraiyya from the film ‘Afsar’ (1950), and “Kahaan Udd Chalen Hain Mann Praan Mere” from the film ‘Bhaabhi Ki Choodiyaan’ (1961) come from his pen.

The sheer fusion of the poetry – in verse and in melody, is absolutely astounding in this creation. And folks familiar with Khayaam Sb would not expect any less, and especially when the film is ‘Shankar Hussain’ (1977).

In olden days, many relations were one sided relations in real as well as reel lives. For instance, it was a seller’s market then and the buyer had to be content with whatever he got. In education, teacher would teach and the pupils would listen. Pupils were discouraged from asking questions in case they had any doubts.

Here is another solo of Rafi Sahab from the film “Laila Majnu” (1976). This is a ghazal picturized as a doli song with Majnu following Laila’s doli in the desert and singing this song , imploring Laila to take with her, the prayers of the one who has been left desolate in her love. This is among the last few compositions of Madan Mohan. Lyricist is Saahir Ludhianvi. Master of ghazals as Madan Mohan is known as, this is a brilliant creation of all three legends. A teetotaler simpleton, a cynical intellectual and a broken genuis alcoholic. A strange combination if there were any.
