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).

Today, February 8th 2014 is the 73rd birth anniversary of Jagjit Singh ( 08/02/1941 – 10/10/2011) who is regarded as a catalyst in reviving ghazals as a form of singing not only in India but across the world. He transformed ghazal singing into an easier and acceptable form to suit the taste of masses. And what a coincidence! When Malika e ghazal, Begum Akhtar passed away in October 1974, Jagjit Singh was on the way up of becoming a popular ghazal singer when his first LP disc ‘The Unforgettable’ (1976) became commercially successful. So there was a sort of change of guard and handing over the baton of sorts in that Jagjit Singh took over the mantle of ghazal singing after the demise of Begum Akhtar.
