He had this unique technique perfected, for which his contemporaries would envy him. There was nothing like it before him, nor now after he is gone. For the want of any better terminology, he would simply call it the “switching on, switching off” technique. On the sets, his was the fastest transition from the self to the role, when the cameras started to roll, and also the fastest pull back to the self from the role, when the director called ‘cut’. I have read this comment by, or heard it in interviews of more than one of his contemporaries, may it be the male or the female artists. They used to marvel at his ability to switch on into the character and the mood in a snap, and then withdraw himself from the character in an instant. Many others would comment that they would take many minutes to get to the right depth of mood and emotions, and after the scene is done, they need time to withdraw from the emotion and return to the normal self.

LOST AND FOUND-GEMS FROM UNRELEASED FILMS…..Song No. 3
—————————————————————

Writing on old film songs and that too on unreleased film songs is a very hard job. Firstly, hardly any information is available on Internet or in books. Secondly, controversies crop up on the statements made in the write up. India being notoriously hopeless as far as recording history of films, music or songs is concerned, it is extremely difficult to arrive at a definite and undisputable conclusion. Most artistes of those times are beyond our reach and if anyone is still alive, he may not remember the facts properly due to old age. In my work in this field, I have found that old age artistes either don’t remember or believe firmly in wrong/desired events and timings making a mess of the whole information.

Hindi movie music was predominanatly based on classical music during the first decade (viz 1930s). It was in early 1940s that Ghulam Haider introduced Punjabi Folk music based songs in “Khazaanchi” (1941). This paradigm shift was avidly lapped up by public and this paved the way for folk music based songs in Hindi movies. Ghulam Haider was followed by Naushad who introdced UP folk music in his compositions. That opened the floodgates and then we had different music directors composing songs based on folk music from different regions.

That is quite a number and it shall keep this team (of all quiet people 😉 ) busy for quite a while.
