Today we remember Feroze Nizami on the anniversary of his passing away. His familiar image in the minds of many people it that of a music director and composer. There are fabulous creations that stand testimony to his talents as a master of music. What is lesser known is the fact that Feroze Nizami Sb was a multi faceted and a multi talented personality. He was an exceptional singer himself, in the mold of classical singing. He was also a writer, and an acknowledged expert and teacher of music. His book, ‘Asraar e Mauseeqi’, a definitive work on classical music written in Urdu, remained a standard textbook on the subject in Punjab University (Lahore) for many decades. He was a regular contributor to newspapers and magazines, writing research papers and articles on music. In addition, he was very learned in the field of Sufi literature. Another book by him, ‘Sar-chasma e Hayaat’, is a famous and oft referred work on this subject. He was well learned in the fields of Homoeopathy, Philosophy, and yes, Hindu religion.

It is generally believed that scriptwriters (I use this word to include story, screenplay and dialogue writers) in Hindi films gained recognition and their status enhanced thanks to Salim-Javed duo who reigned over Hindi film industry with their fast paced screen plays and dialogues during 70s and early 80s. In fact, those days during our family discussions, if someone gives a hard hitting response, we used to say “here comes Salim-Javed” which would help in bringing normalcy to the ongoing heated disussions. The duo became so popular that they used to decide who would be the lead actor in the films for which they wrote scripts. It is also believed that in addition to their fixed component of fees, they would also get a share of profits from the films for which they wrote. I have seen their names being printed in bold letters in film posters and newspapers advertisements signifying that along with lead actors, music director etc, the name of Salim-Javed also played a role in attracting cinegoers to the movie halls.
