I find it interesting to compare the filmy careers of G M Durrani and Surendra Nath. Both of them were tall and handsome and amateur singers. While G M Durrani virtually ran away from his home town Peshawar for Bombay (Mumbai) to pursue a filmy career, Surendra came to Bombay after completing his education (B.A., LLB) to become a lawyer. But a chance meeting with Mehboob Khan in 1936 changed his career path and he became a singer-actor in his first film ‘Deccan Queen’ (1936). Because of his singing style, he was seen as a clone of K L Saigal. In fact, he was called ‘Bombay Saigal’ after his parody song birhaa ki aag lagi more man mein based on K L Saigal’s baalam aaye baso more man mein. G M Durrani also started his stint with the film industry around the same time (1935-36) as an actor-singer in ‘Saaed-e-Hawas’. After acting in a couple of films, he decided to concentrate on playback singing with his distinct voice which was not influenced by K L Saigal.

Ek gaana hai, kareeb chaalis saal puraana – “Chain Se Humko Kabhi, Aap Ne Jeene Ne Diyaa” . From the film ‘Pran Jaaye Par Vachan Na Jaaye’. And the year is 1973. Yes getting to be about 40 years ago. But listening to this song, even today – the sound, the feelings, and the words – all appear to be so young and so fresh. And the lyricist – composer pair is SH Behari and OP Nayyar. A partnership that started in the mid 50s, and flowered exceptionally in the decade of 60s to give so many memorable songs one after another.
