He had his own style and his voice had long lasting soothing effect. It will be unjust to compare him with leading singers like Rafi or Manna Dey. Hemant Kumar, as a singer, was criticized for his Hindi pronunciations. It is not mere coincidence that the tune they used to sing was the tune of this song!! Students in my class used to memorize a few poems of the next standard just by listening to the seniors singing it. My personal experience with his song Mera Dil Yeh Pukaare Aaja (Singer- Lata) tells what composer Hemant Kumar was!! In school days we were told by the teacher that the best way to remember a poem is to recite it with a melodious tune. (Can anyone forget the songs like Tan dole re, Mera Dil Ye Pukare Aaja, Jaadugar Saiyya ?) After that he adorned many films with his melodious compositions like Shart, Anupama, Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam, Bees Saal Baad, Jaagruti (the famous film with story and songs inculcating values in kids!!) Hemant Kumar was the first awardee for his most popular film Naagin. But initially for 2 years it was meant for the composer of the best one song, before 1956, when it was started to be awarded to the composer of the best music in the entire film. It was always fresh, irrespective of the mood of the songs.įilmfare award for the Best Music Director started in 1954. Although he was ardent follower of Ravindra Sangeet, he did not let his Hindi compositions be influenced by it unlike a few other composers from Eastern India. He worked as a composer for Bengali films before he moved to Mumbai for composing music for Hindi films. ![]() Hemant Kumar, a Bengali man, was born on 16 June 1920 in Varanasi. The effect of the composition and voice of Lata Mangeshkar is not only inspirational but takes you really to the 19th century revolution. But this man, named Hemant Kumar Mukhopadhyay, proved them wrong, right in his debut as a bollywood-composer in the film ‘Anandmath’ in 1952. It is the masterpiece in the film based on Raag Yaman.Ī few people opined that ‘Vande Mataram’ would not be suitable for military band or march. From second antara onwards the rhythm of the song continues but wordings start conveying two meanings. However, while singing, the heroin (Asha Parekh) receives a message from the villain (Pran) blackmailing her with the life of a kid. Mujhe Tum Mil Gaye Humdum(Love In Tokyo)-Lata Mangeshkar/Shankar-Jaikishan/Hasrat Jaipuri.This time my theme is Bollywood songs picturized on piano, having some taunts, complaints, sarcasm!! Usually when the hero or heroine cannot express his or her feelings publicly, with Piano in the picture, the feelings some-how become a puzzle for the audience and reach only the intended person (how that happens is really a mystery to me □ )!! Just like a software-encryption!! ![]() But Piano, although a very sweet instrument, often stands out for its mysterious behavior. Still, to picturize a party-theme accordion is kind of ‘must’ and Sitar for a classical mehfil. Bollywood songs are not very often picturized with instruments. Flute, Violin, Guitar, Piano are part and parcel of the orchestra for a song, but that is largely in the background. ![]()
