Tribute to Shakeel Badayuni, Hindi cinema's one of the most shining lyricists and poets, on his 49th death anniversary today. Shakeel Badayuni was one of the famous Urdu poets and lyricists of 50s and 60s. He is best remembered for most of his songs with music director Naushad. The most important characteristic of songs of Shakeel Badayuni is their variety and diversity. Shakeel wrote ghazals, geet, poorbi songs, bhajans, naats, qawwali, and sad numbers. Shakeel Badayuni was born at Badayun, Uttar Pradesh on August 3, 1916. After getting early education at home, he graduated from Aligarh Muslim University in 1942. After graduation, he got a clerical job in the Supply department and started living in Delhi. Meanwhile, when working in Delhi, he continued to participate in mushairas happening nearby the city. In 1944, he left his Government job and moved to Bombay to become a lyricist. Shakeel moved to Bombay in 1944 to write songs for films. He met film producer, A.R. Kardar and music composer, Naushad Ali who asked him to sum up his poetic skills in one line. Shakeel wrote, "Hum dard Ka Afsana Duniya Ko Suna Denge, Har Dil Mein Mohabbat Ki Ek Aag Laga Denge". Naushad immediately signed him for Kardar’s film, Dard (1947). The songs of Dard proved to be very successful especially Uma Devi (Tun Tun)’s "Afsana Likh Rahi Hoon". Only a few are so lucky that they attain success in their first film, but Shakeel deserved success which started with Dard and continued on over the years. Together, he and Naushad became one of the most sought after composer/lyricist duos in the industry. Among the scores they churned out together, are those of Deedar (1951), Baiju Bawra (1952), Mother India (1957), and Mughal-e-Azam (1960), that stand out. Other films they scored together include Dulari (1949), Shabab (1954), Ganga Jamuna(1961), and Mere Mehboob (1963). Although Shakeel Badayuni worked most extensively with Naushad, he also collaborated with Ravi and Hemant Kumar as well. His notable films with Ravi are Gharana (1961) and Chaudhvin Ka Chand (1960), while Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam (1962) is his biggest hit with Hemant Kumar. Shakeel won three Filmfare Awards in a row from 1961 to 1963 for his songs 'Kahin Deep Jale Kahin Dil' (Bees Saal Baad), 'Husnwaale Tera Jawab Nahin' (Gharana) and 'Chaudhvin Ka Chand Ho' (Chaudhvin Ka Chand). He was also nominated for films Mere Mehboob and Do Badan. A postage stamp was released on 3 May 2013 by India Post to honor him. Shakeel Badayuni, the master of poetry, passed away on 20th April 1970.

Remembering Naushad: From devotional to playfully romantic, a playlist of his popular songs - music

https://www.liveindiatimes.com/remembering-naushad-from-devotional-to-playfully-romantic-a-playlist-of-his-popular-songs-music/

Tuesday marks the death anniversary of legendary musician Naushad, who was born as Naushad Ali in Lucknow on 25 December 1919. Having made a brilliant career in film music, Naushad had also been conferred with the Dadasaheb Phalke Award (1981) and the Padma Bhushan (1992). 

Naushad used to watch silent films in a Lucknow theatre where he learnt the art of background music – he also worked with the team of musicians hired to play instruments while the silent films played onscreen. However, Naushad’s conservative father considered music as a useless hobby and once even threw his harmonium out of the house, asking young Naushad to choose between his home and music. It was then that Naushad picked up his harmonium and decided to go to Mumbai. However, he did not have the money and it is said that a friend gave him Rs 25 for the ticket to Mumbai in 1937, as per an Amar Ujala report.

After spending several nights on the footpath, Naushad was spotted by a producer who took him to musician Hussain Khan who hired Naushad for Rs 15 per month. However, Naushad’s first film as an independent music director was only in 1940, Prem Nagar, while his first musically successful film was 1944’s Rattan. In his entire career, Naushad delivered a number of musical gems including the iconic Mughal-E-Azam and Baiju Bawara. The musician worked in several films and among these, he had musical hits – 35 of these had silver jubilee, 12 had golden jubilee and three completed diamond jubilee.   

One of the most interesting anecdotes Naushad loved to share was about his marriage. Even after his first musical hit, his family remained against his choice of career. Naushad often that the band party would play his songs and his father and father-in-law kept criticizing the musician who made those songs. National Herald reported Naushad as quoting his father-in-law, “Such songs are ruining this society. The person who has made this song should be beaten with shoes.”  After working in films for decades, Naushad died on May 5, 2006.

In his vast career, Naushad did a variety of songs across all genres from romantic to devotional. Here is a look at some of his most famous songs: 

1. Ankhiya Mila Ke Jiya Bharma ke Chale Nahi Jana (Rattan 1940)

  2. Nain Lad Jayi Hain (Gunga Jumna, 1961)

  3. Ye Gotedar Lehenga (Dharamkanta, 1982)

Shakeel Badayuni

Shakeel Badayuni  (August 3, 1916 – April 20, 1970) was an Indian Urdu poet, lyricist and songwriter in Hindi films

Early life

Shakeel Badayuni was born in Badayun, Uttar Pradesh.[4] His father, Mohammed Jamaal Ahmed Sokhta Qadiri, wanted him to have a good career, thus he arranged Arabic, Urdu, Persian, and Hindi tuition for Shakeel at home. His inclination towards poetry was not hereditary like other shayars.[5] One of his distant relatives, Zia-ul-Qadiri Badayuni, was a religious shayar. Shakeel was influenced by him and the contemporary environment of Badayun led him to Sher-o-Shayari.[6]When he joined Aligarh Muslim University in 1936, he started participating in inter-college, inter-university mushairas and won frequently. In 1940, he married Salma, who was his distant relative and had been living in a common house with him since childhood, however, the purdah system was vogue in their family and they were not close. After completing his B.A., he moved to Delhi as a supply officer, but continued participating in mushairas, earning fame nation-wide. Those were the days of shayars who wrote about the downtrodden sections of society, their upliftment, the betterment of society and all. But Shakeel had an altogether different taste - his poetry was romantic and close to the heart.[6] Shakeel used to say:

Main Shakeel Dil Ka Hoon Tarjuman

Keh Mohabbaton Ka Hoon Raazdaan

Mujhe Fakhr Hai Meri Shayari

Meri Zindagi Se Juda Nahin

During Aligarh days, Shakeel Badauni started getting lessons of Urdu poetry from Hakim Abdul Waheed 'Ashk' Bijnori.

Career

Shakeel moved to Bombay in 1944 to write songs for films. He met film producer, A.R. Kardar and music composer, Naushad Ali who asked him to sum up his poetic skills in one line. Shakeel wrote, Hum dard Ka Afsana Duniya Ko Suna Denge, Har Dil Main Mohabbat Ki Ek aag Laga Daingay. Naushad immediately signed him for Kardar's film, Dard (1947). The songs of Dard proved to be very successful especially Uma Devi (Tun Tun)'s Afsana Likh Rahi Hoon. Only a few are so lucky that they attain success in their first film, but Shakeel deserved success which started with Dard and continued on over the years.[6]Together, he and Naushad became one of the most sought after composer/lyricist duos in the industry.

 Among the scores they churned out together, are those of Baiju Bawra (1952), Mother India (1957), and Mughal-e-Azam (1960), that stand out. Other films they scored together include Dulari (1949), Shabab (1954), Ganga Jamuna (1961), and Mere Mehboob (1963). Although Shakeel Badayuni worked most extensively with Naushad, he also collaborated with Ravi and Hemant Kumar as well. His lyrics for the song Husnwale Tera Jawab Nahin and Ravi's music both won Filmfare Awards for the hit film Gharana. His other notable film with Ravi is Chaudhvin Ka Chand (1960), while Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam (1962) is his biggest hit with Hemant Kumar. The title song from Chaudhvin Ka Chand, rendered by Mohammed Rafi, won Badayuni the Filmfare Award for Best Lyricist in 1961.

Shakeel penned numbers for around 89 films. In addition, he wrote many popular ghazals which are still sung by vocalists like Pankaj Udhas and others. The Indian government had honoured him with the title Geet Kar-e-Azam.

Association with Naushad

Shakeel shared a close friendship with Naushad, Ravi and Ghulam Mohammed, with whom he enjoyed his life to the fullest. Naushad used Shakeel as the lyricist for his tunes for most of his films for a period of 20 years. Baiju Bawra, which was a milestone in both of their careers, was supposed to go to Kavi Pradeep. Vijay Bhatt, the director of the movie was insistent of using Kavi Pradeep as lyricist since the film was supposed to have many devotional songs. Naushad requested Vijay Bhatt to hear the lyrics written by Shakeel. Vijay Bhatt agreed and the rest was history.[6]

When Shakeel Badayuni was diagnosed with TB , he was put up in a sanitorium in Panchgani for treatment.Naushad knowing that his financial condition was not well took 3 films to him and got him a payment of nearly 10 times more than his normal fees.

Association with Ravi

Shakeel also wrote a substantial chunk of his songs for music director Ravi Sharma. Prominent amongst those were Gharana, Ghunghat and Grihasti as well as Phool Aur Patthar, Chaudhvin Ka Chand and Do Badan.[6]

Association with Hemant Kumar

Shakeel wrote for Hemant Kumar for movies like Bees Saal Baad, Sahib Bibi Aur Gulam, Bin Badal Barsaat.[6]

Association with S.D.Burman

Shakeel penned lyrics for the tunes of S D Burman for movies Kaise Kahoon & Benazir.[6]

Others

C.Ramachandra - Zindagi Aur Maut, Wahan Ke Log.[6] Roshan - Bedaag, Noorjahan.[6]

Personal life

Shakeel Badayuni succumbed to diabetes complications at the age of fifty-three on 20 April 1970,at Bombay Hospital leaving behind his wife, a son and a daughter. His friends Ahmed Zakaria and Rangoonwala formed a trust called Yaad-e-Shakeel after his death and this trust is now the source of some income to his bereaved family.[6]Shakeel loved to play badminton, go on picnics and hunting trips and fly kites with his friends from the industry, Naushad and Mohammed Rafi. Sometimes Johny Walker would join them in kite-flying competitions. Dilip Kumar, writers Wajahat Mirza, Khumar Barabankhvi and Azam Bajatpuri were among Shakeel’s other close friends within the industry.[.[1][2][3]

Remembering yesteryears actress & actor Emraan Hashmi's grandmother Purnima on her 87th birth anniversary.

Born on 2nd March 1932 in Mumbai, Poornima's father Ram Sheshadri Ayangar was a Tamil Brahmin who used to handle accounts at Manmohan Desai's film distributor father Kiku Bhai Desai's office. Poornima's mother was from a Muslim family of Lucknow. At home other than her parents there were 5 daughters (including Poornima) and 1 son. In the 1930's decade, Poornima's eldest sister Shirin had also worked in films like 'Bambai Ki Sethani' (1935), 'Passing Show' (1936), 'Khwab Ki Duniya' (1937), 'State Express' (1938) and 'Bijli' (1939). Shirin was Producer-Director Nanabhai Bhatt's second wife and the famous film maker Mahesh Bhatt is the same Shirin's son and Poornima's nephew.

According to Poornima that era's well known director Raman B. Desai, who was also their neighbor, had offered Poornima 'Radha's' role in his Guajarati film 'Radheshyam'. Poornima was still in school at that time. For the film, her elder sister Shirin, gave her the alias 'Poornima' in place of her real name 'Meher Bano'. The film 'Radheshyam' was released in the year 1948 and at that time Poornima was merely 16 years old. According to Poornima, "My first Hindi film was Kedar Sharma's 'Thes' where I was playing the second lead." Featuring Bharat Bhushan and Shashikala in the main roles, this film was released in the year 1948.

According to the senior film historian Shri Harish Raghuwanshi, in the year 1947 i.e. a year before 'Thes', Poornima had acted in two Hindi films 'Manager' and 'Tum Aur Mai' and in 1948 other than 'Radheshyam' she had also worked in Director Raja Yagnik's Gujrati film 'Saavaki Maa'.

After 'Thes' Poornima saw 2 more releases in 1949 viz. 'Narad Muni', and 'Patanga' where she was seen playing the second lead in both the films. While Raman B.Desai's Gujarati and Hindi bilingual film 'Narad Muni' and Kedar Sharma's 'Thes' could not create much box office magic, Producer Bhagwan Dass Varma's film 'Patanga' proved to be very successful. Composed by C.Ramchandra, 2 songs of this musical hit film 'dil se bhula do tum hamein' and 'o jaane waale tone armanon ki duniya loot li' were filmed on Poornima and after the film's release Poornima's schedule became very hectic.

Having stayed away from acting for 3 years, Poornima decided to return to acting just so that she could stabilize the financial situation at home.

Poornima's husband Bhagwan Dass Varma was a famous Producer-Director of his time who had many successful films like 'Patanga', 'Sagai', 'Badal', 'Aurat', 'Parvat' and 'Pooja' under his banner of 'Varma Films'. Bhagwan Dass Varma passed away in 1962. According to Poornima she acted in almost 200 films in a career spanning 38 years. Her only son worked in Air India. Shaqeela, Saira Bano and Dulari are her close friends. Since Shaqeela and Saira Bano stay close to Poornima's house they keep meeting quite regularly.

3rd August marks the birth day of one of the legends of Indian film music, Shakeel Badayuni, the shayar supreme Geetkar-e-Azam' was born at Badayun in UP in 1916. Shakeel moved to Bombay in 1944, to write songs for films. He met film producer, A.R. Kardar and music composer, Naushad Ali, who asked him to sum up his poetic skills in one line. Shakeel wrote, Hum Dard Ka Afsana Duniya Ko Suna Denge, Har Dil Main Mohabbat Ki Ek Aag Laga Dengey. Naushad immediately retained him for Kardar's film, Dard (1947). The songs of Dard proved to be very successful, especially Uma Devi (Tun Tun)'s Afsana Likh Rahi Hoon. Only a few are so lucky that they attain success in their first film, but Shakeel deserved success which started with Dard and continued on over the years. Together, he and Naushad became one of the most sought after composer/lyricist duos in the industry. Among the scores they churned out together, are those of Deedar (1951), Baiju Bawra (1952), Mother India (1957), and Mughal-e-Azam (1960), that stand out. Other films they scored together include Dulari (1949), Shabab (1954), Ganga Jamuna (1961), and Mere Mehboob (1963). Although Shakeel Badayuni worked most extensively with Naushad, he also collaborated with Ravi and Hemant Kumar as well. His lyrics for the song Husnwale Tera Jawab Nahin and Ravi's music score both won Filmfare Awards for the hit film Gharana. His other notable film with Ravi is Chaudhvin Ka Chand (1960), while Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam (1962) is his biggest hit with Hemant Kumar. The title song from Chaudhvin Ka Chand, rendered by Mohammed Rafi, won Badayuni the Filmfare Award for Best Lyricist in 1961. Shakeel penned numbers for around 89 films. In addition, he wrote many popular ghazals sung by Begum Akhtar, and which are still sung by vocalists like Pankaj Udhas and others. The Indian government had honoured him with the title Geet Kar-e-Azam. Association with Naushad Shakeel shared a close friendship with Naushad, Ravi and Naushad's former assistant, Ghulam Mohammed, with whom he enjoyed his life to the fullest. Naushad used Shakeel as the lyricist for his tunes for most of his films for a period of 24 years. Baiju Bawra, which was a milestone in both of their careers, was supposed to go to Kavi Pradeep. Vijay Bhatt, the director of the movie was insistent on using Kavi Pradeep as lyricist, since the film was supposed to have many devotional songs. Naushad requested Vijay Bhatt to hear the lyrics written by Shakeel. Vijay Bhatt agreed. When Shakeel Badayuni was diagnosed with TB, he was put up in a sanitorium in Panchgani for treatment. Naushad knowing that his financial condition was not well, took 3 films to him, getting the lyrcis written in the sanatorium, and got him a payment of nearly 10 times more than his normal fees. Association with Ravi Shakeel also wrote a substantial chunk of his songs for music director Ravi Sharma. Prominent amongst those were Gharana (1961), Ghunghat,Grahasti (1963), Nartaki (1963), as well as Phool Aur Patthar and Do Badan. Association with Hemant Kumar Shakeel wrote for Hemant Kumar for movies like Bees Saal Baad, Sahib Bibi Aur Gulam, Bin Badal Barsaat. Association with S.D.Burman Shakeel penned lyrics for the tunes of S D Burman for movies Kaise Kahoon & Benazir. Others C.Ramachandra – Zindagi Aur Maut, Wahan Ke Log. Roshan – Bedaag, Noorjahan. There is so much that can be written about him, but words will not suffice. At last all we can say is “ये झिंदगी के मेले, दुनिया में कम ना होंगे....अफसोस हम न होंगे" Like बॉलीवुड डायरेक्ट Bollywoodirect
