Hello Friends,

Welcome Sir,

We are very happy and fortunate to have you here with us.
First tell our Pranaam to Panditji ....

....we are from comparitvely much younger aga group and we hope that Panditji would share with us his experience in the music industry during 40s and 50s.

I had not heard much of Panditji's except those super hit songs... Khamosh Nigahen.... and then the famous qwali of barsaat ki raat and ...Manmohan Man main ho tumhi ....only untill Dharamvir paaji uploaded those rare beautiful punjabi songs from the 1941release punjabi movieGowandi..

Would like to upload that great gazal sung by panditji in his young voice:

gham dil nal lagaa rakhiye
a cheez bagaani ai
yaran da suneda hai
sajna di nishani ai

courtsy Dharamvir pa

First of all, I want to give you and Dharamvirji my heartfelt thanks for this gift! My father and I have had a quest to try and find his old recordings. I was informed of this forum and we are very fortunate to have you all here. It is a fulfilling of my dream (personally) to hear these long forgotten and rare gems. After putting numerous posts on RMIM the result was luke warm although not completely fruitless. But still a large part of his songs from Lahore era are missing. If you have more of these please upload. I never heard the actual Gowandi songs although I have accompanied my father on tabla when he would sing them on video or in a concert.

It is my plan to have my father spend a few minutes everyday writing something special that I can post for you all. If you have anything is particular to ask him then let me know. I find that even though he likes to speak of his experiences of yesteryears it drains him if it goes on for too long

I am so excited about meeting you all here that I wish there was a way to get everyone together in one place sometime in the future to have you meet him personally. But, after seeing how far and wide the members are dispersed this can be a daunting task! But, then again, it could happen

I am also trying to get him to talk on video re. his life and times in the Indian music industry. It is so much fun to speak with him. Just a simple question can trigger some of the most interesting memories and invaribly the information is intriguing and filled with insight.

Kind regards,
Ashwin Batish
