Lag jaa gale ke phir yeh ( Woh Kaun Thi?, 1964): Woh Kaun Thi? was one of the films (the others were Anpadh and Mausam) for which Madan Mohan was nominated for the Filmfare Best Music Director Award-and, at least as far as Woh Kaun Thi? is concerned, in my opinion, he should have won. These are, as always, from pre-70s films that I’ve seen, and no two songs are from the same film. In memory of Madan Mohan, therefore, and to commemorate what would have been his 90 th birthday had he lived: a list of ten of my favourite Madan Mohan songs. This was a man vastly underrated during his lifetime, a man with a talent few possessed. This was the man who gave Hindi cinema some of its finest and most enduring songs, both ghazals and not.

This was the man whose compositions were used in a film made almost 30 years after his death ( Veer-Zaara, 2004). Yet, this was the man whom Lata Mangeshkar named ‘ Ghazalon ka Shahzaada’. While he was nominated for the Filmfare Best Music Director Award several times, he never won it (the only award he won was at the fag end of his career, the National Award for the score of Dastak, 1970). Madan Mohan was to go on to compose songs for dozens of films over the next 25 years, when he died in 1975 at the far-too-young age of 51. The first film for which he provided the score, at the age of 26, was Aankhen (1950). Madan Mohan too moved to Bombay, where he finished school and eventually joined the army-only to finally leave soldiering to become a music director. His parents went on to Bombay, where his father, Rai Bahadur Chunilal, entered the cinema industry: as a partner at Bombay Talkies Studio, and then at Filmistan Studio. An oversight, and one for which I have no explanation to offer: just reparation.īorn Madan Mohan Kohli in Erbil (Iraqi Kurdistan) on June 25, 1924, the young Madan Mohan returned with his family to their home town of Chakwal (in Punjab) when he was 8 years old.
