Anyone growing up in India in the 1950s and 1960s, in fact, anyone living in India even today would most certainly have heard one or more of "Shailendra’s" songs. Writer of numerous hits, many of his songs have become anthems of modern India. ‘Awara hoon’ and ‘Mera jooota hai Japani’ are perhaps the most recognizable Hindi songs of all time, not just in India, but the world over. His name is associated with most of the big hits of the of the ‘50s and the ‘60s.
His easy to understand, catchy and folksy lyrics made Shailendra an instant success in Himdi film industry, from his very first film song ‘Barsaat mein humse mile tum’. Films and film music were the only pan Indian cultural thread then.
Today we sync with Shailendra as we get the two elements: poetry and singing into harmony...
Catch Sur Dhanuk Dhun in conversation with Manoj Shailendra, Amla Shailendra Mazumdar and Dinesh Shailendra!!!
