i am 60 and when i was in my teenage my uncle told me that our english professor used to start our class 10 min before the starting time and leave the class 5 min earlier to listen KL Saigal song from radio celone.
Jub dil hi toot gaya, hum ji ke kya karain ge.....this song is labeled with KL Saigal. I am 65, still I like to listen this song, going back into the past in the Era of Radio Ceylon...past 📻 radio program when TV was in the initial stage and was not in Indian Sub Continent. Thanks
I came to know from my father, about this versatile singer and actor of all time. My father who born in the year 1934 at a place called " Mahanirbhan Road, in south Calcutta. K. L. Saighal used to stay at this particular place so, in this context the Legend K.L.Saighal was a neighbour. K.L.Saighal's wife was handicap ( used to move with the help of a wheelchair). My father was blessed by this legend singer and actor of all time.
My father was a huge fan of KL Saigal, he use to sing all his famous songs . My father is no more, but after seeing this video you hv refreshed my dad’s memories. I wish I could hv seen this video with him.
Thanks for remembering a great singer-actor with golden voice. My father was a great fan of him and would put on radio-ceylon on 0755 and switch off moment song finished. He was fond of drinking and singing like his idol whose picture used to hang on the wall of each house of some odd 27 we shifted. Fulfilling his desire one day he bought HMV player and LPs of KL SEHGAL SAHEB. Now every weekend father would drink along songs well into midnight. As children we would curse our stars for long sessions of songs of times bygone, unaware of imbibing them into our singing. My favorite is the unparalleled - " Suno suno he Krishna...." 🙏
I. Still. Remember.Mr. Kl sehgal Iam 73. Now Last song. Always Used to be. Sung by. Mr. K l sehgal K l sehgal Ji And. Ch. atma had lot in common with Sehgal. Sahib I hope both. Are resting in peace I remember.i had. Purchased. About. 7 audio. Cassettes when I was living in. 🇩🇪
In my view... If anyone practice Saigal Sahab's song and reach 25 percent of his murkees, style..... He can sing anything, any singer's songs comfortably. MukeshJi, Kishore Da, Lata ji.... and many more have treated him as a Guru. 🙏
Thank you for presenting this biopic of the great singer/actor. I remember religiously listening to Radio Ceylon at 7:57 am every day for the one K. L. Saigal song, during my college days in the 1960's. I think Shri Gopal Sharma was the presenter. I uploaded some Saigal songs on to TH-cam about 10 years ago, only those for which video clips were not available. It is a pity that many great old movies, such as Puran Bhagat, are lost forever.
I too remember my father, who was a crazy fan of K L Saigal, he used to wait for 7.57 am Radio Ceylon . Also I remember, he had all these songs recorded in his exclusive Cassette of Saigal Sahab
in my present age of 60+ I still love to listen to these masterpieces of him. 1. gham diey mustaqil, kitna nazuk tha dil ye na jana, hai hai ye zalim zamana 2. Ay katib e taqdeer mujhey itna bata de kun mujh se khafa he tu kia mein ne kia hey. . . . And what to talk of radio celon, I still miss BINACA GEET MALA of Wednesday evening in 1970s.
I am 66 yrs., I enjoy listening to Shri K L Saigal Ji's songs. Apart from the songs he sang in films there are a lot of non filmi songs sung by him, especially gazals written by Ghalib, Seemab Akbarabadi to name a few. Many of the gazals have very profound meanings which are taken to new heights with Shri Saigal's immortal voice.
Kundan Lal saigal was guruji Of kishore kumar my favourite singer.Kishore ji unko apna guru mante the .Lekin aaj mein unke bare mein aap se jana.Bahut accha laga.
My late father was big fan of K L SAIGAL we are from HYDERABAD SINDH PAKISTAN He expired in 2013 He used to sit with me inn front of COMPUTERS and asked me to play his favourite songs of saigal saab from.u tube and i still remember those days He was genious indeed
My parents too. They used to turn on Radio Ceylon at 7:30am to listen to vintage songs and kept it on till after 8:00am, after K L Saigal’s song. As a kid, I didn’t appreciate K L Saigal and didn’t understand why they liked this singer who sang with a drawl. My mother explained to me why she liked him: because unlike present day singers, he didn’t require an accompaniment and that he was a team of one, who wrote, directed, and sang his own songs. Over time, I came to appreciate his singing and his drawl. He sounds like a male version of Noor Jehan. But don’t misunderstand me, I didn’t like most of his songs because they sounded drunk. My favorite Saigal songs are, “Jab dil hi toot gaya, hum ji ke kya karenge“, “Gam diye mustaffil, kitna naazuk hai dil”, “Baabul mora”. BTW, Rahoul, you sing Saigal very well. It is very sad that he died at the age at the age of 44.
Thank you for the info on Saigal Saab.🙏 He belonged to my parents and grand parents generation. But I remember getting mesmerised by his songs in my childhood of 60s n 70s. There was a 15 minute programme of Saigal songs every morning in Vivid Bharati which would drag me to the radio wherever I was. I was convinced then - and even now - that there never was and never will be a soulful singer like him.
Rightly said, all-time superstar, from childhood have been listening to Radio Ceylon, and only after listening to the last song of KL Saigal, we used to start the daily chores. My favourite is Do Naina Matware, Diya jisne dil and ofcourse diya jalao. आभारी राहूल 🙏🙏🙏🙏
My story on K L Saigal is bit long but have a very special place in my heart 💖 He was my father’s favourite singer and my dad’s favourite songs were Babul Mora and Nain heen ko raah dekha Prabhu. KL Saigal used to visit Kala Hanuman temple in Kandivali regularly which was built by my grandfather, & in his teens my father lived next to the temple. Dad told that Saigal Jee would be so drunk that would be sit on the steps of the temple and it was a really small temple so late night no one would be there. Dad was a young boy so would go to him and he would ask my dad; Kya naam hein tera baccha? Gana sunega? Why would you not like personal performance. Saigal Jee would sing few and then go in his car. This happened few times so dad always cherished it and sang these songs to us. 🤗🤗
Thanks a lot Rahoul Sahab for sharing the information to the current world about the All time great music maestro, KL Saigal Sahab. His first Pvt recorded songs were in 1929 about which you mentioned ( source - Pran Neville's book). There are very many songs of KLS which are simply out of the world. such as Jeevan Bhi Madhur naa baaje in Street Singer. The song of trio - K.C.Dey, Uma Shashi & KLS ( one version) & other one with the great Pankaj Mallick, Uma Shashi, KLS .. Duniya Rang Rangili Baba (nonpareil song), Avsar Beeto Jaat Praani, etc. His Ghazals were also excellent. I thank my father ( H.Narayanan) to have made me familiar with the songs of this all time great singer. We will fail if we don't mention about the great musician, Raichand Boral. What a music he used to give to KLS's songs
Rahoul Ji you sing very well-it is not easy to sing Saigal! I first heard Saigal as my father used to play LP records (Vinyl) of his. Apart from the usual hits of his, I used to love a Bhajan of his whose words are 'Andhe Kee Laathi Tu Hi Hay........ Tu Hi Jeevan Ujiyaara Hay...... I also love 'Do Naina Matware Teharey' and 'Main Kya Jaanu Kya Jaadu Hai'-please note how Saigal sings Kya-so beautiful and soul touching. Many singers like Mukesh and even Jagjit Singh used to sing like Saigal in the very early days. And the marvel was Saigal very got formal training from any one Ustaad. What a man!
I am a great fan of Kundan Lal Saigal Sahab's song from the age of 6, listening to songs played by my father on the Gramaphone. There are many favourite songs of mine of his songs, such as Bhaj toh bhav se , jeevan bhi na madhur baje, avsar beeto jaat praani.... Unmatched singer accompanied by great musicians of 1930s, 1940s and all time great music director, RC Boral
Wow, what a superb narrative! I have loved K L Saigal’s songs since the 1950’s, and have often sung them (though learned incompletely) to myself. Now, though in my eighties, I feel like learning some of them thoroughly and singing them before others too! Thank you Rahoulji, thank you so much!
Great to hear these memoIrs .... I remember my late father was an ardent fan of this legendary singer K L Saigal,& used to sing his songs.... (My father was a very good singer & had a sharp sense of music,) but I, as a young little bubbly & chirpy girl did not quite like Saigal sab's nasal tone & the way he used to pronounce the words... But now, after learning music for so many years, I have understood the depth of his voice ... There are many songs that I like & love to hear over & over, again & again, but my personal favourite is this one, as it reminds me of my darling dad & his deep voice .... " Sapt surana teen gram, gavo sab gunijan, ikkis murchhana, baan taan ko milao." Sorry, that was a pretty long comment ...🙏🙏🙏... Loved your story ...
@@70mmwithRahoul O yes, one more personal favourite is ," मैं क्या जानूं क्या जादू है " How I wish I could humm it ...😊😊😊 ... Thanks for your kind words ... 🙏💐😊
Thanks for nice coverage of our family favourite Saigal 's biography. Born in 1938 at Madras and brought up at Salem, not knowing Hindi or Urdu, it is a wonder how we became fan of this legend !!. My fovourite song of KL Saigal is. Radhe Rani...also..Mai kya jaanu...but best ..Bigad thaattu se Kaam Bane kya..of Street singer. But how to say which is the best! ? Nain Heen ko. Bhajan ??
Thanks a million for sharing, I remember from Sri Lanka old songs were played Didn' t miss it and one song was of K.L Saigal was played, yes good old day, music and songs were the only entertainment. Miss all those days. 😊
"Mein kya jaanu kya Jadoo hai" from the movie Aaina is my favourite.....Indeed your doing a great work by giving us insights about the legends of India.... Keep going...
Me kya jaanu kyaaa Jadu hai.....15 ya 16 saal ke bache ke mukh se DD TV par 90s ke dasak me suna aur agle din Saigal Saab ka. poora collection khareda. Tab 40 ka tha aaj. 72 years ka hoon. Abhi bhi favourite hain Ab credit kis ko doon vo 16 saal ke bache ko ya Saigal sahib ko
"Jab dil hi toot gaya" this song was my grand father's favourite. I heard in my childhood. Sir make a video on Kavi Pradeep please. "chal musafir chal yahan koi nahi tera".
Great information and presentation! Saigal Saab was an institution by himself . His every song is a gem 💎. He will always be remembered in our heart 💓 for ever because he has given us invaluable music and uncopieable music / songs !
Amazing story on K.L.Saigal the superstar of Kolkata hindi film industry. Got to know a lot of info about him in your video. Superb video and fantastic narration 👍🏽👍🏽👌🏽👌🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Rahoul Sahab-- first I would like to express my recognition that you are perhaps the finest speaker I have come across so far on YT-- in so many respects... My most favourite song of KL Saigal is: Preet mein hai jeevan jokhon (Dushman).
Thanks for providing us superb information about the great k. L. Saigal ji. You are absolutely right about last song always played by Radio Cylon on7. 30 to 8 old songs program of the great saigal ji. I was hearing this program in my childhood.
रेडियो सीलोन द्वारा "पुरानी फिल्मों का संगीत" प्रोग्राम में सहगल साहब का गाना एक नियत समय पर शायद 1950 के दशक से सुनाने के लिए रेडियो सिलोन को गिनीज बुक ऑफ वर्ल्ड रिकॉर्ड्स में शामिल होना चाहिए। किसी एक गायक का गाना वर्षो से एक नियत समय पर सुनाना अदभुत और गौरवशाली परम्परा है। दुनिया में शायद ही किसी कलाकार को यह सम्मान मिला हो। यदि कोई इस तथ्य को गिनीज बुक ऑफ वर्ल्ड रिकॉर्ड्स में शामिल करवा दे तो सहगल प्रशंसकों की कई पीढ़ियां उस महानुभाव को साधुवाद देकर कृतार्थ होंगी।
In 1950's l used to wait for Sahgals' song with great excitement in Lahore from radio cylon(l used to take radio under my Lehaf to listen 🎶) Prof.Dr Nasir Fazal Cambridge USA
When we were kids we heard him at noon on the radio in Lahore 1950s. He truly was a great singer we always thought he was from Lahore. Very informative video and so well spoken. Thank you sir

What a magic narration, I like it very much, k. L. Saigal is milstone in indian musical history. Rahul Allah, God. Bhagwaan. Vaheguru. Bless you. Mumbai.
Saigal sahaab is still king.I love all his songs Babul morah mera favourite song,jab dil hi tut gaya another song, great bengali songs jakhon robona ami,ekhoni uthibe Chand,nai ba ghumale priyo,lots of songs..I love him.
Yet another feather in your cap Rahulji for the video on divine voice which directly run through the soul. Whom music lovers call n remember as Immortal K.L.SAIGAL and he is. Verily tough to choose the one out of gems. But to honour your so fondly made appeal here it is "Gham diye mushtqil kitna nazuk hai dil....."
सायगल साहब वो गायक हे जिसको रफी साहब, किशोर जी, मुकेश जी, लता जी Follow करते थे।ओर इन चारों गायक विना संगीत जगत अधुरा।आज संगीत जगत जाहा पर पहुंचा इन चारों के वजह से। GREAT SAIGAL SAHAB🙏🙏
Hello Rahoul, I came to this episode after clicking on the link you provided on your latest episode. Just wanted to compliment you on your ability to create marvellous, well-researched videos on film personalities of yesteryears, your information is always accurate, respectful, entertaining and interesting. This was a great episode! You have great singing voice too, it particularly suited Sehgal saab’s voice (and that’s what prompted me to write to you today - though we know you’re a great fan of Kishore Kumar’s music).. Thanks Rahoul, please keep it up! 😇😊
I would like to narrate a very interesting story from my life though I don't remember this story as I was barely 3/4 years old then in 1943 when my father was posted as a junior Judge in Giridih then in Bihar now in Jharkhand and it so happened that he was invited at Tea as he was visiting Giridih at some Industrialist's invitation He came and started singing a song I was in my father's lap and I was watching him singing intently when he finished he enquired my father about my name and my father told Kundan which was my nickname Saighal sahib just took me in his lap and keeping his hand over my head told my father that Kundan will sing one day.Though I don't remember this but I feel proud and blessed that the greatest singer of our generation had blessed me ofcourse I could not become a famous singer but singing is my passion and I have recorded more than 200 of my songs on Starmaker let me tell you that I got my love n life partner because of singing I live in Mumbai now I'm Ashok Vidyarthi
One of my favourite songs by K L Saigal is " soja Raj Kumari soja " Film Zindagi. And I feel so previleged to have the original 78 rpm record in my collection 🙏🙏 !!
" जब दिल ही टूट गया " एवं " बाबूल मोरा नैहर छूटो जाए " दोनों गाने मुझे बहुत पसंद आते हैं वैसे मैं सहगल साहब की एल पी कई दफा सुनता रहा हूं। एक बहुत पुराने गायक जगमोहन जी के विषय में जानकारी दें तो खुशी होगी।उनका गाया गीत "तुमसे तुम्हारे गांव में पहले मिलन की छांव में " बेहतरीन गीत के साथ उनके कई गीत बेहद कर्णप्रिय हैं मुझे लगता है इनकी गायकी में स्पष्टता बेहतरीन है जिसकी तुलना नहीं की जा सकती।
Being born in the 90s,I was not familiar with the name KL Saigal...Mere list of singers mein, Talaat Muhammad ji sabse "purane zamane" k singer hain jinke gaane maine suney hain nd he is one of my favrtes. But today,thanx to ur video, I got to know about dis legend nd I'll definitely search for his songs. Thank you Sir.. your way of presentation is unique and refreshing. I love your videos
Mere pita ji bhi bahut bekarar rahte the 7.57 am KL Saigal Sahab ke Gaane sunneney ke liye. Mai bhi bahut pasand karta hoon Kundan Lal Saigal Sahab ke Gaano ko !!

मेरा फेवरिट गाना 'एक बंगला बने न्यारा है.. ये गाना चरन चरन पन उंचे सूरमे गाया है यह अलगपन है। मुझे गानेके सूरके बारेमे कोईभी ग्यान नही, फिरभी उनके गानेका आजभी शौकीन हूँ। वैसे सब गाने अच्छे हैं. उसमे बाबुल मोरा यह गानाभी बहोत अच्छा है। मै टाटा प्रेसमे बाईंडर की नौकरी करता था.। एक दिन किस्मत सिनेमाके सामनेसे गुजरते वक्त रेडियो सिलोन पर भूले बिसरे गात का कार्यक्रम एक हॉटेल के रेडियो पर सुना। वह गाने अलग टाईपके लगे। रोज दिन पालीके आकर हॉटेल के बाहर खडा होकर गाने सुनता रहा। आखरी गाना सैगल साहेब का था. उनकी दर्दभरी आवाज मेरे दिल में ऐसी छा गई की मै आजदक उनके गाने सुनता हूं.।

भगवान शिव का आशीर्वाद मिला सहगल साहब को। फिर कड़ी मेहनत से सब कुछ प्राप्त किया। कुन्दन लाल सहगल बहुत भाग्यशाली रहे जो उन्हें से रविन्द्र नाथ टैगोर जी का प्यार और साथ मिला। जीवन प्यार मिल जाए,तो जिंदगी के मायने बदल जाते। अगर न मिले तो जिंदगी बेमतलब की हो जाती है शयद सहगल साहब के कुछ हुआ होगा
JAB DIL HI TOOT GAYA... whenever I hear this song..REALLY mera DIL TOOT jatha hai.. a heart touching and soul-weeping song. K.L.SAIGHAL SAB is my most favorite singer. MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE AND/OR RETURN IF POSSIBLE (R.I.P). Thank you for your informing his life history and vedio. 💐🙏💐🇹🇯💐

Rahoul Ji you sing very well-it is not easy to sing Saigal! I first heard Saigal as my father used to play LP records (Vinyl) of his. Apart from the usual hits of his, I used to love a Bhajan of his whose words are 'Andhe Kee Laathi Tu Hi Hay........ Tu Hi Jeevan Ujiyaara Hay...... I also love 'Do Naina Matware Teharey' and 'Main Kya Jaanu Kya Jaadu Hai'-please note how Saigal sings Kya-so beautiful and soul touching. Many singers like Mukesh and even Jagjit Singh used to sing like Saigal in the very early days. And the marvel was Saigal very got formal training from any one Ustaad. What a man!
Thank you / glad you enjoyed watching the video.
His first recorded song, "Joolna jhulao" is extremely nice song,a classical one, Composed in Raag 'Dev Gandhar'.
Ok … thanks for watching the video and commenting.
I am a great fan of Kundan Lal Saigal Sahab's song from the age of 6, listening to songs played by my father on the Gramaphone. There are many favourite songs of mine of his songs, such as Bhaj toh bhav se , jeevan bhi na madhur baje, avsar beeto jaat praani.... Unmatched singer accompanied by great musicians of 1930s, 1940s and all time great music director, RC Boral
Jab Dil hi toot Gaya....my favorite, I am from Kerala. You sing so well...!!
Thanks Siby....
Wow, what a superb narrative! I have loved K L Saigal’s songs since the 1950’s, and have often sung them (though learned incompletely) to myself. Now, though in my eighties, I feel like learning some of them thoroughly and singing them before others too! Thank you Rahoulji, thank you so much!
Jab dilhi tuut gaya sirji.heartly touch voice🌹❤️👌🏻
Great to hear these memoIrs .... I remember my late father was an ardent fan of this legendary singer K L Saigal,& used to sing his songs.... (My father was a very good singer & had a sharp sense of music,) but I, as a young little bubbly & chirpy girl did not quite like Saigal sab's nasal tone & the way he used to pronounce the words... But now, after learning music for so many years, I have understood the depth of his voice ... There are many songs that I like & love to hear over & over, again & again, but my personal favourite is this one, as it reminds me of my darling dad & his deep voice .... " Sapt surana teen gram, gavo sab gunijan, ikkis murchhana, baan taan ko milao." Sorry, that was a pretty long comment ...🙏🙏🙏... Loved your story ...
Thank you Anuradha ... love reading your messages
@@70mmwithRahoul O yes, one more personal favourite is ," मैं क्या जानूं क्या जादू है " How I wish I could humm it ...😊😊😊 ... Thanks for your kind words ... 🙏💐😊
K l saigal ka sub songs Muze pasand hai 👌🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
My favourite song of kL sehgal is gham diye mustaqil kitna nazuk hai dil
Thanks for nice coverage of our family favourite Saigal 's biography. Born in 1938 at Madras and brought up at Salem, not knowing Hindi or Urdu, it is a wonder how we became fan of this legend !!. My fovourite song of KL Saigal is. Radhe Rani...also..Mai kya jaanu...but best ..Bigad thaattu se Kaam Bane kya..of Street singer. But how to say which is the best! ? Nain Heen ko. Bhajan ??
Thanks a million for sharing, I remember from Sri Lanka old songs were played Didn' t miss it and one song was of K.L Saigal was played, yes good old day, music and songs were the only entertainment. Miss all those days. 😊
"Mein kya jaanu kya Jadoo hai" from the movie Aaina is my favourite.....Indeed your doing a great work by giving us insights about the legends of India.... Keep going...
Thanks 🙏
Me kya jaanu kyaaa Jadu hai.....15 ya 16 saal ke bache ke mukh se DD TV par 90s ke dasak me suna aur agle din Saigal Saab ka. poora collection khareda. Tab 40 ka tha aaj. 72 years ka hoon. Abhi bhi favourite hain
Ab credit kis ko doon vo 16 saal ke bache ko ya Saigal sahib ko
"Jab dil hi toot gaya" this song was my grand father's favourite. I heard in my childhood.
Sir make a video on Kavi Pradeep please. "chal musafir chal yahan koi nahi tera".
👍
Great information and presentation!
Saigal Saab was an institution by himself .
His every song is a gem 💎. He will always be remembered in our heart 💓 for ever because he has given us invaluable music and uncopieable music / songs !
True👍
@@70mmwithRahoulplease kishore kumar ji par bhi biography video banaiye
Amazing story on K.L.Saigal the superstar of Kolkata hindi film industry. Got to know a lot of info about him in your video. Superb video and fantastic narration 👍🏽👍🏽👌🏽👌🏽👏🏽👏🏽
My all time favorite song of Saigal is gam diye mushtkil kitna najuk hai dil from Sahjaha
Brilliant! You are a genius and good singer to boot!
Thank you so much 🙏
Rahoul Sahab-- first I would like to express my recognition that you are perhaps the finest speaker I have come across so far on YT-- in so many respects...
My most favourite song of KL Saigal is: Preet mein hai jeevan jokhon (Dushman).
Thank you so much for the kind words. I’m happy you liked the video 👍
Thanks for providing us superb information about the great k. L. Saigal ji. You are absolutely right about last song always played by Radio Cylon on7. 30 to 8 old songs program of the great saigal ji. I was hearing this program in my childhood.
welcome Kiran
One of my favourite songs by KL Saigal is " soja Raj Kumari Soja " Film Zindagi. And I feel so proud to have the original 78 rpm in my collection !!
wow... awesome
My mother's favourite was "jab dil hi toot gya", and mine is "me kya janun kya jadu he".
रेडियो सीलोन द्वारा "पुरानी फिल्मों का संगीत" प्रोग्राम में सहगल साहब का गाना एक नियत समय पर शायद 1950 के दशक से सुनाने के लिए रेडियो सिलोन को गिनीज बुक ऑफ वर्ल्ड रिकॉर्ड्स में शामिल होना चाहिए। किसी एक गायक का गाना वर्षो से एक नियत समय पर सुनाना अदभुत और गौरवशाली परम्परा है। दुनिया में शायद ही किसी कलाकार को यह सम्मान मिला हो। यदि
कोई इस तथ्य को गिनीज बुक ऑफ वर्ल्ड रिकॉर्ड्स में शामिल करवा दे तो सहगल प्रशंसकों की कई पीढ़ियां उस महानुभाव को साधुवाद देकर कृतार्थ होंगी।
Very good information about kL Sehgal a very talented singer and actor bohot jaldi chale gaye
In 1950's l used to wait for Sahgals' song with great excitement in Lahore from radio cylon(l used to take radio under my Lehaf to listen 🎶)
Prof.Dr Nasir Fazal Cambridge USA
My 3 favourite songs:
1:Mandve talay green k do phool Khil rhy hain
2:jab dil he toot Gaya
3:ae Katib-taqdeer
Indeed he was a superstar, one lakh per film those days equals to how many crores today, you can tell. He was highest paid singer actor of those days.
True 😊
I heard he used to drink a costly western whiskey Rs.26. may be it is valued nearly RS.5000/- now.

today i crossed 79. Saigal always facinates me with his depth
When we were kids we heard him at noon on the radio in Lahore 1950s.
He truly was a great singer we always thought he was from Lahore. Very informative video and so well spoken. Thank you sir
Thanks for listening

Jab dil hi toot gaya
Yet another feather in your cap Rahulji for the video on divine voice which directly run through the soul. Whom music lovers call n remember as Immortal K.L.SAIGAL and he is. Verily tough to choose the one out of gems. But to honour your so fondly made appeal here it is "Gham diye mushtqil kitna nazuk hai dil....."
Thanks Jãvęd 👍
सायगल साहब वो गायक हे जिसको रफी साहब, किशोर जी, मुकेश जी, लता जी Follow करते थे।ओर इन चारों गायक विना संगीत जगत अधुरा।आज संगीत जगत जाहा पर पहुंचा इन चारों के वजह से। GREAT SAIGAL SAHAB🙏🙏

“Soja rajakumari soja” - my dad used to sing this song for me almost my entire childhood to put me to sleep
I am 74 yearsnow and brought up in Punjab after Partition. The best 👌 song Do Naina Matvare Tehare Hum Par jurm Kare..karen. Kash woh sharB chod dete.
Hello Rahoul,
I came to this episode after clicking on the link you provided on your latest episode. Just wanted to compliment you on your ability to create marvellous, well-researched videos on film personalities of yesteryears, your information is always accurate, respectful, entertaining and interesting. This was a great episode!
You have great singing voice too, it particularly suited Sehgal saab’s voice (and that’s what prompted me to write to you today - though we know you’re a great fan of Kishore Kumar’s music)..
Thanks Rahoul, please keep it up!
😇😊
Thank you Amrita 👍
I would like to narrate a very interesting story from my life though I don't remember this story as I was barely 3/4 years old then in 1943 when my father was posted as a junior Judge in Giridih then in Bihar now in Jharkhand and it so happened that he was invited at Tea as he was visiting Giridih at some Industrialist's invitation He came and started singing a song I was in my father's lap and I was watching him singing intently when he finished he enquired my father about my name and my father told Kundan which was my nickname Saighal sahib just took me in his lap and keeping his hand over my head told my father that Kundan will sing one day.Though I don't remember this but I feel proud and blessed that the greatest singer of our generation had blessed me ofcourse I could not become a famous singer but singing is my passion and I have recorded more than 200 of my songs on Starmaker let me tell you that I got my love n life partner because of singing I live in Mumbai now I'm Ashok Vidyarthi
One of my favourite songs by K L Saigal is " soja Raj Kumari soja " Film Zindagi. And I feel so previleged to have the original 78 rpm record in my collection 🙏🙏 !!
I still remember radio Ceylon used to play last song from that program in the early morning.
" जब दिल ही टूट गया " एवं " बाबूल मोरा नैहर छूटो जाए " दोनों गाने मुझे बहुत पसंद आते हैं वैसे मैं सहगल साहब की एल पी कई दफा सुनता रहा हूं।
एक बहुत पुराने गायक जगमोहन जी के विषय में जानकारी दें तो खुशी होगी।उनका गाया गीत "तुमसे तुम्हारे गांव में पहले मिलन की छांव में " बेहतरीन गीत के साथ उनके कई गीत बेहद कर्णप्रिय हैं मुझे लगता है इनकी गायकी में स्पष्टता बेहतरीन है जिसकी तुलना नहीं की जा सकती।
Being born in the 90s,I was not familiar with the name KL Saigal...Mere list of singers mein, Talaat Muhammad ji sabse "purane zamane" k singer hain jinke gaane maine suney hain nd he is one of my favrtes. But today,thanx to ur video, I got to know about dis legend nd I'll definitely search for his songs. Thank you Sir.. your way of presentation is unique and refreshing. I love your videos
Thanks Gloria 👍
Mere pita ji bhi bahut bekarar rahte the 7.57 am KL Saigal Sahab ke Gaane sunneney ke liye. Mai bhi bahut pasand karta hoon Kundan Lal Saigal Sahab ke Gaano ko !!

Dear Naheed…. Tumhara message Padhkar bahut acha laga 👍
@@70mmwithRahoul really thankful sir
My khatarnak favourite songs of k.l saigal infact it is गझल शामा का jalna hai ya sojse parwana hai
मेरा फेवरिट गाना 'एक बंगला बने न्यारा है.. ये गाना चरन चरन पन उंचे सूरमे गाया है यह अलगपन है। मुझे गानेके सूरके बारेमे कोईभी ग्यान नही, फिरभी उनके गानेका आजभी शौकीन हूँ। वैसे सब गाने अच्छे हैं. उसमे बाबुल मोरा यह गानाभी बहोत अच्छा
है। मै टाटा प्रेसमे बाईंडर की नौकरी करता था.। एक दिन किस्मत सिनेमाके सामनेसे गुजरते वक्त रेडियो सिलोन पर भूले बिसरे गात का कार्यक्रम एक हॉटेल के रेडियो पर सुना। वह गाने अलग टाईपके लगे। रोज दिन पालीके आकर हॉटेल के बाहर खडा होकर गाने सुनता रहा। आखरी गाना सैगल साहेब का था. उनकी दर्दभरी आवाज मेरे दिल में ऐसी छा गई की मै आजदक उनके गाने सुनता हूं.।
Really informative and amazing video on the amazing K L Saigal. My fav song is Balam aao baso moreh munn mein
Ok
मेरा प्रिय गाना है "करूं क्या आस निराश भई"और "बाबुल मोरा"!सच में मैं भी रेडियो सीलोन सहगल साहब के गाने के लिए ही सुनता था।
Jab dil hi toot, my favourite also , thanks

भगवान शिव का आशीर्वाद मिला सहगल साहब को। फिर कड़ी मेहनत से सब कुछ प्राप्त किया। कुन्दन लाल सहगल बहुत भाग्यशाली रहे जो उन्हें से
रविन्द्र नाथ टैगोर जी का प्यार और साथ मिला। जीवन प्यार मिल जाए,तो जिंदगी के मायने बदल जाते। अगर न मिले तो जिंदगी बेमतलब की हो जाती है शयद सहगल साहब के कुछ हुआ होगा
JAB DIL HI TOOT GAYA... whenever I hear this song..REALLY mera DIL TOOT jatha hai.. a heart touching and soul-weeping song. K.L.SAIGHAL SAB is my most favorite singer. MAY HIS SOUL REST IN PEACE AND/OR RETURN IF POSSIBLE (R.I.P).
Thank you for your informing his life history and vedio.
