My 86 year old mom’s favourite singer. She still listens to TM on her transistor and Spotify. Whatever Sahar Zaman said, I have heard from mom many times over the years… Reg Anil Biswas on his voice… etc.
I hear TM when I am stuck in Bombay traffic. Soothing.
A Gentleman And A Fantastic Singer, Always Well Dressed And Soft Spoken Person
Talat Mahmood, great singer n also great human being, we the music lovers, will miss forever! May Allah bless him!
Fascinating talk about a legend who is no longer physically present, but is very much alive in our hearts❤
34:58 He was my father's first or second cousin.He lived at my house in Calcutta when I was a baby.My mother said she teased him about something .My father Prof.Fakhruddin was a world famous busy scientist. My house was full of his records.My younger brother Khalid was close to his son.He named his son after my younger brother with my mother's permission. Later my brother helped put up a concert in Talat Mehmood with his son Khalid. My brother was ICSC ,AMU engineering college topper.He got a job in L&T.Then as a Cheif engineer Medina Electric Supply. My brother died while swimming in Yambu.
Thank you for your story
Interesting conversation, so cordial so friendly, glad to c together Tina Das n Zaman ! Best wishes
My fav is raat nay kiya kiya...
Wonderful interview, Tina and Zaman! The title should be changed to have Talat Mahmood at the beginning.
His one of the best Ghazal of Majaz singing :
اے غم دل کیا کروں، وحشت دل کیا کروں۔۔۔
" انصاف کی ڈگر پہ بچو دکھاو چل کے
یہ دیش ھے تمہارا نیتا تمہیں ھو کل کے "
یہ صحیح شعر ھے نغمہ کا۔
Talat was fantastic, but Rafi and Dilip were made for each other. Who sang the sad songs of Jugnu, Amar, Deedar, Udan Khatola, Madhumati.
oh man. I also thought talat mehmood was bengali 😀
A song picturised on Manoj Kumar for AADMI was first recorded in Talat sir's voice but later it was given to Mahendra Kapoor ji as the actor felt Talat sir's soft voice didn't suit his character.
(Kaisi haseen aaj bahaaron ki raat hai)
Even today, playback singers don't get any royalty. In fact, they can't sing a single line of their own popular numbers at private concerts as the rights are owned by Music companies.
Mai teri nazar ka suroor hoon...
I wonder sometimes that TM was never awarded by film fair in spite of a long list of wonderful melodies perhaps he wasn't good at PR
There wasn’t a mention of his acting career.
Dilip Kumar's early films were Sad Songs according to Old films Stories. Then Mr.Tala Mahmood Sung 75% Songs for Dilip Kumar by the Choice of Film Director and producers also.
دلیپ کمار صاحب نے 1940سے 1960 تک پردہ دیمیں پر اکثر ھایتکار یا پروڈیوسر یا موسیقار کی مرضی یا پسند کے مطابق ( فلم کی کہانی کے تقاضوں اور درد اور غم کے اظہار کے لیئے طلعت محمود سے نغمے گائے یا گوائے' جو کہ ایک مسلمیہ حقیقت ھے۔
Who sang sad songs of Amar, Aan, Deedar, Madhumati?
ماضی میں دلیپ کمار صاحب اور طلعت محمود صاحب' ایک دوسرے کے لیئے " لازم و ملزوم بن گئے تھے۔
بعض وقت ھیمنت کمار صاحب سے ضرورت کے مطابق نغمے گوائے گئے' جیسے " گنگا جمنا " میں انصاف کی ڈگر پہ چل کے دکھاو بچو' وغیرہ وغیرہ۔
" تصویر بناتا ھوں مگر تصویر نہیں بنتی
ایک خواب سا دیکھا ھے تعبیر نہیں بنتی۔
ایک اور نغمہ مشہور ھوا تھا۔
اندھے جہاں کے اندھے راستے جائیں تو جائیں کہاں۔
ایک سنگر ااسی نام سے حیدرآباد سے تعلق رکھتے ھیں جن کا نام " طلعت عزیز صاحب ھیں۔
فلم بازار کا مشہور نغمہ یہ ھے۔
پھر چھڑی رات بات باقی ھے۔
Urdu song Singer ki Charcha English mein Kyoon Maadaams???????
مگرانٹرویو ھندی کے نام پر " اردو " میں ھوتا تو بہتر ھی بہتر ھوتا!!!!
منوج کمار صاحب نے پردہ پر صرف " آدمی " فلم کے لئے شاید ایک ھی نغمہ گایا ھے۔
If you coulf drape a saree in a better way
If you could hear her rather than focussing on cleavage
Indeed.
Can anyone share their opinion on why people who dress a certain way, look a certain way, coloured hair etc., always are pro-Islam? This is a trend not just in India, but across the world. They tend to always support the Islamic cause and have a soft spot for all things Muslim.
Where does Islam come from? Dignity matters.
