The playfully sensuous Pyaasi Nigahon Mein Sajan (Asha Bhosle) has a mellow RD Burman feel (a la Anamika), while the romantic Asha-Kishore duet Nahin Chodoge Kabhi Mera Haath is redolent with the folk fragrances of SD Burman. Both films quickly went nowhere, taking their music with them.Д«ut the songs of Bazar Band Karo are worth listening to. BR IsharaвЂ™s Charitra (1973) and Bazar Band Karo (1974) were two such productions. In those early years, Lahiri scored music mainly for small-budget films. He not only acted in Badhti Ka Naam Daadhi (1974), but also sang for it. When Shomu Mukherjee and Bappi Lahiri met Kishore Kumar to request him to sing for this film, the maverick singer agreed to their request on one condition: that Lahiri act in KumarвЂ™s forthcoming film! A surprised Lahiri accepted the offer. Though this film doesnвЂ™t have an outstanding score, the sweet Tu Hi Mera Chanda, Tu Hi Taara (Sushma Shreshtha, Mukesh) and the ebullient Tu Meri Manzil (Asha Bhosle and a yodelling Kishore Kumar) were enough to signal the arrival of a bright new talent. Nanha Shikari (1973), produced and directed by Shomu Mukherjee, was LahiriвЂ™s debut as a music composer in Hindi cinema. The family moved to Bombay, his parents giving up their music careers to nurture his вЂ“ something Lahiri is deeply grateful for. He had set his heart on composing for Hindi films, a dream his parents encouraged. So, when he composed music for the Bengali film Daadu (1972), nobody was surprised.Д«ut Lahiri didnвЂ™t want to stay on in Calcutta. He composed his first tune when he was 11 his father happily recorded it as a Bengali song. With a generous dose of music in his genes, he was an excellent learner. At her suggestion, the child started learning to play the tabla at the age of five вЂ“ from none other than the master, Pandit Samta Prasad. Lata Mangeshkar, who was close to his parents Aparesh and Bansari Lahiri, noted singers and composers of Bengali music, noticed BapiвЂ™s interest in music when he was a tiny tot. Meera Lahiri, an aunt, gave him the nickname Bapi (years later, he changed it to Bappi at producer Shomu MukherjeeвЂ™s suggestion).

That, and the fact that he single-handedly set off the decline of melody in Hindi films in the 1980s, have overshadowed the fact that he also created a long string of memorable songs, several of which are timeless classics.ДЄlokesh Lahiri was born in 1952 in Jalpaiguri in Bengal. He is the big daddy of disco in Hindi films.Д«appi LahiriвЂ™s flashy, unabashed public persona has been fodder for the media. His gold ornaments and pendants make him a walking jewellery store. He has trademarked his look and unfailingly maintains it in every public appearance. His name appears in the Guinness Book of World Records for composing 180 songs in a single year (1986). His composition Jimmy Jimmy Aaja Aaja became a rage in many countries. His songs have been sampled by music bands abroad and reprised in latter-day Hindi films.
