Sohail Rana pays tributes to Nisar Bazmi and M. Ashraf |
Written by Administrator | |
Nisar Bazmi Sahab was a contemporary of music wizards of yesteryears such as Khwaja Khursheed Anwar Sahab, Rasheed Attre Sahab, Master Inayat Husain Sahab, C. Ramchandra jee, S.D. Burman jee, Anil Biswas jee….. Nisar Sahab was a senior composer, knowledgeable and hardworking. Compositions such as ‘Ranjish he sahi,’ (Mehdi Hasan), ‘Ho tamanna aur kya,’ ‘Chalo accha hua,’ ‘Kuchh loag root kar bhi,’ (Madam Noor Jehan) ‘Allah he Allah kya karo,’ (Naheed Akhter) and national songs ‘Ye watan tumhara hai,’ by Mehdi Hasan Sahab, are just a few hits that placed him among celebrities of the East.
Please join me in my prayers for the composers, poets and singers- all those who are no more with us and who made invaluable contributions to the music world of India and Pakistan in particular. At this point of time, I would also like to extend my condolences to the bereaved family of one of our contemporary composers, Mr. M. Ashraf, who also passed away quite recently in Lahore. M. Ashraf Sahab was also a hard-working and popular music composer.
