Mukesh Happy Birthday Mukesh Chander Mathur was born in Delhi on 22 Jul 1923. His sister, Sundar Pyari, was the one who used to take music tuition classes. Mukesh used to listen from the next room. Lo and behold, the classes had more effect on Mukesh than on his sister. He, initially used to imitate the great singer KL Saigal eg singing his Dil Jalata hai to jalane de. But, the music director Naushad helped him to discover a singing style of his own. In the later life, many of his millions of fans would give anything to be able to sing with his depth and passion. He emerged as the singing voice of Raj Kapor in the movies. So much so that when he died whilst giving a live performance in Detroit Michigan, USA, on 27 Aug 1976, Raj Kapoor bemoaned, "My voice has died." My friend Milind Madhav Hastak has Mukesh as his favourite singer and has already put up Dil Jalata Hai to Jalane De. I will, therefore, start with the song for which he received the National Award for the Best Playback Singer (Male). This is from the 1974 movie Rajnigandha starring Amol Palekar and Vidya Sinha. The movie took the country by the storm due to its freshness, music by Salil Choudhary, lyrics by Yogesh and of course this song that will always remain popular.
