REMEMBERING JAGJITH SINGH ON HIS DEATH ANNIVERSARY 10 th OCTOBER


Ghazal maestro Jagjit Singh often called the 'Ghazal King' by his fans and peers, His songs from movies like “Arth” and “Saath Saath” are evergreen favourites.Stirring millions of hearts with his soulful numbers viz., 'Jhuki jhuki si nazar' Kaagaz ki kashti', 

Hontho se chhoo lo tum, Tum ko dekha, Garaz bharas pyasi dharthi ko, Chitti Na koi sandesh, koi fariyaad, Aadmi, aadmi ko kyaa dega, Jo bhii dega wahi khuda dega’, ‘Fasila toh hai magar, koi faasila nahin’, ‘Mere dukh ki koi dawa na karo, mujhko mujh se abhi judaa na karo, Hazaar baar ruke ham, hazaar baar chale’Dhoop mein niklo ghataaon mein naha kar dekho, Zindagee kya hai kitaabon ko hataakar dekho’ so many heart touching Gazals. The pain and melancholy in his voice gave vent to the feelings of many a lonely heart.Singh was of the view that music was for inspiration and not for competition. "The moment one brings competition into music, the soul is lost."

The lyrics from his Gazals teaches us a lot of lessons for life, about  love, about togetherness, companionship and most importantly about enjoying life in its simplicity. Kaagaz ki kasti A song remembers our childhood, Chiti na koi sandesh song that tells the unltimate truth of life, Tumko dekha to yeh khayal aaya’ – a song every lover can identify with… a song that steps beyond the physical and celebrates a love that is about finding tranquility, solace, peace and support in your beloved.
