I think I am Talat's greatest fan. Talat was my friend in 1952.
I was a Police Sub-Inspector working at Bandra Police Station.
Talat used to come to the PS once a week to meet Inspector
Adkar. Talat had bought his first car and we used to take a ride
in the car. Possibly, it was a Morris. Although, I lost touch
with him, he was always with me because I listen to his velvet
voice every day of my life. I am his greatest fan ever. Khalid
Saheb, I want to meet you and hold you in my arms. Because,
Talat also held you in his arms as a baby!

"Talat" - The Urdu name, I really don’t know the
meaning, but the name itself touches my heart so deeply. Right from
my childhood I am listening Talat. His velvety voice is the only
voice and will remain forever the only voice on earth. In true
sense, really no one can and will never imitate his voice and the
way of singing. Legacy of many other singers is carried ahead by
their imitators, but Talat is only one and will remain only one
forever.
His entire silent, romantic, melodious and meaningful
songs literally soothe my heart. Whenever I feel low and depressed,
I just play Talat songs. When I start playing Talat, I always get
spellbound, and I go deeper and deeper in to those spells of
therapy, yes, therapy - it’s literally a therapy to sooth your
heart. I forget all the worries and tensions, and get relaxed
instantly by getting very caring, loving and soothing touch of his
voice in the form of unbeatable tablets of his melodies.
There are/were many other singers in the industry, I
love them, respect them and their songs, no doubt, but whenever I
listen Talat, then I don’t like to hear any other singer, ones I
hear Talat, I feel to keep continue listening Talat, Talat and only
Talat without any interruption.
Other singers also have very great fan following may
be in terms of numbers and fan clubs, but for Talat, fans are just
not fans, but one step ahead, they always loved him like - "Wo mera
apna koi hai". When Talat sings - I feel that purest of the purest
heart is singing, and curing souls.
His voice - a nature’s miracle or Gods gift to him,
one cannot express exactly in words what is it? Besides this, he
sung all of his songs very easily and effortlessly. But no one can
even think of going near to his singing and his songs, that shows
his practice, knowledge and immense love and dedication for singing.
Besides all of his singing and voice qualities, he looks very
descent, calm and sober, elegant. His simplicity made him outshine.
I feel proud to have such a great real gem in my
life. He is god’s gift to all of us. Talat songs and Talat will be
alive in our heart forever.
Salute to him from the core of my heart with deep
respect. I belong to youngsters, and I am sure, others also share
the same kind of feelings like me.

Ever since I heard Talatji's song "Chal Diya Karvaan, Loont Gaye Hum
Yaha" (in the year 1967-68) when I was in my College years, I have
been a fan of Talat Mahmood. That time, I did not understand the
kind of magic he had in his throat. I started collecting lyrics of
all his songs and try to sing them. After I moved to USA in 1981, I
had a chance to see him sing live, but unfortunately, I was far away
from Houston, Texas where his concert was to be held, and I could
not make it. I still regret today. I have lot of collection of his
old, new and non-filmi songs/Gazals today and I still enjoy them
over any other singer of any generation.I accidently found this site
today, and I am so glad to see and learn more about his life today.
Great job Khalidbhai. Please keep it up. Thanks. PRAKASH MAJMUAR

Talat is truly a SHAHENSHAH OF GHAZALS ! That velvet feel in his
voice and emotions straight from the heart is a combination few
can beat or touch. The Gods above must be so happy hearing the
SHAHENSHAH sing for them everyday ! It is us mortals who have
lost the man with the golden voice forever.........

Talat saab has that vocal sophistication that no one else in Hindi
Film Cinema ever has. Coupled with it he has the rare sonorousness
and vocal beauty that makes him unique, only one of a kind. It is
disheartening that such a huge talent got such limited success in
the '70s, '80s and the '90s. It is a sad state of affairs that the
worlds best ghazal singer remained less heard than ordinary talents
like Jagjit Singh, Pankaj Udhas and Anup Jalota during the ghazal wave. Even the
great Mehdi Hassan, who owes much of his singing skills to Talat
does not come close in terms of sonority and effortless singing.

As a young girl, i recall being totally enchanted by Talat sahib's
rendition of "jalte hai jiske liye" while watching the movie
"sujatha"-being in my pre-teens, i could not appreciate the pathos
expressed in the song but the voice, oh the voice was so beautiful
that i fell in love with it! The song kept going round in my head for
days after and then as with everything else, faded out of my
memory. Now, on the wrong side of forty, i was re-introduced to Talat
sahib's music by a wonderful friend from the past and i am now an
addict to Talat sahib's songs...his voice has the ablity to
transport me to a wonderful time when life was gentle and love was
considerate...i'm only sad that i missed listening to Talat sahib
all these years in between...but i shall try to make up for that
loss..Talat sahib's songs are my constant companions now..i do envy
my friend who was able to see Talat sahib on his trip to tellicherry
all those years ago...Thanks to you, i am able to learn about your
legendary Father..Guess he must be enchanting those, who like him, have
left this plane for a higher existence....look down on us and see
our enchantment in your songs dear sahib!!

Dear Khalid Bhai, What a wonderful site you have prepared on you
great father Talat Saab who had the most divine voice! Now I am 55.
I had remained in the audience when Talat Saab had come to Cochin
(Mattancherry HEHMMH School).At first he started with "Seene me
sulagthe hai armaan". Then it started raining. Talat Saab
immediately sang Aaha Rhimjhim ke ye paare pyaare".The entire
audience remained in their seats though it rained well. The concert
went with TalatSaab's magical touches. I ran in the crowd and
touched his hand. He felt Godsent He came twice thereafter. In
seventeens. Second time I went and spoke. How great and humble he
was.He stood to shook my hand. Third time I made an interview. I had
written articles in Malayalam for three ocassion, including the one
I had done after his sad demise. In Cochin, there is one Hussan
Shah, who is in his 60s now.He had a replica of Talat saab's voice.
Unfortunately now he is sick. The people of Cochin found solace in
hearing him for Talat Saab's voice.I have now words how to comment
on this great artist on the earth who is still with us and will be
there for centuries with his heavenly voice. Khalid Bhai, every
night I use to hear Talat Saab for a good sleep. With high regards,

Being a crazy fan I check this site regularly. On 2nd November,2005
I wrote a message to you. Today I found in 'Listen to Audio' page
that you have uploaded the songs in other regional languages
alongwith Bengali songs. But you did not upload two songs in older
version. One is "Duti paakhi duti teere" and the other is "Ghumero
chhaya chandero chokhe". It is really painful to me. Because I think
that most of the fans already heard the newer version. But the older
version is very very rare. At least to me. I have been searching
those songs for a long days. I hoped that you will quench my thirst.
But I am disappointed. Also I want to hear the bengali film songs
sung by the legend singer (Obviously the original soundtrack). I
shall be very grateful to you if you upload this songs immediately.
Thanks and regards Subir Biswas

Dear Mr Mahmood, It is gratifying to note your effort to keep the
memory of your legendary father alive. A mere cursory hearing of the
songs posted by you is sufficient to make one realize how justified
the emotions expressed by Kishore Kumar were when, once, after
hearing your father sing at Anil Biswas's house, he contemplated
giving up singing altogether, reasoning that he had no chance of
making a career, so long as such a perenially romantic voice was
around!

find singers of such a caliber these days. It is very heartening to

Khalid Saheb, A few moments back I have uploaded an attachment which
is self explanatory. I have gone through the list of ghazals: Listen
to Audio. I do not find a ghazal that was broadcast nearly 40 years
ago by the A.I.R. I had spoken to the late Talat Saheb then,
enquiring about its availibilty. Expressing his regrets he had
informed that since that was the private property of the A.I.R. it
was not available to the public. Almost 3 decades later the the same
ghazal was telecast by the Door Darshan but to my disappointment it
was not Talat Saheb; it was a female singer whose rendering I am
sorry to state was insipid. The wordings are: "Teri bewafaai kaa
shukriya, Mujhe tune jeena sikha diya. Tere gham me chen saa mil
gaya, Tere dard ne jo mazaa diya. I had the good fortune to note
down the entire piece in Urdu. If interested you may e mail me on:
yousuf65@rediffmail.com I will be pleased to scan the ghazal and
upload the same to you immediately. Regards, Yousuf

common eye in early years of life). I would like to know about his

Talking of a gentleman like Talat Saab one can come across numerous
instances. I recall an incidence when he was singing for a packed
standing room audience at Ashoka Hotel, New Delhi. He had a sore
throat and he felt he was not at his best, kept apologising for that
but continued. This was in the winters in early eighties. This was
one concert of his that I heard standing as I was late and the hall
was packed to capacity. The more he apologised the more the crowd wanted their requests. He continued in
spite of the sore throat and no one was really bothered that Talat
saab needed a rest. They loved him and he was responding to their
love. The biggest praise for the two concerts came from the press on
the following days. They admired the selection and dedication with
which he went beyond the stipulated time for his fans. What mattered
was that he performed and the fans got to hear him. That's what I
call being a saintly gentleman who willingly accepts pain for the
pleasure of others.

On 13th july 1987 when Talat Mahmood was to be given lions club award
along with Anil Biswas & Ashok Kumar, I alongwith my friends visited him
at Maurya Sheraton Hotel New Delhi. On our request, he rendered few lines of "mere khyalon mein aake gale laga ja mujhe" which every
one present there enjoyed the session. We cherish that memory
still. Talat sahab was a great person, great singer. i fail to
understand as to why he was not chosen for sensuous songs, like a few
years before. He used to sing from his heart, not from his
lungs. Khalid ji kya aap koi rare cd of his sensuous songs, rare

My heartfelt thanks to Khalid bhai for making this site of Talat Mahmood. I
rank him among the two best Hindi Male Singers of Hindi Film Music.
His tune was different from that of other contemporary singers. With
his Gazal Style tune which he brought into all the Hindi songs he
sang, he made a tremendous impact in Hindi Film Songs. Who can
forget the following songs that made him immortalized in Hindi Film
Songs. Jalte Hain Jiske Liye Meri Yaad Mein Tumna Jayen To Jayen
Kahan Aasmawale Teri Duniya Se [ Duet with Lata ] Aaha Rim Jhim Ke
Ye Pyare Pyare [ Duet with Lata ] He sang a few Bengali Songs, all
of which were super hit, nostalgic. Such was his calibare that upon
hearing his Bengali Songs, it is hard to believe that he was not a
Bengali. Je Ankhite Eto Hashi Lukano Adho Rate Jodi Ghum Bhenge Jaay

song with Mohammad Rafi. The caption says that it is for the film
'Sujata'. But as far as I know Rafi did not sing any song in
'Sujata'. Is the caption wrong? I would appreciate a clarification.

Hey, am a first timer. Am yet to go thru' ur postings. I love TM and
hope u do have some of his good songs on. Somehow have been addicted
to him ever since I first heard him at the age of 16...i am 31 now.
I was introduced to his music by my Dad since he had some of his
numbers on the records. My friends would tease me about listening to
"raat waale gaane" and being a dead romantic. However, only ardent
fans would understand that his kind of music is so impossible to
describe and explain to everyone. Thanks for giving us this site.

Dear Khalidbhai: Adab. I know you must be receiving thousands of
mails from all over the world and this one from me one of them.
Right from my school days, I was and am still a great fan of
Talatsaheb. Many have said all the qualities of his voice. But
believe me, very religeously for the last about 40-45 years ( I am
now 64), every night before I go to sleep, I listen to his songs and
gazals. I have almost all CDs and cassettes of this great man with
me. I come to India every two three months for work and I want to
visit you and pay my respect for him. Is it possible to meet you and
if so, where can I meet you. I generally stay in Pali Hill with my
uncle. Please do let me know. I am planning to be there in April. I
would love to comeby and see you. Regards V.Srinivasan 6303 Pioneer

his since my childhood. I often tell people that no one has been

does. Any singer worth his while should try renditioning it both in

During my schooldays, early Eighties, I used to hum a song & was
passionate of this particular song. Later on I found that it was
Talatji's song-"Itna na mujhse tu pyaar badaa". Quite later in my
college days(mid Eighties)when I started liking and appreciating
good music/classical music(indian, western) then I came to know that
the tune was from one of Mozarts symphony. But I realized that how
beautifully rather artfully he justified the tune with his soulful
voice and was so close to the tune of the original symphony. That
was Talat Mahmood's introduction to me. One can very well understand
that during the advent of DISCO music in Eighties and 70's when
everyone of my age was into that kind of music I was enthralled by
Talatji's AWAAZ and STYLE. He was original. His voice was sober yet mesmerising voice. His was a voice which could sweep you away from
one world to another world- the world of eternal bliss. The perfect
urdu diction was unparalleled. He could sing difficult words with
ease and undersatanding. He used to sing difficult songs with such
ease that every other would feel that he too can sing his numbers
but when you try then you realise how difficult is to sing his
numbers. That is why you will find less, rather no, Talat clones. I
respect his voice as an admirer of good music and pure music.I thank
him for giving me comfort and bliss through his beautiful songs. I
thank Khalid also for coming out with this website. Warm Regards N K

"Bichdey sabhi baari baari". I grew up listening to two immortal
voices..Mohammed Rafi Sahab & Talat Mahmood Sahab. Now they are no
more in this world. But their voices will remain for at least
thousand years. This itself is a proof of their hard work,
dedication,love for music,the in-born gift from God The Almighty,
their sincerity, their simplicity, etc etc. Whoever created this
site is a genius and a true fan of Talat sahab. My best wishes to
Khalid bhai for his success in the music field (just like his dad).
In the end I pray that God grant Talat sahab heavenly abode. May his
soul rest in peace-Aameen

My dear Khalid, I am an old acquaintance of your Dad
Shri Talat Mahmood, nephew of Resham Singh +DEEP in
London. I did try and call u in Bombay once but u were busy.
Noticeably the last recording of Talat jee ghazal ke saaz Uthao was
an excellent collection of music compostions i donot remember who
composed the Music and the tunes but the lyrics and everything is
well composed.
But very surprisisngly on the inauguration of Ghazal ke saaz uthao
fotograph i donot find the introduction of the music composer i
could see Shri Dilip Saira jee and Talat jee but no composer this is
perhaps peculiar and also the lyrcist shud have been there
May be u like to give your comments on that.
I still sing the good old melodies of Talat jee which I use to do
with friends way back in 1958.
To give you a recap I saw you first many years ago when in Bombay
TalatJee told me aboutlearning guitar and may be you were going to
school. I used to fly with British Airways and finally i retired
from British Airways Delhi Airport. I have two grown up sons
Maninder and Suprinder , Maninder lives in London and Suprinder is
in Losangles. Being a hobby singer we have a group of friends who
all admire and sing Talatjee's memorable melodies and wonderful
compositions done by Madan Mohan Anil Biswas and other big comrades
of the Music field.
I need the songs from Darbar film I wonder if you can comeback to me
and suggest how to get them.
Bye with love and regards Please pay mine and my wife's respect to
your Mom whom we had met when Talat Jee was living in this World.
Yours affectionately

I think I am Talat's greatest fan. Talat was my friend in 1952. I
was a Police Sub-Inspector working at Bandra Police Station. Talat
used to come to the PS once a week to meet Inspector Adkar. Talat
had bought his first car and we used to take a ride in the car.
Possibly, it was a Morris. Although, I lost touch with him, he was
always with me beause I listen to his vibrating voice every day of
my life. I am his greatest fan ever. Khalid Saheb, I want to meet
you and hold you in my arms. Because, Talat also held you in his

Dear Mr. Khaled,
As a long time collector of vintage songs of 30s, 40s and 50s, I
have always been an ardent admirer of Talat Mahmood. His unique
velvety singing style and the incomparable "Soz" in his voice
combined well with the "Saaz" of musical giants of that era, notably
Anil Biswas, C. Ramchandra, Roshan, Madan Mohan and Salil Chaudhary.
Unfortunately, I have just learnt about your website, and hence
missed out the songs that were available in the past on the website.
I hope to visit this website regularly and request you to provide
the rare songs of Talatji once again at your convenience.
Meanwhile please accept my sincere thanks for your wonderful

Dear Shri Khalid
I have just come across your beautiful site devoted to your late
father, the one and only Talat Mahamood. I have been a great fan of
his from childhood, and even had the proud privilege of arranging a
concert by him here at Cannanore in 1966/67. As soon as Talat Saab
landed here, I gave him a list of my favourite songs sung by him and
I was very happy that he obliged me by singing a so many of them. I
had taped that concert, but that was a 'zamana' of lousy equipment
and the tape soon got damaged, and I do not have any copies. Talat
Saab was with me here in Cannanore for more than 24 hours and I
spent a great amount of time with him. I have got several of his LPs
but very very few songs on Mp3 format, and I am trying to collect as
many as I can. I would be grateful if you can put all his most
popular songs - mainly filmi - once again so that I can refer to
them each week and download them. I would particularly like to have
the songs "Yaadon ka sahara na hota' from the film 'Pathar ka
Khwab'and "Itna na mujhse tun pyar badha' from "Chhaya". Could you
also direct me to some other good sites where I can down load Talat
Mahamood'd velvet voice.
Just a couple of weeks before he left this world, Sa Re Ga Ma had
their Annual Contest on Zee TV and Anil Biswas declared how for him
Talat Mahamood was impossible for any one to imitate. He kept a
picture of Talat Saab near his chair for all to see.
I hope you will continue keping his memory alive. Such singers are
rare and their works are genuine treasure.
With bst wishes

In the childhood I remember my father to be a great fan of Talatsaab
but at that age I always liked the songs of Kishorji and Rafisaab.
But as I grew up I started to understand the magic of the voice of
Talatsaab. Its just like a `Mayurpankh' passing by you touching your
body which leaves you haunted by its softness and its great style.
We are going to present a programme of his songs on 8th of May at
6.30 P.M. at Dombivli in Thane district. I strongly wish that you
should be present at the programme. Plese reply this mail if it's
any way possible.
I came across this website while collecting the material for
comparing of the programme. It's a fantastic work by you for a
number of fans of Talatsaab like us. You are really very lucky to be
a son of such a great man!

Talatsaab ki shakhshiyat aur unki ghazal gayeki ke bare men kuch
kahne ke liye alfaz kam pad jate hain.samajh men nahi aata ki unki
kis kis khoobiyon ke bare men zikr karen,bas itna hi kahna kafi hai
ki woh jitne achche ghazal singer hain usse bhi kahin zeyada haseen
shakhshiyat ke malik hain.He is remarkable that despite singing in
an age where each singer carved out his/her own niche, he remains an
enduring favorite despite having a rather limited prolificity. While
I would no doubt rate him as the best ever, he is simply best he is
not for the age he is for the ages.i love his songs,he sings from
the bottom of heart.he is simply the king of ghazal singing.
I dont think we need any words (and inappropriate words at that) to
hail him with this great poetic line of Sir allama Iqbal(hazaron

devoted fans of Talat Mahmood, I deeply appreciate your hard work.
His soft and sweet voice simply cannot be imitated, but his memory

geets. I have most of his songs and ghazals, but I request three
songs in your audio section: KOI UMEED BAR NAHIN AATI, MUSHKIL NIKLA
DIL KA SAMBHALNA, both from the film CHIRAAGH JALTA RAHA, and KAL
RAAT ZINDAGI SE MULAQAT HO GAI from the film Palki. I believe this

interest in ghazals, thats why we like also Talat sahab's ghazals
very much.
Now i want to tell you in your given wanted list, we have two
ghazals in it, now you have to tell ushow we can send those 2
ghazals to you?
1. jahan main koi nahi hai apna har ek ko khoob aazmaya.
2. Dil ki dunya basa gaya hai kon.
we think so that till now you cant complete the list of ghazals.
lots of ghazals missing in your list.
and we request you if we need ghazals, can you send us?
thank you for the reply.

A freat site indeed. And on one of my very favourite "fankaars".
Talat saab's voice is sheer magic and provides solace and peace to
those who have the ability to comprehend it.
There was a series of geets (non-film) that Talat saab released with
Anilda in the late 50s.I managed to get 2 of them - "Phir pyar kiya"
and "Sitaron tum ghawah rehna". Any pointers to any of the others ?
Anilda is the greatest com[poser to have stepped into films - and
his combo with Talat saab was sheer magic.
May Talat saab's magic continue to live on.

Your site is wonderfully informative. My reason for visiting your
site is not only my admiration for Talat Mahmood the great artiste,
but also because I once had met him, his wife and maybe one of his
sons (was he called Guddu?) in the early sixties when I was a very
small child --- 5 or 6 years old. The Mahmoods were visiting a
childhood friend of Mrs Lotika Mahmood, Mrs Guha Roy who lived in a
small ground-floor flat on Kalighat Road, Calcutta. We used to live
in the flat above the one rented by the Guha Roys. I vaguely
remember Mrs Guha Roy would fondly mention her childhood friend
Lotika and she would add that they belonged to the same village.
I write to you to ask the name of the native village or town of Mrs
Lotika Mahmood. It's just idle curiosity about one's sweet old
childhood days.

I am 27 years old now and have been listening to your father since I

as far as my memory goes in 1977?78?, the first Talat song I heard
was from film Dost-'Aye bhi akela..'
For years now, I have accumulated hundreds of his songs mostly
recorded from Radio Ceylon but I could never manage to record Dil
mera tera... and I cannot express my feeling (may be ecstasy) when I
finally heard this song on your site. Everyday I go online, I keep
feeding the 3 words 'Dil mera tera' on google but it is not listed

Hi Khalid saab,
A great site indeed. I am a frequent visitor to the site simply
because I am a die-hard fan of Talat saab. Talat saab, like most
great singers of his day, has retained a very fierce, loyal
following. The numbers may vary - but I am sure that even as one
generation follows another, the magic of Talat saab's voice would
continue to cast a spell on all. Kudos to you posting rare songs on
a regular basis.
Just a suggestion. Seeng that this site is so huge, I suggest you
have a seperate page listing the Updates to your site. I mean, we
need to go through each and every page before finding that no
updates have been made since that last visit. I think that would be
beneficial to all.

There is no doubt that Talat was the greatest ghazal singer, if not,
the greatest singer of the last 60 years. His songs had so much
emotion and depth that they have never been replicated in such a
way. Paying respects to the late Talat Mahmood is like showing the
moon its own reflection in a mirror!
Thank you very much Khalid sahib for sharing with us the public
memories and facts about the great singer that was Talat Mahmood.
I am sure I speak for all Talat's fans when I say that his
songs/ghazals will live in the hearts of millions all over the world
for many many more years to come.
And even amongst the young generation his melodies are much
appreciated, as I myself am in my early twenties, and like my

still moves me to tears. The song could have been the ultimate
destination for myriad of singers, but Talatsaab had many such songs

But I feel you should also provide due tributes to those legendary
composers - in particular Anilda - who supported him along. As I
said, his was a truly different voice - so it needed the right

You have presented a wonderful and befitting web-site honoring your
equally wonderful and great father.
During sixties I used to be a student at Scottish Church College in
Calcutta. We had a classmate called Vijay Bhaghi who used to sing
most songs sung by Talatji. I fell in love with Talatji and his
unique singing style from that time. If you have Vijay Bhaghi's
e-mail address (in the event he wrote to you thorugh your web-site)
I would sincerely appreciate if you can share the same with me.
May God bless you and your entire family.

Dear Khalid,
Talatsaab has been my favourite singer ever since I could perceive
the depths of human emotions. When he was in his prime I was just a
kid. although i heard his songs i could not appreciate them till I
crossed my thirties. Burt he has been my favourite ever since. His
era was truly golden era of Hindi movies. God was liberal with us
when many greats peaked during 50's & 60's in singing, lyrics,
acting, direction etc. I wish I could actualyy hear my favourite
songs of Talatsaab from your site. COuld you do something about it?
Meantime I will access the sites you have recommended. Your site is
great; it downloads faster than most Indian sites. Keep up good

Browsed through the Down Memory Lane and a few of the observations

remember very well when as a young schoolboy, I would sit on the
banks of the river Ganges and sing to myself "Hain sabse madhur woh
giit jinhein..", with the music going thru my mind just as the waves
hit the shore. The song never failed to lift me up.
Talat's voice has been said to be silken, velvety, etc. Sure many
other singers have had such voices, but then his was the best to
suit the forte of his singing - the Ghazals and Geets.

Talat Saheb was a not only a great singer; he was a good human
being. I was lucky to take a ride with him and Inspector Adkar in
Talat Sahebs car, which my recollection says, was his first brand
new car. Talat Saheb was staying in Bandra then. He often visited
Bandra Police Station where I was working as a P.S.I. I was
transferred to different Police Stations. I kept in touch with Talat
Saheb because he had the most haunting voice in the entire music
world. Every day, during the last sixty years, I have been listining
to his immortal 'gazals' and duets. I deeply regret the fact that I
did not make enough effort to meet Talat Saheb after 1956, which was
the last when I met him. I pray to Almighty to give Talat Saheb

Hi Khalid,
I have all my life been a lieral devotee for Talat saab and his

His voice remains the solace to millions of injured ones - a
voice which seems to echo the depths of despair and yet, balm u.
But just a small word of advice - too much of sugar or sweet is
harmful. Despite being an avid Talat devotee, I feel that you
have gone overboard with your praises. They do not match with
the dignity and modesty which one always associated with Talat

When I was first sent away to boarding school I was asked to
sing a song - not because I was a good singer - just to get me
to unwind. The only song I could think up in my panic was
Tasveer banata hoon tasveer nahin banati. This was in 1953. I
grew up on Talat and have never given up liking him. On one
occasion he came to Lucknow and performed at Ravindralaya. This
was, I think, in 1966. In one song he missed a beat. And I was
most upset. Talat! My Talat! And missing a beat? Impossible. He
had always been the acme of perfection to me and here he was
demonstrating that he was human! I am keen to get together a

your father expired, it was sad day for me too, but remember he

I found very good vibrations and dard which nobody has in the
present singers. The voice of your dad is incomparable.

We have been Talat Sahab's fans all our lives. In fact, my
brother Ali Zaidi who now lives in England, once sang Talat
Sahab's song "Meri Yaad me Tum Na Ansoo Bahana..." at St.
Xavier's in Bombay, when he was a student there, and Talat Sahab
embraced him and presented him with Mahender Kapoor Trophy for
the best singer for that year. My brother still sings his songs
beautifully. But the greatness is always in the originals.

I am an ardent fan of Talat Mahmood Sahab from my childhood
days. My wife is a music connoisseur and my understanding of the
music became more matured after the marraiage. I started
understaing how much expressions Talat Mahmood Sahab was putting
in his each song. Whenever I am listening to Talat Mahmood
Sahab's songs, I just close my eyes and tears starts coming out.
I consider this is the greatest respect one can pay to a singer.
I consider myself very unfortunate that I could not meet Talat
Mahmood Sahab when he was alive.
I am an eually fan of Anil Biswas Sahab. The combination of two
has alwayas produced the best. I have a great desire to meet

Khalid,
I got to know about Talatji through my father's collection of
his songs but he made a deep impact on me when I saw Bombay
Doordarshan's programme "Shaam Ee Gham Ki Kasam". I am dying to
get a copy of that tape. If anyone can help me that would be
great! But today when I discovered this website, I would be less
sad if I did not get the tape because, the website is so
comprehensive - Thanks so much Khalid.
Just wanted to share the moment when one night (12th May 1999) I
was making my son sleep with the songs of Talat ji playing at
the background. I knew Talatji was very sick and was concerned
about his well being. I surfed the net for any information about
how he was doing and there I found the news item in Hindu that
he passed away just a couple of days back (9th May 1999).
Somehow, I could not stop the tears in my eyes. I was fortunate
to have had the chance to briefly speak to him over the phone
sometime immediately after he got his padmabhushan which he so
much deserves. May his soul rest in peace!

Sorry to hear about the loss of India's legend. I did not know
about Talatsaab's death until I got on the web site. Khalid,
thank you for the site. I just saw Talatsaab's movie "Lala Rukh"
on video. I could not believe how handsome he was!! All I knew
that he was a great singer, and I grew up listening and loving
his songs. I have one solo song tape of Talatsaab's songs, which
was prepared by my friend for me. If I ever loose it, I will be
lost. I listen to the tape, whenever I need to touch base with
real me. In this busy materialistic world, we often forget who
we were and what our values, likes nad dislikes were. The
current generation will never understand the wealth we had in
singers like Talatsaab. When I was growing up, whenever I heard
Talatsaab on the Aakashwani, I will stop everything and just
listen to that heart touching voice. Thanks again for the
wonderful photographs and memorablia. I wish we had the current
technology then to record the songs, but even with the old
technology, Talatsaab's songs are alive and good to listen to. I
do not think we can find his voice and the emotions to re-make
of his songs with the current technology, i.e, CD, etc. May be,
being his son, you have a voice like him......

As a little boy my parents had sent me to a missionary high
school in karachi,pakistan, so,when I was
growing up I was totally westernized vis-a-vis music,mannerism
school friends etc.I still vividly remember
it even after over forty years now, my friend in the
neighbourhood invited me to go see a movie with his parents,I
did, the movie was Daag. As a teenager I was watching the indian
film for the first time. As I was watching the movie Dilip Kumar
came on the screen and the voice of Talat Mahmood, the song was
koi nahin mera is duniya men. The song moved me so intensely
that I had tears in my eyes. Even today
when I hear this song it brings tears to my eyes. I was simply
amazed at Talat Mahmood's incredible voice,it had a strong
impact on my life. I gave up all western songs and music and got
interested in pakistani and indian film music.
There are two things I have been totally unable to understand
and grasp so far in my life, they are
old age and death. Death has taken Talat Mahmood from us.

evening followed by a dinner in my house and Mahmood saab stayed
until the dawn of Saturday even though he had to play in Chicago
the same Saturday night! Besides being a superb singer, Talat
saab was a thorough gentleman took a personal interest in all
our guests. We miss him.

I specially mentioned my visit to Zimbabwe and the Music Party,
I have had the pleasure to attend. It was Special in the sense
that the young singer copied the tune and did not miss out a
single word of those two beautiful, but little known Geets of
the King of Ghazals. If the Party was in Pakistan, India, Nepal,
UK or USA, it was understandable that many among the audience
would have known the tune and the words of Talat Sahib's Geets
or Ghazals - but Zimbabwe was an unlikely place. The same singer
sand a few numbers of Udit Narayan and Kumar Sanu but the crowd
appreciation was subdued compared to the continued clappings
after he had completed "Aaj use phir dekha hai" or "Main teri
chhabi banaonga". Talat Sahib is INIMITABLE. But a much less
quality is still raved about. Talat Sahib's silky smooth voice
was a gift of God, only to be appreciated, cherished and loved.

Dear Khalid bhai,
Tariq Saheb from Lahore seems to be desperate to listen to
'Zindagi Dene Wale Sun". He has posted two requests within a
week. And then we have Mr. Vaidya who was introduced to the
great voice by his mother again through "Zindagi Dene Wale Sun"
For the last three months-ever since I heard the Royal Albert
Hall recording, Zindagi Dene Wale Sun has been ringing in my
mind as I hear it repeatedly on the CD you gave.
What a fantastic rendering of this beautiful song at Royal
Albert and the guitarist brought life to the composition of
Ghulam Mohammad Sahib! Was I to be there, I too would not have
been satisfied and would have joined others to repeat it again,
even after Talat Sahib had obliged the fans by re-singing half
of it. The icing is that when he sang the second time, he sang
his heart out. Had never heard Talat Sahib go so high as he did
in London. The comfort I have is that I was fortunate to hear
him sing the song in two concerts.
So, the morale of the story..Why don't you put it on the MP3
soon?. Needless to say I am enjoyng his private recordings these
days.

Respected Khalid Sahab,
Namaskar.I inherited my love for Mr.Talat Mahmood's songs from
my parents who are ardent fans of his ghazals and songs. I am 23
years of age, an engineering student and saddened to see the
slow death of everything good,may it be good songs or good
films. there's no originality in things now and everything seems
to have an artificial or machine like feel to it. my personal
Talat favourite is "Jalte hein jiske liye". i would be very
happy if you could give me some ideas about any websites on Rafi
sahab,Hemant,Mukesh,KL Saigal,Manna Dey,Kishore Kumar,CH
Atma,Mahendra Kapoor and Suresh Wadekar.
thanking you,
Yours sincerely,

Before my birth my father owned a record store and I was told
that whenever my parents listened to music I would lay still.
Off course Talat Mahmood Sahib was more than a passing fancy.
His music was always around our house. I have listened to him
since 1948 and I feel that his voice cannot be duplicated.
I am also related to Mr. Naqvi who was the person who organized
Talat Mahmood's concert in Karachi in early 60's so there are
many "Yadeen" connected to his coming over to Pakistan.
Best wishes to him and his family. Thanks for the memories.

During my schooldays, early Eighties, I used to hum a song & was
passionate of this particular song. Later on I found that it was
Talatji's song-"Itna na mujhse tu pyaar badaa".Quite later in my
college days(mid Eighties)when I started liking and appreciating
good music/classical music(indian, western) then I came to know
that the tune was from one of Mozarts symphony.But I realized
that how beautifully rather artfully he justified the tune with
his soulful voice and was so close to the tune of the original
symphony. That was Talat Mahmood's introduction to me.
One can very well understand that during the advent of DISCO
music in Eighties and 70's when everyone of my age was into that
kind of music I was enthralled by Talatji's AWAAJ and STYLE.He
was original.Original like my favourite Md. Rafi.I had
discovered someone else apart from few other greats like Mukesh,
Kishore, Manna,Asha & Lata.He was so unique in the sense that no
one can near the art of such a shrill, sober yet mesmerising
voice.His was a voice which could sweep you away from one world
to another world- the world of eternal bliss. The perfect urdu
diction was unparalleled. He could sing difficult words with
ease and undersatanding.He used to sing difficult songs with
such ease that every other would feel that he too can sing his
numbers but when you try then you realise how difficult is to
sing his numbers. That is why you will find less, rather no,
Talat clones.
I respect his voice as an admirer of good music and pure music.I
thank him for giving me comfort and bliss through his beautiful
songs.I thank Khalid also for coming out with this website.

The readers of this site/guest book know that I am a great fan
of Talat Sahib. Two days before a popular singer, who sang more
than 12000 songs, Mujeeb alam passed away. May his soul live in
peace. He was also a fan of Talat Sahib. In last eighties when
his son " Woh mere Samne Tasveer" came on air he became popular
amongst music lovers. At that time I and my other college mates
met him at Lahore. He said that he loved Talat Sahib from the
last core of his heart. He sang Talat Sahib's Bengali Song.
Similarly our great Actor Nazir Beg "Nadim" loves Talat Sahib.
Mujeeb alam once in Karachi sang Talat Sahib's Ghazal " Kuch
Huwa Hasil Nah Ab Tuk". The Music was composed by late Nihal
Abdullah. Munir Hussain who was also a popular singer of our
country followed the style of Talat Sahib's. In short our
popular singers were also great fans of Talat who will never
vanish from the hearts of Billion of people. May the souls of
both singers " one leader and one follower" live in peace.

believe it or not, I have not taken my eyes off it for
continuosly 2 hours. I have browsed through everything - from
the beginning till the end in the same order(skipping only the
song list section - 'cos its too long, which shows that there is
an inexhaustible number of songs which the great Talat has
sung), reading almost everything and saving most of the pictures
onto my hard disk. I knew so little about Talat Mahmood before
this. But now I am leaving this website with a plethora of
knowledge and a very cheerful heart, and I would like to wish
the entire beautiful, loving and caring family a lot of
happiness and success in all their endeavours.

I almost listen daily Talat Sahib's melodious songs/geets. One
thing I noted that some songs perhaps were rerecorded like
"Bechen nazar" "Nazon key pale". The reasons are not known to
fans. In early 80s we felt his voice different from his early
voice. Khalid Sahib would you tell us the reasons?
This site has provided me a sincere friend Mr. Jaideep. For
which I am proud.
With warmth regard.

Dear Khalid Bhai,
It was nice to meet you at Bombay last week. On returning to
Delhi I played the CD you gave me of Talat Saheb's concert at
the Royal Albert Hall. It is simply outstanding.
You are floored the moment you hear his lovely voice in chaste
urdu. It is so warm that you feel he is speaking to you. His
choice of songs was a good mix and a bit different from what I
had expected. He was careful in his choice before the popular
numbers were sung on request of the audiance. I had never heard
him sing "Koi nahin mera is duniya main" in a concert. It is a
gem but not heard often. Some of my personal favourites have
been the songs that he sang for himself and craved that he would
come out with "Jo khushi se chot khaye" after that wonderful
rendering of "Zindagi dene wale sun" since they are both from
the same film. I wish "Shame-e-gham ki kasam" was there.
Needless to say that shall keep me busy for a while and thank
you for your own CD. I have all your music and that is why I
enquired when do I get to hear the next one.
Finally thank you for your warmth and staying back to meet me
though you had another appointment at that hour.
Now this one is for those of you fans that have made repeated
requests for songs of your choice on this website.
You may be able to get them but you will never get what Khalid
Bhai has offered to us-the live recording.The flavour remains
for long. I recommend you order for the recording and believe me
it will be one of your most passionate possessions.
All the best.

I had been a great admirer and a fan of Talatji. I remember my
meeting with him in the Grand Hotel of Calcutta in the year 1973
(when I was at IIT Kharagpur doing my MTech) prior to his
concert at the Kalamandir. He allowed only two minutes for us
but kept on talking for more than 45 minutes. Except a few songs
availble on the LPs/cassettes pre-recorded I have a good
collection of them recorded from the Radio Ceylon the audio
quality of the latter being awful, obviously. I will be obliged
if you could provide me some links where I can get some of his

Dear Khalid Talat Mahmood Sahib: In continuation of my message
dated 16th instant I further contribute a tribute to "king of
Ghazils" rather "King of Musiqi" late Talat Mahmood. Incendently
I gone through the pages of 1958's magzine "Shama". It was
reported therin that Pakistani singer late Saleem Raza and Fazal
Hussain tried their best to copy the God gifted voice of Talat
Mahmood Sahib. But failed. The writed has narrated that Madam
Noorjehan used to listen "Gham-e-Zindgi ka ya Rub na mila koi
kinara" almost daily and always wept. the writer also narrated
his experience of music. He said have a pure silver bowl
(Katora). Fetch some water. Place it before radio or gramophone.
See the water. When Talat's voice would come the water would
vibrate. though the water also enjoyes the golden voice. Our
late T.V. artist Prof. Dildar Pervaiz Bhatti once stated in the
class room to his students in Punjabi that the voice and style
of Talat was un-matched. He also said that there are a number of
popular singers in Indo-Pak and sung thousands of songs. But the
graph of admiration from people in respect of Talat was always
at the zeniths {the highest point}. Kindly include the song of
Babal "chor-e-babal ka ghar" in the list of songs of the "King"
as this is not available here. Thanks. With warm regards.

Dear Khalid, Asslamoalikum: Thirty years before or more I read a
book written by late Shaukat Hussain Rizwi, ex-husband of Madam
Noor Jehan Malka-e-Taranm. He wrote that probably in late 40s a
prize distribution cerimony was held at Bumbai. When the compare
started to announce the results of play back singers and said "
Best play back singer" and then taken a pause before the name of
the singer was to be announced .... certainly for suspence,
during this pause (very little break) late Rafi immediately
stood up from his chair to receive the prize. But suddenly when
the name was announced the winner was TALAT MAHMOOD SAHIB. Dear
Khalid: I am listening his golden melodious "dard bhari awaz"

I'm a fan of your great father, Talat Mahmud. His songs as well
as the loving melody always come to me with a source of devine
pleasure and motivation. I wish his soul remains in peace and
harmony what he tried to create during his whole life.

Khalid bhai,
i was overjoyed at reading a report in Mid-Day about your
singing at the SHAAM E GHAZAL show for Celebrate Bandra Festival
on 20th November. i arrived at the venue half an hour before
showtime, only to find that all 500 seats were full one hour
before !!! i had to stand on the road with some 300 to 400 other
fans of yours and listen to you singing, but enjoyed your
performance immensly. if you remember, i had come backstage to
request you to sing 'Jalte hain jiske liye'. i will come for
your show again on 25th November at Bandra Reclamation, please
oblige by singing this number there. Talat saab has left behind
a part of himself in you, dear khalid bhai and you transported
us back to the golden era of music through the songs you sang of
your respected father.
From a lifelong Talat fan.

It is so nice to read such warm feelings for Talat Saheb that we
share with each other. It is not difficult to reason why we feel
the way we do about him.
I think his personality was such that there was nothing but
warmth for others and that reflects in our feelings for him.
Whenever you read an old interview or hear an old recording or
have heard him perform live, you will always recall a good word
from him for others. For his music directors, his fellow
singers, the actors for whom he has sung etc. The much sought
after Sham-e-gham doordarshan recording has him praise Messers
Dilip Kumar,Shammi Kapoor,Bharat Bhushan, Madan Mohan, Anil
Biswas etc etc as though the credit for his greatness goes to
them alone rather than his own voice.
Well what else can you say for a man who always seemed to
believe in giving and never in asking.
Keep sharing these feelings that you have, they make us readers
feel happy.

It was lovely hearing Talat Saheb's voice aired on the FM-from a
Delhi station last week end. Mr.Amin Sayani had his own good
words on Talat Saheb and the recordings of his earlier
interviews-some decades back were nostalgic. Talat Saheb's voice
track was so clear it seemed he was with Mr.Amin Sayani talking
live to the listners!
I believe Mr. Deshmukh and you, Khalid Bhai had helped in
putting the programme in place. It was equally refreshing to
hear your voice. Some who were listening to the FM radio along
with me were delighted to hear you. They asked me why arn't you
heard as often as some others. And I had to remind them of what
Talat Saheb had to said a little while earlier in his recording
three decades back on how singers are made in recent years. Your
Daddy never compromised and I said possibly neither will you for
a bit of cheap popularity.

My dear Khalid, I am an old acquaintance of your Dad
Shri Talat Mahmood, nephew of Resham Singh +DEEP in
London. I did try and call u in Bombay once but u were busy
doing your car.
Noticeably the last recording of Talat jee ghazal ke saaz Uthao
was an excellent collection of music compostions i donot
remember who composed the Music and the tunes but the lyrics and
everything is well composed.
But very surprisisngly on the inauguration of Ghazal ke saaz
uthao fotograph i donot find the introduction of the music
composer i could see Shri Dilip Saira jee and Talat jee but no
composer this is perhaps peculiar and also the lyrcist shud have
been there
May be u like to give your comments on that.
I still sing the good old melodies of Talat jee which I use to
do with friends way back in 1958.
To give you a recap I saw you first many years ago when in
Bombay TalatJee told me aboutlearning guitar and may be you were
going to school. I used to fly with British Airways and finally
i retired from British Airways Delhi Airport. I have two grown
up sons Maninder and Suprinder , Maninder lives in London and
Suprinder is in Losangles. Being a hobby singer we have a group
of friends who all admire and sing Talatjee's memorable melodies
and wonderful compositions done by Madan Mohan Anil Biswas and
other big comrades of the Music field.
I need the songs from Darbar film I wonder if you can comeback
to me and suggest how to get them.
Bye with love and regards Please pay mine and my wife's respect
to your Mom whom we had met when Talat Jee was living in this
World.
Yours affectionately

As a long time collector of vintage songs of 30s, 40s and 50s, I
have always been an ardent admirer of Talat Mahmood. His unique
velvety singing style and the incomparable "Soz" in his voice
combined well with the "Saaz" of musical giants of that era,
notably Anil Biswas, C. Ramchandra, Roshan, Madan Mohan and
Salil Chaudhary. Unfortunately, I have just learnt about your

Dear Shri Khalid
I have just come across your beautiful site devoted to your late
father, the one and only Talat Mahamood. I have been a great fan
of his from childhood, and even had the proud privilege of
arranging a concert by him here at Cannanore in 1966/67. As soon
as Talat Saab landed here, I gave him a list of my favourite
songs sung by him and I was very happy that he obliged me by
singing a so many of them. I had taped that concert, but that
was a 'zamana' of lousy equipment and the tape soon got damaged,
and I do not have any copies. Talat Saab was with me here in
Cannanore for more than 24 hours and I spent a great amount of
time with him. I have got several of his LPs but very very few
songs on Mp3 format, and I am trying to collect as many as I
can. I would be grateful if you can put all his most popular
songs - mainly filmi - once again so that I can refer to them
each week and download them. I would particularly like to have
the songs "Yaadon ka sahara na hota' from the film 'Pathar ka
Khwab'and "Itna na mujhse tun pyar badha' from "Chhaya". Could
you also direct me to some other good sites where I can down
load Talat Mahamood'd velvet voice.
Just a couple of weeks before he left this world, Sa Re Ga Ma
had their Annual Contest on Zee TV and Anil Biswas declared how
for him Talat Mahamood was impossible for any one to imitate. He
kept a picture of Talat Saab near his chair for all to see.
I hope you will continue keping his memory alive. Such singers
are rare and their works are genuine treasure.

Hi,
I am searching for a Bhajan sung by Talat sahab, which my uncle
heard years ago. As far as he remembers, the Lyrics were written
by Madhukar Rajasthani & Music was by Khayyam. The title goes
"Shyam Mere Nandkishore". If anyone has this bhajan, can you be

Dear Khalid Saheb,
It was a pleasant surprise for me to have stumbled upon the
wonderful site on Talat Saheb. Since my school days in the hill
station of Nainital where I come from, I have been an ardent
admirer of your illustrious father. His mellifluous and cultured
singing was a true reflection of his refined and generous
persona. It was really a touching and enriching experience to
glance through the site. I was overwhelmed by the memories of a
person who was so special to all of us. Thanks for creating such
a beautiful site in the memory of our beloved Talat Saheb.
In the information section you mention about a great number of
Talat Saheb's concerts. Till now I have failed to lay my hands
on any of his live recordings. Please help me in this regard. I
am dyiing to hear him live. Please do not hesitate to tell me
the price involved. If you have any such recordings, I will be
too happy to grab them. After all, we are entitled to share the
musical moments that owe their origin to the sombre vocals of
Talat Saheb. Hope you would help me out.

Dear Khalid,
You will agree it is time for non film songs on the download
page. Talat Mahmood ever was a creative person.
For starters:
Kya Itna Bhi Adhikar Nahi/MadhukarRajasthani(MR)/Khaiyyam(K)
Dil Ki Duniya Basa Gya Hai Kaun/Ahsan Mirthi/TM
Laj Bhari Ankhiyon Mein/MR/K
Sab Din Ek Saman Nahin Tha/Faiyyaz Hashmi/Kamal Dasgupta
I belive in your father's mould you are also a perfectionist!
I find 'Ai Andalleb ezar' without the poet/composer at one place
in the list and with Raj(Raz?) Meerthi/Girin Chakravarthy at
another place in the list ?

In the childhood I remember my father to be a great fan of

of the voice of Talatsaab. Its just like a `Mayurpankh' passing
by you touching your body which leaves you haunted by its
softness and its great style.
I came across this website while collecting the material for

Talatsaab ki shakhshiyat aur unki ghazal gayeki ke bare men kuch
kahne ke liye alfaz kam pad jate hain.samajh men nahi aata ki
unki kis kis khoobiyon ke bare men zikr karen,bas itna hi kahna
kafi hai ki woh jitne achche ghazal singer hain usse bhi kahin
zeyada haseen shakhshiyat ke malik hain.He is remarkable that
despite singing in an age where each singer carved out his/her
own niche, he remains an enduring favorite despite having a
rather limited prolificity. While I would no doubt rate him as
the best ever, he is simply best he is not for the age he is for
the ages.i love his songs,he sings from the bottom of heart.he
is simply the king of ghazal singing.
I dont think we need any words (and inappropriate words at that)

Great Legends like Talat Mahmood come around only once in a
lifetime. Talatji has touched millions of lives especially mine.
No one has such a sweet and expressive voice as his. His
rendition of "Mere Yaad Mein Tum.." is so touching that it
brings tears to my eyes each time I hear it. He has inspired
many great singers like Jagjit Singh who has praised him many
times. Thank you Talatji for enabling me to appreciate and love
music for what it really means. This is a wonderful website.

Unforgettable hero in our lives. Wish, besided Urdu, I would
have known some Persian as well to understand each word of his
ghazals. Even then his ghazals are like pearls and aab-e-hayaat.

Talat in reply to Sonu Nigam's specific request for the singer.

Dear Khalid,
I am writing this to you with utmost nostalgia in mind.
As i go through the site of Talat Sahab, my mind goes
back down memory lane to 1980-81, when Talat Sahab was
so kind to give a charity programme in Cuttack(Orissa)
in aid of
flood victims, the state was devastated by
floods that year. My father Mr. Rahman had happened
to know Talat sahab and when a great personality was
required to gather people for a charitable cause,
Talat sahab's name sprung to the mind immediately.
Talat sahab magnanimously agreed to sing for a just
cause, free of charge of course. In no time Talat sahab
was there in Cuttack and took the city and occassion
by storm. If my memory serves me right, i think khalid
u had also accompanied Talat sahab in that programme!
At the
moment i am staying in Dubai, with a small business
of my own. I
happened to discover this site and u can't believe the joy it
gives me,
Khalid u take care and do let us know if u need us
anytime. Thanks and Best regards.

Devdas is said to be doing good business but it is a story that
has a soul and those feelings come out from each character in
the story. I wonder if the latest version with a whole lot of
glamor brings out that soul that made Devdas kind of imortal. I
am not sure if I will see it, as I would like to remember Devdas
as portrayed by Bimal Roy. Those two songs- one a dead drunk
Devdas and the other a sentimental Devdas sang in Bimal Roy's
Devdas were classics. Drunks don't sing and yet Talat Sahib
brought out a master piece in Kisko khabar thi..One couldn't
make out if it was sung or recited, it was so near to bringing
out the best from a guy who is hopelessly pissed. The other
Mitwa.. was so heart rendering that it brought out the inner
feelings of Devdas who was in a terrible pain. They were a
perfect blend with Dilip Sahib's acting and could we rate them
as a benchmark performance by Talat Sahib that may never be
matched ? Well that was the greatness of Talat Sahib and I would
rather live with those memories of Devdas than see the hybrid
Devdas. It is nearly half a century since those songs were
recorded and they shall survive another half a century. That's
what you call a classic performance.

Hi,
Thanks for the fine series on Talat saab's geets and ghazals. I
have been searching for two popular Talat saab geets - in vain
so far. Would be wonderrful if you had them :
- Kya itna bhi adhikaar nahi
- Panchi preet ki reet nibha
And from your lists of Talat saab songs, I found one song which
I though had been rendered by Lata only. Have never heard the
Talat saab version :
Maangne se jo maut mil jaati, kaun jeeta is duniya me..
A classic number. Do try putting this one too when you get on to
the film songs again.
A suggestion - do have an updates section. I mean, the site is
so huge that its tough ocating any fresh updates on the page.
Thanks for this great site for all Talat saab fans.

Talat saab in another 1000 years !!
I have made my next set of requests (hope I am not bothering you

1. I missed out on "Tera khayal dil se" the last time as the
link was not working. If possible, could you please try and put
in on one more time ?
2. Bhool na jana preet (Do Raha)
3. Ae dil dekh (I think its from "Aabroo" - I saw the movie long

4. S.D.Batish composed "Khamosh hain sitare"

Believe it or not I and my family hosted his live show in
Walsall( a town near Birmingham, U.K.) somewhere between 1965-67
when he came along with Padmini, Ragini, Johny Walker and Shashi
kala. The show was a sell out! He was the only artist who I
managed to speak with. I asked him only one question as to who
makes the money in film industry. His answer"Only heroes and
heroines of the films" whilst others either loose or hardly make
any money. I wish I had kept his photograph taken with him at
the concert though the organiser was very possessive of the
artists as in 60"s they hardly visited abroad. I love his couple
of famous gazals like " tasvir teri mera Dil Behla na sake gi "

I feel a bit ashamed of myself. Inspite of being a die hard Talat
Sahib fan who refuses to relate to any other ghazal singer, it
took me four years to know of this outstanding work done by
Khalid Bhai. What a shame! It gives a deep insight into the life
and times of Talat Sahib that we never knew. It has kind of
brought a bonding amongst all of us who are admirers of the
legend. Some of us may end up being good friends thanks to the
website.
While we will continue to look at the web repeatedly for solace
and comfort, we should start sharing our experiances with Talat
Sahib. Some never met him and will never know what a wonderful
human being he was. His softness was not just in his voice but
in his total personality.
The first time I met him was around 1969. That was the first
time that I got an opportunity to listen to him in person when
he came to Kota for a concert. The next morning I had my first
interview for a job in Delhi. The choice was to skip the concert
and take an overnight train for the interview or give that a
skip and listen to Talat Sahib. I naturally listened to Talat
Sahib. The concert was a big hit and more than that was a
private sitting after the concert that went on till the wee
hours of the morning. A private number that I remember he sang
in that sitting was "Sahar ka waqt hai..." Talat Sahib always
equated me to that crazy twenty year old (in 1969)who was ready
to give up an interview to be with him. I may not have got that
job but I got the affection of Talat Sahib for the rest of my
life. That is something that I shall cherish as it is very
personal. He was always gracious when ever I met him after that.

This is in response to Mr. SESHADRI letter. Yes I grew up
listening to 7AM Purane filmoon ka program which ended with KL
Saigol song every day. I listened to it up till 1998. On sunday
Hamesha jawaan geet.
Yes I have 3 talat/madhubala zaveri duets. 2 from Apni Izzat and
one from Dost.
Madhubala duets from Rajput are very good but I am not aware if
any body got them.
May be Khalid sahib will know better. I am also Talat sahib +
Madhubala duet fan.
As Anil Biswas said all voices will be replaced in future but
Talat,s voice will never be.

Hello Talat fans
On Talatsaab's fourth death anniversary today, Radio Ceylon
(well, Sri Lanka Broadcasting Corporation, to give the correct
name but for thousands of us who grew up listening to SLBC in
the 60s and 70s it WILL always be Radio Ceylon!) broadcast a
special programme on Talatsaab. I was lost, listening to the
velvety voice . . .
I have a fairly good collection of Talat's filmy and private
numbers but it is in no way complete. I am looking for some
duets Talatsaab sang with Madhubala Jhaveri. Anyone of you can
help me have them? My email address is: pro@iimahd.ernet.in
Any info on Madhubala Jhaveri?
I also recollect a programme of Talatsaab I attended in Bombay
way back in 1974. I forget the date but the city had the highest
amount of rainfall that day. A friend and I had planned to go
for this programme. All transport systems just did not work and
my friend dropped out. From Malad to Churchgate, I somehow went
changing two BEST buses. Attendence was thin owing to heavy
rains but for those who were present (I, that is) it was a
memorable programme. The programme got over around midnight and
I was planning to spend the rest of the night at Churchgate
station. That was never to be because the gates of the station
were CLOSED. I just didn't know what to do! As luck would have
it, anothet Talat fan was walking with me. He said he knew the
warden of the Bombay University warden and would speak to him to
let me spend the night there. Sadashiv Menon managed to do that
and I slept peacefully. I have lost touch with Mr Menon. He was
with Bharat Overseas Bank that had just started.Sadashiv, where
are you?

How fast time flies away! It seems as if Talatsaab passed away
only the other day. Death waits for none and Talat saab was
destined to go away from us one day or another. But the pain
remains, for he was a gentleman among the artists of his era.
That era and that class of artists are also vanishing from our
midst. But for his fans, Talatsaab will be always be among them
through his immortal melodies. On his death anniversary, I will
keep him alive by playing some ghazals.

There was a series of geets (non-film) that Talat saab released
with Anilda in the late 50s.I managed to get 2 of them - "Phir
pyar kiya" and "Sitaron tum ghawah rehna". Any pointers to any
of the others ?
Anilda is the greatest com[poser to have stepped into films -
and his combo with Talat saab was sheer magic.

You will never hear a voice say "Arrey Awaaz Dheeme Karna" when
Talat Sahab is singing such was the effect of the gentle caress
in the voice.Talat Sahab is by miles the most soothingly
beautiful voice mankind has ever heard.One thing i Noticed and
would like to mention here is the fact that his voice and
singing were of such a high quality that rarely did one ask the
name of the composer when one hears any of his song.
This is a wonderful website and wiil be savoured by all Talat

Great tribute to a great singer. Talat's interview by SaritaSethi on Bombay Doordarshan was one of the best where Talat
Sahab mentioned that he did not think that Hindustan would ever
have a voice like KL Saigal again.
I wish to add that we will not see the likes of Talat either.
I had once written a fan letter to him and I was absolutely
stunned to get a letter back from him. Written in a
beautiful hand, he agreed that the age of great music in
Hindi movies was past. I cherish that letter as one of my

Dear Khalid,
Talat Mahmood is not only our favourite singer, he is the only
singer we listen to. I now live in Columbia, SC, USA, but for
the past 20 years I have listened to many of his songs, a
countless times. I never, ever get tired of listening. Always
makes me feel nostalgic. The songs, all hits, each one better
than the other, are real treasures. Never again will we see the
likes of another Talat Mahmood again. It's as though he is a
part of my life, my family. I have seen his documentary "An
evening with Talat" several times. It is a classy programme. He
is true royalty. He dwarfs Rafi, and Mukesh with his royal voice
that was never commercialized. Pure in all aspects, Talat brings
joy and happiness to me like nothing else. He was like a
heavenly enitity that walked upon this earth. Immortal. I wish I
had a chance to see him.

I have grown up listening to the immortal melodies of Talat. So
much so that his songs have become a part of my very being.
Blessed are the ones like me with such a wonderful website as
this, which gives more information and a forum to possibly
interact with like minded devotees of Talat. Thanks Khalid!

Millions of thanks for launching this website for the benefit of
countless fans of Talat Saab. You’re a worthy son of a
worthy father; I salute you for this commendable job! There is
not a single day when I do not listen to his film/private songs;
in fact my son has set the multimedia hotkey program on my
computer to some selected songs recorded (in the MP3 format)
from the cassettes we have bought. So I pursue my academic work
on the computer with his melodious voice in the background. In
my view he was the most charming and likeable personality in the
film world. The website is most informative and the photographs
are beautiful. Can you introduce columns on YEAR and LYLICIST in
the song lists (solo as well as duet). Apart from these
selections, can you please also provide a list of private songs
along with year, lyricist and music director?
I was deeply moved by his voice recorded in the 5-part Legends
series (HMV Cassettes No. RPG/STHV 831943-7) when he said, “Yehi
dua karaunga sabse, apne sunanewalon se bhi aur Allah se bhi, ki
log inhin ganon ke jariye se mujhe yaad karen. Jo kuch
achchhaiyan in ganon ne unko di hain ya kuchh unki zindagi mein
koi madad ki hain mere ganon se,… ye sabse bara reward hai mere
vaste” What I could not say to him, I am telling you that his
songs have helped me a lot towards achieving perfection; they
bring solace in sorrow moments and I get recharged. I firmly
believe that a person who develops a taste for Talat saab and
his songs can commit no crime, in fact he cannot do anything
wrong in his life, such is the magic, charm and ‘positive’
feedback in his voice. He combined in his voice sensitivity,
romanticism and spirituality.

Talat saab has been my favourite and only favouriet all these
years.His melodious voice stands for all that India was in the
50s- peace-loving(Nehru?),soft and cultured.Far removed from the
brashes of Yahoo and the screeches of the 70s, his voice stood
for all the romantics and sentimentalists. I propse that all
Talat fans(at least in India)share their collections. A sort of
net-publn can be begun and any song collections can be recorded
and posted. I possess some 200 Talat songs and shall post a list
of them soon and this I shall convey thorugh this site. Anyone
wanting any collections may mail to me. Hoipe others respond
too-I hope to spread it to all lovers of Talat and old film
music.

The tribute to the Melody King is marvellous. Talat Saab was one
of those, who leave their footmarks on the sands of times.
Though I am quiet young (read 27 years) I have grown up
listening to his melodies - 'Talat Mahmood in blue mood' and
others. My all time favourites are 'Raat ne kya-kya kwab
dikhaye' from "Ek gaon ki kahani", & 'Ashkon mein jo paya hai'
among others.
I am priveleged to be born in a family, which is full of music
lovers and more so lovers of Talat Saab.
My rich tributes to the Music Legend and sincere prayers for the
departed soul.

Wow! This website about Talat Mahmood is mind-boggling and has
left me dazed. What a great singer he was! I remember that Talat
had sung at a function organised by Dena Bank in the late
Fifties. I had a farmaish of my own and had requested Talat
Mahmood to sing his beautiful song "TASVEER TERI DIL MERA BEHELA
NA SAKEGI" and he had graciously agreed. Though I am 71 years
old, I can still remember the mellifluous and melodious voice of
Talat Mahmood reverberate in my heart. Thank you Khalid Mahmood

Dear khalidji
A great tribute indeed to a great singer. Congrats.
Are you aware that your father has sung one malayalam song!. I
dont remember the movie, however it should be in the early
seventees. The lyrics goes like this...
"katalee neelakatalee ,nin athmaavilum neerunna chindakal
oundoe.."
The meaning is "Oh sea, blue sea, do you also have poignent
memories in your mind, the sleepless nights of memories of a
beautiful girl".
It was really a class talat song. If you have the audio, can you
put this up on the site.

Talat will always be my favourite singer and it was love at

song "sham-e-gham ki kasam" a few years back.I graduated to
listening to ghazals later and found them a class apart.I am
grateful to HMV for bringing out the GOLDEN MOMENTS collection
of ghazals and am looking forward to their new volumes. I am

but am unable to find it in the market, can you help me.

like me failing with words to describe it. pyas kuch aur
bhi.......! there are fans of your father with a unique love for
talat sahib (marhoom),and that love is envied by fans of other
artists. rafi marhoom asked c ramchandra once ( how can i bring
some sweetness in my voice like talat, ramchandra said; its been
given by bhagwan).from your website i realize that talat marhoom
created music for meri zindgi he zalim (ghazal) and dil ki dunya
basa(geet);these are from heavens...! i especially mention anil
biswas, ramchandra and fayaz hashmi for music and poetry in some
lovely ghazals. in good old days urdu from lucknow had nazakat
like french...! and no one can ever give that adaigee to ghazal
like talat marhoom marhoom. in my humble view talat marhoom was
the best ghazal artist ever. in 1958 only once in life i heard,
unke jalwe and unse umeed e runumai he,kya nigahoon ki mout aai
