 Majrooh Sultanpuri |

Majrooh
Sultanpuri [1st
Oct.1919-24th May 2000]
A Sultan of Words &
Phrases (25th
Dadasaheb Phalke Award
Recipient – 1993)
Born as Asrar Hasan Khan, on 1st
October,1919 at Sultanpur,U.P. he received his early education in
Urdu, Persian and Arabic.
Young Asrar was trained at an Unani College in
Lucknow to become a Hakim and he even practiced as an Unani
practioner for a year. Little was know that this young man was
destined to create not just ripples but storm in the Urdu Literary
world with his phenomenal versatility in poetry and film song
writing as Majrooh Sultanpuri.As the first poet to be honoured
with the 25th Dadasaheb Phalke Award in 1994 for the year 1993,
Majrooh Sultanpuri was the right candidate for the award.Young
Hakim Asrar's interest in Urdu poetry rose and he started to
pursue it leaving behind the lucrative and much settled profession
of being a medicine man. It was this quest for poetry that brought
him into the limelight.
In association with progressive
poets like Jigar Moradabadi, Moin Hasan Jazbi and Faiz Ahmed, he
polished his pen and furnished it with biting edge of protest and
national flavour. It was during this period, when he had joined
the band of nationalist poets that he was arrested and imprisoned.
It was after his released that he took to the pen name of Majrooh
and his pen poured love and the bitter sweet pain of love.
Majrooh
Sultanpuri had written more than 8000 songs for over 330 films
(including 3 in Bhojpuri). In the 50 years span of his career as a
lyricist, Majrooh was at ease with his songs and never did once
his poetry ever tripped the thin line of decency.
He was at ease with an emotional
song like Utha e ja unke sitam aur jiye ja, or a light masti
number like Panch Rupaiya Baraa Aanaa, romantic song like Ai
phoolon ki rani baharon ki malika tera muskurana gazab ho gaya or
a cabaret number like piya tu ab to aa ja.
Credit should go to Majrooh for
introducing the dialogue styled lyrics in Hindi films of the 60's
like Haal kaisa hai janab ka? Kya khayal hai aap ka? , from the
film Chalti Ka Naam Gadi. Songs of the kind have stood the test of
time and are still popular even today. Poets and film lyricists
take refuge to this style of songs even today to get the situation
lively, but the line of decency that was drawn by Majrooh has
somehow disappeared.
