#PanchamDa #RDBurman
Panchamda was born to Sachin Karta & Mira Burman today on 1939 in Kolkata.
He composed songs for over 350 films n many non film songs both in Bengali n Hindi. he also made music in 4 other languages like Telegu, Tamil, Oriya, Marathi.
But did you know #PanchamDa acted as well? Do you know the movie(s) in which he acted?
In Bhoot Bangla he made his debut in acting. a clip from Bhoot Bangla along with Mehmood. any other movie?
yes, #PanchamDa acted in another movie, pyar ka mausam. watch
#PanchamDa was the 1st person who introduced electronic organ in Indian Films with the song 'O mere Sona re' (Teesri Manzil)
One of my favourite songs of @ashabhosle ji... so joyful n awesome rendition 🙏🙏
#PanchamDa played the mouth organ himself in the song 'hai Apna Dil To Awara' sung by Hemant Kumar in the film 'Solva Saal'.
When #PanchamDa was only 9 years old he composed a tune which his father Sachin Karta used in Fantoosh. the song was 'ai meree topee palat ke aa'
#PanchamDa was the first to introduce the Brazilian bossa nova rhythm in Hindi film music - the song was "Maar dalega dard-e-jigar", sung by Asha, in "Pati Patni". That rhythm has since been endlessly used for film music.
My favourite #PanchamDa and Asha ji song is Katra katra Milti hain. there are many more, Do Lafzon ki hain Kahani, Aao Na Gale Lagalo Na, Roz Roz Aankhon Tale, Goriya Kahan Tera Des Re etc etc
