The pioneer of globalizing Hindi film music is Rahul Dev Burman (RD Burman). June 27 is the birthday of that 'Panchamada'. If he had lived, he would have reached 85 today. And it can be said with certainty that if Rahul Dev Varman were present today, he would have filled the entire world with a swoon of tunes in perfect harmony with the present generation. Because, it is no exaggeration to call Pancham the visionary of the Indian music industry! All the songs he has given since the seventies are way ahead of time. However, even though he is not present today, five songs composed by him saw the light of release on the occasion of his birthday.
He composed music for a Bengali film forty years ago. But in Kalachakra, those songs never saw the light of release. Asha Bhosle, Amit Kumar, Kavita Krishnamurthy, Kumar Shanu, Swapna Mukhopadhyay, Jojora (Nathalia) appeared with panchamanama today on his birthday. Four Bengali songs and one Hindi song were released under the title 'Panche Pancham'.
The songs can be heard on Fixbag Music's YouTube channel. This is a special move to make Pancham's birthday memorable. What songs can be heard there? The song 'Chokhe Kekhe' is sung by Kumar Shanu and Asha Bhosle in duet voice. Kavita Krishnamoorthy has sung the song 'Bhalobasa Bhalosha'. Asha sings 'Khelis Ken Didivai' in a solo. Amit Kumar and Swapna Mukhopadhyay sang 'Aami Tumi Dhonete'. And 'Tera Dil Mera Hua' Hindi song sung by Jojo."
