One
thing that Pancham da was not known for - in his personal life - was
getting melancholic. Whatever I have read or heard about him, points out
to a person with huge appetite - for living king size. For him, life
was meant to be lived joyously - without worrying about tomorrow.
This trait of him was also reflected in most of his compositions. One such song,
even though he was not credited with but he was involved in for getting the
right notes, was Aaj phir jeene ki tamanna hai., from Guide...but this
was SD's composition
In my opinion, from his own repertoire,
the song that reflects his personality the most was this one - from
Kasme Vaade, the movie that starred Amitabh, Rakhi & Randhir Kapoor.
The composition itself is a
roller-coaster ride, racing from fast-paced rhythm to getting down to
low beats with RD's voice. The song begins with a ditty on yesteryear's
dancing craze - Bhagwan, before Amit Kumar & RD take over the song
completely.
So here is the song I was talking about - penned by Gulshan
Bawra.
Kal Kya Hoga, Kisko Pata
Abhi Zindagi ka Lelo Mazaa..
