The name Gulzar definitely needs no introduction. He is one gem of Bollywood who knows exactly how to weave magic with words and has the power to sweep you off your feet.
Gulzar, who was born as Sampooran Singh Kalra to a family of doodhwaalas in Jhelum, Pakistan, has written a song for emotion that exists in us – from falling in love for the first time to facing betrayal to having an extramarital affair.
On the 82nd birthday of the national award winner, here are 10 songs that prove there’s no one quite like the legendary poet, lyricist, writer and director.
Ek sau solah chaand ki raatein, ek tumhare kaadhe ka til
Geeli mehndi ki khushbu, jhoot moot ke shikwe kuchh
Jhoot moot ke waade bhi sab yaad kara doon !
Mera wo samaan lauta do.
