Talat Mahmood (February 24, 1924 -- May 9, 1998) was a popular Indian playback singer and film actor. A recipient of Padma Bhushan he is famous for his ghazals, resulting in a title of "king of ghazals" bestowed upon him by fans and critics.

Talat saab as he is now referred to, has often been described as a singer with a silky voice. His voice never suited loud songs, songs that demanded a high-pitched voice. Shouting or screaming didn't suit him and so he avoided those kinds of songs too. He only sang soft, romantic, lyrical, ghazals.Talat saab went for his vocal training under PT.S C R.BHATT in Bhatkhande music college lucknow....

Personality;
People who remember Talat describe his nature as a quiet one. He is often written and described as a decent man, as his voice reflected that decency and sense of calm. Music directors who worked with him claim that when one would listen to him, you would get the feeling that he's a soft-hearted man. As Naushad aptly reflects about Talat; "Because one's character reflects one's art too"....

Interesting facts;

* For Talat's film 'DIL E NADAAN', famous producer A.R. Kardar launched an 'All India Beauty Contest' to hunt for a new heroine to act opposite this immensely popular and much sought after Singing Star. The winner was beautiful Peace Kanwal.

* In 1956, Talat became the first ever Indian playback singer to go abroad for commercial concerts.

* On Talat's US Concert Tour, Talat's popularity prompted famous New York television host Joe Franklin to invite Talat on his hugely popular programme "The Joe Franklin Show" watched by over 25 million Americans. He introduced Talat to American audiences as "The Frank Sinatra Of India !"

* 1954, the year Binaca Geet Mala switched to a countdown system; the topper was Talat Mahmood's "Jayen to jayen kahan".

* Producer-Director-Studio Owner Mehboob Khan of 'Mother India' fame, would always put his finger on Talat's throat and tell him "Khuda ka noor tumhare gale mein hai!"

* Talat's first recording: "Sab din ek samaan nahin hote" - for HMV in 1941. * Talat's first film recording: "Jago musafir jago" for film RAJLAXMI in 1945.

* Talat's last recording: Ghazal album titled "GHAZAL KE SAAZ UTHAO" for HMV in 1986.

  • Superb music and lyrics by Hasrat Jaypuri, but subtitles are completely wrong and way off. Thank for the great info about Talat saheb. My father used to play these songs on tape and still plays it on dvds

  • @ovmcpaof - You are most welcome, my dear friend.

    Yes, though I do not know the language, I too feel that subtitles are not up to date.

    What happened was that when I downloaded this video years back, they were THERE and I could not even erase them.

    Thank you.

  • This is better to upload one song and give description of singer/film. Its nice way of uploading music.

  • @ufdtrust - I am sorry, my friend. I could not get what you mean. Can you please explain?

    Thank you.

  • @yuanyuanyuanyin Means you uploaded song of film Daag and singer is Tallat Mahmood. In the description of your video you gave details about Film/Singer Tallat Mahmood. That require alot of Dedication and efforts which is a nice way to upload music. Means Great job done.

  • @ufdtrust - Thank you my dear friend for your extremely kind words towards this channel.

    I just wanted to make sure before I make a reply.

    I think, there should be the word "WAY" in between the words "better to" LOL

    Though this way is time consuming, this is my small way of honouring those legends and we OWE them at least that respect, I strongly believe.

    After all, they were "part" of the BEST MUSIC IN THE WORLD, HINDUSTANI MUSIC!

    Thank you again and may God bless you.

see all
