Singer.Amir Bai Karnataki.
Movie. Sindoor.
Lyrics. Qamar Jalalabaadi.
Music. Khemchand Parkash.
 
Khemraj was born (1907) in family of celebrated singers of Rajputana (now called Rajistan). His father, Pandit Govardhan Parshad was court singer at the Jaipur Palace. Khemraj as a teenager also learnt khathak dance. At the age of 19 he was appointed as court singer by the Maharaja of Bikaner. It was followed by service in the Kingdom of Nepal. Later he joined the music team of Calcutta Radio. Thereafter he also had the opportunity to work with Timir Baran at the New Theatres.  The main job of the composer of music for films is to achieve rhythmic unison between the scenes, actions and sentiments. He has also to harness the songs with pauses and tunes, matching the poetry. Naushad Sahib considers Khemchand Parkash to be his teacher in music.
No doubt he was the best decorator of the sound track of films in Bombay.
He joined Bombay Talkies in 1948 and composed music for films Asha and Ziddi. In Ziddi he extensively used Jal-trang and composed songs in Rajistani style to match with the theme of the story.
During a visit to Ashok Kumars residence, he found a young boy murmuring some Saigols song. He was Ashoks younger brother Kishore Kumar. After his willingness Kishor was taken as playback (of Dev-Anand) singer for the first time in film Ziddi.
 Yeh Kaun Aya Rey Karke Yeh Solha Singhar- Yeh Kaun Aya First Duet of Kishore with Lata.
 Khemchand gave language to the dialogue starved film "Mehal" through the background music. The film had the most classical combination of sound and image thanks to the perfect night photography by Josef Wirsching - then Cameraman. Rehearsal of the theme song Ayega Anewala with Lata continued for several days. Khemchander Parkash forecasted to Lata Beti - yeh bohut pasand kia jaye ga but alas being sick he was unable to see its success and advancement of  Lata through it.
 Khamosh Haey Zamana, Chup Chaap Hein Sitarey
  With the demise of Khemchand in August 1950 the Bombay Talkies became silent.

  • Mirzaji, your uploads have stolen my sleep today. See, it's 12:45 A.M., but I am at the computer listening to both your songs of yesterday. My body says, sleep! My ears and heart protest, No ,not yet; let's listen one more time. So here I am, yawning but still not giving up. Now you know the grip of your clips on my psyche.

  • Chamogaa Ji.. Apke iss Pyar Ne Hamien Bhi Kherab Kiya Hei....
