@Rohit, I'm sure Burman Dada would have remembered his mother Nirupama Devi, who was a princess from the royal family of Manipur. His eyes would have been wet while singing.

@@lalwanimoti Please just listen to the starting of the song, when he is screaming Ma O Ma, u wl feel as if he is crying. It spontaneously brings tears in my eyez.

@Rahul Biswas ji, Dada jaise log roz nahin paida hote hain. Sangeet hi unka jeevan tha. Raj bhag chhod ke, MA ka pehla saal complete karke, Calcutta mein classical music ki shikhsha li. Tripura ke gaon mein, paidal ya boat mein bhatak kar, folk music ki khoj mein nikle. Baad mein UP aur Bihar ke gaaon mein folk music ki talash ki. Mahal ke prince zamin par baith kar, diye ki roshni mein unke saath gaaya. Sabke baare mein achcha bole, kisi ki buraayi nahin ki. Unke baare mein jitna likho kam hai. Kai kitaab unke upar nikle, English, Bangla, Marathi, lekin woh kitaabon se kayi jyaada aage thay. Unke jaanne walon ne unke baare mein baat ki hai, 170 videos hain, sabhi dekhiye. Aap ke comments achche lage, bahut shukriya. 🙏

Kawish, I had the same question in mind. Yogeshji was a very simple human being. He has written so many good songs yet did not get a single award all his life. These awards are result of a lot of lobbying and PR efforts, yogeshji lacked these skills. He used to live in goregaon west very close to where I used to stay. I have seen him many a times he was known to my uncle a very down to earth person. If he had used PR during his career he would have been much more famous then many of the other lyrics writers. Due to lack of publicity he was never nominated for an award.

Sharad Agarwal I love him, his original, very original, simplicity, his simple struggle, and love him too much!!

@Dylan_434, Neeraj became very popular after he worked with SDBurman in 5 films. His interviews are on this channel. Yogesh worked only in 2 films of SDBurman. He had high hopes. When Burman died, Yogesh cried for 7 days. He told me.

@@lalwanimoti Thank you Moti ji

@@Pinto_555 Welcome anytime.

@kemo lollen, True. Honest to the core.

Sushil Jain ji, Humein khushi hai ki Yogesh ji ka interview aap ko pasand aaya. Umeed hai ki aap ne unke saare parts dekh liye honge. Aur kai interviews hamare hain KZfaq mein Burman Dada ke upar, zaroor dekhiyega. Humein likh kar bata dene ka shukriya. Yogesh sahib bahut hi guni aadmi hain.

Moti Lalwani ... अवश्य रूचि लेकर सुनना पसन्द करूगा

Sushil Jain Humein khushi hui ki aap ne waqt nikal kar Yogesh ji ke videos dekh liye. Bahut hi umda writer aur layak insaan hai. Bade pyar se baat karte hain. Tabhi to aaj bhi unki izzat hai aur kaam mil raha hai. 4/5 pehle unka janam din tha to humne unko phone karke badhai di thi.

Moti Lalwani मोती जी ,योगेश जी युग युग जीवे उनके गीत युगयुग तक बजते रहे सुनी सुनी जिन्दगी मे याद आते रहेगे उनके गाने सुनकर धडकप भी गाते रहेगी

There are more videos of him, this is only Part One. Please see them all.

@@lalwanimoti I have seen.Thanks

@deepak kumar, Yogesh stays in Jogeshwari West. Four days back, i.e on 19th March was his birthday when I called him up and wished him. Even otherwise I keep on calling him sometimes. He is a member of our SD Burman group on Facebook. Lately, he is not keeping good health, and stays alone. His cousin who stays separately, looks after his needs.

@@lalwanimoti Industry to matlabi hai, jab tak zaroorat hoti hai, tabhi tak poochti hai. Lekin ye aapke-hamare jaise fans hain jo poori zindagi inhein apne dilo mein basa ke rakhte hain. Thank you so much for this lovely gesture.🙏🙏

Ajay Suri Ajay, no one is a lesser mortal. I am glad you have liked the interview. Have you seen all uploaded interviews so far, some 25 of them. More are in pipeline and you will get notification if you subscribe to my channel. You get to listen from those who were part of the action those days hence they give all authentic information.

It's a beautiful impish song. Thanks Gauri.

@Sadhan Hamal, Thanks.

What you true about SD Burman is 100% true. I have proofs for such information on SD Burman. I have also many proofs of Pancham praising his father, during his interviews and in published articles. I have audio of Pancham speak in glowing terms about his father. Dada was a 'Dada' of film industry, respected by everyone.

@@lalwanimoti Koi shaque !

After seeing the picturisation of his song, if he didn't like it, SD used to say, 'Hamara gaana ko waste kar diya' irrespective of whichever banner the film ws. He ws such a cut throat person, once he told singer Mukesh on his face, Tum thoda besura gaate ho. SD never compromised with his self-respect. He ws a great personality. Such a person wl never b found again.

Ravi Tripathi Official Very sweet and down to earth.

@Nara Simha ji, Yogesh ji is indeed a very simple man. He stays not far from where I live. Please let me know through Email, when I Mumbai, I can take you to him. I have sent you mail this morning. Thanks for comments.

@@lalwanimoti May I pl knw ur E-Mail address Sir ? I'm from Mumbai only.

HQ Chowdhury Thank you HQ ji.

@@lalwanimoti I think HQ ws refering to SD saying 'wonderful', bcoz whenever SD used to b happy with Kishorekumar's voice, he used to say 'Wonderful' in his typical style.

@@Rohit-oj5dv HQ is praising the interview and what Yogesh has said in his interview.

@@lalwanimoti But there is a subtle pun intended as HQ ws refering to Burman Saab's typical 'Wonderful' word. If u please call me on phone I wl show u many recordings of Kishorekumar n Amit Kumar where they also said about this 'Wonderful' word used by Burman Saab.

@@Rohit-oj5dv He could be using as a pun, but it's due his liking the interview.

Dear Sir he has written songs for more then 110 films,100 tv serials, more than 200 music album i think this much work is enough

Ye apni apni kismet hai.chand pilate nahi sabir sansarme.

Even then some ask me questions! :)

Lage Raho Dada, Hum saath hain :D

Mrinal Devburman Someone asked me yesterday on Facebook, "Is Part Two also available?"

Moti Lalwani So cute question Dada :D

Drfaisal ji, I’m doing good. Shukriya.

Dada used to sing to explain and sing the tune to Yogesh, who would tape record and take home to write lyrics. He had the mini tape recorder in which the smaller tapes were used, if you remember that. As per Yogesh he lost all those tapes during his severe illness when his weight reduced to some 36 kg and he almost lost his life. Fortunately he recovered not knowing what happened to the tapes.

@@lalwanimoti Oh no, what a loss. We lost priceless gems.

Brajagopal Paul Very true. I'm one of those who has been lucky to keep on drinking amrit.

Those days are gone when good lyrics were written and appreciated.
