About the author Mukesh Chand Mathur, Mukesh for short, was born to a middle class family in Delhi. None other than the leading actor of those years Motilal recognized his talent. A far relative to Mukesh, Motilal, was very much impressed by this young man's voice. He personally took interest in this young man took him to Mumbai and was given training under Pundit Jaganath Prasad. As a singer, his first break came with the song 'Dil jalta hai to Jalne de', from the movie Pehli Nazar in 1945, picturised on Motilal himself. Accused of imitating K. L. Saigal, Mukesh created his own style, from the films made by Naushad like Mela and Andaaz. Especially in Andaaz his solo numbers 'Tu Kahe Agar', 'Jhoom Jhoom ke Naacho Aaj', 'Hum Aaj Kahin Dil Kho Baite', 'Toote na Dil Toote na' became great hits and the song of despair 'Zinda Hoon Is Tarah', from Aag, literally made people cry. Later Mukesh teamed with Raj Kapoor and went on to sing songs for his movies. This team became an extended team with Shankar- Jaikishen, Shailendra and Hasrat Jaipuri. All these people became accountable for some of the most memorable hits in the Hindi film industry. The songs 'Mera Joota Hai Japani' (Shree 420), 'Kisi ki Muskurahaton pe ho Nissar' (Anadi), 'Dost, Dost Na Raha' (Sangam), 'Jaane Kahan Gaye Woh Din' (Mera Naam Joker), sung with all the emotions and intonations proves that nobody can match this great singer
