 PANKAJ UDHAS...The Ghazal Supremo
PANKAJ UDHAS -- Tuning into the big bucks now His voice lulls you to sleep, puts your mind in the relax mode and more than anything else, creates an air of serenity and calm. It conjures up visions of a gurgling brook, of the soft and gentle breeze, and of the soft chiming of bells. Meet the ghazal supremo, Pankaj Udhas, the man with a velvety voice.
 He has been around for over three decades, and has over 37 albums to his credit. His recently released albums Jaaneman, Humsafar and Lamha feature on almost all countdown shows. For the singer, things could not have been better. He has now also turned entrepreneur by having joined the Dot Com Express. He has launched two websites, horrorunlimited.com, the world’s first interactive horror website, and musik121.com, a complete music site. Riding high on a wave of success the soft-spoken Pankaj spoke on his new role as an entrepreneur. "Music being a passion, it is natural that I now diversify into the business aspect of the entertainment industry. Musik121 is one of the most comprehensive sites on Indian and international music. It covers a wide range of genres like Hindi, film, Indi-Pop, ghazals, classical, rock, pop and trance to name a few. The site explores all forms of music in great depth, and carries up-to-date information about music and the people behind it. It will also provide opportunities to upcoming singers through its online music label. I also plan to hold a number of ground events to support the site, and make it the best and most popular site on music," he explains. Pankaj has lent his voice for the just released Ghaath. "Tujhe dekh ke dhadakta hai dil is a beautiful number which I enjoyed singing. I have sung many film songs, which have been very well received, and I hope my fans enjoy this one too," Pankaj says.
The singer is quite excited about the new venture he has launched for which he has many plans. "Musik121 is an ideal platform for audio companies to showcase their forthcoming releases because there are many contests on-line, and it is interactive as well. Another thing that will be of great help to the industry is the complete in-house web development which we offer. It is the right set-up to create websites of films, designing of CDs and cassette inlays and sound-streaming," reveals Pankaj.
Brushing aside claims that ghazals are now on the decline, he firmly states that ghazals can never die. In fact he is convinced that for the die-hard Indian romantic, ghazals are a way of life. He goes on to add that this year it were ghazal albums that sold the maximum.
Explaining how he manages to retain that special flavour in his songs, the singer says, "In all my albums I have always tried to present ghazals in a manner more appealing to the masses, yet maintaining the essence of ghazals. Singing ghazals by itself is a very limited area with little scope for innovation. But as far as possible, I have tried to use this limited space."
As of his musical future he says, "I am working on a few projects. An album with HMV has been released, and I also plan to sing old classics. I will start with some of the old poets, and I have thought of making an album like this a permanent feature in the coming years. Apart from that, I am looking at a very different kind of fusion album, which is purely my innovation. But I’d rather not talk about it now. Let music lovers wait for it."
So, for now, the ghazal maestro is set to taste success once again, this time as a businessman, but still peddling music.

 Re: PANKAJ UDHAS...The Ghazal Supremo
The King of Hearts Radhika Sasankh
From a youngster struggling to make a name in the film industry as a playback singer to being the most popular Ghazal singer now, Pankaj Udhas has come a long way. Today he has carved a niche of his own in the Indian music industry and has his own loyal and ever-increasing fan following. His ghazals, rendered in his honey-and-milk voice never fail to touch one’s heart with the emotion they are so full of.
The star was in Chennai last week for the promotion of his latest album ‘Jaaneman’, his 37th. Satyamonline grabbed him for an exclusive interview.
Why are there so few artistes singing Ghazals today compared to the deluge of performers in Indipop?
Indipop is the easy way to fame today. Ghazal singing needs ‘saadhna’. You have to learn the language to get into this form of music. But today, if one is good looking and has a good voice, he gets an offer right away. “OK, you start working out in a Gym and cut an album, we’ll do a video and make you a star”. So its obvious that any youngster who does not have wise people around would jump into the race. And many of these youngsters have become stars. So, that has inspired a huge generation to get into this kind of pop singing. I have no objection to pop; in fact pop has its own positive areas. I am a big fan of Beatles and I feel Beatles were the people who really knew Pop. The present generation should try to sing something, which can help create an identity.
But is there an effort being made to spot new Ghazal- singing talent?
During my Television show, we spotted some very very talented people. I think these youngsters are waiting in the wings. It’s just a question of time, another six months or so, before you see many new faces in the field. There are youngsters who are working very hard.
Why is that even very popular and well known stars like you are being sidelined in music videos and album covers, while models featuring in the video take centrestage?
I agree. But as far as videos go, I’d rather not be shown as something that would clash with my personality. If I start wearing funny clothes and start dancing around, people will not accept it. I think my limited presence in videos is quite justified. Music companies these days sell models too, to attract customers or whatever. I don’t think it’s the right strategy. I have actually taken up this point with a couple of audio companies and in future albums you see a change for the better.
What do you like doing best- singing live or in a studio? Why?
Singing live is most satisfying. I’ve done that all my life.
Please tell us about your new albums- ‘Humsafar’ and ‘Jaaneman’?
Right from day one I’ve always been a very innovative person in the limited area of Ghazal singing. In this quest for finding something new, ‘Jaaneman’ came along. ‘Jaaneman’ is an album based on the philosophy of ‘Sufism’. There are a lot of songs about the rapport between a human being and God. We have stuck to quality poetry, quality melody, but given it a contemporary sound.
Please tell us about your new music portal.
It’s called ‘Musik 121’ and it is likely to be up in the first week of August. The idea behind the name is to be one to one with the people. It’s going to be a complete site - from International to Indian music covering every genre. I am devoting one whole section to Ghazals.
Which one of your compositions is your personal favorite?
It’s very difficult to say or name one. But I would say that ‘Deewaron se...achha lagta hai’ was one of my favorite compositions.
Have you had a role model that you always looked up to?
Well, in fact there were two people who initiated me to Ghazal music, the Maulvi who taught my brother Urdu and secondly Mehdi Hassan. I’ve been a great admirer of Mehdi Hassan and his style of singing. He has been a great inspiration and role model for me.
Who do you think is the greatest Ghazal singer of all times?
I consider two people- Begum Akthar and Mehdi Hassan.
What do you do in your free time?(If you have any at all!)
I unfortunately don’t have free time at all. I’ve always wanted to play Cricket, Tennis and Golf. I’ve always wanted to listen to loads and loads of music; wanted to read books. But I am not able to do any of these things. I satisfy myself with watching tennis and cricket on TV and listening to music.
What are your future plans?
I am working on a few projects. I have one plan of singing old classics; am going to start with some of the old poets and I’ve decided to make that as a permanent feature in the coming ten years. Apart from that I am looking at a very different kind of fusion album, my innovation.
What is the future of Ghazals in India?
Very bright, because Ghazals have tremendous content and melody. I think poetry and melody can never die.
Finally, how do you like Chennai?
The best thing about this place is that there is no hypocrisy here. I like Chennai as a city and I like the people of Chennai. I love South Indian food.

 Re: PANKAJ UDHAS...The Ghazal Supremo
She never compromised on her dignity Pankaj Udhas
To me, Lata Mangeshkar has been so many things. As a child, I used to sing her songs on stage right from the third standard.
At the age of 10, I remember singing the famous Ay mere watan ke logon, just after the Chinese aggression at a Navratri festival in Rajkot where I used to live. I was given Rs 51 for it by a member of the audience -- and Rs 51 was a good sum then, especially for a school kid!
I vividly remember my first meeting with her at her house in Prabhu Kunj. This must have been around '70 or '71. I had accompanied my elder brother Manharbhai who had some work with her.
It was an unforgettable experience meeting her in the flesh, as she had been my idol since childhood. She, I remember, asked Manharbhai, 'Does he also sing?' My brother replied, 'Yeh ghazalein bahut acchi gaata hain (He sings ghazals very well).'
And she asked me to sing a ghazal right there. I was very fond of Mehdi Hasan and I sang his Faiz Ahmed Faiz ghazal, Dil mein ab yoon tere bhoole hue gham aate hain. And she told me, 'You sing extremely well. Why don't you focus on singing as a career?'
Since I was already toying with the idea, I was delighted. It was, I think, the most thrilling moment of my life!
Soon after that, I got a chance to listen to her live at a function in Bombay. I was so overwhelmed by her rendition of Tum mujhe yoon bhula na paaoge that I went and took her autograph!
Later, though we were not really in touch, Lata Mangeshkar seemed to be keeping track of what I was doing. Whenever we met at any function or party, she would remark on how well I had sung that day at her house.
I got my first chance to actually record a song with her in '87. It was Aur bhalaa kya rab se maangoon for Thanedaar under Bappi Lahiri. Before that, it had been my pleasure to find my name in the same album as hers -- Laxmikant-Pyarelal's Naam -- in which both of us had solos.
After that we recorded two more duets together, and coincidentally all three were composed by Bappi Lahiri -- Gaa mere sang pyar ka geet for Gunahon Ka Faisla and Maahiya teri kasam in Ghayal. She was happy that all three of our joint efforts proved popular, and remarked as such to me.
I also had the privilege of getting Lataji to release my album, Aman in 1994. She seemed to turn it into gold, as the album went on to be a great success.
But what I cherish even more is her inviting me to sing at one of the annual functions in memory of her father Dinanath Mangeshkar. Not only am I grateful for the honour, but what was especially memorable was that she was among my audience that unforgettable evening!
My ultimate dream is to collaborate on an album with her one day, the way Jagjitji did Sajda with her.
As an artiste, she's basically a role model for any singer, irrespective of the genre of music which that singer sings.
She herself has been impeccable at every kind of music and I don't need to comment on her perfect pronunciation and enviable throw. There is a peculiar soz, a strange kashish in her voice which draws you like a magnet. Hers is an awaaz whose appeal is universal. There is a lot of soul in it as well as a technical brilliance, and this is a very rare combination.
As a person, I think she's the most intelligent woman whom I have ever come across. Her analysis of people and of songs is razor sharp.
I also feel she is very humane. She has had differences with so many associates, but never once has she aired her views on them, or hit out in print or to a third person against any of them. One has never seen any ugly side to her nature. She too must have been angry or outraged at people and things, but she has never compromised on her dignity!
As told to Rajiv Vijaykar

 Re: PANKAJ UDHAS...The Ghazal Supremo
Ghazal maestro regales Calcuttans
Ghazal maestro Pankaj Udhas regaled Calcuttans with an evening of ghazals on Sunday, March, 12 at the Science City Auditorium under the auspices of Khaitan fans and Anamika Kala Sangam Youth Wing.
Although the first two ghazal renditions Logo Tumko Gulab Khatey and Ishk me kabhi kuch milta nahi saw Udhas warming up to the occasion, he was yet to be seen in full form. With Pati pati gulab hojati hai followed by a filmi geet Tum phir bhi kitni sunder ho the singer weaved his magic, keeping the listeners spell-bound.
Pankaj Udhas favoured the enthusiastic crowd with a number from his popular album Stolen Moments (Ahista ki jiye baatein) and then fell into the quicksand of a more vibrant song expressing the mood of gaiety in Thodi thodi piya karo. The acknowledged master of the ghazal sang this as an expression of his refusal to accept scotch during a presentation of a ghazal programme in USA.
That Pankaj Udhas could steer himself smoothly from the fluctuating moods of both the melancholic and the jolly was evident from the loud ovation of his captive listeners. In Chitti ayee hai from the film Naam, Udhas was at his sensitive best. He also played to the gallery without in any way damaging his credentials of a professional singer who could adjust himself to any mood lending colour whenever the occasion demanded.
Jhil me chand nazar aaye saw Udhas at his very best with the melodic lines sounding the most haunting and resonant greeting the ears of the listeners with its soul-stirring effect. On audience’ request, Pankaj Udhas obliged with a filmi geet Chupke chupke sakhi yoh se bol and Meh sharabi nahi, phir bhi koi pila de to mai kya karo, rounding off with a jugalbandi that offered scope for the accompanying instruments viz flute, tabla, keyboard, mandolin to carry on a dialogue demonstrating a show of virtuosity.
Also kudos goes to the very talented group of accompanists who more than complemented the maestro’s vocal, melodic strains. Credit needs to be accorded to Rashid Mustafa (tabla), Nasir Sajjad Hossein (mandolin), Rakesh Chaurasia (flute), SP Sagar (harmonium), Anupam Chatterjee (keyboard) and Aslam Khan (sound engineer) for their sound support in making the ghazal programme a grand success.

 Re: PANKAJ UDHAS...The Ghazal Supremo
Pankaj Udhas: Passionate Professional By Nitin Kalra
Pankaj Udhas needs no introduction. The man deserves the credit for making ghazals popular at a time when it was losing its hold over the masses. And today amidst the cacophony of fast and pop music he has proved, that ghazals still charms music lovers the world over.
Born into a family of zamindars, Pankaj grew up in Rajkot a place known for its rich folk music. With his elder brother Manhar Udhas already into stage performances, young Pankaj needed no initiation into the world of music. Even before he was five, Pankaj became conscious of his singing skills.
Pankaj gave his first performance on stage when he was eight in the year 1962 when the Indo-Chinese war was on. Pankaj’s rendering of the song Ae Mere Watan Ke Logon in front of a huge crowd won him applaud and his first prize money of Rs. 51. This was enough for young Pankaj making up his mind to take up music full time.
As a result of his strong determination to pursue a successful music career, four years hence Pankaj joined the Sangeet Natya Academy in Rajkot and learnt the nuances of playing the Tabla. Later he moved on to Mumbai to pursue a Degree in Science from St. Xavier’s College, where he enthralled audiences at each and every inter-college and other open singing competitions, thanks to his immense singing prowess.
Pankaj got his first break as a playback singer in a film called Kamna way back in 1972, which unfortunately never saw the light of the day. The film didn’t help him to get the beginning he was looking for and disappointed was he searching for proper break in film industry, when he heard big brother Manhar’s Urdu teacher listen to Mehndi Hasan and Begum Akhtar. So much was Pankaj attracted towards this form of music that he went on to learn Urdu to be able to grasp the depth of ghazals. Pankaj Udhas had found his destiny.
Four years down the line struggling with ghazals Pankaj got no returns. Frustrated and discouraged from all sides he migrated to Canada and did a lot of ghazal shows there and in the US at small gatherings. The response enthused him and he decided to return home with much stronger will to make a mark in ghazals itself. Playback was out of the way for him now.
From his first ghazal album Aahat to his latest albums Janeman and Humsafar Pankaj has released over 37 albums with countless number of compilations. And as ghazals were happening he also got recognition in films with the ever popular Chitthi Aayee Hai from Naam bringing tears to every music lovers eyes with the strong emotions the songs was sung. Pankaj Udhas was a star now. His film journey continued alongside his ghazal albums, as he went on to sing for several films thereafter, each time sounding better than the last.
After making his mark in the field of ghazals, Pankaj has recently stepped into the world of entertainment business. Besides his own music label Velvet Voices, he has recently launched a company called Velvet Vision, which is into production of television serials, feature films and web sites. Pankaj Udhas is also very soon launching India’s biggest music portal Musik121.Com, his dream of using the strong medium of the web to reach the maximum of the world with every genre of Indian music on a single site.
From those early childhood days as a singer on stage to the first ghazal album and then from the touching Chitthi Aayee Hai to his new role as Director of Velvet Vision, Pankaj Udhas has proved at every stage that he is not only a singer par excellence but a passionate professional, doing every possible thing to stay close to his first love - music.

 Re: PANKAJ UDHAS...The Ghazal Supremo
Pankaj Udhas: Technological voices!
Pankaj Udhas, one of the protagonists in ghazals and also known for his playback singing has decided to move with the times. The first thing a person with such a decision ought to do is obviously familiarise himself with the Net. And that is exactly what Pankaj intends to do.
Stepping into the world of entertainment business with his own music label, Velevet Voices Private Limited, the singer has now launched his own company, Velvet Vision Limited, which is into production of television serials and websites.
Their first site horrorunlimited.com has shown profits in the balance sheets and has encouraged the singer to move on to his next dream. Pankaj Udhas plans to launch a music portal, musik121.com, and one of its objectives is to be India's biggest music portal. Well, hope his dreams come true.

 Re: PANKAJ UDHAS...The Ghazal Supremo
‘Please, I\'m not promoting liquor\'  Tell me about your new album Endless Love? I came across a newspaper column which carried romantic messages from readers. The poetry in few messages grabbed my attention and became my inspiration. Do you see the ghazal market dipping? Not at all. In fact, the demand for ghazal albums rose in 2007. One of my recent shows in Ahmedabad had a turnout of 6000 ghazal patrons. Music companies and trade experts claim that the demand for ghazals is dropping by the day because of western music. But it seems as if everyone is tired of that too. Most of your songs revolve around the word sharaab? (Laughs) Please, I'm not promoting liquor. Sharaab has always been used in Urdu literature to express a certain sentiment. Omar Khayyam used this word in most of his compositions. He believed that the entire world is intoxicated. It's the interpretation of the song writer. What's your take on singers on reality shows? There have been quite a few damages. My struggle lasted for 10 years. Today we have shows like Sa Re Ga Ma Pa, Indian Idol and Bathroom Singer which have made life way too easy for the new bachchas. Talent doesn't count. But I don't deny that these shows have dished out a breed of talented singers too. The voting system can be a problem for small towners because they lose out easily and go home, discouraged.

 Re: PANKAJ UDHAS...The Ghazal Supremo
Express Buzz 11 Aug 2009 KOCHI: “Deewaarom se milkar ronaa acha lagthaa hai…” When Panakaj Udhas sang, the whole of Kochi listened. His velvet voice floated over the thickly packed JT Pac on Saturday, taking the audience to new heights of musical ecstasy. With his haunting voice Udhas stole the hearts of music lovers, and the ghazal evening, Stolen Moments, offered some priceless moments for all gathered at the venue. This live staging of all the hit ghazals by Udhas, presented jointly by JT Pac and Muthoot Pappachan Foundation, was a rare opportunity for Kochiites to listen to the lingering melodies of the evergreen singer. Pankaj started the concert with the popular ‘Samaana kharabh’, to the mellifluous accompaniment of flute, violin and mandolin. Then he slowly entered the magical world of ghazals through the immortal lines ‘Deewaarom se milkar ronaa acha lagthaa hai…’ that carried the imagination of lyricist Janab Zafar Ghorakhpuri. Unlike in his albums, Udhas presented an improvised version of ‘Duniya bhar ki yaad.’ Romantic songs penned by Anwar Farookhabadi were soulfully rendered by the singer with ‘Sabko maalum he mein sharaabi nahee… Phir bhee koi pilaaye tho mein kyaa karoom…’ Then was the nostalgic presentation of ‘Jiye tho jiye kaise…’ which touchingly unveiled the sweetest sorrow of separation between lovers. By poignantly controlling his soft and sweet voice Udhas transferred the anxiety of an obsessive lover who dreams about his sweetheart. With a humorous remark Pankaj dedicated the next ghazal, ‘Hui mahang bahuth hai sharaab ki....’ to the people whom he had seen queuing in front of a beverages shop while on his way to JT Pac. And his voice was a perfect platform for the beauty of the simple lines penned by S Rakesh. His humour was at its best as he spoke of the life of a man before and after marriage and prescribed ghazal as the best remedy to please their wives. He then sang ‘Chaandi jaisa rang hai thera…’ much to the delight of the women in the audience. Then came the nostalgic ‘Laa pilaade saaqiiyaa’, a traditional ghazal from his famous album ‘Nasheela’. During the rendition Rashid Mushtafa and Rakesh Chaurasya proved their talent in tabla and flute respectively as they presented a miraculous control over rhythm and melody. The soul stirring ghazal from the hit film ‘Mohra’, penned by Indeevar and scored by Viju Shah, was presented in an enthralling style. Pankaj Udhas, who had sung this song along with Sadhna Sargam in the film, once again proved his proficiency in touching the hearts of listeners by singing Na Kajre Ki Dhar …’ Then came the touching ghazal which Udhas keeps close to his heart- ‘Hei hamem zindagee,’ penned by his favourite lyricist Zaraf Ghorakhpuri. Here he presented the stylised version of the famous lines ‘Ek tharaf uska ghar…’ in tune with the magical support of the mandolin. Without any preface Pankaj Udhas brought out his all-time favourite, ‘Chitee aayee hai… Rakesh Chaurasya took his base flute and played a beautiful bit to provide fragrance to the lines. This was followed by some striking western notes on violin by Rajendra Singh. To satisfy the audience who had many requests towards the end of the programme, Udhas presented a garland of ghazals like ‘Sharaab cheez hi aisi..’, ‘Na chodee jaye..’ and ‘Hai gunguroo toot gaye…’ Throughout the downpour of ghazals, Anupam Chatterji controlled the basic tone in his keyboard in tune with the movement of the magical fingers of Udhas on his harmonium.
