Thank you for sharing 🙏

[@himmsingz]

Much respect for your sentiments!

[@soumitrachakrabarty1759]

My father Late Gour Gopal Chakrabarty took his lesson in Indian Classical Hindustani Music from Pandit Sukhendu Goswami, and in modern song from great musician Hemanta Mukhopadhyay. Hemanta is my number-1 favourite artiste. He is an all time great musician, especially to those who understand his golden voice and his melodies.

[@ashokpare3359]

Great .Its a matter of proud to be indian.

[@himmsingz]

Wow!

[@subhajit0]

Hemant Kumar Mukherjee's narration of his experience in West Indies interacting with the resident Indian communities of Jamaica, Trinidad, Guyana, Surinam is truly moving and evokes an indescribable feeling of what it means to be Bharatiya.

[@SaleemKhan-pt7md]

Love and respect to this great musician. Some of my most favourite compositions are created by Hemant Kumar Da. His tunes are just mesmerising. Love from the north western mountains of Pakistan.

[@kamalkusum1717]

Thanks from India , music can ruine line of control .

[@arvindkumarupadhyay7181]

We talk much about the dominant singers of yesteryear like Kishore kumar,Rafi sahab,Manna dey,Mukesh among male singers but seldom remember an outstanding singer and talented music directors of that time.He was non other than Hemant Kumar.A voice of God so to say.

[@uraharakisuke5305]

There was also Talat Mahmood

[@parthamp4751]

No sir, Hemantda and Talat saab also have a huge following. No denying their greatness. While Rafi, Kishore, and Manna Dey were versatile and flexible, we tap into Mukesh for soulfulness, Hemantda for his resonant melodious voice, and Talat saab for his sublime ghazals.

[@arvindkumarupadhyay7181]

@@parthamp4751 I totally agree with you Mr Partha.I intended to say that there were many talented singers in that Golden era who may not have sung as many as Rafi or Kishore did but that era is not complete unless their places and their contributions are not properly recognised.

[@parthamp4751]

@@arvindkumarupadhyay7181 Absolutely sir. It was a golden age of creativity and excellence. Can not ignore anybodys contribution. Numbers wise Mukesh sang just 900 plus songs. Rafi has 800 plus duets with Asha alone. But still Mukesh is one of the greats. Khayyam composed for just about 40 odd movies in his 40 year career, but what a contribution. So yes, while numbers do tell a story it is not the whole story.

[@ds86496]

@@parthamp4751 right.. mozart created 41 symphonies while beethoven only did 9.. but even then we say beethoven as the greatest of all times.. it's not about the numbers, it's always about the quality of the music... quality wise hemant da as a music composer was also no less than naushad or madan mohan.. that's the truth...

[@arunkumarpandey3077]

Hemant Kumar was a God gifted personality. His singing was very remarkable.

[@inderjeetmunohur7694]

For those of us in our late sixties, Hemant Kumar's voice kept us company through much of this life's journey. This voice echoed the ethos, vicissitudes, mysteries and hopes of our youth. For us who live in far off Mauritius, it evoked the majesty of the Himalayas, the drops of melting ice that flows to the foothills and valleys and merge to the Ganges and provides continuing spiritual comfort to our timeless heritage.

[@lalthadani2181]

O lol

[@pranabkumarray7408]

Absolutely correct appreceation.

[@brijtoofar]

Late 70's buddy, glad you late 60's youngsters also in the loop on these amazing sangeet kars. Every 10 years, the shape of our music changes; today it is absolute crap. New singers with 1000 piece orchestras and barely a note in their soul. And rubbish music directors

[@brijtoofar]

I should have put my comment here, agree entirely. Same emotions from Indian born in Kenya, hello to Mauritius!

[@sunilduttbedar4675]

Great Hament Da ,really voice of God. Great comforter , dispells darkness away.

If there is a voice for God, it must be Hemant Kumar voice.

शायद संगीत प्रेमियों को मालूम होगा कि हेमंतदा का जन्मस्थान वाराणसी है, अतः हमसब संगीत प्रेमियों का सरकार से अनुरोध है कि उस घर को राष्ट्रीय धरोहर घोषित करें।

[@dr.basavarajmodi7375]

Our Lingayatism the religion based on the philosophy of Mahatma Basavanna and his 770 immortal mystics of Deccan India in 12th Century, says God is omnipotent, omnipresent, invisibly visible, doesn't have voice but heard.... In this context I can say God sang in the voice of legendary singer, music director & film producer Hemanth Kumar. Even after decades after his death, he is immortal through his immortal songs. I'm a doctor. I can say that his songs are best for mental patients, the agitated ones. His music, his renderings will sooth the mind & heart of listener. At the age of 70+ age I always listen to his music regularly and feel happy & rejuvenated. I wonder that God is wonderful artist who has created this wonderful masterpiece- Hemanth Kumar!

[@sukumarmukherjee5550]

Hemanta da is genius singer.

[@arghyadatta6333]

You are absolutely correct , any person suffering from pain may be mental even physical will get absolute peace by hearing Hemant Kumar . It is my own experience . Whenever i feel agitations in mind or under any stressful situations Hemant kumar's songs gave me Shanti .
