Music composer Pyarelal Ramprasad Sharma, of Laxmikant-Pyarelal fame, has been honoured with the prestigious Padma Bhushan, not only as a celebration of his musical prowess, but also in acknowledgment of his role in defining the golden era of Hindi film music.
The octogenarian learnt the basics of music from his father, the renowned trumpeteer of his time, Ramprasad ‘Babaji’ Sharma. He then aced the violin under the guidance of the Goan musician Anthony Gonsalves, whom he went on to immortalise in the song ‘My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves’, which was picturised on Amitabh Bachchan (who also contributed to the vocals) in the 1977 film ‘Amar Akbar Anthony’.

The soundtrack of director Rohan Sippy's forthcoming romantic-comedy "Nautanki Saala" has a long list of songs and composers have managed to blend elements of romance and comedy very well in the songs. The eight original songs and their reprised, unplugged and remix versions are likely to woo music lovers.
However, a couple of tracks would have niche listeners as they won't appeal to the masses.
The album starts with romantic number "Mera mann kehne laga"..

His twitter handle mentions him as an actor and a photographer, however we think that Neil should add being producer, writer and music composer now. Yes, Neil Nitin Mukesh has been a closet writer for some time now and will soon be coming out with his dream project that's been written by him. If what we hear is to be believed then Neil's film titled Paidaar is a romantic thriller and will be directed by Rohit Jugraj. As for the female lead of the film, Deepika Padukone is said to be a strong contender. If that wasn't enough, Neil will be producing the film as well. Not only that, he will also be composing the music of the film and both he and his father Nitin Mukesh will be singing for the album as well. Paidaar is said to go on floor this December once Neil and Rohit finish work on the screenplay.
