The Last Legend, mahendra kapoor Options

[maheshks]

He is the lone surviving male memeber of the stalwarts who reigned the hindi film music with their brilliant performances.

Here is a song composed by Shankar Jaikishan. The movie name is shikar. I think this song and "Ang lag ja baalma" from Mera naam jokar were the songs composed by this duo in OP Nayyari style(perheps they were also influenced by his style).

The voices of Dharmendra and Asha Parekh have been used (inter-mingled) in the song very nicely.

MERE SARKAAR MERI AAHON KA ASAR DEKH LIYA

[RafiKiAwaaz]

I recentaly saw Mahendra Kapoor on stage here in California. He came here for a charity show, the MAN still has a great voice and still sounds great when he sings or tried to sing his immortal songs like "Chalo Ek Baar Phir Se" and "Mere Desh KI Dharti" etc. But my friends, the man is so sick that he had to be carried on stage by his muscians and his son. I feel that his time has come and he is coming to his near end. He could hardly stand by himself and he could not sing for too long, he doesn't have any stamina to carry those great tunes. This may have been my luckiest moment to see him for the last time. I wish him long life!!!
