Who was the first to give reliable information about Jaikisan?

A loving message to the fans of Shankar Jaikisan

My friend Sudarshan Pandajin, a resident of Calcutta and Shankari Jaikisan's musician, presented episodes of AAP with a variety of Shankar Jaikisans written by me. Later, when he did not recover, he did not proceed further. Now I am going to broadcast it again in front of you. I will be presenting one new episode to you every week. Thank you.

Shankar Jaikisan-14

This anecdote is truly awe-inspiring. A co-operative bank manager by profession and a hobbyist is a matter of a gentleman. He has a very big name in Gujarati language. You have found a lot of rewards and rewards. In addition, this gentleman is also crazy about the golden age of music. His name is Mr. Rajnikumar Pandya. AAP's posting took place in a town in South Gujarat in the 1980s. One day someone told him that you know musician Jaikisan was a resident of Vansada village in this state.

This gentleman was thrilled to hear so much. One evening, after doing a bank job, Pandyaji walked in his car and made a promise. Even after searching for an hour, Jaikisan's address was not found. Yes, someone said that a nephew of Jaikisan runs a glasses shop in Valsad. The name of the shop is also Jai Optics. Pandyaji went to Valsad.   

What did Jaikisan's nephew get, as if Pandyaji found the treasure of Kubera. He took the boy to his house with Pandyaji and introduced him to his mother. His mother, that is Jaikisan's sister, gave reliable information to Pandyaji about Jaikisan. That information is summarized.

In his childhood, Jaikisan was called Batuk. Jaikisan also spoke to the old music teacher who learned music in this small town. Talked to the people of the royal family of Vansada. Silently: The information kept on increasing. Pandya ji's happiness remained undetected. They trimmed all the information, prepared a detailed article based on all the information and presented it in their column Jhabkar (Chinagari) in the Gujarati language's leading daily message. Then what to say? Lakhs of Jaikisan's fans praised this article, Pandyaji received lots of Mubarakabadi letters. Never before has anyone had so much and such reliable information about Jaikisan. Pandyaji's hard work became meaningful.

Why did this happen? It is a matter of understanding. Shankar Jaikisan has millions of music. But very few people have personal knowledge about these two musicians. Where was the musician born, how was his childhood, where did the training of music, how much did he study, etc., no one knows. Music lovers only enjoy music. They are not interested in the private things of the musician. The journalist and litterateur is heartbroken in such things. Well, after a long time when Panditji was invited as a special guest when the statue of Jaikisan was installed in Vansada. 

I would like to clarify one thing before talking about Shankar Jaikisan's music surgeon. Which song was created by both of them, what was the misunderstanding between the two, how did the love of Jaikisan and Pallavi developed, etc. Things that Gosip calls me, I will not look at such a Gossip. We will only talk about the music surgeon. I agree that like the game of cricket, the music surgeon is also a teamwork. In this matter, apart from the composer, there is also a supply of his instruments. 

By the way, even in the presence of both, their critics claimed that Raj Kapoor himself composed music in the name of Shankar Jaikisan. However this was not true. Of course, of all the film creators in those days, Raj Kapoor was a film creator who was a big practitioner of Indian music. He knew the nuances of music very well. Therefore, the music of his films became more popular than others. 

In those days AR Kardar, Manmohan Desai's father Kiakubhai Desai, Mahesh Bhatt's father Nanabhai Bhatt, Homi Wadia, etc. were the creators. Raj Kapoor was the most knowledgeable person in all of them. Therefore, such things were spread that Raj Kapoor himself prepares the music of his films.

Nowadays, such information about music is in Sanjay Leela Bhansali, it has been said that Lataji. In fact, Shankar Jaikisan was the composer of Ala Darjje. While living in the Raj Kapoor camp, when he started serving music in films of other creators, the reviewers had to be ashamed.
