SHAILENDRA SPECIAL
Shankardas Kesarilal (August 30, 1923 – December 14, 1966), popularly known by his pen name Shailendra, was a popular Indian Hindi lyricist. Noted for his association with the filmmaker Raj Kapoor and the composers Shankar-Jaikishan, he wrote lyrics for several successful Hindi film songs in the 1950s and the 1960s.Shailendra was born in Rawalpindi, Punjab (Undivided India), and spent his childhood in Mathura

Career as a lyricist

Shailendra started his career as a clerk with Indian Railways. His job brought him to Mumbai (then Bombay) in 1947. He started writing poetry during these days.
The filmmaker Raj Kapoor noticed Shailendra, when the latter was reading out his poem Jalta hai Punjab at a mushaira (poetic symposium).[2] Kapoor offered to buy poems written by Shailendra and use them for his movie Aag (1948). Shailendra, a member of the left wing IPTA, was wary of mainstream Indian cinema and refused. However, after his wife became pregnant, Shailendra himself approached Raj Kapoor in need of money.[1] At this time, Raj Kapoor was filming Barsaat (1949), and two of the film songs had not been written yet. For INR 500, Shailendra wrote these two songs: Patli kamar hai and Barsaat mein. The music for Barsaat was composed by Shankar-Jaikishan.
The team of Raj Kapoor, Shailendra and Shankar-Jaikishan went on to produce many other hit songs. The song "Awara Hoon" from the 1951 film Awaara, written by Shailendra, became the most appreciated Hindustani film song outside India at the time.[3]
In the days when composers would recommend lyricists to producers, Shankar-Jaikishan once promised Shailendra that they would recommend him around, but didn't keep their promise. Shailendra sent them a note with the lines, "Chhoti Si Yeh Duniya, Pehchaane Raaste Hain. Kahin To Miloge, Phir Poochhenge Haal" (The world is small, the roads are known. We'll meet sometime, and ask 'How do you do?'". Realizing the meaning of the message, Shankar-Jaikishan realized what the message meant and having said sorry, turned the lines into a popular song. The song was featured in the film Rangoli (1962), for which the producer Rajendra Singh Bedi wanted to sign up Majrooh Sultanpuri as the lyricst. However, Shankar-Jaikishen insisted on Shailendra and the producer had to oblige.[4]
Apart from Shankar-Jaikishan, Shailendra also shared a rapport with composers such as Salil Chowdhary (Madhumati), Sachin Dev Burman (Guide, Bandini, Kala Bazar), and Ravi Shankar (Anuradha). Apart from Raj Kapoor, he shared a rapport with filmmakers such as Bimal Roy (Do Bigha Zameen, Madhumati, Bandini) and Dev Anand (Guide and Kala Bazar).

Last years:

In the mid-1960s, Shailendra invested heavily in the production of the movie Teesri Kasam (1966), which won the National Film Award for Best Feature Film. However, the film was a commercial failure.[5] The falling health resulting from tensions associated with film production and anxiety due to financial loss, coupled with alcohol abuse, ultimately led to his death. Shailendra's son Shaily Shailendra also became a lyricist. The contemporary lyricist Hasrat Jaipuri stated once in a TV-interview that Shailendra was the best lyricist the Indian film industry ever had.
Shailendra won the Filmfare Best Lyricist Award three times.

  • 1959: "Sab Kuch Seekha Hamne" (Anari)
  • 1968: "Main Gaoon Tum So Jao" (Brahmchari)
