Today is the 14th death anniversary of Music director RD Burman or Panchamda as he was fondly called by people who loved him. Everyone loved him. He became immortal right from his first film Chhote Nawab which Panchamda considered his best score ever.
RD Burman scored music for 331 films in 32 years. his timeless classics are still heard by the younger generation as there are a lot of remixed versions of his songs in the market. Although, RD went through a low phase when his last 27 films flopped and filmmakers started to avoid him, Panchamda came up with the fabulous score for 1942-A Love Story which starred Anil Kapoor, Jackie Shroff and Manisha Koirala. This film rekindled his reputation as a genius composer.
Long live the Boss!
