In June 1991, when pop artist Alamgir showed up on Pakistan Television singing 'Unimportant Khayalo Pe Chaayi Hai', various young people were hearing 'Kokokorina' for the absolute first time. Yet, I was staggered to find that it was recorded further 25 years back and was initially sung by Ahmed Rushdi - the 'originator' of popular music in Pakistan.

Conceived on April 24 in the year 1934, Rushdi was a wide-running playback artist who earned distinction in the wake of singing 'Bandar Road se Kemari' in a youngsters' program on Radio Pakistan.

He sang more than 900 melodies in his renowned 20-year profession, generally for Waheed Murad, Kamal and Muhammad Ali. He could sing quick numbers as effectively as he could render dismal tunes. 'Dil Tumko De Dia Hai' and 'Ae Abr-e-Karam' from Naseeb Apna are prime instances of his work. He made Habib Jalib's 'Pyar Me Hum Ne Khaayi Hai Thokar' as celebrated as 'Principle Nahi Manta'. Be it Suroor Barabankvi's 'Nadiya Behti Jaaye' or Himayat Ali Shair's 'Pyar Me Hum Ae Jaan-e-Tamanna', Rushdi could do ponders with all artists, lyricists and artists.

Nobody has outperformed his count as a male vocalist in Pakistan, yet his commitment to TV, which showed up on the scene in 1960s, is additionally remarkable. Had Rushdi never showed up on TV, we may at present be observing just ghazals.

Named the principal pop vocalist of the nation, he presented a totally new style of singing on TV. He would lip-adjust to his melodies, move to the music, move around on the set just as enjoy the crowd. Ahmed Rushdi used to show up in TV shows Sunday ke Sunday, Sangeet Bahar and numerous others before having a show Bazm-e-Rushdi totally for himself by 1974. An ace of his craft, he enlivened numerous adolescents to take up popular music as a profession.

Khalid Waheed, one of the pop artists who went to the fore in the late 70s, trusted Rushdi was misjudged given his ability. "He was one of most flexible specialists Pakistan has ever created. His conveyance of words was remarkable. He was an uncommon entertainer who was in front of his occasions."

Khalid, who himself exceeded expectations alongside Alamgir and Mohammed Ali Shehki on TV, viewed the nearness of Rushdi as a gift to his age.

Rushdi moved to Karachi in late 70s when the music in films went into 'an inappropriate hands'. Creation of Urdu films decreased and TV offered better work. Renowned music executive from TV, Javed Allah Ditta, recollected the legend warmly. "He was a fine honorable man who used to invest additional exertion in his singing. I had worked with him in films when I used to help Nisar Bazmi. Afterward, when he moved to Karachi, I was consistently there at his shows as a guitarist."

Who can overlook the ever acclaimed 'Chai Chaaye' tea business from the mid 70s? Rushdi sang the lines for comic Nirala during his top as a film artist. The 'Konsi Janaab' is still 'heard' by tea darlings, at whatever point they long for some tea, even today. Such is the suffering intensity of Ahmed Rushdi.

Rushdi's bustling film plan didn't permit him to contribute more opportunity to TV. Be that as it may, with film music in decay by the late 70s, Rushdi indeed directed his concentration toward the medium. This time, he was bolstered by Saeed Rizvi, 'the new child on the promoting square', who had been producing advertisements at a huge speed.

"It was one fine day in 1978, when I was educated regarding his landing in my office. He happened to be my senior sibling Masood Rizvi's companion as they had worked together for Ghar Damad, Bhaijan's directorial debut. Rushdi bhai had additionally sung broadly for my dad's (Rafiq Rizvi) films and had close ties with our family. The promotions I was making in those days required a voice like his, something perfect for TV. The second a pained Rushdi bhai approached me for some work, I was complimented. Artists like Mehnaz were given 500 rupees for a jingle, yet remembering Rushdi bhai's height, I ensured he got double the sum.

He sang for over twelve jingles for me. Of those, 'Yamaha Japani' and 'People Own Cigarettes' are as yet well known," recalled maker/executive Saeed Rizvi, who proceeded to back the nation's first science fiction include, Shanee.

With Zia-ul-Haq's military law, came the well known 'dupatta approach' for PTV. Film industry had a lot of severe 'blue pencil' laws and for Ahmed Rushdi, who was currently a heart understanding, returning was impossible. He needed to remain with TV however with a virtual restriction on vocalists who moved around a great deal, there appeared to be little expectation. In an outrageous instance of lip service, youths could be seen moving to pop beats while legends like Malika Pukraj, Mala, Ghulam Ali and Mehdi Hassan were publicized distinctly in static mode. Rushdi was sidelined because of his 'dynamic' exhibitions and it was not until the Special Election Transmission of November 1988, that he reappeared on TV.

Tragically, he kicked the bucket in Karachi in April of 1983.

Introduction

Bollywood melodies, all the more formally known as Hindi film tunes or filmi songs, are tunes highlighted in Bollywood films.
In 80s, Pakistani local music companies (Sonic, Eagle, Million, Heera etc.) innovated in this music and called it Jhankar. This series lasted for 20 years. After all, all these companies were closed in 2003.
Because of jhankar songs available only in cassettes, We convert those cassettes or Master records in digital format. We created a channel on YouTube by the name of AM Jhankar for Hindi Filmi Tune Lovers.
So, Enjoy Hindi Music in Jhankar....
