Entertainment News Desk – Actor, writer, lyricist, musician and singer Piyush Mishra is celebrating his 60th birthday today! The versatile, versatile artist is adept in every field and is clearly an ace in all fields. He has been actively involved in various aspects of film production and has worked on many fronts during his long career. On his birthday, we take a look at lyricist extraordinaire Mishra.
‘The beginning is fierce’
It would be a huge mistake to talk about Mishra’s illustrious writing career and not mention ‘Aarambh Hai Prachanda’. It is his most famous song, full of uplifting encouragement and inspiration; It is a battle cry for soldiers who prepare themselves before a symbolic battle. It was featured in the Bollywood film Gulaal. Mishra also composed the music and lent his voice to the song.
‘There will be a moon nearby’
There are many aspects in Gangs of Wasseypur that make this gangster drama different, one of them is Mishra’s philosophical musings on “Ek Bagal Mein Chand Hoga”. The poem is less of a song and more of a layered poem with deep meaning, sung by Mishra himself. He also played a lead role in this two-part film directed by Anurag Kashyap.
‘Hunkara’
Ranbir Kapoor’s Shamshera may have been a forgettable film, but what easily stood out was its impeccable soundtrack. Mishra’s contribution came in the form of the foot-tapping song Hunkara, which is somewhat close to Aarambh Hai Prachanda in its tone, approach and purpose. Sung by Richa Sharma, Sukhwinder Singh and Mithun, this song is exactly what Shamshera’s revenge tale required.
‘Come dance’
Madhuri Dixit Nene’s dance-based drama Aaja Nachle (2007) was promoted as her big comeback and made headlines for weeks. And, what could be better than a well-written, instantly catchy song to welcome the Dhak Dhak girl? Mishra wrote the title song of the film and with Sunidhi Chauhan’s excellent singing and Dixit Nene’s excellent dancing, nothing could go wrong here.
