মান্না দে-র জীবনাবসান

Legendary singer Manna Dey no more

नहीं रहे मशहूर गायक मन्ना डे, बैंगलोर में ली आखिरी सांस

प्रबोध चन्द्र डे उर्फ मन्ना डे का जन्म एक मई 1920 को कोलकाता में हुआ था। डे के पिता उन्हें वकील बनाना चाहते थे, लेकिन उनका रुझान संगीत की ओर था और वह इसी क्षेत्र में अपना कैरियर बनाना चाहते थे। डे ने संगीत की प्रारंभिक शिक्षा अपने चाचा केसी डे से हासिल की। डे के बचपन के दिनों का एक दिलचस्प वाकया है। उस्ताद बादल खान और डे के चाचा एक बार साथ-साथ रियाज कर रहे थे, तभी बादल खान ने डे की आवाज सुनी और उनके चाचा से पूछा यह कौन गा रहा है। डे को जब बुलाया गया, तो उन्होंने अपने उस्ताद से कहा कि बस ऐसे ही गा लेता हूं, लेकिन बादल खान ने डे की छिपी प्रतिभा को पहचान लिया।


बॉलीवुड के मशहूर गायक मन्ना डे का बैंगलोर के अस्पताल में निधन हो गया है। मन्ना डे 94 साल के थे और काफी समय से बीमार चल रहे थे। मन्ना डे का पार्थिव शरीर बैंगलोर के रवींद्र कला क्षेत्र में सुबह 10 बजे से दोपहर 12 तक दर्शनों के लिए रखा जाएगा।

दादा साहेब फाल्के अवार्ड से सम्मानित मन्ना डे के नाम से लोकप्रिय प्रबोधचंद डे का जन्म एक मई 1919 को कोलकाता में हुआ था। मन्ना डे ने अपनी गायिकी के सफर में कई भारतीय भाषाओं में लगभग 3500 से अधिक गाने गाए। मन्ना डे के आवाज का इस्तेमाल जहां-जहां हुआ कामयाबी की दिशा में मील का पत्थर साबित हुआ। मन्ना डे को संगीत के क्षेत्र में बेहतरीन योगदान के लिए पद्म भूषण और पद्मश्री सम्मान से भी नवाजा गया। संगीत में उनकी रूचि अपने चाचा केसी डे की वजह से पैदा हुई।

हालांकि उनके पिता चाहते थे कि वो बड़े होकर वकील बने। लेकिन मन्ना डे ने संगीत को ही चुना। कलकत्ता के स्कॉटिश कॉलेज में पढ़ाई के साथ-साथ मन्ना डे ने केसी डे से शास्त्रीय संगीत की बारीकियां सीखीं। कॉलेज में संगीत प्रतियोगिता के दौरान मन्ना डे ने लगातार तीन साल तक ये प्रतियोगिती जीती। आखिर में आयोजकों को ने उन्हें चांदी का तानपुरा देकर कहा कि वो आगे से इसमें हिस्सा नहीं लें।

23 साल की उम्र में मन्ना डे अपने चाचा के साथ मुंबई आए और उनके सहायक बन गए। उस्ताद अब्दुल रहमान खान और उस्ताद अमन अली खान से उन्होंने शास्त्रीय संगीत सीखा। इसके बाद वो सचिन देव बर्मन के सहायक बन गए। इसके बाद वो कई संगीतकारों के सहायक रहे और उन्हें प्रतिभाशाली होने के बावजूद जमकर संघर्ष करना पड़ा। 1943 में आई फिल्म 'तमन्ना' के जरिए उन्होंने हिन्दी फिल्मों में अपना सफर शुरू किया और 1943 में बनी 'रामराज्य' से वे प्लैबैक सिंगर बन गए। सचिन दा ने ही मन्ना डे को सलाह दी कि वे गायक के रूप में आगे बढ़ें और मन्ना डे ने सलाह मान ली।

धार्मिक फिल्मों के गायक का ठप्पा

मन्ना डे ने कुछ धार्मिक फिल्मों में गाने क्या गाएं उन पर धार्मिक गीतों के गायक का ठप्पा लगा दिया गया। 'प्रभु का घर', 'श्रवण कुमार', 'जय हनुमान', 'राम विवाह' जैसी कई फिल्मों में उन्होंने गीत गाए। इसके अलावा बी-सी ग्रेड फिल्मों में भी वो अपनी आवाज देते रहें। भजन के अलावा कव्वाली और मुश्किल गीतों के लिए मन्ना डे को याद किया जाता था। इसके अलावा मन्ना डे से उन गीतों को गंवाया जाता था, जिन्हें कोई गायक गाने को तैयार नहीं होता था। धार्मिक फिल्मों के गायक की इमेज तोड़ने में मन्ना डे को लगभग सात सात लगे।

फिल्म 'आवारा' से हटा धार्मिक फिल्मों के गायक का ठप्पा

फिल्म 'आवारा' में मन्ना डे के गीत 'तेरे बिना ये चांदनी' बेहद लोकप्रिय हुआ और इसके बाद उन्हें बड़े बैनर की फिल्मों में मौके मिलने लगे। 'प्यार हुआ इकरार हुआ..' (श्री 420), 'ये रात भीगी-भीगी..' (चोरी-चोरी), 'जहां मैं चली आती हूं..' (चोरी-चोरी), 'मुड-मुड़ के ना देख..' (श्री 420) जैसी कई सफल गीतों में उन्होंने अपनी आवाज दी। मन्ना डे जो गाना मिलता उसे गा देते। ये उनकी प्रतिभा का कमाल है कि उन गीतों को भी लोकप्रियता मिली। उनका सबसे मशहूर गाना 'कस्में वादे प्यार वफा..' था।

खेमेबाजी का शिकार

भारतीय फिल्म संगीत में खेमेबाजी उस समय जोरों से थी। सरल स्वभाव वाले मन्ना डे किसी कैम्प का हिस्सा नहीं थे। इसका खामियाजा उन्हें भुगतना पड़ा। उस समय रफी, किशोर, मुकेश, हेमंत कुमार जैसे गायक छाए हुए थे और हर गायक की किसी न किसी संगीतकार से अच्छी ट्यूनिंग थी। साथ ही राज कपूर, देव आनंद, दिलीप कुमार जैसे स्टार कलाकार मुकेश, किशोर कुमार और रफी जैसे गायकों से गंवाना चाहते थे, इसलिए भी मन्ना डे को मौके नहीं मिल पाते थे। मन्ना डे की प्रतिभा के सभी कायल थे। लेकिन साइड हीरो, कॉमेडियन, भिखारी, साधु पर कोई गीत फिल्माना हो तो मन्ना डे को याद किया जाता था। कहा तो ये भी जाता था कि मन्ना डे से दूसरे गायक डरे थे इसलिए वे नहीं चाहते थे कि मन्ना डे को ज्यादा अवसर मिले।


The HinduManna Dey. File photo


Irony was the constant refrain of Manna Dey's life. A world happy to sway to jingles could not always appreciate the steeped-in-classicism kalaam of Manna Da. Not blessed with the rare yodelling skills ofKishore Kumar or the soaked-in-romance style of Mohammed Rafi, there were a few things Manna Dey could do which his contemporaries could not aspire to. He could whip up a "Lagi chunari mein daag", or "Aayo kahan se Ghanshyam" with such ease that he made a mockery of all predictions of the songs being difficult or challenging. Music directors Shankar-Jaikishen, indeed Mohammed Rafi too, felt he was the best choice when it came to songs with classical leanings.The Hindu reports.

Manna Da though wanted to break the stereotype, ready at a moment's notice to improvise, to innovate. He could dish out "Aao twist karein" too but the Hindi film world gave him only occasional opportunities to show his range, always keen to tap into his classical reservoir. In some ways, he remained an under-valued genius, the Dadasaheb Phalke Award notwithstanding. His voice was never associated with any hero, his name never doing the rounds of any music director's camp for all songs of a movie; he charted his own path.

A man most humble who did his own grocery purchases, he, however, was not happy about being the voice of Mahmood in Padosan. The song, "Ek chatur naar", a kind of a singing contest in which he shared the baton with Kishore Kumar, was filmed on Sunil Dutt and Mahmood with Manna Da's voice being used for the comedian. It left him unimpressed and he had to be persuaded to allow the song to be used in the film. Yet the same Manna Da once refused to sing with Pandit Bhimsen Joshi out of reverence for Pandit ji. The song in question, "Ketki gulab juhi" had Bhimsen's character losing to Manna Da's character in the film Basant Bahar. So Manna Da lost to Kishore Kumar in Padosan and defeated Bhimsen Joshi a decade before that! "Ketki gulab juhi", however, was the not the biggest hit from Basant Bahar. That honour went to "Sur na saje kya gaoon main", where again only Manna Da could have done justice to all the ebbs and crests of music. "Sur na…" was picturised on Bharat Bhushan, a fine case of Manna Da singing for the hero, otherwise though his voice continued to be used for non-heroes.

Another memorable case being "Yaari hai imaan mera" in Zanjeer, which was lip-synced by Pran, not the hero Amitabh Bachchan.

The ironies did not leave Manna Da there. Mukesh was generally regarded as the voice of RK Films. Yet Manna Da gave some of his best songs for Raj Kapoor in films like Chori Chori, Shree 420 and even Bobby. In Chori Chori he gave us superhits like "Aaja sanam madhur chandni mein hum" "and "Ye raat bheegi bheegi" while Rafi had to make do with the now forgotten "All line clear".

Born in 1919, he started as a music assistant in 1942. The following year he got his first whiff of public appreciation with songs of Ramrajya. It was, however, not until "Upar gagan vishal" in Mashaal (1950) that he began to be taken seriously as a solo singer. By the time he left youth, he was an accomplished performer, a diligent artiste who toiled endlessly yet never compromised on his music. In a delicious irony of life, Manna Da, who was never taken to be voice of any romantic hero of the era – the likes of Dev Anand, Shammi Kapoor and Rajesh Khanna used Kishore Kumar and Rafi's voice – managed to give us two ultimate romantic songs for people young, and those young at heart. His "Pyar hua iqrar hua hai pyar se phir kyun darta hai dil" from Shree 420 (1955) was used in an advertisement campaign to promote contraceptives some 40 years after it became a chartbuster.

If this song was an ode to love young and fearless, his number in Waqt was all about love that has withstood the test of tide and time. The song "Ae meri Zohra Jabeen" under the baton of music director Ravi, was a mischievous blend of seasoned love with innocent pranks with both Balraj Sahni and Achala Sachdev doing a wonderful job on the screen.

Little appreciated, but Manna Da was a constant factor in the films of V. Shantaram; his songs of Do Ankhen Barah Haath and Navrang have scarcely been forgotten.

His voice which could encapsulate almost all shades of life was used for patriotic as well as devotional songs. The irony could not have been greater – at one time Manna Da was ready to quit the country when an article by Rupayan Bhattacharya in a Kolkata daily compelled him to change his mind. And in the industry cine-goers hardly thought beyond Rafi or Mahendra Kapoor when it came to patriotic songs. Yet Manna Da gave us "Ae mere pyare watan" in Kabuliwala. Similarly, he lent his voice to the ever soothing "Tu pyar ka sagar hai", a song from Seema, which the faithful play in praise of the Almighty. His voice had the haunting quality of a companion left behind. It could also have a tinge of a friend extolling you to march on. The two examples being provided by songs of Safar and Shor, where he sang "Nadiya chale chale re dhara" and "Jeevan chalne ka naam" — the latter being one of the few songs he sang with Mahendra Kapoor. Interestingly, he sang more than 50 songs with Rafi and 100 songs each with Lata Mangeshkar and Asha Bhonsle.

Memorable as his songs were in Hindi cinema, Manna Da, who, for all his accomplishments, lived a humble life, sang in many Indian languages — notably Bengali, Assamese, Gujrati and Malayalam. His non-film albums too made a mark in the market, Yeh Awaara Raatein being truly remarkable. In 'live' shows too, he was peerless. Always holding the audience captive with his mastery over the medium. For many years, he confined himself to his residence in Bangalore, venturing out but rarely. Old age did not allow him to grace Kolkata on the opening day of IPL-VI, which was a disappointment for all, notably for Manna Da too as he was a keen student of the game. He had deep interest in soccer as well, being among a handful of artistes in cinema whose interests went beyond movies. His departure leaves a vacuum nobody will dare attempt to fill. But as Manna Da himself sang "Chalat musafir", it is time for the second innings of the journey called life. History might appreciate him better.

এই সময় ডিজিটাল ডেস্ক: প্রয়াত প্রবাদপ্রতীম সঙ্গীতশিল্পী মান্না দে৷ বৃহস্পতিবার ভোর ৩টে ৫০ মিনিটে শেষ নিঃশ্বাস ত্যাগ করেন তিনি। মৃত্যুকালে তাঁর বয়স হয়েছিল ৯৪ বছর৷ এদিনই ১২টা ৪৫ মিনিটে বেঙ্গালুরুর মহাশ্মশানে তাঁর শেষকৃত্য সম্পন্ন হবে। তার আগে সকাল ১০টা থেকে বেলা ১২টা পর্যন্ত তাঁর দেহ রাখা থাকবে বেঙ্গালুরুর রবীন্দ্র কলাক্ষেত্রে। সেখানেই তাঁকে শেষ শ্রদ্ধা জানানো হবে। মান্না দে-র মৃত্যুতে গভীর শোকাহত মুখ্যমন্ত্রীও।


দীর্ঘদিন ধরেই বুকের সংক্রমণজনিত সমস্যা ও কিডনির সমস্যায় ভুগছিলেন তিনি৷ শারীরিক অবস্থার অবনতি হওয়ায়, ৮ জুন তাঁকে বেঙ্গালুরুর একটি হাসপাতালে ভর্তি করা হয়৷


বিভিন্ন ভাষায় প্রায় সাড়ে তিন হাজারের মতো গান গেয়ে শ্রোতাদের মন ছুঁয়ে নিয়েছিলেন এই কিংবদন্তি শিল্পী৷ দাদাসাহেব ফাল্কে, পদ্মভূষণ ও পদ্মশ্রীর মতো সম্মানে ভূষিত করা হয়েছে তাঁকে৷ পশ্চিমবঙ্গের তরফে মহাসঙ্গীত সম্মানেও তাঁকে ভূষিত করেছিল রাজ্য সরকার। তাঁর হাতে সেই সম্মান তুলে দিতে বেঙ্গালুরু গিয়েছিলেন মুখ্যমন্ত্রী মমতা বন্দ্যোপাধ্যায়। মান্না দে-র প্রয়াণে তাঁর অনুরাগী ও শিল্পীমহলে শোকের ছায়া৷


১৯১৯ সালে ১ মে জন্মগ্রহণ করেন মান্না দে৷ কলকাতার স্কটিশচার্চ ও বিদ্যাসাগর কলেজে পড়াশোনা করেন তিনি৷ কাকা কৃষ্ণচন্দ্র দে-র কাছেই গানে হাতেখড়ি৷ কাকার হাত ধরেই ১৯৪২ সালে পা রাখেন মুম্বইয়ে৷ পরে কাকার সঙ্গে কাজ করতে করতেই নজরে পড়ে যান শচীন দেববর্মনের৷ ভারতীয় ধ্রুপদী সঙ্গীতের তালিম নেন উস্তাদ আমান আলি খান ও উস্তাদ আব্দুল রহমান খানের কাছে৷ ১৯৪৩ সালে তামান্না ছবিতে প্রথম প্লে-ব্যাক করেন মান্না দে৷ তার পর আর পিছনে ফিরে তাকাতে হয়নি মান্না দে-কে।

Legendary singer Manna Dey died at Narayana Hrudayalaya in Bangalore on Thursday. He was 94. "Manna Dey who was under treatment for the last four months breathed his last around 4am," KS Vasuki, a spokesman Narayana Hrudayalaya said.


He belonged to the gallery of India's musical greats such as Muhammad Rafi, Kishore Kumar, Mukesh and Hemant Kumar who played a great role in carrying forward the classical and popular traditions of India's musical heritage.

Recipient of Dadasaheb Phalke Award in 2009 and the National Award twice, Dey began his career in playback singing with the film Tamanna in 1943.

He won his first National Award as playback Singer for the Bengali film, Nishi Padma that Bollywood remade as Amar Prem.


He had been awarded the Padmabhushan.

Dey sang more than 3,500 songs during a career that spanned more than six decades.

Besides Hindi, Dey sang in Bengali, Gujarati, Marathi, Malayalam, Kannada and Assamese films and enjoyed successful musical partnerships with the major talents of his time.

Trained in Hindustani classical music by two classical stalwarts, Ustad Aman Ali Khan and Ustad Abdul Rahman Khan, he began his career in playback singing with the film Tamanna in 1943.

The singer - who lent his voice to timeless hits such as Pyaar Hua Ikraar Hua (Shree 420, 1955), Ae Meri Zohra Zabeen (Waqt, 1965) and Ek Chathur Naar (Padosan, 1968) and Yeh Dosti Hum Nahi Todenge (Sholay, 1975) - began his career in the Hindi film industry with Jago Aayee Usha, Panchi Boley Jago (Tamanna, 1943).

He also assisted music composer Sachin Dev Burman for some time and during this time sang Upar Gagan Vishal for the film Mashal (1950). By 1952, he had established his name as one of the top playback singers.

Apart from Hindi and mother tongue Bengali, Dey had sung in 14 Indian languages, including Punjabi, Malayalam, Gujarati, Bhojpuri and Chhattisgarhi.

Originally, Dey trained under his uncle Krishna Chandra Dey and later under Ustad Dalbir Khan. While singing for films, he continued his Hindustani classical training under Aman Ali Khan and then under Ustad Rahman Khan.

Dey's hallmark was his versatility; he was as adept at rendering complex classical-based numbers, qawalis, ghazals and bhajans as he was at singing buoyant romantic songs, soft pathos-laden ones and light, fun numbers.

Rafi had once told magazine reporters: "You say you love to listen to my songs. But I listen to Manna Dey's songs."

Dey recorded his last song for the film, Umar in 2006.


Born as Probodh Chandra Dey in Kolkata in 1919, he came to be affectionately known as Manna Dey when he ventured into playback singing. His parents were Purna Chandra Dey and Mahamaya Dey.

Dey studied at Scottish Church Collegiate School and then Scottish Church College. He did his post graduation from Vidyasagar College, Kolkata.

In his autobiography, Memories Come Alive, he had spoken of how football was his first passion and that he later turned to music under the influence of his guru, KC Dey.

The celebs tweeted:

T 1200 -Manna Dey, stalwart of the music world, passes away. Flooded with memories and his songs. In particular his rendition of Madhushala.

Amitabh Bachchan (@SrBachchan) October 24, 2013

T 1200 -Manna Dey RIP .. !! Prayers and condolences to loved ones and family ! Strange how we connect events of our life with his songs !

In Manna Dey, we have lost a legendary singer. His immortal voice will remain with us forever. May his soul rest in peace.
