Mehdi Hasan Music Biography

Famous Bollywood singer Lata Mangeshkar once said "Mehdi Hasan kay galay mein bhagwan bolta hai" (God speaks through Mehdi Hasan). Mehdi Hasan's singing career began with the ghazal Meray Khayal-0- Khwab Ki Duniya Liye Huway. His magnificent and magical masterpieces have refused to age with the passage of time. There is a long list of ghazals sung by Mehdi Hasan and picking out just one as the best is very difficult. In the mid-eighties, Radio Pakistan's announcer Azim Sarwar said that Elahi Aansoo Bhari Zindagi Kisi Ko Na Day is Mehdi Hasan's number one song, but of course many would argue. Mehdi Hasan's superb art is evident everywhere throughout his work. He song the memorable patriotic songs Allah Kay Waday Pay Mujahid Ko Yaqeen Hai and Sohni Dharti Allah Rakhay for his beloved Pakistan. In the past years Mehdi's fame has spread around the globe and his distinct voice will continue to capture the hearts and minds of his innumerable fans well into this century.
