Veteran Bollywood composer dies

Naushad believed his best was yet to come
One of Bollywood's best known music composers, Naushad Ali, has died at the age of 86.
The veteran composer died after suffering from a heart attack in the western Indian city of Mumbai (Bombay), where he had been in hospital.

Naushad composed scores for some of Bollywood's biggest hits.

One of his classics, Mughal-e-Azam, recently became the first Bollywood film to be officially released in Pakistan in decades.

His son Iqbal Naushad told the BBC that his father had been admitted to hospital some time ago because of heart trouble.

With his death... the phase of Indian classical music that existed in our films has ended

Send us your tributes to Naushad

He said the funeral would be held some time during the day.

Bollywood diva Lata Mangeshkar who has sung a lot of his compositions told the BBC News website that she was very saddened by his death.

"I went to him in 1948 for work and have known him since then," she said.

"With his death, a generation of music composers has ended. The phase of Indian classical music that existed in our films has ended."

In a recent interview with the BBC's Hindi website, Naushad had said he believed he was yet to compose his best music.

"My best tune is yet to come. Let me get better and then I'll show you what I can produce," he said.

Veteran composer

Naushad began his career in the 1930s and composed the scores for some of the biggest hits of the 1950s and 1960s.

Apart from Mughal-e-Azam (1960), he composed the music for Andaz (1949), Baiju Bawra (1952), Mother India (1957) and Pakeezah - the Pure One (1971).

He was awarded one of India's highest civilian awards, the Padma Bhushan, in 1992.

In 1982 he also received the Dadasaheb Phalke award - named after the father of Indian cinema - for his "lifetime contribution to Indian cinema".

Didn't Naushad also do the opening narration in Pakeezah and in Mughal-e-Azam?

One more giant of the industry is gone. He left a legacy of great music.
