. Cathy has six pairs of black gloves and six pairs of brown gloves in her drawer. In complete darkness, how many gloves must she take from the drawer in order to be sure to get a pair that match? Think carefully!!

GOPAL SHARMA famous radio announcer
Ameen Sayani and Gopal Sharma are the 2 most recognizable voices on the radio apart from the singers whose songs they have played by the hundreds. Gopal Sharma has said in Times Of India - Jan 5/2000 :
" The most popular singer is not one who has sung the most, but one whose songs became more popular in quantity than another singer. If Talat Mahmood sang 800 songs and they all became popular then he is definitely more popular than another singer whose songs number in thousands ! "

Talat's son Khalid who had accompanied his father to the Rashtrapati Bhavan for the Investiture Ceremony has this interesting recollection........
Talat had been briefed by Protocol, as to how, once his name is announced, he should walk straight up to the President, get the award, then without looking left or right, step back, turn around and go back to his seat. The Ceremony began and the invitees were giving each awardee a polite but short round of applause. But the moment Talat's name was announced, the entire hall erupted into a frenzy of clapping and cheering ! The invitees began turning around in their chairs and craning their necks to catch a glimpse of the man whose music had been a part of their lives for so many decades ! Talat got up from his seat and amidst this enormous cheering and clapping finally reached the President. But the moment he reached the President the Press photographers corner began calling and shouting his name "Talat sahab, this way, this way, please one photo... please look this way...." Talat did not look in their direction as he remembered Protocol telling him not to look away from the President. But the Press corp was persistent and kept up the chant of "Talat sahab, please... this way...one photo" Finally, a smiling President, realising that the photographers were not going to let go of their beloved Talat Mahmood so easily, graciously held Talat's hand and gently turned him towards the Press photographers so that they could click to their hearts content and finally get their photo of their much loved much respected and much admired Talat Mahmood ! With Prime Minister of India Jawaharlal Nehru, President of India Dr. Radhakrishan being introduced to the singing superstar of the country With former Defence Minister, Home Minister and Maharashtra's first & most powerful Chief Minister, Y.B. Chavan - who was a great fan of the silken voiced Talat Mahmood

DID YOU KNOW THAT ......
.......... Music Director Naushad says in INDIAN EXPRESS 20.9.81 :"I have a very high opinion of Talat Mahmood. He has a fine style. When he sings ghazals it is in his own unique inimitable sweet style. Sweetness is indispensable to a proper singing of the ghazal. Besides, he has mastery over the language. He knows which words to emphasize and which not to. You will never hear any lines misread from Talat Mahmood's lips !"
.......... Radio singer Suman Hemmadey's ( later Suman Kalyanpur ) first film song was a duet with Talat Mahmood in "Darwaza". A rank newcomer, her career hit the big league when Talat agreed to sing the duet with her, making the film industry sit up and take notice of her.
.......... Talat Mahmood and Dilip Kumar would meet regularly for a game of badminton at Bandra Gymkhana during the sixties. Dilip Kumar and his entire family of brothers and sisters were very close to Talat and his wife and they would meet often.
.......... Doordarshan's documentary on Talat Mahmood "Sham e Gham Ki Qasam" was to have been the first color documentary by Doordarshan after television went color in early 80's, but it got delayed by a few months and was released a little later than scheduled. Viewers loved "Sham e Gham Ki Qasam" and Doordarshan was flooded with requests for repeat telecasts of this show. Even today it is shown on TV due to a public demand for it ! This documentary on Talat was of one and half hour duration and it's budget could rival that of a small budget commercial film ! This was Doordarshan's first color documentary on any playback singer !
.......... On Talat's US Concert Tour, Talat's popularity prompted famous New York television host Joe Franklin to invite Talat on his hugely popular programme "The Joe Franklin Show" watched by over 25 million Americans. He introduced Talat to American audiences as "The Frank Sinatra Of India !"
.......... Bombellis restaurant on Breach Candy was a one time favorite haunt of Talat and his close friends music directors Madan Mohan and Jaikishan (Shankar-Jaikishan). Being bachelors, they would compete to see who had the largest following of girls by counting how many came to ask each one for autographs ! Talat usually won hands down, as being a singer and star he was a more recognizable face, much to the 'dismay, annoyance and chagrin' of Madan and Jaikishan ! Talat would never stop pulling Jaikishan's and Madan's leg over this !
.......... Talat first met music director Madan Mohan when Madan came to live in Lucknow for a while. Their love for ghazals made them good friends. In a friendly gesture, Madan promised Talat that once he went back to Bombay and signed on films as a music director he would definitely use Talat's voice. Madan was true to his promise and Talat and Madan teamed up for many hits in many films including Jahan Ara, Madhosh, Ashiana, Haqeeqat and others. They enjoyed a close bond of friendship throughout their lives.
.......... Talat loved cars and driving. His line up of cars through the years included Morris Minor, Hillman, Ambassador, Maruti Van, Maruti 1000, Automatic Cielo. He would enjoy long drives out of Bombay with his family.
.......... Talat's favorite foreign singers were Nat 'King' Cole, Pat Boone, Bing Crosby, Elvis Presley and Connie Francis. His favorite stars were Gary Cooper, Clark Gable, Rock Hudson, John Wayne, Richard Burton and Sean Connery. He immensely enjoyed the antics of Laurel & Hardy and Charlie Chaplin and possessed a good collection of 8mm movies of the two ! On a concert tour, Talat would relax by reading novels of authors like Arthur Hailey, Harold Robbins, Jacqueline Susann, Ian Flemming and James Hadley Chase. He was very fascinated by the 'UFO' or Unidentified Flying Objects theory and loved reading about them ! He was a regular subscriber to Newsweek, Time and Life magazines. Well informed on World events, Talat could hold his own in any discussion on World matters.
.......... Asked by 'The Metropolis' 27.2.93 : You sang many duets with Lata, Geeta, Asha. How would you compare them ? Talat replied - " Lata was musically far ahead of the rest. She was a perfectionist, working hard on each song. Geeta was very good at catching the mood of a song, she could do it spontaneously. Asha, I would say, had the maximum variety. She could sing any kind of song effortlessly. Singing duets with them was always a challenge - each singer tried to outdo the other. It was great fun ! "
.......... Producer-Director-Studio Owner Mehboob Khan of 'Mother India' fame, would always put his finger on Talat's throat and tell him " Khuda ka noor tumhare gale mein hai ! "
.......... Amongst the playback singers, only Talat Mahmood and Lata Mangeshkar have been honoured by the prestigious and highly respected PADMABHUSHAN AWARD by the Government of India. ( Mohd. Rafi, Manna Dey, Mahendra Kapoor are recipients of the lesser PADMASHREE AWARD) This award is not given by any private organization or magazine but by the Government of the country itself. This should go a long way in proving who the really great singers of the Indian film industry are !!!
.......... Talat loved sweets and no meal was complete without a sweet dish. His favorite sweets were things like rasgoola, kheer, phirni, gaajar ka halwa, pastries, imported chocolates, etc.
.......... Among the many gifts Talat received through his lifetime was a beautiful Persian carpet presented to him by King Zahir Shah of Afghanistan who was a great fan of Talat's. Another preserved gift was a beautiful white marble statue of a woman presented to him by the Maharani of Rajpipla. King Birender of Nepal gifted Talat with a beautiful ornate 'bell'.
.......... Talat was very fond of electronic gadgets and was always the first to buy them the moment they hit the market - things like video player, electric shaver, the first Phillips cassette player, electric toothbrush, the Walkman, 8mm camera and Projector etc.
.......... Talat was to perform at a public concert in Khatmandu, Nepal, which was to be attended by King Birender and his family. Knowing that the King wrote poetry, Talat procured a book of poems written by the King, composed a tune for it and sang it as a surprise item at the concert, much to the delight of King Birender and his family !
......... World renowned classical flautist Hari Prasad Chaurasia's very first film recording was for Talat Mahmmod's hit song 'Phir wohi shaam wohi gham....' from the film JAHAN ARA. Hari Prasad Chaurasia cherishes memories of this first recording even today !
.......... During the 80's ghazal "boom" when every bathroom singer felt he could sing ghazals and cut discs by the dozens, music companies had got into the cheap publicity gimmick of generously "gifting" these singers gold / platinum/ double platinum/ triple platinums, ( even for sales as paltry as 500 copies ! ) to stimulate album sales. The popular women's magazine SAVVY - Feb. '86, calling Talat "The God of Ghazals" asked him this question: 'What do you think of all these gold and platinum discs these singers have been getting?' To which Talat replied : " It's very amusing. At every twist and turn they seem to be getting discs. Even Elvis Presley ( Guinness Book's world record holder ) would have got a complex !!! ".
.......... In his lifetime, Talat Mahmood had completed two Umrah's to the holy cities of Mecca and Medina. The first time with his wife Nasreen and the second time with his son Khalid and daughter Sabina
.......... Raju Bharatan, well known journalist and human encyclopedia on cricket and music, writing an article in Times of India - 17.12.89, paying tribute to India's finest "touch artiste supreme" - cricketing legend Mushtaq Ali, headlined his article with : "MUSHTAQ IS TO CRICKET WHAT TALAT IS TO GHAZALS !"
.......... The extremely popular group ' West Indies Steel Band' created a song to welcome Talat to Trinidad for his 1968 West Indies Concert Tour: "Talat Mahmood we are proud and glad - to have a personality like you here in Trinidad". This song, composed in Calypso style, was played over and over on the radio, at the airport and in all music shops in West Indies to welcome the immensely popular, loved and admired singing star Talat Mahmood to their country !
......... In the wake of the record breaking 58,000 attendance at Talat Mahmood's concert at Karachi in 1961, Pakistan's 'Mallika E Tarannum' Noorjehan, called up Talat from Lahore requesting him to join her in a concert at Lahore. Talat politely refused and expressed to her his inability to do the concert as he had to get back to Bombay for his scheduled film recordings and other engagements. Feeling that maybe Talat's refusal was on account of her not offering him the correct remuneration, she then offered to send him a blank cheque, to fill in any amount he desired ! But Talat once again very politely refused her offer ! Talat and Noorjehan met once again many years later, in 1982, when Noorjehan, as guest of honour, came down to Bombay to attend the "Mortal Men Immortal Melodies" concert where all the major names in Indian music performed. Meeting Talat warmly she said to him "Talat bhai, aap ki awaaz mein wohi kashish ab bhi hai !"

"Co-starring with Talat Mahmood in LALA RUKH was a dream come true for me. Even though this was my second film with him, my heart would still miss a beat whenever we acted together ! He was my heart-throb for as long as I can remember and I made it a point never to miss a song of his on the radio. One thing about Talat was that he was almost perfect, hardly troubling his directors with re-takes".

*** When producer Sohrab Modi (the Cecil B.

Not just one, but two top heroines were signed up to play the lead opposite Talat Mahmood - Suraiya, the highest paid heroine of her time and the beautiful Nadira !

After acting in Dil e Nadaan, she got married to a well known industrialist and gave up acting completely.
*** Talat Mahmood starred in the 1957 hit Ek Gaon Ki Kahani with the lovely Mala Sinha as heroine, directed by well known director Dulal Guha and produced by Satyen Bose ( who has also produced one of the biggest hits and highest box office grossers of all time - 'Dosti' )

Talat Mahmood was so popular that the American 555 State Express Cigarette Company used Talat in their Indian advertisements way back in the 1950's !!!
The 50's was the era of the Singing Star. America had Elvis Presley, England had Cliff Richard and India had Talat Mahmood ! Handsome, good looking men with fantastic voices and a distinguished style of singing that was all their own. The mere mention of their names on the silver screen was enough to pull in female crowds looking for gentle romantic fare, with clean cut story lines. Whether Elvis, Cliff or Talat, these singers were packaged and presented on the silver screen with the utmost of care. Nothing was left to chance. For them, it was nothing but the biggest producers, the biggest banners, the topmost heroines and of course, hand picked music composers to create those scintillating musical scores !
