Since 'Hamraaz' and I finished the tedious task of data entering, editing, updating, checking, improving for 1931 to 1985. I've been working on this new project to try to present the data in a different way.

Notes:

1. Only the data from 1971 to 1980 is there at present.

2. The Hindi version is almost complete but still More information needs to be added.

3. The English version is a work in progress, not finished yet.

Khurshid Anwar was an eminent music director of the Indian Sub-Continent. Some of you may know that I edited a book based on his interviews published in Urdu, in Daily Imroze, Lahore during July - September 1983. The interviews were translated into English and a complete filmography was included.

I am happy to report that Khwaja Khurshid Anwar Trust and Irfan Anwar have allowed me to make the book available for free. I am grateful to them.

Here is a pdf of the book
