Early life

Laxmikant

Laxmikant Shantaram Kudalkar was born on the day of Laxmi Pujan, Dipawali on 3 November Probably, because of the day of his birth, his parents named him Laxmikant, which is a name of Lord Vishnu, consort of Goddess Laxmi.

His father died when he was a child. Because of the poor financial condition of the family he could not complete his academic education either.[3] Laxmikant's father's friend, a musician himself, advised Laxmikant and his elder brother to learn music. Accordingly, Laxmikant learned to play the mandolin and his elder brother learned to play the tabla.

He spent two years in the company of the well-known mandolin player Hussain Ali. He began organising and performing in Indian Classical instrumental music concerts to earn some money. Later, in the s, he also learned mandolin from Bal Mukund Indorker and violin from Husnalal (of the Husanlal Bhagatram fame). Laxmikant began his film career as a child actor in the films Bhakt Pundalik () and Aankhen ().

He also acted in some Gujarati films.[4]

Pyarelal

Pyarelal Ramprasad Sharma (born 3 September ) is the son of a renowned trumpeter Pandit Ramprasad Sharma (popularly known as Babaji), who taught him the basics of music. He started learning violin at the age of 8 and practised it 8 to 12 hours daily.

He learnt to play violin from a Goan musician named Anthony Gonsalves. The song "My Name Is Anthony Gonsalves" from the movie Amar Akbar Anthony is regarded as a tribute to Mr. Gonsalves (the movie had music by Laxmikant–Pyarelal).[5]

    After Laxmikant's death

    After Laxmikant's death, Pyarelal has done some work independently.

    Yet, Pyarelal always used the name 'Laxmikant–Pyarelal' for all the future compositions.

    Style

    Laxmikant-Pyarelal’s compositions were characterized by their complexity and depth, often infusing Indian classical music with Western orchestration.

    This fusion created a unique sonic experience that was both novel and timeless, ensuring that their songs stood out in the rapidly evolving music scene. Signature works, such as those for the films Bobby () and Amar Akbar Anthony (), exemplified their knack for innovation, combining catchy rhythms with melodic richness that appealed to a wide audience.

    Their music not only complemented the narrative of the films but also enhanced the emotional connection of the viewers with the characters and stories.[57][13]

    Laxmikant-Pyarelal experimented with different genres, such as creating a disco-like sound for the film Karz ().

    They also westernized a ghazal for the same film, "Dard-e-dil Dard-e-jigar". They were also known for using large orchestras. For example, they used around 72 violinists for the song "Chanchal Sheetal Nirmal Komal" from Satyam Shivam Sundaram ().[1]

    Controversies

    Plagiarism

    Some of Laxmikant-Pyarelal's songs featured the tunes of popular foreign songs, such as "Ek Rasta Do Rahi" from Ram Balram () was inspired by KC and the Sunshine Band's "That's the Way (I Like It)", "Ek Haseena Thi" from Karz () was taken up from by George Benson's "We as Love (Live)", "Saathiya Tu Mere Sapno Ka Meet Hai" from Insaan () was inspired by Brotherhood of Man's "Angelo" and "Jumma Chumma De De" from Hum () was found to be similar to Mory Kanté's "Tama".[68][69] Responding to the allegations, Pyarelal said "There was a lot of pressure from actors and producers.

    For instance, the song Jumma chumma was in the movie Hum just because of the pressure from Amitabh Bachchan. Out of the odd movies that we have done, we must have copied 50 songs because of pressure".[70]
