Lyricist Shakeel Badayuni’s Death Anniversary

Badayun, UTTAR PRADESH / Mumbai, MAHARASHTRA :

Today is Lyricist Shakeel Badayuni’s death anniversary. Though he did not have poetry background like the other poets, Shakeel Sahab’s inspiration was his distant relative Zia-ul-Qasiri Badayuni, a religious poet. Honored by the Indian government as Geetkar-e-Azam (great lyricist), he penned several beautiful songs for about 89 Bollywood movies.
