A songwriter who gave a single great song broke because of one thing, became so anonymous that he died.

Mumbai. Verma Malik Biography: It is said that work speaks and it is true. Some people have done their work with such dedication that even though they are not around today, their work is appreciated. But it would be unfortunate that one whose work is remembered even today, when he left this world, no one knew about it. Today, when we talk about them, it seems that many geniuses have passed away whose talent never got the recognition it deserved. There is a lyricist in Bollywood who wrote many songs for Bollywood films but his last days were shrouded in obscurity. Come on, let’s tell…

The lyricist we are talking about here is Varma Malik. After entering the film world, he changed his name to Verma Malik. His real name was Barkat Rai Malik and he was born on 13 April 1925. Verma Malik participated in the Indian freedom movement and instilled a sense of patriotism in the people through his songs and for this he went to jail several times. After independence, he decided to make writing his career and music director Hans Raj Bahl helped him in this task.

When I separated myself from everyone else
Be it sarcastic or heart touching songs, Verma Malik has sung them. He wrote them all very well and many of his songs are still on people’s lips today. Songs like ‘Chalo Re Doli Udhao’ or ‘Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai’ are played even today. Verma Malik’s songs created a lot of buzz in Bollywood but he was deeply saddened when his wife died of old age. After the death of his wife, Verma Malik cut himself off from the world and confined his world to a single room. His assistant director son Rajesh Malik asked him to write several times but he never picked up his pen again. He left this world peacefully on March 15, 2009. It would be unfortunate that the news of his demise was not published in any newspaper…

Today is my friend’s wedding…
Come on, pick up the doll…
Basti Basti City City…
Alas, this compulsion, this season…
There was an uproar…
not in love with you
All that remains is inflation…
Panditji, after my death…
A star said…
May my love last so long…
