Nisar bazmi (1924 -- March 22, 2007) was a respected music composer of the Sub-continent from Pakistan. Nisar bazmi was responsible for introducing Alamgir to film music in Pakistan and the famous duo of Laxmikant-Piyarelal were musicians with him before the partition of South Asia. He was born in 1924 in Khandesh, Naseerabad, India . His father was Syed Qudrat Ali. He had no musical background. Nisar bazmi's musical interest impressed the prominent Indian musician of Bombay, Khan Saheb Aman Ali Khan who taught him music. Equipped with artistic talent, young Nisar bazmi, who was just 13 at the time, quickly mastered the various ragas, the musical instruments and took all music lessons to heart.
In 1939, the All India Radio (A.I.R) hired him as an artist, which later proved to be a stepping stone for his future aspirations. The magic moment came in the year 1944 when he composed some songs for a drama, Nadir Shah Durrani, which was broadcast from the Bombay Radio Station. All the songs of this drama were hits. A new Indian film producer at that time was moved by Nisar bazmi's composition and asked him to compose music for his film Jamna Par. After that he enjoyed a successful career in India, composing music for almost 40 flims, with 14 films released after he migrated to Pakistan on June 21, 1962. Once permanently settled in Pakistan, he resumed his music career by simultaneously composing songs for two movies. Director Raza Mir's movie Lakhoan Mein Aik's mega hit songs extol the virtues of Nisar's top rated composition.
During his musical career in Pakistan he composed many hit songs for Runa Laila, Ahmed Rushdi, Noor Jehan and Mehdi Hassan. Nisar bazmi received many Nigar Awards for his achievements.

Extract from Old Archives of daily Jang.
Nisar bazmi
(1925-2007)
Legendary film composer Nisar bazmi passed away in a Karachi hospital on the evening of March 22nd 2007. bazmi Sahab, as he was called in the film trade, was born in India and turned to music in his early teens.
His first chance came with a theatrical production in Mumbai called Nadir Shah Durrani. He had also worked before worked at All India Radio in Mumbai. His film career began when he was twenty-one with Jamana Paar (1946). And even though bazmi Sahab went on to compose for dozen of mediocre titles like Jeb Kutra, Extra Girl, Daghabaaz Dost, Bholey Bhaley, Josh, Ghazab, Ram Bharosey, Gorilla, Khooj, Adam Khor, Pyara Dushman, Silver King, Bhala Admi, Kal Kia Ho Ga, Jungle Prince and Khaufnaak Ankhaeen, he always remained blunt and was always frank to admit that he never was able to get a prestigious assignment in Mumbai. Asha Bhonsle may have sung for him, but back then it was only Lata who counted.
According to Nisar bazmi, his film share in Mumbai consisted of almost entirely stunt; Low-B and even C rated films. He desperately wanted to cross the border and compose for Noor Jehan, the woman whose migration to Pakistan left the Indian Film industry an open playing field for Lata Mangeshkar.
bazmi Sahab migrated to Pakistan around 1962 and settled at Karachi. It was tough to get film assignments here or at Lahore. The film music scene was dominated by Khwaja Khursheed Anwar, Rashid Attrey, Chishti, Inayat Hussain and they were joined in by Sohail Rana and Robin Ghosh. So where exactly did Nisar bazmi fit in?
His first assignment in Karachi was Head Constable which was an instant disaster. However, he managed to have his wish come true with Noor Jehan's 'Ai Kash Merey Lub Pey Tera Naam Na Aata'. Saleem Raza's 'Jan-e-Jaan Pyar Aa Raha Hai' was also a soothing melody but Karachi's poor orchestra was a damaging factor. For a good Class A orchestra, one had to move down to Lahore in those days.
Nisar bazmi didn't have to wait for long. He was signed by Fazal Karim Fazli for Aisa Bhi Hota Hai in 1964 and the film came out with smashing musical score in 1965: Noor Jehan and Ahmad Rushdi's all -time popular hit 'Mohabbat Mey Terey Sar Ki Qasam' and Noor Jehan's solo number 'Ho Tamanna Aur Kiya Jaane Tamanna Aap Hain'. This was then the beginning of Nisar bazmi in Pakistan and there was no looking back. Raza Mir and Syed Afzal Hussain's Lakhon Mein Eik in 1966 turend bazmi Sahab into a superstar. Aasra, Aag, Jaise Jante Nahi, Anjuman, Umrao Jan Ada, Andaleeb, Anmol, Wafa, Saiqa, Taj Mahal,Tehzeeb, Dushman, Pehchan, Talaash, Sachai, Anila, Nag Mani and the rest are all now our precious film and music history.
Talking about music, Nisar bazmi recalled that there are some ragas which settle firmly at the very earliest stage like Kalyan on which he based popular ghazal of Ahmad Faraz in Mehdi Hassan's voice from film Mohabbat -- 'Ranjish Hi Sahi'. He also praised Runa Laila who at the age of 13 was able to grasps all the teachings of bazmi Sahab. Many of her songs were okayed by Nisar bazmi in the trial takes. And then there were though assignments like 'Jo Bacha Tha Woh Lutaney Ke Liye Aye Haeen' in Umrao Jan Ada by Noor Jehan where bazmi Sahib worked for 17 hours and he was still not satisfied on what came out. One guess is that Noor Jehan by now had lost some of her magic and her vocal cords had been partly or wholly damaged by excess she had committed with too many loud Punjabi compositions.
Nisar bazmi composed for more than seventy films in Pakistan in over 35 years and spent last part of his life in Karachi, mostly teaching young music enthusiasts. He also composed some of the best TV national songs: 'Yeh Watan Tumhara Hai', 'Khayal Rakhna' and 'Hum Zinda Qaum Hain'. Today, physically, Nisar bazmi is no longer with us. He would always be with us through his compositions and the imaginative use of a highly impressive orchestra that became his signature.
