Dear Guptaji, thanks for a very neat and hearty essay on the the poet in Gopaldas Saxena, who wrote nicest poems for Hindi films in his pen name Neeraj. He belongs to the contemporary times as much as to the past. Thanks for posting some of his finest creations.
Sir, I am particularly moved by your regret. You have more than made up for the regret by writing a fine poetic portrait.
Sir, you have a fine penmanship with sensible writing faculty to carry along a wide range of readers. I think, unfortunately, the poet is lost to the partisan journalist in you. May be, the media think sensible writing doesn’t sell.
What an exemplary and nobel gesture of paying glowing tributes to an icon of poetry and lyrics- * GOPALDAS NEERAJ * !
Sans any doubt, Neeraj belonged to a grand golden age of poetry and lyricism in India enchanting poetry and music lovers
all over the world !
His untimely departure is a sad blow to poetry and melody not only in India but in all the four directions of the globe !
Bidding an adieu to this world, Neeraj has joined the immortal souls as well as evergreen galaxy of legends of poetry- Raja Mehdi Ali Khan, Shailendra, Sahir Ludhianvi, Shakeel Badayuni, Hasrat Jaipuri, Majrooh Sultanpuri, Anand Bakshi,Indeevar and Kaifi Azmi !
Neeraj entertained poetry and music lovers with his wonderful and heart- touching creations winning wide acclaim in the annals of
poetry and melody ! He will live for ever among us because of his qualities of head and heart and deep passion for creativity to bestow
intellect, joy and pleasure upon his fans in every nook and corner of this universe !
I am grateful to you, Gupta Ji, for taking me back to the mid nineteen sixties and nineteen seventies of my never ever forgettable school and college days ! This music magical era regaled and spell bound poetry and music lovers !
What the evergreen and everlasting decades of poetry and melody those happened to be, haunting us even today as well !
