I-m planning to start a music academy- Pyarelal

By Suman
Pyarelal

We were shown into a tastefully done hall with a great sea view that boasted of very comfortable sofas, a big piano and of course 7 Filmfare awards resting on a showcase. Fragrant and auspicious fumes of dhoop indicated that a pooja was on and soon we had the musical virtuoso Pyarelalji entering the hall in a neatly pressed kurta- pyjama with a smile on his face that immediately gave the impression of a happy man at peace with himself. Next three hours were absolutely spell- binding as he narrated several stories from his childhood, learning years, illustrious career as well as personal life all of which he holds very close to his heart. One of them was how his father Pandit Ramprasad Sharma (known as Babaji in the industry), a renowned trumpeter created hundreds of musicians out of people from very ordinary backgrounds – son of a driver, a gate- keeper, or a studio watchman- all were given education in music. One interesting story is once when he was admitted in a hospital, he taught music to the hospital staff and nurses. While narrating this story Pyarelalji’s eyes gleamed with pride and he added that such dedication and selfless service is rare to find nowadays.
