composed the music in 1999. He received a Filmfare Award for Best New Music

Aapni Roshni ko bujhne mat dijiye. Aapne is bachchi ko hubahu pahachhana and uski ek appropriate naam diye. Aabhi woh to jeet nehi saki lekin iski jo talent hai use zinda rakhne ki jimmedari bhi aapke hathme har. VOI-2 me agar koi magical singer the to woh thi aapki Roshni. We definitely want to hear her in future.

| | culture_freak (India) | | 2 years ago ( 2007-10-10 00:46:45 ) | Just read the news that Ismailbhai is organising the largest-ever 'garba' / 'dandiya rass' dance event in Surat (Gujarat) during the upcoming Navratra festivals.
Three cheers and all the best Ismailbhai, but don't forget / ignore Srgmp on account of the garba. | |
