Deebo Bhattacharya (1 August 1930 – 1994), also known as Debu Bhattacherjee, was a Pakistani-Bangladeshi musician, painter and singer who worked in Lollywood movies during the 1960s and 1970s.

He was one of the well known composers in Bangladesh as well. He is known for composing the classic Urdu song "Bare bemurawat hein ye husn walay, kahein dil laganay ki koshish na karna" for the film Badnaam (1966).[1] After 1971, he became a citizen of Bangladesh. [2] He was awarded Ekushey Padak in 1976 by the Government of Bangladesh.[2]

He earned the first ever Bangladesh National Film Award for Best Music Director for Choritrohin (1975) jointly with Lokman Hossain Fakir. He was conferred Ekushey Padak posthumously in 1997 for his lifetime contribution to Bengali music.[3]

Early life and career[edit | edit source]

Deebo was born into a Bengali family. He arrived in Pakistan from India in 1956 to work as an assistant to Indian music director Timir Baran who was going to compose music for the film Anokhi (1956 film). While Timir Baran moved back to India after composing for a few Pakistani films, Deebo remained in Pakistan and settled down in Karachi.[4]

In 1957, his first film as a solo music director, Maska Polish, was released. The movie was a box office disappointment but the songs in Ahmed Rushdi's voice gained recognition for Deebo. The same fate befell his next two movies, Yeh Duniya (1960) and Lakhoun Fasane (1961).[1]

With the release of Banjaran (1962), he rose to notoriety, and the song "Na jane kaisa safar hai mera", sung by Noor Jehan, became a hit. The other milestone of Deebo's career was the film Badnaam (1966). One of its songs, "Bare Bemurawat Hain Yei Husn Waale, Kahin Dil Lagane Ko Koshish Na Karna", vocalized by Suraiya Multanikar, is considered one of his most timeless tunes.[1]

In 1968, he composed songs for producer Waheed Murad's film Sumandar including the theme song, Tera Mera Sathi Hai Lehrata Sumandar (singer- Ahmed Rushdi).

In the 1960s and 1970s, he composed music for several other films, including; Shararat (1963), Beti (1964), Taqdeer (1966), Meray Bachay Meri Ankhen (1967), Bahadur (1967), Jhuk Gaya Aasman (1970) and Tiger Gang (1974).[1][4][5]
