==Difference between Nashad and Naushad== | |||
In 1953, film director, Nakshab Jarachavi, had Shaukat Ali change his name to Nashad, which he retained for the rest of his life. The story behind the name change has been written in the book "Naushad: Zarra Jo Aaftaab Bana" (Penguin). The film director initially approached [[Naushad|Naushad Ali]] for composing the music for his film. When Naushad Ali refused, the irate director Nakshab Jarchavi then had Shaukat Ali change his name to Nashad, to make it sound like Naushad. Nashad then composed for Jarchavi's 1953 film ''[[Naghma]]'', starring [[Nadira (actress)|Nadira]] and [[Ashok Kumar]].<ref name=cinestaan2>[https://www.cinestaan.com/articles/2016/jan/14/429 How music director Shaukat Ali became Nashad] Cinestaan.com website, Published 8 July 2016, Retrieved 21 December 2021</ref><ref name=Samaa/> | |||
==Interview from 1955== | ==Interview from 1955== | ||
In August 1955, Nashad talked at length in an interview as to how composing film songs for [[Indian Film Industry]] was done back in those days. He said that when he was hired as a film music composer, his 'first job' usually was to sit with the film director and determine the musical situations in the upcoming film. After these discussions and back-and-forth suggestions, he would start composing the melodies to match with the mood of those situations in the film. Once the tune of the film song is agreed upon, then the lyricist writes the words of the approved tune. | In August 1955, Nashad talked at length in an interview as to how composing film songs for [[Indian Film Industry]] was done back in those days.

In this interview, Nashad described just one method of composing film melodies. As we know, people in the film industry sometimes also use just the opposite method of composing film songs – for example in [[Pakistan]], the eminent poet [[Faiz Ahmed Faiz]] had written his famous [[nazm]], ''Mujh Se Pehli Si Mohabbat Mere Mehboob Na Maang'' without having the foggiest idea that it would be later used in a 1962 Pakistani film ''Qaidi'' and then would go on to become hugely popular among the public. Of course some of the credit should also go to the music director [[Rasheed Attre]] and his son Wajahat Attre who worked very hard to come up with the final song composition (per Wajahat Attre's interview years later) and no doubt the singer [[Noor Jehan]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://images.dawn.com/news/1174067 |title=Did Noor Jehan take away 'Mujh Se Pehli Si Muhabbat' from Faiz Ahmad Faiz?|author=Manish Gaekwad|date=19 October 2015|publisher=Dawn (newspaper)| | In this interview, Nashad described just one method of composing film melodies.
