Shankar-Jaikishan (SJ) are music directors duo who have left a great impact on world music with their lively and forceful musical compositions. Though I do not have adequate knowledge about technical aspects of music, I have attempted to share my opinion about SJ music due to my long association with different music/songs around the world as a listener.

The zing of music from Shankar-Jaikishan always makes me happy. Even the sad Shankar-Jaikishan songs at unhappy moments of mine have made a positive impression on me. I have listened to songs/music by other music composers including those from other parts of the world. I am also aware of several inspirations of Shankar-Jaikishan music from pre-existing or existing phenomena. However, the variations of musical notes and smearing tunes between foreground and background have always forced me to call them as the KING music composers. They have created music that is impossible by human. It touches heart, mind, and soul – and reverberates the atmosphere with divine rhyme.

I cannot pay a tribute to Shankar-Jaikishan as their creation can never be reviewed within any human domain – except that it can only be felt; and we, as human being, can always take advantage to listen to their divine tunes. I always refer to them as two angels who visited world, and left their divine impression with mankind for ever.
