A musical journey with Javed Akhtar!

Veteran lyricist, writer and poet Javed Akhtar to host a new show 'The Golden years- a musical journey with Javed Akhtar'.



Veteran lyricist, writer and poet Javed Akhtar will present the untold stories of musical maestros and their soulful renditions from that period.

In the early decades of filmmaking, when there was a dearth of advanced musical instruments and recording innovations, a host of talented artists, lyricists and music composers created melodies through sheer hard-work and gave us songs that remain as an asset to the Indian Film Industry.
 
Zee Classic's 'The Golden Years' show will span over 26 weekly episodes concluding with a special finale episode, designed by none other than Mr. Javed Akhtar. Each episode will take audiences through the journey of music excellence of a particular year in chronological order starting from 1950 with a contemporary look and feel.

An elated Javed Akhtar who announced the show in New Delhi said, "This is my fourth association with Zee Classic. Our association has created content that film lovers will treasure forever and the making of 'The Golden Years' has just taken our wonderful association ahead. The period from 1950 to 1975 was the time when artists like C. Ramachandran, Rajendra Krishan, Talat Mahmood, Naushad, Shaheeda Begum, S.D Burman, Lata Mangeshkar, Kishore Kumar, Gulzar and R.D Burman graced the Hindi film music. Those years were really memorable for the industry and gave us compositions which still remain unmatched. I am really glad to celebrate their contribution to cinema and I congratulate Zee Classic for creating this unique property for its audiences."
