Cinemaazi remembers D V Paluskar on his death anniversary
Hindustani classical vocalist, D V Paluskar / Pandit Dattatreya Vishnu Paluskar’s devotional and classical renditions, representative of the rich heritage of Gwalior, remain unmatched. Creating a sensitive and balanced synthesis, his singing was systematic, pristine, and effortless, reflecting the result of self-reflection, practice, and training, developed over long hours of application. He sang for just two films—a duet with Ustad Amir Khan in the film Baiju Bawra (1952) and for the Bengali film Shaap Mochan (1955), before he was snatched away by encephalitis, aged 35.
