KHALID TALAT MAHMOOD & DILIP KUMAR REMEMBER 'KING OF GHAZALS' TALAT MAHMOOD

  • 7 years ago
Khalid Mahmood has performed in many concerts around the world, singing his own hits as well as the hits of his evergreen father Talat Mahmood. Talat fans have enjoyed the all-time big hits of their favorite singer 'King of Ghazals' Talat Mahmood in the dulcet voice of his son Khalid Mahmood, accompanied by a full compliment of live orchestra, playing original melodies and scores. Khalid's shows dedicated to his father titled 'EK SHAAM TALAT MAHMOOD KE NAAM' are being talked about enthusiastically by music lovers, as listening to Talat hits from Talat's own flesh and blood is a completely different experience than listening to it from from some Tom, Dick or Harry trying to pathetically "imitate" or "copy" the great Talat Mahmood! Khalid has performed not just all over India but also in foreign countries like England, America, Middle East, Holland, Sri Lanka and Nigeria, to packed halls and extremely appreciative audiences!

Bestowed with a voice gifted in musical lineage and coupled with striking good looks, this trendy singer began his singing career in 1987 with the release of the chart topping hit 'THIS IS KHALID' and reached the forefront of the ghazal horizon in the 90's. Numerous press write-ups hailed his dynamic style of pop ghazal presentation and a whole new generation of pop ghazal lovers followed his style !

Very selective about choosing only the best ghazals of renowned ghazal stalwarts, Khalid has maintained the high standard of poetry set by his father, the legendary 'Shahenshah e Ghazal' Talat Mahmood. However, where composing and orchestration is concerned, Khalid has blazed his own trail. Gifted with a deep, soft and sensuous voice, this talented singer composes with a mix of Indian, American and Latin American sounds and rhythm patterns, in a complete deviation from previous ghazal trends and a creation which is all his own, a creation which has set female hearts a-flutter in countries like USA, England, Nigeria, Muscat, Holland, Canada, Dubai, Sri Lanka, Saudi Arabia and Abu Dhabi, where Khalid's albums have recorded chart topping sales. He has also appeared on Talk Shows of BBC, Voice Of America, Radio Kuwait, Radio Mauritius etc.

Another feather in Khalid's cap is that he is the first singer son to start a website in honor and memory his legendary father titled www.talatmahmood.net With over 700 rare photographs, fact file, press clips, complete songs list and tons of nostalgic memorabilia, all from the personal collection of the 'King Of Ghazals' himself, this website is a treasure trove for all Talat Mahmood and Khalid Mahmood fans ! With over 50,000,000 page requests every month from fans all around the world, this is easily one of the most popular websites since 1996 on the internet today. So take a walk down memory lane with the 'Shahenshah E Ghazal' Talat Mahmood
