Sachin Dev Burman (1 October 1906 – 31 October 1975) was an Indian music director and singer. He identified himself as a son of Mother Bengal.[1] He was a member of the Tripura royal family, but his father was excluded from the throne.[2][3] He started his career with Bengali films in 1937. He later began composing for Hindi movies and became one of the most successful and influential Indian film music composers. Burman composed the soundtracks for over 100 movies, including Bengali films and Hindi.[2][4][5]
Apart from being a versatile composer, he also sang songs in folk style of East Bengal and light semi-classical. His son, R. D. Burman, was also a celebrated music composer for Bollywood films.[2][3]
