Legend of Music Kersi Lord and Lonavala…

Hi,

This is Jasmin Lord and I am the co-owner of Lonavala Holiday and I hope you are enjoying the blog so far. Today I just wanted to take a little diversion (well, sort of) and introduce you to a great legend in the Indian Film Industry. (Read on…)

Everybody who loves Indian music, especially Indian music that comes from the ‘Golden Era’, the 1960s and 70s, has to have admired the unique beats of the background score for the film Shalimar (1978), the very unusual music arrangement for the film Saathi (1968), the melodious arrangement of ‘Tum jo mil gaye ho’ from the movie Hanste Zakhm (1971) and the quintessential magic lighter theme from the movie Hum Dono (1973).

These are but a few highlights of the extremely successful professional career of musician, composer, arranger, conductor and multi-instrumentalist, Kersi Lord. Kersi, also fondly known as Kersi Baba by his peers, has recently launched his own website in a bid to share his experience of the music industry with all his fans and fellow music lovers. His ever witty and intriguing personality, along with the wealth of experience he has making music with the legends of his time, makes for a fascinating read. If you want to cash in on this opportunity to hear his story, visit his website Kersi Lord.

Not many know this but Kersi Lord’s favourite hill station happens to be Lonavala. He considers this beautiful little town to be almost like a second home, enjoying the occasional visit to his bungalow there.
