Kumar Sanu and music composer R.D. Burman had a fruitful collaboration in the Indian music industry. They had composed music for several Bollywood films in the earlier times and the songs remain evergreen. However, a lot many songs in which Kumar Sanu and R.D. Burman had collaborated are yet out.

In an exclusive interview with Bollywood Hungama, Kumar Sanu revealed that Gulshan Kumar had created a music bank which still has several songs that are not yet released. Sanu said, “I have sung several songs for Pancham Da (R.D. Burman) including 2-3 Bengali films. T-Series (earlier known as Super Cassettes) has atleast 15 - 20 songs of Pancham Da and mine. I don’t know why they are not releasing those songs. It would have been great if they released it.”

Recalling the time when music bank started, Kumar Sanu said, “Gulshan Ji (Gulshan Kumar: Founder of T-Series) was creating a music bank that time. He used to get atleast 10-20 songs recorded by every music director for the music bank. He had established a system where a producer comes, chooses a song from the music bank and takes it. It was like shopping.”

He added, “So, when Gulshan Ji made music bank, I sang several songs for him.” “Recordings used to take place on a regular basis. We had no idea when and where or which film the song will be getting used for,” said the singer.

Kumar Sanu and R.D. Burman collaborated on several hit songs, including ‘Tum Se Milne Ki Tamanna Hai’ from the movie Saajan, ‘Aankhon Ki Gustakhiyan’ from Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam, and ‘Mera Dil Bhi Kitna Pagal Hai’ from Saajan.

R.D. Burman passed away in 1994, leaving a void in the Indian music industry. However, his music continues to inspire and influence many budding musicians even today, and Kumar Sanu's renditions of his songs are still cherished by music lovers all over the world.
