He has had a powerful impact on not just the ghazal style of music but also bhajana, tappe and Punjabi music. Let's take a look at some of the great hits of Jagjit Singh that are hummed by music-lovers even today. Tumko Dekha Toh Yeh Khayaal Aaya This one is an evergreen classic that will never lose its lustre. Jagjit Singh lent his voice to this wonderful, romantic melodious song from the 1982 film Saath Saath. The lyrics of the song were penned by Javed Akhtar while Kuldeep Singh composed the music and Jagjit Singh brought the song to life in a way that only he can. Jhuki Jhuki Si Nazar This beautiful song from the 1983 movie Arth was not just sung by the Ghazal King but also composed by him. The lyrics of this beautiful melody were written by Kaifi Azmi and Jagjit Singh sahab brought alive the poignancy of this song. Tum Itna Jo Muskura Rahe Ho Another musical gem from Arth is this song that was again composed and sang by Jagjit Singh and written by Kaifi Azmi. Be it for the song's tune or the pathos in Jagjit Singh's voice, this is still the favourite song of many people. Honthon Se Chulo Tum This song was the highlight of the 1981 movie Prem Geet. Many people may not remember the movie that gave Raj Babbar the first taste of success and stardom but definitely remember this heartfelt song sung by the one and only Jagjit Singh. Chithhi Na Koi Sandesh This fan-favourite song is from the 1998 film Dushman and is a gut-wrenching message for a loved one who has left us forever. The song was composed by Uttam Singh and Jagjit Singh, in his style, made it one for the ages. Hoshwalon Ko Khabar Kya There are very few songs that interpret falling in love in a manner as stunning as this ghazal, thanks, in no small part, to Jagjit Singh sahab. This number was for the 1999 film Sarfarosh. Composer duo Jatin-Lalit collaborated with poet Nida Fazli to come up with this ghazal with soulful lyrics and an equally enchanting tune. Jagjit Singh brought to the song his soul-stirring magic making it one of the most beautiful romantic songs ever.
