His song Bahar dekh ke dil aur bekarar hua, a duet with Sudha Malhotra in Shikar (1955), became immensely popular with the film-going audience. His solo Woh saamne aaye mere in the same film is also one of his best-known songs.
With Baadal (1985), Moti Sagar tried his hand at production as well. The previous year, he had written and directed the film Prerana (1984). He passed away on 15 March 1999 in Mumbai.
