Cinemaazi wishes Shabbir Kumar a very Happy Birthday!
26 Oct 1954
Music director Usha Khanna gave Shabbir Kumar a break in the film Tajurba (1981). Shabbir got a major break, when the director Manmohan Desai, who was looking for a Mohammed Rafi substitute, noticed him and recommended him to music director duo Laxmikant–Pyarelal. Within a few days, the music directors gave Shabbir Kumar songs in the film Coolie, which was released in 1983. Shabbir's first released film with Laxmikant–Pyarelal was Main Intequam Loonga (1982).
