He wrote many hit songs like Do bechaare in Victoria No. 203 (1972) and Haye haye ye majboori in Roti Kapada Aur Makaan (1974). Born in Ferozepur (now in Pakistan), he moved to India after the Partition. Ek taara bole in Yaadgar (1970) was his first song for a Hindi film. Prior to this, he wrote for Punjabi films. His forte was combining shayari elements with folk music.
