Renowned melody-maker O.P. Nayyar died of cardiac arrest on Sunday. He was 81. The great composer entertained the music lovers with his peppy numbers for decades. Some of his evergreen numbers are "Mera naam Chin Chin Choo", "Ek pardesi mera dil le gaya", "Deewana hua badal", "Isharon isharon mein" and "Balma khuli hawa". Not to forget the "Aaiye meherbaan..." from "Howrah Bridge". Picturised on Madhubala, the bar song is an all-time favourite among all age groups till date.

Born as Om Prakash Nayyar Jan 16, 1926 in Lahore, he started his career as an assistant with the All India Radio in Jalandhar, Punjab. Later his love for music forced him to shift base to Mumbai, where he got his first break in "Kaneez" (1949), followed by "Aasman" (1952). However, he made it big with Guru Dutt's "Aar Paar" (1954) and since then there was no looking back for the composer. Nayyar formed a winning pair with Dutt and churned out hits like "Mr. & Mrs. '55" and "C.I.D".
