Maybe Sameer lets IR backseat drive the Hindi lyrics too !!!!
(apparently I am told IR comes up with the starting line of hindi songs too)

IR and Hindi! Kiru, i dont believe that theory !

Yes, but I think it just happened in one song. If I am not wrong it was told by some director while praising IR's involvement towards composing for a situation.

thanks,

I am no scholar in Hindi, but having listened to some the best lyricists in Hindi (and Urdu) so far, i feel Sameer is absolutely a pathetic choice.
Gulzar and Javed Akhtar are the only two lyricists who are carrying the legacy of 'Good lyrics'. Prasoon Joshi is new and he is showing his own new but good style of writing. Thanks for pointing out that he wrote 'Kaun Dagar'.
Swanand Kirkire is also good.

Sameer's work is pedestrain. It is just that IR doesnt know Hindi (meaning, the essence of the language, the sensibilities and the poetry that can come out it, rather than plain knowing the talkative aspect of the language) that he chooses Sameer. Thats quite sad. Cheeni Kum did have OK lyrics, but i think if Gulzar or Javed Akhtar wrote them, they would have done super justice. Frankly, i did not find Cheeni Kum lyrics to be great, they were just not-bad and just there.

Does IR choose the lyricists in Hindi? Did he ever work with Gulzar on any film besides Sadma?
