Several books have been written on the legendary music composer and singer Sachin Dev Burman. He also wrote an autobiography, Sargamer Nikhad, in Bengali. Pannalal Roy wrote a biography in Bengali called Sachin Karta in 2005. H.Q. Chowdhury’s Incomparable Sachin Dev Burman is reportedly a very good biography. The Film Society of Jodhpur, with the support of Sangeet Natak Akademi, Delhi, brought out Smarika, a publication to coincide with its six-day-long Smriti Samaroh on Sachin Dev Burman in April 2009. The brochure, edited by Mohan Swaroop Maheshwari, is a brilliant collection of writings on S.D. Burman, filmography, list of songs and their lyrics for both Bengali and Hindi films.
