MUMBAI: All India Radio is preparing for daylong tributes to Farooque Shaikh on his birth anniversary March 25. The actor, who was born this day in Vadodara in 1948, would have turned 66 on Tuesday.

FM Rainbow Mumbai is recording an hour-long memorial for its 7-8pm 'Humsafar' programme on Tuesday. Channel head Anita Kumar said, "This programme is exclusive to Mumbai. Our Delhi counterpart has a show named "Born To Be Remembered" which will broadcast from 11.30am-12pm. I am trying to speak to them for a similar tribute to Farooque Shaikh."

At 10.05pm, FM Gold Mumbai will air a 55-minute dedication under the title "Yaadon Ke Jharokhe Se". "We commonly devise tributes to artistes on their birth and death anniversaries but the kind of respect that Farooque Shaikh commands is unique by any standards. He certainly deserves a proper dedication. We can easily produce an hour of programming about him with the amount of information that is available in our studios," said channel head Kanchan Prakash Sangeet.

Interestingly, Vividh Bharati with its extensive nationwide reach over medium wave transmitter, has doubled its Farooque Shaikh tribute from an hour to two since speaking to TOI last week.

Producer Ramesh Gokhale is assembling a life sketch of the artist for March 25 morning special titled "Aaj Ke Fankaar". The show is aired at 9.30am. It comprises a montage of archival interviews interspersed with the artiste's film songs.

At 1.00pm the channel will broadcast Shaikh Sahab's "Favourite Five" songs. He had selected "Pyar mujhse jo kiya tumne", "Aaja ri aa nindiya tu aa", "Dekh lo aaj humko ji bharke", "Phir na kije meri gustakh nigahi ka gila" and "Kaun aaya mere man ke dware". Interviewer Nimmi Mishra, who has since retired, played "Yeh tera ghar yeh mera ghar" as the host's choice of song.

Listeners who are unable to follow these two programmes by day can avail of a repeat broadcast from 9.00-10.00pm.

Shaikh had visited the Gorai studios of Vividh Bharati in 2011 and done extensive recordings.

Incidentally, the channel last aired his "Favourite Five" on its Sunday special on December 15, 2013. Shaikh Sahab passed away 13 days later on December 28.
