Very Good Composer and a Great musician...
Personally, OST Music for "Sardari Begum" was quite memorable, along with instrumental series inspired by Elements in Times Music.
Om Shanti

Oh! A big name in the music of parallel cinema, Doordarshan and ambient fusion. He had his own style and his music sounds distinctively different from the rest. Shraddhanjali.
