He breathed his last at Cure Care Hospital in Dhaka, Bangladesh on Saturday morning.Over a career the spanned several decades, the 79-year-old acted as music composer for numerous Urdu and Bengali films. With his passing, an entire era that saw quality film music take the front seat in Pakistani cinema of yesteryears has ended.
