Anand Bakshi who wrote more than 4500 lyrics during his long career of 40 years, out of which at least 3000 songs were superhits, would now be a part of a comprehensive documentary that his close friend and creative collaborator Subhash Ghai will make. Research on the man and poet whose longevity defies all definition, has already begun. Says Ghai, "At the moment I am in the process of putting together the pieces of Bakshi Saab's life. But yes, I don't want to make a dry boring staccato documentary that no one would watch. This was a man who wrote some of the most entertaining songs for our films. I want the documentary on Bakshi Saab to be seen by generations that have not grown up with Bakshi's Saab's words in the mouth, as we have." Ghai wants to humanize Bakshi in the documentary. "I've put together a team of like-minded Bakshi fans.
