Worked with

Ghulami (1985)
Gulzar wrote Ghulami's lyrics, including Zeehale Muskin - built on Amir Khusrau's thirteenth-century macaronic verse, a line of Persian followed by a line of Braj Bhasha. It became a hit in 1985.
Kinara (1977)
Gulzar directed Kinara, Meera and Angoor in six years - a romance built on a concealment, the life of a sixteenth-century devotional poet, and a Shakespeare farce. Very few directors have that range and almost none of them also wrote the songs.
Koshish (1972)
The first film Gulzar directed - a deaf and mute couple, almost nothing spoken, from a writer whose reputation is entirely words.
