Pancham pizzazz (By Narendra Kusnur, Mid-Day):

"This is what Bhupinder has to say about RD:

Pancham was one of the few music directors who appreciated everybody’s ideas. If one of the musicians thought of something interesting, he would acknowledge it. He would know our strengths, and give us specific parts to work on. At the same time, he would have fun while working with the musicians.

There was a certain understanding that he shared with the other team-members, whether it was me or Manohari Singh or Marutirao Keer or Basu Chakraborty or Kersi Lord or anybody else. In the studio, we all knew what was at the back of his mind while doing a song. He would have four or five or six rehearsals, and then begin recording."
