He earned a Master of Commerce degree at the Banaras Hindu University in Varanasi, and started a new position as a bank officer at the Central Bank of India.[3] However, a few days after joining, he left the job because he "knew the bank was not my world".[4] To pursue a career as a lyricist, he moved to Mumbai in 1980.[4]

In the following decades he emerged as a leading lyricist in Bollywood, writing the lyrics for over 500 Hindi films (4,000 songs).[3][4][5]
