<p>&nbsp;</p><p>No one understood India and its diversity as much as Piyush Pandey. The adman, often credited for revolutionising Indian advertisement, wrote the iconic song Mile Sur Mera Tumhara, much before he became the face of the advertising industry. &nbsp;The song, which was first released in 1988, was composed by Pandit Bhimsen Joshi, who also featured in the opening shot of the music video. Pandey, back then a 30-something old writer and an account manager of advertising agency Ogilvy and Mather India, captured the beauty of India’s diverse ethnicity and culture into a song which remains iconic nearly four decades on.
