As comments on Musing 1087 about M Y Mohan. my cousi from Vancouver pointed out that he had heard a song by him in the sixties. The brilliant sleuthing by Ambrish Sundaram revealed two items.

1. He sang on AIR in July 1951.

2. He apparently added Saigal to his name and used to sing in the meetings of Meher Baba in the sixties-seventies.

Finally, I remembered that I have with the me the comprehensive work on NON-Film Hindi Songs by Raj Dogra. I looked it up. Sure enough, there are 78 rpm records by him!

Only God, PN Arora and Helen know for sure the nature of their relationship. Helen stated that he was merely her secretary/manager. PN Arora produced 700 letter from her to him and gave the story to Cine Blitz.
