He Received [[Filmfare Marathi Lifetime Achievement Award]] For His Contribution in Marathi Cinema.<ref>{{Cite web |url=http://dnasyndication.com/dna/article/DNPUN11129 |title=Padma Shri for Hridaynath Mangeshkar - DNA - English News & Features - Top News - dnasyndication.com< |access-date=2 September 2015 |archive-date=29 June 2018 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180629212830/http://dnasyndication.com/dna/article/DNPUN11129 |url-status=dead }}</ref>

==Career==

Hridaynath debuted his music career in 1955 with the [[Marathi language|Marathi]] film ''Akash Ganga''. Since then, he has composed for various Marathi films such as ''[[Sansar (1971 film)|Sansar]], [[Chaani]],  Ha Khel Savalyancha, Janaki, [[Jait Re Jait]], [[Umbartha]]'' and ''Nivdung'' and a few [[Bollywood]] films; the most notable among them being ''[[Subah]]'', ''[[Lekin...]]'' and ''[[Maya Memsaab]]''.<ref name="Padma"/>

He has been very selective with his work. He has composed songs in [[Marathi language|Marathi]] and [[Hindi]]. His songs often have complex meters and require singers of great range and depth for enjoyable renditions. His composition of [[Vinayak Damodar Savarkar]]'s poem ''[[Saagara Pran Talamalala]]'' is a case in point. His 1982 album ''Dnyaneshwar Mauli'', featuring compositions from [[Jñāneśvar]], one of the most famous poets in [[Marathi literature]], set the standard for modern devotional music in Marathi.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.beaninspirer.com/pandit-hridaynath-mangeshkar-another-gem-mangeshkar-family/|title=Pandit Hridaynath Mangeshkar: Another Gem from the Mangeshkar Family|date=26 October 2017|website=Beaninspirer.com|access-date=14 February 2022}}</ref>

He also composed music for Doordarshan musical drama ''[[Phoolwanti (TV Series)|Phoolwanti]]''.

He has also composed folk songs. Staying true to the spirit, his ''[[Koli Geet|Koli Geets]]'' (fishermen songs) reflect the traditional rhythms of the fishermen of [[Konkan]]. His music to the critically acclaimed movie ''[[Jait Re Jait]]'' is another example of his prowess in this genre. One of his most popular works is the composition for the Marathi film ''[[Nivdung]]''.{{citation needed|date=September 2015}} 

At one point, Hridaynath was a student of [[Amir Khan (singer)|Ustad Amir Khan]]; however, he feels that his guru is not as timeless as his sister Lata.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.themusicmagazine.com/meerasoorkabeera.html|title=Welcome themusicmagazine.com|website=Themusicmagazine.com|access-date=14 February 2022}}</ref>

He has been the recipient of several awards throughout his career, such as the prestigious [[National Film Awards|National Award]] at the hands of the [[President of India]], the [[List of awards received by Lata Mangeshkar#Lata Mangeshkar Award|Lata Mangeshkar Award]] of Maharashtra state, and seven Maharashtra State Awards for Best Vocalist and Music Director/Composer.

He was awarded the title [[pandit]] by the people of Maharashtra at the hands of [[Bhimsen Joshi]] and [[Jasraj]]. The [[Shankaracharya]] has conferred upon him the title ''Bhaav Gandharva''.

He was awarded [[Padma Shri]] by the [[Government of India]] in 2009.

Some of his most memorable Hindi film scores are ''Harishchandra Taramati'', ''Prarthana'',  ''[[Chakra]]'', ''[[Lekin...]]'', ''[[Maya Memsaab]]'', ''[[Lal Salam (1990 film)|Lal Salaam]]'', [[Yash Chopra]]'s ''[[Mashaal]]'', ''[[Dhanwan (1981 film)|Dhanwan]]'' and ''[[Chaani]]'', to name a few.

He is also the first Indian composer to compose and release two entire albums featuring the poems and songs of the poet-saint [[Meera]], titled ''Chala Vahi Des'' and ''Meera Bhajans''. He has recently also composed and released an album titled ''Meera Soor Kabeera'', featuring the works of Meera, [[Kabir]] and [[Surdas]]. He produced an album featuring the [[ghazal]]s of [[Ghalib]], titled ''Ghalib'' and sung by [[Lata Mangeshkar]]. His collaborations with noted Marathi poets such as Shanta Shelke and Suresh Bhat have produced many Marathi classic songs of unmatched popularity.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/entertainment/hindi/bollywood/news/The-Gen-Y-Mangeshkar/etarticleshow/4600493.cms?referral=PM|title=The Gen y Mangeshkar - Times of India|website=[[The Times of India]]}}</ref>

He joined the political party [[Shiv Sena (1966–2022)|Shiv Sena]] in 2009.<ref>{{cite news | url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/India-news/Mumbai/Hridaynath-Mangeshkar-joins-Shiv-Sena/Article1-459913.aspx | title=Hridaynath Mangeshkar joins Shiv Sena | newspaper=[[Hindustan Times]] | date=30 September 2009 | access-date=29 November 2012 | url-status=dead | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130613183203/http://www.hindustantimes.com/India-news/Mumbai/Hridaynath-Mangeshkar-joins-Shiv-Sena/Article1-459913.aspx | archive-date=13 June 2013 | df=dmy-all }}</ref>
