About me / Bio:
Bappi Lahiri was born in Kolkata, India on 27 November 1952. He was the only child of Aparesh Lahiri and Bansuri Lahiri, both were Bengali singers and musicians in classical music and Shyama Sangeet. He was also the nephew of the legendary singer Kishore Kumar. He began to play tabla at the age of 3 and received his music training from his parents and other eminent musicians. He was influenced by American rockstar Elvis Presley and decided to create his own signature style of wearing gold jewellery and velvet clothes. He came to Mumbai when he was 19 and received his first opportunity in a Bengali film, Daadu (1974). He composed music for his first Hindi film, Nanha Shikari (1973) and sang his first Hindi song, Tu Hi Mera Chanda. He rose to fame with his music for the film Zakhmee (1975) and became known as the pioneer of disco beats in India.

He also sang some of his own compositions and collaborated with many singers, such as Kishore Kumar, Mohammed Rafi, Lata Mangeshkar, Asha Bhosle, Usha Uthup, and others. He also composed music for Bengali, Telugu, and Kannada films and delivered major box office successes. He was recognised by Guinness World Records for recording more than 180 songs in one year in 1986.
