Bappi Lahiri

So many distinguished members of our film fraternity like Lalita Pawar, A K Hangal and OP Nayyar faced financial hardships before they passed away. We need to look after the old and vulnerable entertainers.

In India, women are respected the most. Mothers, wives, sisters, daughters.

I am a karmayogi and I think without God's blessings no one can achieve anything in this world.

If I can do anything to help Bollywood by being in politics, I think it's worth my while.

Bappi Lahiri has a voice that alone is loud and musical enough to sway people.

I like 'Intaha ho gayi ithazar ki' from 'Sharaabi' and 'Chalte Chalte.' I like them because they are immortal.

All these years, I have never forgotten what my parents have given me, and that is why I take special pride in composing music based on ragas and used folk music in films like 'Apne Paraye.'

My parents, Aparesh and Bansari Lahiri were very famous singers from Kolkata.

Music is my soul and I can easily say, it is the secret of my youth.

Congress is a culture and I would love to be part of it.

I visit Pune quite regularly; I simply love the city.

I love Punjabi Folk.
