Bappi Lahiri

I still remember how we, all in the family, used to sit in front of the radio to listen to Ameen Sayani's programme of top 10 songs 'Binaka Geetmala' in which I was constantly ranked number one for many weeks. ”

Ever since my childhood days in Kolkata, where I was born, I had seen my father interacting with Congressmen. ”

I have always got gold from my family. ”

I am an extremely religious and spiritual person. ”

No human being, or party can defeat me. ”

My father Apresh Lahiri and mother Bansari Lahiri were great composers of their time. ”

I have got gold secure all the time so income tax people will not be able to take the gold from my neck! ”

Unlike others, I wear my gold at all times. That's why it's become my image and people call me the Gold Man. ”

The period between 1980 and 1995 was my era. ”

I told my father that I was not interested in studies. I was more interested in tabla, piano and other instruments. My father told me to complete school and then I could do music full-time. ”
