“The very first thing that involves my thoughts once I consider him is his behaviour. He was a jovial and soft-spoken individual and all the time wore a smile on his face. His phrases have been all the time candy and I’ve by no means seen him lose his mood. He was a unbelievable human being. His demise is unquestionably an enormous loss for the business. All we are able to do is pray, so that his soul rests in peace.
“He would deal with me as Kumar ji. While instructing a tune, he would all the time make it straightforward for the singer. If I ever mentioned I discovered part of a tune tough, he would encourage me saying, ‘give it a attempt, I’m right here, don’t be concerned and I’m assured you are able to do this, tum gaa loge’. He was very fashionable amongst singers owing to his cordial behaviour.
“He would always encourage singers and was very humble in his approach. I still remember the happy expression on his face after a recording was completed. Today, I feel extremely sad to think that he is no more. His contribution to the industry is huge! He has gifted such amazing songs and helped so many singers to grow.”
