Bollywood playback singer Udit Narayan, renowned for his versatility and ability to sing in different languages, including Tamil, Bengali, Telugu and Kannada, will perform in Singapore for the first time.
The live concert will be held at the Star Theatre on 23 October 2024.
Udit is the voice of many iconic Bollywood stars such as Shah Rukh Khan, Aamir Khan and Amitabh Bachchan. Over the past three decades, he has sung more than 25,000 songs in more than 36 languages, earning him 22.3 million listeners on Spotify and an array of prestigious awards.
His rise to fame began in the 1980s with the song “Papa Kehte Hain,” which earned him his first Filmfare Award. His performance on the soundtrack of “Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak” further cemented his status in Bollywood, leading to massive sales and widespread acclaim.
Udit continued to be a favourite voice for music directors and actors alike, collaborating with legendary musicians such as Anu Malik, Jatin Lalit, A.R. Rahman, Rajesh Roshan and Shankar Mahadevan.
His voice has graced the films of renowned directors Yash Chopra, Sanjay Leela Bhansali and Karan Johar.
With 21 of his tracks featured in the BBC’s Top 40 Bollywood Soundtracks of All Time, Udit is celebrated as the King of Melody.
His debut song “Mil Gaya” was featured in the 1980 film “Unees-Bees”.
Born to a Nepalese father Harekrishna Jha and Indian mother Bhuvaneshwari Jha in Bihar in 1955, Udit made his Bollywood debut at the age of 25 in 1980 when his voice was noticed by the music director Rajesh Roshan.
Roshan asked him to sing for the film “Unees Bees”. The singer never looked back and went on to give major hits in the 1990s and 2000s.
Some of them include “Papa Kehte Hai”, “Pehla Nasha”, “Jaadu Teri Nazar”, “Tu Cheez Badi Hai Mast Mast”, “Kuch Kuch Hota Hai”, “Chand Chupa Badal Mein”, “Kaho Naa Pyaar Hai” and “Main Nikla Gaddi Leke”, which have been filmed on the biggest superstars – Aamir Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan, Akshay Kumar, Sunny Deol and Hrithik Roshan.
He has since been a consistent and beloved presence in Bollywood playback singing, winning Filmfare Awards across three decades.
Udit has also won four National Film Awards, including three for Best Male Playback Singer – for the 2001 songs “Mitwa” in “Lagaan” and “Jaane Kyun in Dil Chahta Hai”, for the 2002 song “Chhote Chhote Sapne” in “Zindagi Khoobsoorat Hai” and for the 2004 song “Yeh Taara Woh Taara” in “Swades”.
His fourth National Film Award came as a producer for backing the 2005 film “Kab Hoi Gawna Hamar”, which was honoured as the Best Feature Film in Bhojpuri.
