Bappi Lahiri was born in 1952

Bappi Lahiri, dubbed "Disco King" in India, was born in 1952 in Calcutta, West Bengal, to a family with a long history in classical music. At the age of 19, he began his profession as a music director. Aparesh Lahiri, his father, was a well-known Bengali vocalist, and Bansari Lahiri, his mother, was a musician and singer who were well-versed in classical music and Shyama Sangeet.

Bhankas from Baaghi 3 was his last song

Dadu (1972), a Bengali film, gave him his first opportunity to sing, and Nanha Shikari, a Hindi film, gave him his first opportunity to write music (1973). Tahir Hussain's Hindi film Zakhmee (1975), for which he wrote music and made a name as a playback vocalist, was the film that launched him into Bollywood. The song Bhankas from Baaghi 3 was the last song in Bollywood in 2020.
