Biography

Mahendra Kapoor, a prominent playback singer during the Golden Age of Hindi cinema, rose to fame with hits like "Chalo Ek Baar Chalo" and "Neele Gagan Ke Taale." Born in Amritsar, India on January 9, 1934, Kapoor's versatile talent spanned multiple Indian languages, and his rendition of "Mere Desh Ki Dharthi" in the film Upkaar earned him accolades and solidified his status as a celebrated singer. Throughout his five-decade career, Kapoor collaborated with various directors but found significant success alongside filmmaker B.R. Chopra, contributing to films like Dhool Ka Phool and Waqt.

Despite battling health issues in his later years, Kapoor continued his musical pursuits, performing in regional films and embarking on live tours with his son Rohan. He received prestigious awards for his contributions to Bollywood, including the Padmashri Award and the Lata Mangeshkar Award. Sadly, Kapoor passed away in his sleep on September 27, 2008, leaving behind a lasting legacy in Indian music and cinema.
