Udit Narayan is one of the most popular singers in the history of the Indian music industry. The iconic singer is also renowned by the title of ‘Melody King’ across the country, courtesy of his so many timeless songs. Udit Narayan was born on December 1, 1955, in Bihar’s Baisi village in Supaul district. While his father, Harekrishna Jha was a farmer, his mother, Bhuvneshwari Devi, was a folk singer.
It was Udit Narayan’s mother, who encouraged him to make his career in singing, as she had seen her son’s inclination towards music right from an early age. The singer made his singing debut in Bollywood back in 1980 with the song, Mil gaya, Mil gaya, in the film, Unees Bees. Since then, he has sung in more than 11 different languages. From winning four National Film Awards to receiving the prestigious Padma Shri and Padma Bhushan awards, Udit has engraved his status as one of the greatest Indian singers ever.
