The impact India's nightingale Lata Mangeshkar left on the world of music can be neither forgotten, nor replaced. She had an illustrious career spanning over seven decades, starting from her first break in the 1948 film, 'Majboor', with the song 'Dil Mera Toda, Mujhe Kahin Ka Na Chhora', with lyrics by Nazim Panipati. It can never be possible to pick and choose which songs were her best, as the versatility and emotions that she brought in with each and every song was unmatched. Though Lata Mangeshkar passed away on February 6 after suffering a multi-organ failure, she will always stay alive in our hearts with her soulful songs such as 'Ajeeb Dastan Hai Ye', 'Ae Mere Watan Ke Logo', 'Lukka Chuppi' and 'Tere Liye' among others. World Music Day 2022: From KK to Lata Mangeshkar, Remembering Famous Musicians We Lost This Year!

At the young age of 19, Bappi Lahiri started his career as a composer with the Bengali film, 'Daadu'. The first Hindi film for which he composed music was Nanha Shikari. He's one of those singers who introduced India to Disco and created melodies that became chartbusters during his industrious career. His style was unique in mixing electronic sounds with Indian melodies and he created something magical with Hindi vocalists across the board. His songs especially 'Intehaa Ho Gayi Intezaar Ki', 'Taki Taki', 'Yaar Bina Chain Kahan Re' and 'Yaad Aa Raha Hai' still feel like a breath of fresh air.

He died due to Obstructive Sleep Apnea in Mumbai at the age of 69 on February 15.
