Digital Desk: Kishore Kumar is a singer, a legend, and a legend's singer. No other singer is as widely celebrated or loved across generations as he is; his songs are woven into our lives and have become an inseparable part of them. His voice touches your heart and lingers in your mind long after you've heard it.

Kishore Da was an eccentric genius, a man who despised acting and did everything he could to annoy the producers while still nailing every frame in every romantic comedy he was a part of. He was not a trained singer, but he managed to make songs like 'Mere Naina Sawan Bhado' his own and memorable (Of course with the help of Legendary Lata Mangeshkar as he listened to her version before recording his own.)

Imagine playing antakshri without 'Mere Sapno Ki Rani' or 'Roop Tera Mastana,' your love story without a dash of Kishore Da, or reflecting on your life without 'Zindagi Ke Safar Mein.' Kishore Kumar is music to his ardent fans, and music is Kishore Kumar. The singer has hundreds of popular and beautiful songs that are on the playlists of many music fans. Many of his soulful songs deserve to be heard more than they are. Songs that were melodious, beautiful, and heartfelt but did not receive the recognition they deserved.

On the occasion of Kishore Kumar's birth anniversary, we pay tribute to him with these underappreciated songs. These songs feature heartfelt lyrics, soulful music, and, of course, Kishore Kumar's voice. Go immerse yourself in the beauty and genius of Kishore Kumar's voice. You'll be able to thank us later!

1.Maine Tumse Kuch Nahi Maanga (Katha)

Music by Raj Kamal and beautiful lyrics by Indu Jain, this song from the 1983 film ‘Katha’ has Kishore Kumar magic all over it.

2. Aisi Haseen Chandni (Dard)

Music maestro Khayyam gave the music for this track and Kishore Kumar with his voice made it a treat to our ears.

3. Baad Muddat Ke Hum Tum Mile (Kaash)

The song from the film 'Dard,' starring Jackie Shroff and Dimple Kapadia, bears the imprint of music director Rajesh Roshan, and Kishore Da's voice has a melancholy that just echoes in your heart.

4. Kabhi Palkon Pe Aasoon (Harjaae)

Kishore Kumar gives voice to Nida Fazli's beautiful lyrics and RD Burman's music in the song that emphasises love for life.

5. Khoobsurat Haseena (Mr X In Bombay)

Is the song familiar to you? You've probably heard the inspired version of the song - 'Ae Mere Humsafar' from Baazigar. Is there anyone who can sing romantic songs like Kishore Kumar? You already know the answer!

6. Raah Pe Rehte Hain Yaadon Pe Basar Karte (Namkeen)

The best musical combination ever is Gulzar's lyrics, RD Burman's music, and Kishore Kumar's voice. Though the song is not as well-known as the others on the list, it deserved a lot more attention. The song will undoubtedly awaken your inner nomad.

7. Koi Hota Jisko Apna (Mere Apne)

Another work by three musical geniuses: Gulzar, Salil Choudhary, and Kishore Kumar. This song from the 1971 film 'Mere Apne' perfectly summarises the film. The song is well-known among Kishore Kumar's ardent fans, but it deserves a permanent spot on the best of Kishore Kumar playlist.
