Kishore’s heart beat to be the mellifluent voice behind the actor. His maiden foray in front of the camera was in the film Andolan directed by Phani Mazumdar in 1951. In fact it is estimated that as many as 16 of his first 22 movies bombed at the box office. But perhaps acting was not in his blood and he was to give a string of flops. Kishore Kumar was literally coerced to don the greasepaint and act, by his older sibling Ashok Kumar. Anup, another brother too forayed into tinsel world but with not much success. His oldest brother was the consummate trouper, Ashok Kumar who essayed riveting roles that fired the imagination of millions of Indians. Kishore Da, as he was affectionately referred to, was the youngest of four siblings. His father, Kunjalal Ganguly was an estimable lawyer and mother Gouri Devi hailed from an opulent family. Kishore Kumar was born into a Bengali Brahmin family.

Thus present day Madhya Pradesh has the unique distinction of becoming the cradle to two prominent, legendary and fabled singers of Indian cinema. Lata Mangeshkar, the mellifluous singer was born on 28 September 1929, in Indore and the euphonious songster Kishore Kumar arrived on 4 August that very year in Khandwa. It was a momentous decision for Indians to strive for freedom and become suzerains by their volition and their own right.Īmidst all this cacophony, there were strains of harmony and symphony.
