Bhupinder Singh (born April 8, 1939 New Delhi) is an Indian musician, chiefly a Ghazal singer and Bollywood playback singer. Bhupinder's father Natha Singh was a trained vocalist and his early music teacher.

Early in his career, Bhupinder performed on All India Radio, Delhi. He was also attached to the Delhi Doordarshan center, Delhi. He learnt guitar and violin. In 1964, music director Madan Mohan heard him over AIR, and called him to Bombay. He gave him a chance to sing the song Hoke Majboor Mujhe Usne Bulaya Hoga with Mohammad Rafi in Chetan Anand's Haqeeqat....

In the mid-1980s, Bhupinder married a Bangladeshi singer Mitali and moved away from playback singing. Together, they gave several successful performances at ghazal concerts and live performances......................

Runa Laila (Bengali: রুনা লায়লা (born 17 November 1952) is a playback singer of the subcontinent who lives in Bangladesh. She is effective in Ghazals also.

She made a hit pair with famous singer Ahmed Rushdi after replacing Mala. She also has done numerous playbacks for movies in Bangladesh, India and Pakistani film industries during late 60s,70s and early 80's. Her best known number is Dama Dam Mast Qalandar, a song covered by many artists.

Runa Laila was born in a middle class family on November 17, 1952, in Sylhet, Bangladesh. Her father was from Rajshahi, Bangladesh. A music ustad would visit the family home, to teach classical music to Runa's elder sister Dina Laila. As younger siblings are wont to do, Runa too would sit down and pick it up effortlessly. But the energetic youngster's heart was in dance, and she was enrolled in a school where she learnt Kathak, Bharatanatyam, and Kathakali. Her early music training was done when her family lived in Karachi, Pakistan, Federal B area in 1960. Ustad Qader, later known as Piya Rang, was her teacher.

Runa Laila was a bright youngster brought up in the typical Bengali mould, where the arts, like other fine things of life, were nurtured with just as much enthusiasm as to keep them buzzing happily within the family circle. Besides her classical training, she recalls gratefully the influence of Manzur Hussain on her career, since, instead of pampering her as a child, he told her that while her voice was good, it had certain flaws he needed her to work on. In those days, recording a song meant meeting a crowd of people in the studio, singing along with the orchestra and, should anyone make a mistake, starting over again from the beginning.
She started learning classical music at a very early age and received vigorous training from Ustad Habibiddin Khan. She made her first public debut as a singer at the age of six and cut her first disc for a Pakistani film called "Jugnu" at the age of twelve. She had a great inspiration from famous playback singer Ahmed Rushdi as she followed his way of expressing emotions during singing and also made a hit pair with him later on............................

She sang playback for many movies in Bangladesh and India and, before the independence of Bangladesh, in Pakistan. She is known for her songs "Dama Dam Mast Qalandar" and "Mera Babu Chhail Chhabeela Main to Nachoongigi", which have been sung by other artists.
She made a sensational entry into the Hindi filmdom with Ek Se Badkar Ek in 1974. Music lovers all over India were swinging to the rhythmic beat of Dama Dam Mast Qalander.
Her songs in "Gharonda", which was released later, also did well with the audience. After that she withdrew from Mumbai but is still popular in India. Some of the music directors she has worked with are Jaidev, Kalyanji Anandji and Bappi Lahiri.
She is equally popular in the Bengali pop music space with songs like "Sadher Lau Banailo Morey", "Shilpi ami, tomaderi gan shonabo" and "Bondhu Tin Din Tor Barite Gelam".

She married thrice and has a daughter named Tani Laila.
