The uncrowned king of Indian ghazal singing Jagjit Singh passed away this morning at around 8 am in Mumbai's Lilawati Hospital. He was 70 years old. Jagjit Singh suffered a brain haemorrhage on September 23 and had undergone a lifesaving surgery, but was in a critical condition since then. Born on February 8, 1941, Jagjit Singh gained acclaim together with his wife, Chitra Singh in the Seventies and Eighties as the first ever successful duo act (husband-wife) in the history of recorded Indian music.

  • shocking

  • Alwidaa, Jagjeet Singh, Ji bhar ke royengey tumhein! Phir kahaan andaaz waisaa phir ghazal mein woh kasak? Ab na dil mein waisi raahat aayegi hum ko kabhi! Woh lapaktaa shola e aawaaz woh dhun ki gamak!

  • check this people. Beautiful voice. He sang this for jagjit.

  • Jagjit Ji has just kicked his frame as we all will eventually. And yet in doing so, he will always remain in every cell of our being with his hauntingly touching melodies. In that respect, he is an immortal whose music spans the human era for its origins are not from this earthly plane.

  • I'm really very upset about his death. It's so hard to believe that he is no longer with us. He was one of the greatest gazal singers. May his soul rest in peace.

  • Even though he was a marvellous singer but his personal life was very tense....He lost his only son in an accident and his wife Chitra never sang again....then he adopted a girl from Chitra's family side and she died too.......Imagine the intense pain he must be going through.....His close friends say that he was going through a lot of mental agony thats why he got the haemorrage....

  • We miss you the King of ghazal Jagjit Singh.

    fardin from Afghanistan

  • THE GOD OF GHAZAL TRADITION...MAY GOD BLESS HIS GREAT SOUL...

  • ohhhh u missed so much
