He gave his voice to songs in multiple Indian languages like Bengali, Marathi, Gujarati, Bhojpuri, and many more. He has won several awards and recognitions.
Though Kishore Kumar left at a very young age, he is still believed to be alive with his tracks. His songs will keep him among us forever without getting old. There was also an award by Madhya Pradesh government in his honor for the contribution to the cinema.
